旧约 - 诗篇(Psalms)第90章

Lord, you have been our dwelling place throughout all generations.
Before the mountains were born or you brought forth the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God.
You turn men back to dust, saying, "Return to dust, O sons of men."
For a thousand years in your sight are like a day that has just gone by, or like a watch in the night.
You sweep men away in the sleep of death; they are like the new grass of the morning--
though in the morning it springs up new, by evening it is dry and withered.
We are consumed by your anger and terrified by your indignation.
You have set our iniquities before you, our secret sins in the light of your presence.
All our days pass away under your wrath; we finish our years with a moan.
The length of our days is seventy years--or eighty, if we have the strength; yet their span is but trouble and sorrow, for they quickly pass, and we fly away.
Who knows the power of your anger? For your wrath is as great as the fear that is due you.
Teach us to number our days aright, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
Relent, O LORD! How long will it be? Have compassion on your servants.
Satisfy us in the morning with your unfailing love, that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days.
Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us, for as many years as we have seen trouble.
May your deeds be shown to your servants, your splendor to their children.
May the favor of the Lord our God rest upon us; establish the work of our hands for us--yes, establish the work of our hands.
诗篇第九十篇   第 90 篇 

  诗 90:4> 物理学中讲,时间也是相对的,理论上能接受,实际上嘛…… 

  90:4 神不受时间的限制。摩西提醒我们说天上主一日,地上人千年。岁月消逝而世界又毫无改变,我们很容易灰心。有时候我们还怀疑神能不能看到将来。但不要认为神会受我们的限制,神是不受时间限制的,神是永远的,所以我们能依靠神。 

  诗 90:8> 神知道我们所有的罪,这太可怕了…… 

  90:8 神知道我们犯的所有罪,就好像我们是在神面前犯的似的,再隐秘的罪神也知道。我们不需要隐藏我们的罪,因为我们可以公开而诚实地同神讲话。神知道我们所有可怕的情况的时候,仍旧会爱我们并赦免我们。这应该是鼓励我们来到神的面前,而不是使我们害怕而掩盖我们的罪。 

  诗 90:12> 数算自己的日子?还早吧…… 

  90:12 明白生命的短暂能帮助我们聪明地使用这不多的时间做些有永恒意义的事。花点时间一边数你的日子一边问:“在未离世之前我要看见什么事情发生呢?我今天朝那个目标迈进了一小步了吗?” 

  诗 90:17> 我们今天的工作和神永恒的计划有关系吗? 

  90:17 因为我们的日子屈指可数,所以我们希望自己的工作算数、有效和有成果。我们希望通过自己的工作看到神永恒的计划和荣耀。如果我们对今生今世不满,并抱怨一切不好的地方,请记住我们要看到工作成就的这种愿望是神放在我们心中的(参传 3:11 的注释),但是我们的愿望只能在永恒中实现。在那以前,我们必须将自己摆上事奉神,爱神。──《灵修版圣经注释》
