和合本

NKJV

1 你 們 要 稱 謝 耶 和 華 ， 求 告 祂 的 名 ， 在 萬 民 中 傳 揚 祂 的 作 為 ！ 2 要 向 祂 唱 詩 歌 頌 ， 談 論 祂 一 切 奇 妙 的 作 為 ！ 3 要 以 祂 的 聖 名 誇 耀 ！ 尋 求 耶 和 華 的 人 ， 心 中 應 當 歡 喜 ！ 4 要 尋 求 耶 和 華 與 祂 的 能 力 ， 時 常 尋 求 祂 的 面 。 5-6 祂 僕 人 亞 伯 拉 罕 的 後 裔 ， 祂 所 揀 選 雅 各 的 子 孫 哪 ， 你 們 要 記 念 祂 奇 妙 的 作 為 和 祂 的 奇 事 ， 並 祂 口 中 的 判 語 。 7 祂 是 耶 和 華 ─ 我 們 的 　 神 ； 全 地 都 有 祂 的 判 斷 。 8 祂 記 念 祂 的 約 ， 直 到 永 遠 ； 祂 所 吩 咐 的 話 ， 直 到 千 代 ─

1 Oh, give thanks to the LORD!       Call upon His name;       Make known His deeds among the peoples! 2 Sing to Him, sing psalms to Him;       Talk of all His wondrous works! 3 Glory in His holy name;       Let the hearts of those rejoice who seek the LORD! 4 Seek the LORD and His strength;       Seek His face evermore! 5 Remember His marvelous works which He has done,       His wonders, and the judgments of His mouth, 6 O seed of Abraham His servant,       You children of Jacob, His chosen ones! 7 He is the LORD our God;       His judgments are in all the earth. 8 He remembers His covenant forever,       The word which He commanded, for a thousand generations,

詩 Psalm 105:8 祂記念祂的約，直到永遠；祂所吩咐的話，直到千代。 He remembers His covenant forever, the word which He commanded, for a thousand generations.

這首詩多次提醒我們要記念、傳揚神一切奇妙的作為並祂口中的判語，因為神也記念祂的約和祂所吩咐的話，直到永遠。這首詩接下來的三十七節直到結束都在記念神在以色列人身上的作為，從亞伯拉罕直到以色列人進入應許之地，最後再總結說要讚美耶和華。我們同樣也要一一數算神過去在我們身上的恩典，免得我們被眼前的事物所蒙蔽，忘記了神的作為，並祂那永不改變的應許。讓我們一起來尋求神和祂的能力祂的面，稱謝、求告祂，紀念、傳揚祂的作為，並且不論環境如何都要以神為樂。讚美神，因為祂的名神聖有榮耀；讚美神，因為祂的作為奇妙；讚美神，因為祂的判語公正帶能力；讚美神，因為祂信實不改變，祂的話語也永遠堅立！

This psalm repeatedly reminds us that we have to remember and proclaim the wonderful acts of God and the judgments of His mouth, because God also remembers His covenant and the word He commanded forever. The next 37 verses of this psalm till the end are all about remembering the works of God on the Israelites, from Abraham till the Israelites entered the promised land, and finally concludes in praising the LORD. We should also recount one by one the grace that God had bestowed on us, lest we are being blinded by matters in front of our eyes, and forget about the deeds of God and His unchanging promises. Let us seek the LORD together with His strength and His face, give thanks to Him and call upon His name, remember and proclaim His deeds, and in whatever circumstances, rejoice in the Lord. Praise God, for His name is holy and glorious; praise God, for His deeds are wondrous; praise God, for His judgments are just and with authority; praise God, for He is faithful and unchanging, His word also stands fast forever!
