詩編 72:18

span data-lang="jpn" data-trans="kyb" data-ref="psa.72.1" class="versetxt"> 1 神よ、あなたの公平を王に与え、あなたの義を王の子に与えてください。2 彼は義をもってあなたの民をさばき、公平をもってあなたの貧しい者をさばくように。3 もろもろの山と丘とは義によって民に平和を与えるように。4 彼は民の貧しい者の訴えを弁護し、乏しい者に救を与え、しえたげる者を打ち砕くように。5 彼は日と月とのあらんかぎり、世々生きながらえるように。6 彼は刈り取った牧草の上に降る雨のごとく、地を潤す夕立のごとく臨むように。7 彼の世に義は栄え、平和は月のなくなるまで豊かであるように。8 彼は海から海まで治め、川から地のはてまで治めるように。9 彼のあだは彼の前にかがみ、彼の敵はちりをなめるように。10 タルシシおよび島々の王たちはみつぎを納め、シバとセバの王たちは贈り物を携えて来るように。11 もろもろの王は彼の前にひれ伏し、もろもろの国民は彼に仕えるように。12 彼は乏しい者をその呼ばわる時に救い、貧しい者と、助けなき者とを救う。13 彼は弱い者と乏しい者とをあわれみ、乏しい者のいのちを救い、14 彼らのいのちを、しえたげと暴力とからあがなう。彼らの血は彼の目に尊い。15 彼は生きながらえ、シバの黄金が彼にささげられ、彼のために絶えず祈がささげられ、ひねもす彼のために祝福が求められるように。16 国のうちには穀物が豊かにみのり、その実はレバノンのように山々の頂に波打ち、人々は野の草のごとく町々に栄えるように。17 彼の名はとこしえに続き、その名声は日のあらん限り、絶えることのないように。人々は彼によって祝福を得、もろもろの国民は彼をさいわいなる者ととなえるように。18 イスラエルの神、主はほむべきかな。ただ主のみ、くすしきみわざをなされる。19 その光栄ある名はとこしえにほむべきかな。全地はその栄光をもって満たされるように。アァメン、アァメン。20 エッサイの子ダビデの祈は終った。

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Blessed [be] the Lord God,.... The Messiah, who is truly and properly God, Jehovah, Lord of all, and the Lord our righteousness; to whom such a doxology or ascription of glory and blessing properly belongs, since all good things are from him, and by him;

the God of Israel; that brought Israel out of Egypt; went before them in the wilderness; redeemed and saved them, and bore and carried them all the days of old; and in whom all the true Israel of God are justified, and shall be saved with an everlasting salvation;

who only doeth wondrous things; in the creation of all things out of nothing; in the government of the world; and in the redemption and salvation of his people; which is a very marvellous thing: as that God should become man, suffer and die in the room of men, and save them from sin and ruin; this wondrous thing. Christ has done alone, and there was none with him.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Blessed be the Lord God, the God of Israel - The God who rules over Israel; the God who is worshipped by the Hebrew people, and who is recognized as their God. They adore him as the true God; and he “is” their God, their Protector, their Friend.

Who only doeth wondrous things - Things that can properly be regarded as “wonders;” things suited to excite admiration by their vastness and power. Compare Exodus 15:11.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 72:18. Blessed be the Lord God — David foresaw all Solomon's grandeur; his justice, equity, and the happiness of the subjects under his government; and his soul has, in consequence, sensations of pleasure and gratitude to God, which even his own wondrous pen cannot describe. But it is worthy of remark, that God did not reveal to him the apostasy of this beloved son. He did not foresee that this once holy, happy, wise, and prosperous man would be the means of debasing the Divine worship, and establishing the grossest idolatry in Israel. God hid this from his eyes, that his heart might not be grieved, and that he might die in peace. Besides, there was still much contingency in the business. God would not predict a thing as absolutely certain, which was still poised between a possibility of being and not being; the scale of which he had left, as he does all contingencies, to the free-will of his creature to turn.

Who only doeth wondrous things. — God alone works miracles: wherever there is a miracle, there is God. No creature can invert or suspend the course and laws of nature; this is properly the work of God. Jesus Christ, most incontrovertibly, wrought such miracles; therefore, most demonstrably, Jesus Christ is GOD.
