大卫的诗、交与伶长。耶和华阿、你已经鉴察我、认识我． 我坐下、我起来、你都晓得．你从远处知道我的意念。 我行路、我躺卧、你都细察、你也深知我一切所行的。 耶和华阿、我舌头上的话、你没有一句不知道的． 你在我前后环绕我、按手在我身上。 这样的知识奇妙、是我不能测的．至高、是我不能及的。 我往那里去躲避你的灵．我往那里逃躲避你的面。 我若升到天上、你在那里．我若在阴间下榻、你也在那里。 我若展开清晨的翅膀、飞到海极居住． 就是在那里、你的手必引导我．你的右手、也必扶持我。 我若说、黑暗必定遮蔽我、我周围的亮光必成为黑夜． 黑暗也不能遮蔽我使你不见、黑夜却如白昼发亮．黑暗和光明、在你看都是一样。

To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known me. Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off. Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways. For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether. Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it. Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence? If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me. If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me. Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee.
在生活中默想 · 灵修解释 · Reflecting in daily life · Devotional interpretation
诗篇 139 默想神对人的认识与同在。诗人用空间和光暗的图像表达无法离开神的看顾，适合让孤独中的人重新思考自己如何被认识。 聚会使用我不熟悉的语言，我常听懂一半就沉默。在这个具体处境中，先看清已经发生的事，再分辨我能承担的部分。信仰的回应可以在一次诚实的表达与一个具体行动中慢慢展开。 今天可以这样练习：向接待者询问文字材料或愿意协助说明的人。 感受值得被承认，但感受不是全部事实。试着区分已经发生的事、自己的解释和还不知道的部分。
English
Psalm 139 reflects on God's knowledge and presence. Images of space, light, and darkness express the reach of God's care, inviting those who feel alone to consider being known. A gathering uses a language I am still learning, leaving me quiet. Begin with what actually happened and distinguish your responsibilities. A faithful response can unfold through honest words and a concrete action. A practice for today: Ask a host about written material or someone willing to clarify. Feelings deserve acknowledgment, but they are not the whole story. Distinguish what happened, your interpretation, and what remains unknown.

天父，聚会使用我不熟悉的语言，我常听懂一半就沉默。赐我诚实面对感受的勇气，也赐我分辨事实与猜测的耐心。 奉耶稣的名，阿们。

Father, A gathering uses a language I am still learning, leaving me quiet. Give me courage to face my feelings and patience to separate facts from assumptions. In Jesus' name, amen.
