Psalms Kapitel 120

Ps 120:1-7.
繁體中文
Englisches Original
Ps 120:1-7.
This is the first of fifteen Psalms (Psalms 120-134) entitled "A Song of Degrees"
(Ps 121:1
--literally, "A song for the degrees"), or ascents. It seems most probable they were designed for the use of the people when going up (compare
1Ki 12:27, 28)
to Jerusalem on the festival occasions
(De 16:16),
three times a year. David appears as the author of four, Solomon of one
(Ps 127:1),
and the other ten are anonymous, probably composed after the captivity. In this Psalm the writer acknowledges God's mercy, prays for relief from a malicious foe, whose punishment he anticipates, and then repeats his complaint.

4. 勇士的利箭——毀滅性的刑罰。
羅騰木的炭火——能長久保熱。本節可讀作對惡人的描述，但更宜讀作對他們的刑罰，作為
Ps 120:3
之問題的回答。
Englisches Original
4. Sharp arrows of the mighty--destructive inflictions.
coals of juniper--which retain heat long. This verse may be read as a description of the wicked, but better as their punishment, in reply to the question of

6, 7. 當周圍的人滿懷惡意的敵意時，他卻傾向和平。本篇作為這系列的第一篇十分貼切，與所應許敬拜神的喜樂形成對比。
Englisches Original
6, 7. While those who surrounded him were maliciously hostile, he was disposed to peace. This Psalm may well begin such a series as this, as a contrast to the promised joys of God's worship.
Ps 120:1-7.
這是十五篇詩篇（第一二〇至一三四篇）題為「上行之詩」的第一篇
(Ps 121:1
——字面作「為上行之歌」），或稱上升之詩。最可能的看法是，它們是為百姓上去（參
1Ki 12:27, 28）
耶路撒冷守節時
(De 16:16)，
即每年三次而設計使用的。大衛是其中四篇的作者，所羅門是一篇
(Ps 127:1)，
其餘十篇不具名，可能是在被擄之後寫成。在本篇中，作者承認神的憐憫，祈求從惡毒仇敵手中得拯救，預期其受罰，並重複他的哀訴。
