英文原文
Ps 131:1-3.
This Psalm, while expressive of David's pious feelings on assuming the royal office, teaches the humble, submissive temper of a true child of God.

无标题
*2. 我真……(Surely)*等——这是一种起誓或最强断言的形式。顺服借着断奶之孩童的比喻来表达。如同孩子被母亲断奶一样,我也平息了心中的骄傲(Mt 18:3, 4;Isa 11:8; 28:9)。希伯来孩童往往到三岁才断奶。
心(soul)——可作“欲望”解,含义更为确定,不过这含义也已包含在通常的意义——“我自己”——之中。
英文原文
2. Surely, &c.--The form is that of an oath or strongest assertion. Submission is denoted by the figure of a weaned child. As the child weaned by his mother from the breast, so I still the motions of pride in me
(Mt 18:3, 4; Isa 11:8; 28:9).
Hebrew children were often not weaned till three years old.
soul--may be taken for desire, which gives a more definite sense, though one included in the idea conveyed by the usual meaning, myself.
Ps 131:1-3.
本篇既表达大卫就任王位时的敬虔感受,也教导真正神儿女那谦卑、顺服的性情。
1. 眼目高傲——是骄傲的表现(
Ps 18:27)。
重大测不透的事——原文作"行在其中"或"干预"。
