è©©ç·¨ 74:1

聖書日本語

1 神よ、なぜ、われらをとこしえに捨てられるのですか。なぜ、あなたの牧の羊に怒りを燃やされるのですか。2 昔あなたが手に入れられたあなたの公会、すなわち、あなたの嗣業の部族となすためにあがなわれたものを思い出してください。あなたが住まわれたシオンの山を思い出してください。3 とこしえの滅びの跡に、あなたの足を向けてください。敵は聖所で、すべての物を破壊しました。4 あなたのあだは聖所の中でほえさけび、彼らのしるしを立てて、しるしとしました。5 彼らは上の入口では、おのをもって木の格子垣を切り倒しました。6 また彼らは手おのと鎚とをもって聖所の彫り物をことごとく打ち落しました。7 彼らはあなたの聖所に火をかけ、み名のすみかをけがして、地に倒しました。8 彼らは心のうちに言いました、「われらはことごとくこれを滅ぼそう」と。彼らは国のうちの神の会堂をことごとく焼きました。9 われらは自分たちのしるしを見ません。預言者も今はいません。そしていつまで続くのか、われらのうちには、知る者がありません。10 神よ、あだはいつまであざけるでしょうか。敵はとこしえにあなたの名をののしるでしょうか。11 なぜあなたは手を引かれるのですか。なぜあなたは右の手をふところに入れておかれるのですか。12 神はいにしえからわたしの王であって、救を世の中に行われた。13 あなたはみ力をもって海をわかち、水の上の龍の頭を砕かれた。14 あなたはレビヤタンの頭をくだき、これを野の獣に与えてえじきとされた。15 あなたは泉と流れとを開き、絶えず流れるもろもろの川をからされた。16 昼はあなたのもの、夜もまたあなたのもの。あなたは光と太陽とを設けられた。17 あなたは地のもろもろの境を定め、夏と冬とを造られた。18 主よ、敵はあなたをあざけり、愚かな民はあなたのみ名をののしります。この事を思い出してください。19 どうかあなたのはとの魂を野の獣にわたさないでください。貧しい者のいのちをとこしえに忘れないでください。20 あなたの契約をかえりみてください。地の暗い所は暴力のすまいで満ちています。21 しえたげられる者を恥じさせないでください。貧しい者と乏しい者とにみ名をほめたたえさせてください。22 神よ、起きてあなたの訴えをあげつらい、愚かな者のひねもすあなたをあざけるのをみこころにとめてください。23 あなたのあだの叫びを忘れないでください。あなたの敵の絶えずあげる騒ぎを忘れないでください。

Gill's Notes on the Bible

O God, why hast thou cast us off for ever?..... This the church supposed because of the prevalence, oppression, and triumph of the enemy, because of the hardships and afflictions she laboured under, and because of the hidings of the face of God from her, which unbelief interpreted of a casting off; see Psalms 77:7 when in reality it was not so, only in appearance, and according to a wrong judgment made of things; for God never did nor never will cast off, nor cast away, his people whom he foreknew, Romans 11:1,

why doth thine anger smoke against the sheep of thy pasture? the people of God are called "sheep", because subject to go astray, not only before conversion, but after; and because harmless and inoffensive in their lives and conversations; and because, though exposed to the insults and persecutions of men, and their butcheries and barbarities, and therefore called "the flock of slaughter", Zechariah 11:4, yet bear all patiently, as the sheep before her shearers is dumb; and because like sheep they are weak and timorous, unable to defend themselves; are clean, and so distinguished from dogs and swine; and are profitable, though not to God, yet to men, and one another; and like sheep are sociable, and love to be together: and they are called the sheep of the Lord's pasture; because he provides good pasture for them, leads them into it, and feeds them himself with Christ, the bread of life, the tree of life, and hidden manna; with covenant grace and promises, even the sure mercies of David; with discoveries of his love and grace, and with his word and ordinances; and yet these, when under afflictions and desertions, are ready to conclude that God is angry with them, yea, is very angry; that his anger burns against them, and his fierce wrath goes over them, signified by smoking; see Deuteronomy 19:20, alluding to men, who, when they are angry, become hot, as Kimchi observes, and their breath like smoke comes out of their nostrils.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

O God, why hast thou cast us off for ever? - Thou seemest to have cast us off forever, or finally. Compare Psalms 44:9, note; Psalms 13:1, note. “Why doth thine anger smoke.” See Deuteronomy 29:20. The presence of smoke indicates fire, and the language here is such as often occurs in the Scriptures, when anger or wrath is compared with fire. See Deuteronomy 32:22; Jeremiah 15:14.

Against the sheep of thy pasture - Thy people, represented as a flock. See Psalms 79:13; Psalms 95:7. This increases the tenderness of the appeal. The wrath of God seemed to be enkindled against his own people, helpless and defenseless, who needed his care, and who might naturally look for it - as a flock needs the care of a shepherd, and as the care of the shepherd might be expected. He seemed to be angry with his people, and to have cast them off, when they had every reason to anticipate his protection.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

PSALM LXXIV

The psalmist complains of the desolations of the sanctuary,

and pleads with God, 1-3;

shows the insolence and wickedness of their enemies, 4-8;

prays to God to act for them as he had done for their fathers,

whom, by his miraculous power, he had saved, 9-17;

begs God to arise, and vindicate his own honour against his

enemies, and the enemies of his people, 18-23.

NOTES ON PSALM LXXIV

The title is, Maschil of Asaph, or, "A Psalm of Asaph, to give instruction." That this Psalm was written at a time when the temple was ruined, Jerusalem burnt, and the prophets scattered or destroyed, is evident. But it is not so clear whether the desolations here refer to the days of Nebuchadnezzar, or to the desolation that took place under the Romans about the seventieth year of the Christian era. Calmet inclines to the former opinion; and supposes the Psalm to be a lamentation over the temple destroyed by Nebuchadnezzar.

Verse Psalms 74:1. O God, why hast thou cast us off for ever? — Hast thou determined that we shall never more be thy people? Are we never to see an end to our calamities?
