Psalms Capítulo 48

Ps 48:1-14.
繁體中文
Original en inglés
Ps 48:1-14.
This is a spirited Psalm and song (compare
Ps 30:1),
having probably been suggested by the same occasion as the foregoing. It sets forth the privileges and blessings of God's spiritual dominion as the terror of the wicked and joy of the righteous.
1. to be praised--always: it is an epithet, as in
Ps 18:3.
mountain of his holiness--His Church (compare
Isa 2:2, 3; 25:6, 7, 10);
the sanctuary was erected first on Mount Zion, then (as the temple) on Moriah; hence the figure.

2, 3. 處所——直譯為「高升」。
...的喜樂等——喜樂的源頭。
北方的極處——詩意地指高舉、崇高、卓越，因古人相信北方為地的最高處（參
賽 14:13）。
Original en inglés
2, 3. situation--literally, "elevation."
joy of, &c.--source of joy.
sides of the north--poetically for eminent, lofty, distinguished, as the ancients believed the north to be the highest part of the earth (compare
Isa 14:13).

3. 宮殿——按字面作「堡壘」。
避難所——
（Ps 9:10; 18:3）。
他如此在其中被人認識，因為它們享受他的同在。

refuge--
(Ps 9:10; 18:3).
He was so known in them because they enjoyed His presence.
4
Sin título
繁體中文
4-6. 因為——說明緣由。雖然諸王（也許是摩押與亞捫，參
Ps 83:3-5）
聯合，但對神與百姓同在的確信——由先知所賜的不尋常勇氣
（參
2Ch 20:12-20）
所彰顯——抓住他們的心；他們在突如其來的極度驚惶中，驚訝地逃跑了。
Original en inglés
4-6. For--The reason is given. Though the kings (perhaps of Moab and Ammon, compare
Ps 83:3-5)
combined, a conviction of God's presence with His people, evinced by the unusual courage with which the prophets (compare
2Ch 20:12-20)
had inspired them, seized on their minds, and smitten with sudden and intense alarm, they fled astonished.

Sin título

7. 他施的船隻——從事遠洋獲利豐厚的貿易，最為貴重。這話可說明神對一切物質媒介的掌控，無論是否指其字面的毀滅。
Original en inglés
7. ships of Tarshish--as engaged in a distant and lucrative trade, the most valuable. The phrase may illustrate God's control over all material agencies, whether their literal destruction be meant or not.
8
Sin título
繁體中文
8. 這眼前的經歷，使他確信神對其教會所施的那持續不斷的看顧。

9. 想念——按字面作「比較」，或考量先前的作為。
在……殿中——在莊嚴的敬拜中（參
2Ch 20:28）。
Original en inglés
9. thought of--literally, "compared," or considered, in respect of former dealings.
in the . . . temple--in acts of solemn worship (compare
2Ch 20:28).
10
Sin título
繁體中文
10. 你的右手等——你的公義治理藉你的大能彰顯。
按……讚美——即照你所彰顯的屬性
（參
Ps 8:1; 20:1-7），
既配得讚美，各處便都當如此。
Original en inglés
10. According . . . praise--that is, As Thy perfections manifested (compare
Ps 8:1; 20:1-7),
demand praise, it shall be given, everywhere.
thy right hand, &c.--Thy righteous government is displayed by Thy power.
11
Sin título
繁體中文

判斷——即公正治理的裁決與作為。
Original en inglés
11. the daughters, &c.--the small towns, or the people, with the chief city, or rulers of the Church.

12
Sin título
繁體中文
12-14. 呼籲人察看錫安，即教會，如堅固之城，乃為暗示「我們的神保護祂的羊群何等穩妥」。這穩妥是永遠的，其憑據乃是祂一生之久的引導。
Original en inglés
12-14. The call to survey Zion, or the Church, as a fortified city, is designed to suggest "how well our God secures His fold." This security is perpetual, and its pledge is His guidance through this life.
Ps 48:1-14.
這是一篇充滿活力的詩歌（參
Ps 30:1），
其緣由可能與前篇相同。它論述神屬靈治理的特權與福分，之於惡人是恐怖，之於義人是喜樂。
1. 為大——即永遠如此：這是一個屬性描述，如
Ps 18:3。
聖山——即祂的教會（參
Isa 2:2, 3; 25:6, 7, 10）；
聖所先建於錫安山，後來（作為聖殿）建於摩利亞山；故有此喻。
