128
顺从耶和华的赏报
上行之诗。
1 凡敬畏耶和华、
遵行他道的人便为有福！
2 你要吃劳碌得来的；
你要享福，事情顺利。
3 你妻子在你的内室，好像多结果子的葡萄树；
你儿女围绕你的桌子，好像橄榄栽子。
4 看哪，敬畏耶和华的人必要这样蒙福！
5 愿耶和华从锡安赐福给你！
愿你一生一世看见耶路撒冷的好处！
6 愿你看见你儿女的儿女！
愿平安归于以色列！
We ask that God would make us holy. It is a good request indeed. But are we prepared to be sanctified by any process that God in His wisdom may call on us to pass through? Are we ready to be purified by affliction, weaned from the world by bereavements, drawn nearer to God by losses, sicknesses, and sorrow?
