Sing praises to the LORD,

Sing praises to the LORD, O you his saints, and give thanks to his holy name. 5For his anger is but for a moment, and his favor (恩惠) is for a lifetime. Weeping(哭泣) may tarry (停留) for the night, but joy comes with the morning. (Psalm 30.4-5)
耶和華的聖民哪,你們要歌頌他,稱讚他可紀念的聖名。因為他的怒氣不過是轉眼之間;他的恩典乃一生之久。一宿雖有哭泣,早晨便必歡呼。(詩篇第30篇4-5節)

How beautiful is this verse: God's wrath, though dreadful, lasts only for a moment, while His grace endures for a lifetime. The beauty of this verse lies not only in its literary quality but in the boundless love and grace of God, which are beyond measure, surpassing our thoughts and understanding.

Ascribe to the LORD the

Ascribe to (把....歸因於) the LORD the glory due (應有的) his name; worship the LORD in the splendor (光輝) of holiness. (Psalm 29.2, Bible)要將耶和華的名所當得的榮耀歸給他,以聖潔的裝飾敬拜耶和華。(詩篇第29篇2節,聖經)

Give the LORD the recognition and honor that are rightfully His. Also, the verse urges worshiping the LORD with reverence and purity.

Wait for the LORD; be strong,

Wait for the LORD; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the LORD! (Psalm 27.14) 要等候耶和華!當壯膽,堅固你的心!我再說,要等候耶和華!

Calvin's Commentaries: "as if he had said, If fearfulness steal upon thee; if temptation (試探) shake thy faith; if the feelings of the flesh (肉體)rise in tumult(波動、激動), do not faint(怯懦的); but rather endeavor (努力) to rise above them by an invincible(不可戰勝的) resolution(堅定、決心) of mind. From this we may learn, that the children of God overcome, not by sullenness(鬱鬱寡歡), but by patience, when they commit(把....交託給) their souls quietly to God;...Wait thou alone on Jehovah"

加爾文讀到這節經文時,他這樣說:「如果恐懼侵襲你,如果試探動搖你的信心,如果肉體的感受湧上心頭,不要氣餒,反而努力以堅定不移的心志超越它們。從這一點我們可以學到,神的兒女不是通過憂鬱而是通過忍耐而得勝,當他們

The friendship of the LORD is for

The friendship of the LORD is for those who fear him, and he makes known to them his covenant. (Psalm 25.14)
耶和華與敬畏他的人親密;他必將自己的約指示他們(詩篇25篇14節)

King James Version: The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant. Since the fear of the Lord is said to be the beginning, it is the way that leads to a right understanding of God's will. The wisdom and guidance of God, though beyond our full understanding, are not given to us in vain. When we wholeheartedly seek Him and hear him, we can trust that the Holy Spirit will guide us and reveal to us the heavenly wisdom necessary for our salvation.

The LORD lives

"The LORD lives" (Psalms 18.46, Bible).
耶和華是活神 (詩篇第18篇46節,聖經)。

Taiwanese people have many gods, but none of them are living gods. Some are deceased people, while others are idols created by human hands and imagination. They are not gods worshiped by the whole world, nor do they govern the universe. They are merely idols revered and worshiped by a small part of the population in a certain region. They cannot speak and those who believe in them have different beliefs and perform different rituals depending on the regional differences. They are not creators, but were created by human hands at a certain time.

In contrast to the idols made by human hands, God in the Bible is the living God. The God of the Bible is alive and His words are clearly recorded in the Bible. He rules over the universe and has not changed because of any regional differences. He is not limited by time and space.

I only believe in the living God, who governs the universe and created my life. False gods that cannot overcome death cannot be our saviors as mortal beings.

I love you, O LORD

"I love you, O LORD" (Psalms 18. 1, Bible).
耶和華,我的力量啊,我愛你!(詩篇第18篇1節,聖經)

With so many gods in Taiwan, which god will we say "I love you" to? What kind of relationship is it that we say "I love you" to our God? This is something that traditional Taiwanese folks who believe in different gods cannot understand or imagine.

That is the relationship between God and those who are Christians: we love our God because He first loved us. We are not asking Him to bless this or that, give me this or that, but rather, I love you, my God. And, God loves me.

I say to the LORD, “You are my Lord; I have no good apart from you.

I say to the LORD, “You are my Lord; I have no good apart from you.”(Psalm 16.2, Bible)

我的心哪,你曾對耶和華說:你是我的主;我的好處不在你以外。

Looking at the majority of us who spend most of our days pursuing things that are unrelated to God, it's no wonder that the satisfaction and happiness we derive from pursuing material and spiritual needs in this world are so short-lived, so unsatisfactory, so easily taken away, and so unreliable. All of these pursuits are fleeting, meaningless, and disconnected from true goodness, and they cannot truly satisfy our hearts nor last for eternity.

The psalmist affirms to us that all good things come from God. God is the source of all goodness. Human beings are wholly dependent on Him for their well-being. Seeking happiness from anything other than God is futile because all goodness comes from Him. So, without God, any pursuit of happiness or good things and any attempt to find fulfillment apart from God would be in vain.

The fool says in his heart

The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt (墮落的), they do abominable (可惡的) deeds; there is none who does good. 2The LORD looks down from heaven on the children of man, to see if there are any who understand, who seek after God. 3They have all turned aside; together they have become corrupt; there is none who does good, not even one. (Psalms 14. 1-3, Bible)

愚頑人心裡說:沒有神。他們都是邪惡,行了可憎惡的事;沒有一個人行善。耶和華從天上傳垂看世人,要看有明白的沒有,有尋求神的沒有。他們都偏離正路,一同變為污穢;並沒有行善的,連一個也沒有。(詩篇第14篇1-3節,聖經)

Paul quoted the verses in Romans 3:10-12, as proof of the universal depravity of mankind. All people in the world have fallen and turned away from God; there is not even one person who is an exception. Those who refuse to acknowledge their own corruption demonstrate their pride and separation from God.

1. There is nothing           so French as a baguette--a long, thin stick of bread that’s found in every French bakery in the world.

2. The word baguette means “stick,” which refers to the bread’s shape. To be         (ed)  a true baguette, the bread must be           on the outside and soft on the inside.

3. According to one legend, the baguette was created in Austria by a baker who         (ed)  the steam oven to France in 1839.

4. While the bread           to the 1800s, the term baguette wasn’t regularly used until the 1920s, when a new law          (ed) bakers from working before 4:00 a.m.

5. The platypus is a           example.  

6. A wombat baby will come out of its pouch when it’s about five months old. For the next few months, though, it frequently crawls back into its           for food or to feel safe.  

7. If you’re in Australia and you see a quokka, you shouldn’t feed or touch it. Doing so is actually           and you could be fined or even go to jail! You can take a picture, however.

8. In fact, #quokka          is a popular hashtag on social media. How can you take a picture without touching a quokka?

But I have trusted in your steadfast

5But I have trusted in your steadfast (堅定的,不變的)love; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation (拯救). 6I will sing to the LORD, because he has dealt bountifully (慷慨地)with me. (Psalms 13.5-6, Bible)

但我倚靠你的慈愛;我的心因你的救恩快樂。我要向耶和華歌唱,因他用厚恩待我。(詩篇第13篇5-6節,聖經)

We often complain to God in our hardships and forget about His guidance and abundant blessings throughout our lives. However, David was not like that. Even in the midst of his troubles, David firmly believed in God's love and was able to find joy and praise God. Despite his difficulties, David still declared that the Lord had dealt with him bountifully.

Put them in fear

Put them in fear, O LORD! Let the nations know that they are but men! (Psalms 9.20, Bible)

耶和華啊,求你使外邦人恐懼;願他們知道自己不過是人。(聖經,詩篇第九章20節)

What is man, that is so proud and arrogant, thinking that he can do as he pleases, and exert control over everything? The ungodly boldly and arrogantly exceed all bounds, as if there were no hindrance to their every desire. They live as if they can exist indefinitely, as if nothing can hinder them as long as they exert effort, as if their own happiness is the sole purpose, seemingly oblivious to the possibility of a higher power, as if there is no judgment to come, no accountability for their actions, as if there is no God. Yet in reality, people live as if they themselves are gods.

Thus, It is necessary for nations to recognize their own mortality. It is important to know that they have no complete control of anything. They should truly understand their own limitations. When God strikes the nations with terror, they may know that they are but men.

Oh, let the evil of the wicked come to an end

9Oh, let the evil of the wicked come to an end, and may you establish the righteous— you who test the minds and hearts, (Psalms 7.9, Bible)

願惡人的惡斷絕!願你堅立義人!因為公義的神察驗人的心腸肺腑。(詩篇第7篇9節,聖經)

God examines the thoughts, intentions, and emotions of a person's innermost being. In other words, God looks beyond a person's external actions and behaviors and scrutinizes the inner workings of their mind. Thus, one's goodness is not just for show or for gaining the approval of others or to avoid punishment, but it is a reflection of one's true nature. God knows our innermost heart; He has complete knowledge of our true selves. Therefore, we should live as if we are living before God, because God is the one who examines the hearts and innermost being of people.

But I, through the abundance

But I, through the abundance (豐富)of your steadfast (堅定的)love, will enter your house. I will bow down toward your holy temple in the fear of you. (Psalms 5.7)

至於我,我憑你豐盛的慈愛進入你的居所;我存敬畏你的心像你的聖殿下拜。(詩篇第5篇7節,聖經)

We do not approach God by our own abilities or goodness, for we are sinners and have no means to approach Him on our own. We can only approach God through His goodness and that the only way to pray correctly is for someone who has experienced His grace and believes wholeheartedly that He will show them mercy. Only by having such an understanding of my relationship with God can I truly approach Him.

Adding the fear of God helps to differentiate sincere and faithful trust from false confidence. We should fear God because it helps us to recognize His sovereignty and holiness, which leads to humility and a proper understanding of our condition. By fearing God, we will turn away from sin, and our reverence will motivate us to live in obedience to God's will. Fearing God also leads to wisdom and understanding (according to Proverbs).

There are many who say

6There are many who say, “Who will show us some good?
Lift up the light of your face upon us, O LORD!”
7You have put more joy in my heart
than they have when their grain and wine abound (富足). (Psalms 4.6-7).

有許多人說:誰能指示我們什麼好處?耶和華啊,求你仰起臉來,光照我們。你使我心裡快樂,勝過那豐收五穀新酒的人。(詩篇4.6-7)

David declares that he is satisfied with God's favor and does not value the things that other people crave. This contrast between David's desires and the desires of the world. The faithful view earthly possessions as insignificant; they find their rest solely in God and consider nothing more precious than knowing that they have God's favor. The light of God's countenance denotes his favor and love. It is a request for God to show his loving-kindness towards them; it seems to be a plea for God to turn His attention to them. On the contrary, without God's love, grace, and mercy, they would be lost in darkness.

Furthermore, David expressed that he found greater contentment in the loving countenance of God shining upon him, than enjoy all earthly good things. In other words, his happiness was not dependent on earthly possessions but on his relationship with God.

I ask myself: Where does my joy come from? Where do I find contentment?

O LORD, how many are my foes

O LORD, how many are my foes (敵人)!
Many are rising against me;
2many are saying of my soul,
“There is no salvation (拯救) for him in God.”

耶和花啊,我的敵人和其加增;有許多人起來攻擊我。有許多人議論我說:他得不著神的幫助。

3But you, O LORD, are a shield(盾牌) about me,
my glory, and the lifter of my head.
4I cried aloud to the LORD,
and he answered me from his holy hill.

但你--耶和華是我四圍的盾牌,是我的榮耀,又是叫我抬起頭來的。我用我的聲音求告耶和華,他就從他的聖山上應允我。

5I lay down and slept;
I woke again, for the LORD sustained(支撐) me.
6I will not be afraid of many thousands of people
who have set themselves against me all around.

Why do the nations rage

Why do the nations rage (狂怒)
and the peoples (許多人民) plot (密謀) in vain (徒勞)?
2The kings of the earth set themselves,
and the rulers take counsel together,
against the LORD and against his Anointed (受膏者), saying,
3“Let us burst (破裂) their bonds apart
and cast away(擺脫) their cords (繩索) from us.”

外邦為什麼爭鬧?萬民為什麼謀算虛妄的事?世上的君王一齊起來。臣宰一同商議,要敵擋耶和華並他的受膏者,說:我們要掙開他們的綑綁,脫去他們的繩索。

4He who sits in the heavens laughs;
the Lord holds them in derision(嘲笑).
5Then he will speak to them in his wrath (憤怒),
and terrify (使害怕)them in his fury (狂怒), saying,
6“As for me, I have set my King
on Zion, my holy hill.”

那坐在天上的必發笑,主必嗤笑他們。那時,他要在怒中責備他們,在烈怒中驚嚇他們,說:我已經立我的君在錫安--我的聖山上了。
