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

He shall judge the poor of the people,.... Of the people of God, whether among Jews or Gentiles; :-;

he shall save the children of the needy; whose parents being needy, they are so too, in a spiritual sense, and in distressed circumstances. Such Christ saves from their sins; from the curses and condemnation of the law: from, wrath to come, and out of the hands of all their enemies;

and shall break in pieces the oppressor; the tyrant Satan, the god of this world; that has usurped a power over it; who works in the children of disobedience, and leads captive the people of God in their unregenerate state: the "calumniator", as some render the word; the accuser of the brethren: "the defrauder" q, as others: who beguiled our first parents, and deceives mankind. Now it was foretold of Christ that he should break his head; and he was manifested in the flesh to destroy his works; and him himself; and he has broke him and all his schemes in pieces, and spoiled all his principalities and powers: The Syriac Version reads, "tyrants" or "oppressors", in the plural number; and it may include the Jews, who were the persecutors and oppressors of the first Christians; and Rome, Pagan and Papal; antichrist, and all the antichristian states, which have been, or will be, broken to pieces by Christ; who will rule them with a rod of iron, and break them in pieces as a potter's vessel, Revelation 2:27.

q עושק "calumniatorem", Pagninus, Tigurine version, Vatablus, Musculus; "fraudatorem", Muis, Cocceius.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

He shall judge the poor of the people - The afflicted; the down-trodden; the needy. He would vindicate their cause against their oppressors; his reign would be one of impartial justice, under which the rights of the poor as well as of the rich would be respected. See the notes at Isaiah 11:4.

He shall save the children of the needy - Those in humble life; those most likely to be oppressed by others; those who have no natural protectors.

And shall break in pieces the oppressor - Shall subdue, or destroy, those who live to oppress others. See the notes at Psalms 12:5.
