旧约 - 诗篇(Psalms)第49章

Hear this, all you peoples; listen, all who live in this world,
both low and high, rich and poor alike:
My mouth will speak words of wisdom; the utterance from my heart will give understanding.
I will turn my ear to a proverb; with the harp I will expound my riddle:
Why should I fear when evil days come, when wicked deceivers surround me--
those who trust in their wealth and boast of their great riches?
No man can redeem the life of another or give to God a ransom for him--
the ransom for a life is costly, no payment is ever enough--
that he should live on forever and not see decay.
For all can see that wise men die; the foolish and the senseless alike perish and leave their wealth to others.
Their tombs will remain their houses forever, their dwellings for endless generations, though they had named lands after themselves.
But man, despite his riches, does not endure; he is like the beasts that perish.
This is the fate of those who trust in themselves, and of their followers, who approve their sayings. Selah
Like sheep they are destined for the grave, and death will feed on them. The upright will rule over them in the morning; their forms will decay in the grave, far from their princely mansions.
But God will redeem my life from the grave; he will surely take me to himself. Selah
Do not be overawed when a man grows rich, when the splendor of his house increases;
for he will take nothing with him when he dies, his splendor will not descend with him.
Though while he lived he counted himself blessed--and men praise you when you prosper--
he will join the generation of his fathers, who will never see the light of life.
A man who has riches without understanding is like the beasts that perish.
诗篇第四十九篇   第 49 篇 

  诗 49 篇 > 财富、名利、地位、尊严,真的那么重要吗?请看神说的话。 

  49 篇 这首诗表达了属世的财富、骄傲、名誉的无用。与传道书的形式相若,这首诗教训多过了赞美,是几首同类诗中的一首。 

  诗 49:7-8,15> 赎他生命的极其宝贵,其实赎我赎你生命的,也是…… 

  49:7-8,15 在古代奴隶巿场上,一个奴隶要被人赎身(有人付出价钱)才能获得自由。从马可福音 10 章 45 节,以弗所书 1 章 7 节和希伯来书 9 章 12 节中,我们了解到耶稣为我们付了这样的赎价,使我们得以脱离罪恶的奴役,开始同耶稣在一起的新生活。 

  诗 49:10-14> 当世人都在“聪明地”投资的时候,我看我手所行的,是聪明人?是愚昧人? 

  49:10-14 贫穷人和富有人有一个共同点,那就是在死亡的时候他们都把全部财产留在了地上。在死亡的时候(我们所有人都会面临这一时候),贫穷人和富有人都赤身露体两手空空来到神面前。那时候惟一的富人是那些已经投资在永远的资产上的人。我们每一个人在临死的时候都希望在地上的投资少一些,因为我们必须把它们留在地上;我们也都希望在天上的财富多一些,因为我们将在那儿永远拥有。我们必须对神有信心、顺服神,将财宝存在天上,并将我们的资源用在神国的益处上。现在是一个检验你的投资的好时候,看看你在哪里投的资本最多,然后你就在真正值得的地方投资下去。──《灵修版圣经注释》
