신실함을 노래하다: 시편 101편의 신뢰와 확신
다윗의 왕적 시편은 진정한 믿음이 단순히 하나님을 기다리는 것이 아니라, 그의 공의를 적극적으로 신뢰하며 그 신뢰가 우리 삶의 모든 영역을 형성하도록 하는 것임을 가르칩니다.
Of David. A psalm.I will sing of faithfulness and justice;I will chant a hymn to You, O ETERNAL One. I will study the way of the blameless;when shall I attain it?I will live without blame within my house. I will not set before my eyes anything base;I hate crooked dealing;I will have none of it. Perverse thoughts will be far from me;I will know nothing of evil. One who slanders a friend in secret I will destroy;I cannot endure anyone haughty and proud. My eyes are on the trustworthy ones of the land,to have them at my side.One who follows the way of the blamelessshall be in my service. One who deals deceitfullyshall not live in my house;one who speaks untruthshall not stand before my eyes. Each morning I will destroyall the wicked of the land,to rid GOD’s cityof all evildoers.
Psalm 101 is a royal psalm of David. Its theme is the king's resolve to be faithful to God in his personal life and in his rule, grounded in trust in the LORD's justice and faithfulness.
