Ps 115:1-18.
简体中文
Original en inglés
Ps 115:1-18.
The Psalmist prays that God would vindicate His glory, which is contrasted with the vanity of idols, while the folly of their worshippers is contrasted with the trust of God's people, who are encouraged to its exercise and to unite in the praise which it occasions.
1-3. The vindication of God's mercy and faithfulness
(Ps 25:10; 36:6)
is the "glory" of His "name," which is desired to be illustrated in the deliverance of His people, as the implied mode of its manifestation. In view of the taunts of the heathen, faith in His dominion as enthroned in the heaven
(Ps 2:4; 11:4)
is avowed.

Ps 115:1-18.
诗人祈求神为自己的荣耀昭雪——这荣耀与偶像的虚妄相对照；偶像崇拜者的愚妄又与神子民的信赖相对照，后者被鼓励去操练这信赖，并一同献上由此引发的赞美。
1-3. 求神彰显其怜悯与信实（Ps 25:10; 36:6），即其“名”的“荣耀”——所渴慕的，是这荣耀借拯救其子民而得以显明，因为拯救乃是它彰显的应有方式。面对外邦人的讥诮，诗人宣告他对神那坐在天上宝座之主权的信心（Ps 2:4; 11:4）。
