全新四年樂活讀經
W5 2013-06-28 (詩篇100-101)
101:1 (大衛的詩)。我要歌唱慈愛和公平;耶和華啊,我要向你歌頌!
101:2 我要用智慧行完全的道。你幾時到我這裡來呢?我要存完全的心行在我家中。
101:3 邪僻的事,我都不擺在我眼前;悖逆人所做的事,我甚恨惡,不容沾在我身上。
101:4 彎曲的心思,我必遠離;一切的惡人(或譯:惡事),我不認識。
101:5 在暗中讒謗他鄰居的,我必將他滅絕;眼目高傲、心裡驕縱的,我必不容他。
101:6 我眼要看國中的誠實人,叫他們與我同住;行為完全的,他要伺候我。
101:7 行詭詐的,必不得住在我家裡;說謊話的,必不得立在我眼前。
101:8 我每日早晨要滅絕國中所有的惡人,好把一切作孽的從耶和華的城裡剪除。
默想: 這首詩是大衛的禱告,從這個禱告中,我們看到了身為一個王,他的價值觀。大衛認為做為一個王,最重要的是「慈愛和公平」,追求的是「用智慧行完全的道」。因為一個敬畏上帝的君王,就會促使全國百姓真正的敬拜上帝。當王「行公義、好憐憫」,百姓就會存謙卑的心與神同行。
在大衛的禱告中,他要除去一切邪辟的事與悖逆的人。從思想到交友他都保持潔淨,那些口舌的爭議,眼目的高傲,也不被容許。大衛描繪自己乃是要與誠實人、行為完全的人在一起。從我們今天的角度來看,或許我們不能像大衛一樣,身為一個王,有權力去懲奸除惡,或是選賢舉能,靠著自己的權位來影響這個社會、國家。但是,這不代表我們什麼都不能做,我們可以透過大衛的這個禱告,提醒自己,每一天,我處在什麼的處境中,我與什麼樣的人來往?我用我的生活,傳達了,我所追求的價值觀是什麼?當人們看到我的時候,他們覺得,我是一個什麼樣的人?否認我有真的追求「慈愛和公平」、「用智慧行完全的道」?
題目: 根據詩篇101篇,大衛王每天要除去那些罪惡呢?

Know ye that the LORD he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. and not...: or, and his we are
100:4 當稱謝進入他的門;當讚美進入他的院。當感謝他,稱頌他的名!
Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.

101:6 我眼要看國中的誠實人,叫他們與我同住;行為完全的,他要伺候我。
Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me. in a...: or, perfect in the way
101:7 行詭詐的,必不得住在我家裡;說謊話的,必不得立在我眼前。
He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight. shall not tarry: Heb. shall not be established
