第三十二章
1 得赦免其過、遮蓋其罪的，這人是有福的！
2 凡心裡沒有詭詐、耶和華不算為有罪的，這人是有福的！
3 我閉口不認罪的時候，因終日唉哼而骨頭枯乾。
4 黑夜白日，你的手在我身上沉重；我的精液耗盡，如同夏天的乾旱。
5 我向你陳明我的罪，不隱瞞我的惡。我說：“我要向耶和華承認
我的過犯。”你就赦免我的罪惡。
6 為此，凡虔誠人都當趁你可尋找的時候禱告你；大水泛溢的時
候，必不能到他那裡。
7 你是我藏身之處，你必保佑我脫離苦難，以得救的樂歌四面環繞我。
8 我要教導你，指示你當行的路；我要定睛在你身上勸戒你。
9 你不可像那無知的騾馬，必用嚼環轡頭勒住牠，不然，就不能馴服。
10 惡人必多受苦楚；惟獨倚靠耶和華的，必有慈愛四面環繞他。
11你們義人應當靠耶和華歡喜快樂；你們心裡正直的人都當歡呼。
默想：
1.當我們做錯事情，要認錯時，是很不容易的；因為當中有羞
恥、困窘感、怕被懲罰的懼怕感、以及怕被傷害的脆弱感。
2.但是大衛卻強調得蒙赦免的人是有福的。不肯認罪會扭曲我們
與主的關係。但是當我們認罪後，神不但赦免我們，還恢復我
們與他的親密關係；並且再次引領我們走在他的旨意中。難怪
大衛在得赦免，與神恢復關係後，在本篇詩的最後，喜樂地歡
呼起來。
3.反省一下，是否你曾經犯過什麼錯至今還沒有承認、求赦免
的？是什麼？誠懇地向神認罪，求神的饒恕， 並經歷神赦罪
的恩典。 並且求神此智慧與勇氣，來向得罪的人認錯。
禱告與筆錄：
繼續安靜在神面前，與神對話，並聆聽祂對我說的話。將心中的思
想（心得），或是與神的禱告，記錄在「靈程筆記簿」上面。
Chapter 32
1 Blessed is the one whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are
covered.
2 Blessed is the one whose sin the LORD does not count against them
and in whose spirit is no deceit.
3 When I kept silent, my bones wasted away through my groaning all
day long.
4 For day and night your hand was heavy on me; my strength was sapped
as in the heat of summer.
5 Then I acknowledged my sin to you and did not cover up my iniquity.
I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the LORD.” And you
forgave the guilt of my sin.
6 Therefore let all the faithful pray to you while you may be found;
surely the rising of the mighty waters will not reach them.
7 You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble and sur
round me with songs of deliverance.
8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will
counsel you with my loving eye on you.
9 Do not be like the horse or the mule, which have no understanding but
must be controlled by bit and bridle or they will not come to you.
10 Many are the woes of the wicked, but the LORD’s unfailing love sur
rounds the one who trusts in him.
11 Rejoice in the LORD and be glad, you righteous; sing, all you who
are upright in heart!
Meditation
1. Owning up when we do something wrong really hurts. There’s
the shame, the embarrassment the fear of punishment, the sense of
vulnerability.
2. Yet, David affirms that the forgiven man is blessed. Unconfessed
sin distorts our relationship with the Lord. But when we acknowledge
our sin, He not only forgives us, He restores us to intimate
fellowship with Him. Once again He leads us in His ways. No
wonder David, his restoration now complete, cried out in joy and
gladness at this psalm’s end.
3. Consider whether there are things sins in the past for which you are
guilty but have never sought forgiveness. Name those things. Ask
God’s forgiveness for what you have done wrong, and experience
his grace. Pray for wisdom and courage to ask forgiveness from the
person you’ve wronged.
Prayer & Journaling:
Stay with God for a little longer. Continue to converse with God and listen
to what he wants to tell me. Then write down any thought and/or prayer
in the 2012 “Spiritual Journal” book.
