Ps 7:1-17.
英語原文
Ps 7:1-17.
Shiggaion--a plaintive song or elegy. Though obscure in details, this title seems to intimate that the occasion of this Psalm was some event in David's persecution by Saul. He prays for relief because he is innocent, and God will be glorified in his vindication. He thus passes to the celebration of God's righteous government, in defending the upright and punishing the wicked, whose malignant devices will result in their own ruin; and, confident of God's aid, he closes with rejoicing.
1, 2. Though many enemies set upon him, one is singled out as prominent, and compared to a wild beast tearing his prey to pieces (compare
1Sa 20:1; 23:23; 26:19).

4. 我若伤害了我的朋友。
是的,我救了等——这意思也好,但打断了思路,因此有人提议译作「我若抢夺了我的仇敌」——无论哪种
(比较
1Sa 24:4-17; 31:8, 11)。
英語原文
4. If I have injured my friend.
yea, I have delivered, &c.--This makes a good sense, but interrupts the course of thought, and hence it is proposed to render, "if I have spoiled my enemy"--in either case (compare
1Sa 24:4-17; 31:8, 11).

英語原文

Ps 7:1-17.
流离歌(Shiggaion)——一种哀伤之歌或挽歌。虽然细节上较为晦暗,但这一标题似乎暗示,本诗的写作背景乃是大卫受扫罗逼迫期间的某一事件。他因自己无辜而祈求拯救,神也必在他的昭雪中得着荣耀。于是他进而颂扬神公义的治理——护卫正直人、惩罚恶人,而恶人恶毒的计谋终必反害己身;他既深信神必帮助,便以欢欣作结。
