Psalms 第 7 章

1

Ps 7:1-17.

開啟正文

Ps 7:1-17.

Shiggaion——一首哀歌或輓歌。雖然細節晦澀,此題註似乎暗示本篇的緣由是大衛受掃羅迫害期間的某事件。他因無辜而祈求拯救,並因神將在他得昭雪時得榮耀。他由此轉而頌揚神公義的治理——保護正直的人,刑罰惡人,惡人的惡計必反害己身;他因確信神的幫助,以歡喜作結。

1, 2. 雖有許多仇敵攻擊他,其中一個被特別提出,比作撕裂獵物的野獸(參

1Sa 20:1; 23:23; 26:19)。

英文原文

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).

3. 我若行了這事——即「古示人的話」中所控告的罪(參

1Sa 24:9)。

英文原文

3. if I have done this--that is, the crime charged in the "words of Cush" (compare

1Sa 24:9).

4. 我若害了我的朋友。

我確曾救了等——這是通順的意思,卻打斷了思路,故有人主張譯作「我若搶奪了我的仇敵」——無論哪種情形(參

1Sa 24:4-17; 31:8, 11)。

英文原文

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).

5. 若他果真如此行,這便是後果。

我的尊榮——(參

Ps 3:3; 4:2)

——指我個人與職分的尊嚴。

英文原文

5. This is the consequence, if such has been his conduct.

mine honour--(compare

Ps 3:3; 4:2)

--my personal and official dignity.

6. 神被捲入其中,彷彿至今對他漠不關心

(Ps 3:7; 9:18)。

怒氣——最猛烈的,如洪水漫過河岸。

所命定的判斷——或作「所定的」;即公正的判決。

英文原文

6. God is involved as if hitherto careless of him

(Ps 3:7; 9:18).

rage--the most violent, like a flood rising over a river's banks.

the judgment . . . commanded--or, "ordained"; a just decision.

7. 圍繞你——如尋求公斷的人。

願你居高位——登上審判座,被他們尊崇為公義的統治者。

英文原文

7. compass thee--as those seeking justice.

return thou on high--assume the judgment seat, to be honored as a just Ruler by them.

8. 雖不泛泛自稱無辜,他在此事上卻能自信如此;當他向全地的審判者求一判決時,實際上就是求無罪的開釋。

英文原文

8. Though not claiming innocence in general, he can confidently do so in this case, and in demanding from the Judge of all the earth a judgment, he virtually asks acquittal.

9. 心腸肺腑——人的情感與動機,或其所在(參

Ps 16:7; 26:2); 正如我們所說的心與胸懷。

英文原文

9. the hearts and reins--the affections and motives of men, or the seat of them (compare

Ps 16:7; 26:2);

as we use heart and bosom or breast.

10. 保障——按字面作「盾牌」

(Ps 5:12)。

英文原文

(Ps 5:12).

11. 審判——如

詩 7:8

所載。

惡人——雖未明言,卻已隱含;因為惟獨惡人才是神怒氣的對象。

英文原文

11. judgeth--as in

Ps 7:8.

the wicked--Though not expressed, they are implied, for they alone are left as objects of anger.

12, 13. 此處明確指出他們,雖然藉著轉換人稱——一種常見的說法——以一人作為惡人的代表。其中軍事比喻之意義顯而易見。

英文原文

12, 13. They are here distinctly pointed out, though by changing the person, a very common mode of speech, one is selected as a representative of wicked men generally. The military figures are of obvious meaning.

13. 對逼迫者——有人譯作「為焚燒」,但前說最為妥善。火箭適用於攻城,卻不適用於與一人或一群人在曠野交戰。

英文原文

13. against the persecutors--Some render "for burning," but the former is the best sense. Arrows for burning would be appropriate in besieging a town, not in warring against one man or a company in open fight.

14. 首句說明惡人勞力行惡這總意,其餘各句將此比喻充分發揮。

英文原文

14. The first clause expresses the general idea that wicked men labor to do evil, the others carry out the figure fully.

15, 16.

撒上 18:17;31:2

無論是否暗指這些事,都印證了本段的話。這幾節為

詩 7:14

的詮釋,說明惡人的謀算終成失望,其期盼落空。

英文原文

15, 16.

1Sa 18:17; 31:2

illustrate the statement whether alluded to or not. These verses are expository of

Ps 7:14,

showing how the devices of the wicked end in disappointment, falsifying their expectations.

17. 他的公義——

(Ps 5:8。)

在祂僕人的辯護和對惡人的刑罰中得以彰顯。

英文原文

17. his righteousness--

(Ps 5:8).

Thus illustrated in the defense of His servant and punishment of the wicked.
