Psalms 1 1 2 The LORD is king, robed with majesty; the LORD is robed, girded with might. The world will surely stand in place, never to be moved. 上主为王，以尊威作衣冠，上主身着德能，腰束大权。他奠定了大地尘寰，大地尘寰不再摇撼； 2 Your throne stands firm from of old; you are from everlasting, LORD. 3 3 The flood has raised up, LORD; the flood has raised up its roar; the flood has raised its pounding waves. 4 More powerful than the roar of many waters, more powerful than the breakers of the sea, powerful in the heavens is the LORD. 高天的上主，具有大能，压倒滔滔洪水的巨声，冲散汪洋大海的波峰。 5 Your decrees are firmly established; holiness belongs to your house, LORD, for all the length of days. 上主，你的约言，万分忠实可信，你的殿宇永远应享神圣。 Footnotes（注解） 1 [Psalm 93] A hymn celebrating the kingship of God, who created the world (Psalm 93:1-2) by defeating the sea (Psalm 93:3-4). In the ancient myth that is alluded to here, Sea completely covered the land, making it impossible for the human community to live. Sea, or Flood, roars in anger against God, who is personified in the storm. God's utterances or decrees are given authority by the victory over Sea (Psalm 93:5). 2 [1] The LORD is king: literally, "the LORD reigns." This psalm, and Psalms 47; 96-99, are sometimes called enthronement psalms. They may have been used in a special liturgy during which God's ascent to the throne was ritually reenacted. They have also been interpreted eschatologically, pointing to the coming of God as king at the end-time. 3 [3] The flood: the primordial sea was tamed by God in the act of creation. It is a figure of chaos and rebellion. Cf Psalm 46:4. |
