Never measure God’s unlimited power by your limited expectations.
不以自己的有限衡量上帝的无限。
The reigns, he is robed in majesty; the is robed in majesty and armed with strength. Psalm 93:1
耶和华作王,祂以威严为衣穿上。耶和华以能力为衣,以能力束腰。-诗篇93篇1节
Iguazu Falls, on the border of Brazil and Argentina, is a spectacular waterfall system of 275 falls along 2.7 km (1.67 miles) of the Iguazu River. Etched on a wall on the Brazilian side of the Falls are the words of Psalm 93:4, “Mightier than the thunders of many waters, mightier than the waves of the sea, the Lord on high is mighty!” (rsv). Below it are these words, “God is always greater than all of our troubles.”
伊瓜苏瀑布位于巴西和阿根廷的交界处,延着2.7公里的伊瓜苏河,共汇集275座瀑布,景色十分壮观。在巴西边界瀑布旁的峭壁上,铭刻着诗篇93篇4节:“耶和华在高处大有能力,胜过诸水的响声,洋海的大浪。”下方还有另一句话:“上帝必定胜过我们所有的难处。”
The writer of Psalm 93, who penned its words during the time that kings reigned, knew that God is the ultimate King over all. “The Lord reigns,” he wrote. “Your throne was established long ago; you are from all eternity” (vv. 1–2). No matter how high the floods or waves, the Lord remains greater than them all.
诗人在君王统治期间写下诗篇93篇,表明他知道上帝才是真正统辖全地的君王。他写道:“耶和华作王??祢的宝座从太初立定,祢从亘古就有”(1-2节)。不论洪水或浪涛如何汹涌澎湃,耶和华定然胜过一切。
The roar of a waterfall is truly majestic, but it is quite a different matter to be in the water hurtling toward the falls. That may be the situation you are in today. Physical, financial, or relational problems loom ever larger and you feel like you are about to go over the falls. In such situations, the Christian has Someone to turn to. He is the Lord, “who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine” (Eph. 3:20) for He is greater than all our troubles.
瀑布的水流咆哮而下,的确雄伟壮观,但是若你身处湍急的河流中,就快被冲向直线下泻的瀑布,那又是另一回事了。或许这正是你现在面对的处境,健康情况、经济问题、人际冲突??各种困难排山倒海而来,让你觉得似乎就要坠入瀑布之中。在这些困难的时刻,基督徒有个靠山,就是耶和华我们的上帝,祂能“充充足足地成就一切,超过我们所求所想的”(以弗所书3章20节) 。祂远远大过我们所有的难处!
Lord, I know that You are powerful and greater than any trouble that might come my way. I trust You to carry me through.
主,我知道祢大有能力,
远超过所有我可能会遇到的困境。
我相信祢必能带领我经过一切风浪!
1 The Lord reigns, he is robed in majesty;
the Lord is robed in majesty and armed with strength;
indeed, the world is established, firm and secure.
2 Your throne was established long ago;
you are from all eternity.
3 The seas have lifted up, Lord,
the seas have lifted up their voice;
the seas have lifted up their pounding waves.
4 Mightier than the thunder of the great waters,
mightier than the breakers of the sea—
the Lord on high is mighty.
5 Your statutes, Lord, stand firm;
holiness adorns your house
for endless days.
93 耶和华做王,他以威严为衣穿上。耶和华以能力为衣,以能力束腰,世界就坚定,不得动摇。
2 你的宝座从太初立定,你从亘古就有。
3 耶和华啊,大水扬起,大水发声,波浪澎湃。
4 耶和华在高处大有能力,胜过诸水的响声,洋海的大浪。
5 耶和华啊,你的法度最的确,你的殿永称为圣是合宜的。
