Ps 51:1-19.
繁體中文
Original em inglês
Ps 51:1-19.
On the occasion, compare
2Sa 11:12.
The Psalm illustrates true repentance, in which are comprised conviction, confession, sorrow, prayer for mercy, and purposes of amendment, and it is accompanied by a lively faith.
1-4. A plea for mercy is a confession of guilt.
blot out--as from a register.
transgressions--literally, "rebellions"
(Ps 19:13; 32:1).

2. 洗滌我——真正的悔改者所求的,不僅是赦免,也是潔淨。
Original em inglês
2. Wash me--Purity as well as pardon is desired by true penitents.
3
Sem título
繁體中文
3. 因為……常在我面前——知罪先於赦免;而它既為神的恩賜,便成為求赦的依據
(2Sa 12:13; Ps 32:5; 1Jo 1:9)。
Original em inglês
3. For . . . before me--Conviction precedes forgiveness; and, as a gift of God, is a plea for it
(2Sa 12:13; Ps 32:5; 1Jo 1:9).
4
Sem título
繁體中文
4. 得罪你——主要是得罪你;而得罪人的罪既是違背神的律法,從某種意義上是惟獨得罪你。
你……審判——即他犯罪的任何辯白都被排除;作這認罪的目的,就是承認神的公義,無論判語多麼嚴厲。
Original em inglês
4. Against thee--chiefly, and as sins against others are violations of God's law, in one sense only.
that . . . judgest--that is, all palliation of his crime is excluded; it is the design in making this confession to recognize God's justice, however severe the sentence.
5
Sem título
繁體中文
5, 6. 他的罪因他本性的、與生俱來的罪惡而加重;這本性之罪與神對內心聖潔的要求相違,正如外在的罪與神對正當行為的要求相違一樣。
Original em inglês
5, 6. His guilt was aggravated by his essential, native sinfulness, which is as contrary to God's requisitions of inward purity as are outward sins to those for right conduct.
6
Sem título
繁體中文
6. 你必使等——可理解為表達神在嚴格要求之下所存的恩惠旨意;大衛本可藉此旨意遏制自己對罪的天然愛好,他沒有如此行,便加重了自己的罪。
真理……與……智慧——常用以指敬虔(參
Job 28:28; Ps 119:30)。
Original em inglês
6. thou shalt make, &c.--may be taken to express God's gracious purpose in view of His strict requisition; a purpose of which David might have availed himself as a check to his native love for sin, and, in not doing so, aggravated his guilt.
truth . . . and . . .wisdom--are terms often used for piety (compare
Job 28:28; Ps 119:30).
7
Sem título
繁體中文
7-12. 一連串求赦免與潔淨的禱告。
用牛膝草潔除——這植物在禮儀中的使用
(Ex 12:22; Nu 19:6, 18)
顯示贖罪之意在此十分突出;「潔除」指代贖的滿足
(Nu 19:17-20)。
Original em inglês
7-12. A series of prayers for forgiveness and purifying.
Purge . . . hyssop--The use of this plant in the ritual
(Ex 12:22; Nu 19:6, 18)
suggests the idea of atonement as prominent here; "purge" refers to vicarious satisfaction
(Nu 19:17-20).
8
Sem título
繁體中文
8. 求……樂——藉著赦免我,使苦情變為喜樂。
Original em inglês
8. Make . . . joy--by forgiving me, which will change distress to joy.
9
Sem título
繁體中文
9. 求你掩面等——轉眼不看。
Original em inglês
9. Hide, &c.--Turn from beholding.
10
Sem título
繁體中文
10. 造——全能的作為。
在我裏面——按字面作「給我」,或「為我」;作為禮物賜下,一顆不受罪玷污的心
(Ps 24:4; 73:1)。
更新——暗示他曾擁有它;新性情的本質原則並未失去,只是其影響被中斷
(Lu 22:32); 因為
Ps 51:11
表明他並未失去神的同在與聖靈
(1Sa 16:13), 雖然他失去了「救恩之樂」
(Ps 51:12), 他正是為這樂的恢復而求。
正直的靈——按字面作「堅定」、「穩固」的,不向試探屈服。
Original em inglês
10. Create--a work of almighty power.
in me--literally, "to me," or, "for me"; bestow as a gift, a heart free from taint of sin
(Ps 24:4; 73:1).
renew--implies that he had possessed it; the essential principle of a new nature had not been lost, but its influence interrupted
(Lu 22:32);
for
Ps 51:11
shows that he had not lost God's presence and Spirit
(1Sa 16:13),
though he had lost the "joy of his salvation"
(Ps 51:12),
for whose return he prays.
right spirit--literally, "constant," "firm," not yielding to temptation.
12
Sem título
繁體中文
12. 正直的靈——「祢的」不應補入,因「正直」原文直譯為「樂意的」,而「靈」乃大衛的靈。「求祢以樂意的靈扶持我」,意即他既以順服神律法的心志得著扶持,便能持守正道而行。
Original em inglês
12. free spirit--"thy" ought not to be supplied, for the word "free" is, literally, "willing," and "spirit" is that of David. "Let a willing spirit uphold me," that is, with a soul willingly conformed to God's law, he would be preserved in a right course of conduct.
13
Sem título
繁體中文
13. 那時——這恩典之工必生此果。
道——指護理之道與人之本分
(詩 18:21, 30;32:8;路 22:32)。
Original em inglês
13. Then--Such will be the effect of this gracious work.
ways--of providence and human duty
(Ps 18:21, 30; 32:8; Lu 22:32).
14
Sem título
繁體中文
14. 拯救——或作「釋放我」
(詩 39:8),
脫離流人血之罪
(撒下 12:9, 10;詩 5:6)。
公義——如
詩 7:17;31:1
所言。
Original em inglês
14. Deliver--or, "Free me"
(Ps 39:8)
from the guilt of murder
(2Sa 12:9, 10; Ps 5:6).
righteousness--as in
Ps 7:17; 31:1.

Original em inglês
15. open . . . lips--by removing my sense of guilt.
16
Sem título
繁體中文
16. 讚美勝於祭物(Ps 50:14),且暗含信心、悔改和愛,能使神得榮耀。在真正的悔改者心中,赦免之樂與為罪憂傷交織在一起。
Original em inglês
16. Praise is better than sacrifice
(Ps 50:14),
and implying faith, penitence, and love, glorifies God. In true penitents the joys of pardon mingle with sorrow for sin.
18
Sem título
繁體中文
18. 求你施恩等等——不要將我的罪歸到你的教會身上。
建造……城牆——即表示恩待;試比較相反的形式和意念於
Ps 89:40。
Original em inglês
18. Do good, &c.--Visit not my sin on Thy Church.
build . . . walls--is to show favor; compare
Ps 89:40,
for opposite form and idea.

(Ps 4:5;
compare
Isa 1:11-17).
Ps 51:1-19.
關於背景,參
2Sa 11:12。
本篇闡明真實的悔改——包括知罪、認罪、憂傷、求憐憫以及立志改過——並伴隨活潑的信心。
1-4. 求憐憫的懇求即是認罪。
塗抹——如從冊上塗去。
過犯——字面作「悖逆」
(Ps 19:13; 32:1)。
