旧约 - 诗篇(Psalms)第103章

Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.
Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;
Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;
Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.
The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed.
He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.
The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.
He will not always chide: neither will he keep his anger for ever.
He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.
For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him.
As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.
Like as a father pitieth his children, so the LORD pitieth them that fear him.
For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust.
As for man, his days are as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth.
For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more.
But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children's children;
To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandments to do them.
The LORD hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all.
Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word.
Bless ye the LORD, all ye his hosts; ye ministers of his, that do his pleasure.
Bless the LORD, all his works in all places of his dominion: bless the LORD, O my soul.
诗篇第一百零三篇   第 103 篇 

  诗 103 篇 > 赞美神的话,我是否已习以为常了? 

  103 篇 大卫的赞美都集中在神的大作为上。我们很容易抱怨,而大卫数算了许多赞美神的项目:神赦免我们的罪,医治我们的疾病,从死亡里拯救我们,以爱和同情待我们,满足我们的需要,并赐下公义和正直。我们领受的这些全是人不配得的。不管生活旅程多么艰难,无论过去、现在还是将来,我们都可以信靠神对我们的祝福。如果口中好像没有什么可以赞美神的话了,我们就该看一看大卫所数算的项目。 

  诗 103:7> 神的法律我都懂,至于遵守…… 

  103:7 神的律法首先是赐给摩西和以色列百姓的,清楚地代表了神的本质和旨意。它是神用来预备百姓跟随神的道路的训练守则。我们要再看看那十条诫命(参出 20 章),和神如何颁布它们的情形,并求神通过它们向我们显示神的旨意和道路。 

  诗 103:12> 很多时候我觉得我的罪就在我的周围,但神竟这样说…… 

  103:12 “东”和“西”永不相交象征着神的赦免。神赦免了我们的罪,就把我们同恶分开,而且不去想我们的恶了。我们不必沉溺在过去,死抱着过去不放,神已赦免、清洗了我们的历史。我们若跟随神,就必须仿效神的赦免。当我们赦免别人的时候,我们也不再记起人家的恶了,否则,我们就没有真正做到赦免。 

  诗 103:13-14> 对我这样的人,神一定觉得很失望,是吗? 

  103:13-14 我们虽脆弱,但神的关怀直到永远。我们很多时候把神看作审判和律法的给予者,却忘了神的怜悯和对我们的关怀。神检查我们生活的时候,没有忘记人的自然条件和状况。我们的弱点从来就不能替我们的罪开脱。神的怜悯已把一切都考虑进去了。神将以同情来待我们。我们只管相信神! 

  诗 103:20-22> 我们的生命是在赞美主吗? 

  103:20-22 无论何物无论何处都在赞美主。所有的天使(最高的和天军)以及所有神的工作都在赞美神。赞美神意味着记住神为我们的所作所为( 103:2 ),敬畏神和顺服神的诫命( 103:17-18 ),遵循神的旨意( 103:21 )。问问自己,我们的生活是在赞美主吗?──《灵修版圣经注释》
