詩編 33:13

span data-lang="jpn" data-trans="kyb" data-ref="psa.33.1" class="versetxt"> 1 正しき者よ、主によって喜べ、さんびは直き者にふさわしい。2 琴をもって主をさんびせよ、十弦の立琴をもって主をほめたたえよ。3 新しい歌を主にむかって歌い、喜びの声をあげて巧みに琴をかきならせ。4 主のみことばは直く、そのすべてのみわざは真実だからである。5 主は正義と公平とを愛される。地は主のいつくしみで満ちている。6 もろもろの天は主のみことばによって造られ、天の万軍は主の口の息によって造られた。7 主は海の水を水がめの中に集めるように集め、深い淵を倉におさめられた。8 全地は主を恐れ、世に住むすべての者は主を恐れかしこめ。9 主が仰せられると、そのようになり、命じられると、堅く立ったからである。10 主はもろもろの国のはかりごとをむなしくし、もろもろの民の企てをくじかれる。11 主のはかりごとはとこしえに立ち、そのみこころの思いは世々に立つ。12 主をおのが神とする国はさいわいである。主がその嗣業として選ばれた民はさいわいである。13 主は天から見おろされ、すべての人の子らを見、14 そのおられる所から地に住むすべての人をながめられる。15 主はすべて彼らの心を造り、そのすべてのわざに心をとめられる。16 王はその軍勢の多きによって救を得ない。勇士はその力の大いなるによって助けを得ない。17 馬は勝利に頼みとならない。その大いなる力も人を助けることはできない。18 見よ、主の目は主を恐れる者の上にあり、そのいつくしみを望む者の上にある。19 これは主が彼らの魂を死から救い、ききんの時にも生きながらえさせるためである。20 われらの魂は主を待ち望む。主はわれらの助け、われらの盾である。21 われらは主の聖なるみ名に信頼するがゆえに、われらの心は主にあって喜ぶ。22 主よ、われらが待ち望むように、あなたのいつくしみをわれらの上にたれてください。

Gill's Notes on the Bible

The Lord looketh from heaven,.... Where his throne and temple are, upon the earth and men, and things in it, as follows;

he beholdeth all the sons of men; the evil and the good; which is contrary to the sense of many wicked men, who imagine he takes no notice of what is done here below; but his eye is upon all, upon all the workers of iniquity, how secret soever they may be; and not only his eye of Providence is upon good men, but his eye of love, grace, and mercy; and he has a special and distinct knowledge of them: agreeably to this are some expressions of Heathen writers; says one e,

"the eye of God sees all things;''

says another f,

"there is a great God in heaven who sees all things, and governs.''

e παντα ιδων διος οφθαλμος, &c. Hesiod. Opera & Dies, l. 1. v. 263. f εστι μεγας εν ουρανω, &c. Sophoclis Electra, v. 174, 175.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The Lord looketh from heaven - heaven is represented as his abode or dwelling; and from that place he is represented as looking down upon all the nations of the earth. The meaning here is, that he sees all that dwell upon the earth, and that, therefore, all that worship him are under his eye. He knows their wants, and he will watch over them to protect them. It is not merely to the abstract truth that God sees all who dwell upon the earth that the psalmist means to refer; but that those who are his friends, or who worship him, are all under his eye, so as to enjoy his watchful care and attention.

He beholdeth all the sons of men - All the descendants of “Adam,” for this is the original. There is no improbability in supposing that the word “Adam” here (usually meaning “man”) is employed as a proper name to denote the great ancestor of the human race, and that the psalmist means to refer to the race as one great family descended from a common ancestor, though scattered abroad over the face of the world.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 33:13. The Lord looketh from heaven — This and the following verse seem to refer to God's providence. He sees all that is done in the earth, and his eye is on all the children of men.
