span data-lang="jpn" data-trans="kyb" data-ref="psa.31.1" class="versetxt"> 1 主よ、わたしはあなたに寄り頼みます。とこしえにわたしをはずかしめず、あなたの義をもってわたしをお助けください。2 あなたの耳をわたしに傾けて、すみやかにわたしをお救いください。わたしのためにのがれの岩となり、わたしを救う堅固な城となってください。3 まことに、あなたはわたしの岩、わたしの城です。み名のためにわたしを引き、わたしを導き、4 わたしのためにひそかに設けた網からわたしを取り出してください。あなたはわたしの避け所です。5 わたしは、わが魂をみ手にゆだねます。主、まことの神よ、あなたはわたしをあがなわれました。6 あなたはむなしい偶像に心を寄せる者を憎まれます。しかしわたしは主に信頼し、7 あなたのいつくしみを喜び楽しみます。あなたがわたしの苦しみをかえりみ、わたしの悩みにみこころをとめ、8 わたしを敵の手にわたさず、わたしの足を広い所に立たせられたからです。9 主よ、わたしをあわれんでください。わたしは悩み苦しんでいます。わたしの目は憂いによって衰え、わたしの魂も、からだもまた衰えました。10 わたしのいのちは悲しみによって消えゆき、わたしの年は嘆きによって消えさり、わたしの力は苦しみによって尽き、わたしの骨は枯れはてました。11 わたしはすべてのあだにそしられる者となり、隣り人には恐れられ、知り人には恐るべき者となり、ちまたでわたしを見る者は避けて逃げます。12 わたしは死んだ者のように人の心に忘れられ、破れた器のようになりました。13 まことに、わたしは多くの人のささやくのを聞きます、「至る所に恐るべきことがある」と。彼らはわたしに逆らってともに計り、わたしのいのちを取ろうと、たくらむのです。14 しかし、主よ、わたしはあなたに信頼して、言います、「あなたはわたしの神である」と。15 わたしの時はあなたのみ手にあります。わたしをわたしの敵の手と、わたしを責め立てる者から救い出してください。16 み顔をしもべの上に輝かせ、いつくしみをもってわたしをお救いください。17 主よ、わたしはあなたに呼ばわります、わたしをはずかしめないでください。悪しき者に恥をうけさせ、彼らに声をあげさせずに陰府に行かせてください。18 高ぶりと侮りとをもって正しい者をみだりにそしる偽りのくちびるをつぐませてください。19 あなたを恐れる者のためにたくわえ、あなたに寄り頼む者のために人の子らの前に施されたあなたの恵みはいかに大いなるものでしょう。20 あなたは彼らをみ前のひそかな所に隠して人々のはかりごとを免れさせ、また仮屋のうちに潜ませて舌の争いを避けさせられます。21 主はほむべきかな、包囲された町のようにわたしが囲まれたとき、主は驚くばかりに、いつくしみをわたしに示された。22 わたしは驚きあわてて言った、「わたしはあなたの目の前から断たれた」と。しかしわたしがあなたに助けを呼び求めたとき、わたしの願いを聞きいれられた。23 すべての聖徒よ、主を愛せよ。主は真実な者を守られるが、おごりふるまう者にはしたたかに報いられる。24 すべて主を待ち望む者よ、強くあれ、心を雄々しくせよ。

Gill's Notes on the Bible

For I have heard the slander of many,.... Both enemies and neighbours;

fear [was] on every side; his enemies were a "Magormissabib" to him,

Jeremiah 20:3; encompassed him around, so that he was in fear from every quarter;

while they took counsel together against me; how to apprehend him, and what to do with him;

they devised to take away my life; nothing short of that would satisfy; but life is in the hand of God; men may devise, but God disappoints, and his counsel stands; hence the psalmist was encouraged, after all, to trust in him, in this time of imminent danger, as follows.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

For I have heard the slander of many - The reproach; the false accusations; the unjust aspersions. We are here more definitely informed as to another of the sources of the trouble that came upon him. It was “slander.” He had already referred to “two” sources of trouble; one Psalms 31:11 that he was “reproached” by his friends and neighbors, and that his society was shunned by them; a second, that he was “forgotten” by those who ought to have remembered him, and that they treated him as though he were dead, Psalms 31:12. The third is referred to now; to wit, that he was the subject of “slander,” or of false reports. What was the “nature” of those false charges we are not informed. But it is not needful that we should know precisely what they were. It is enough, in order to see the depth and aggravation of his trouble, to know that he “was” exposed to this; and that, to all that he had to endure from other sources, there was this added - that his name was reproached and cast out as evil - that he was subjected to “slander,”

“Whose edge is sharper than the sword; whose tongue

Outvenoms all the worms of Nile; whose breath

Rides on the posting winds; and doth belie

All corners of the world.”

Cymbeline, Act iii., Sc. iv.

Fear was on every side - From the causes already specified. He knew not whom to trust. He seemed to have no friend. He was afraid, therefore, of every one that he met.

While they took counsel together against me - See the notes at Psalms 2:2. They entered into a conspiracy or combination.

They devised to take away my life - They devised measures, or they laid a plot, thus to kill me. These are the grounds of the earnest prayer which he urges in Psalms 31:9 : “Have mercy upon me, O Lord, for I am in trouble.”

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 31:13. I have heard the slander of many — To this and the two foregoing verses the reader may find several parallels; Jeremiah 18:18-15, and ten first verses of Jeremiah 20:1-10. This has caused several to suppose that Jeremiah was the author of this Psalm.
