The Security of God's People. A song of degrees. 1 They that trust in the LORD shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever. 2 As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the LORD is round about his people from henceforth even for ever. 3 For the rod of the wicked shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands unto iniquity. Here are three very precious promises made to the people of God, which, though they are designed to secure the welfare of the church in general, may be applied by particular believers to themselves, as other promises of this nature may. Here is, I. The character of God's people, to whom these promises belong. Many call themselves God's people who have no part nor lot in this matter. But those shall have the benefit of them and may take the comfort of them, (1.) Who are righteous ( Psalms 125:3 ; Psalms 125:3 ), righteous before God, righteous to God, and righteous to all men, for his sake justified and sanctified. (2.) Who trust in the Lord, who depend upon his care and devote themselves to his honour. All that deal with God must deal upon trust, and he will give comfort to those only that give credit to him, and make it to appear they do so by quitting other confidences, and venturing to the utmost for God. The closer our expectations are confined to God the higher our expectations may be raised from him. II. The promises themselves. 1. That their hearts shall be established by faith: those minds shall be truly stayed that are stayed on God: They shall be as Mount Zion. The church in general is called Mount Zion ( Hebrews 12:22 ), and it shall in this respect be like Mount Zion, it shall be built upon a rock, and its interests shall be so well secured that the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. The stability of the church is the satisfaction of all its well-wishers. Particular persons, who trust in God, shall be established ( Psalms 112:7 ); their faith shall be their fixation, Isaiah 7:9 . They shall be as Mount Zion, which is firm as it is a mountain supported by providence, much more as a holy mountain supported by promise. (1.) They cannot be removed by the prince of the power of the air, nor by all his subtlety and strength. They cannot be removed from their integrity nor from their confidence in God. (2.) They abide for ever in that grace which is the earnest of their everlasting continuance in glory. 2. That, committing themselves to God, they shall be safe, under his protection, from all the insults of their enemies, as Jerusalem had a natural fastness and fortification in the mountains that were round about it, Psalms 125:2 ; Psalms 125:2 . Those mountains not only sheltered it from winds and tempests, and broke the force of them, but made it also very difficult of access for an enemy; such a defence is God's providence to his people. Observe, (1.) The compass of it: The Lord is round about his people on every side. There is no gap in the hedge of protection which he makes round about his people, at which the enemy, who goes about them, seeking to do them a mischief, can find entrance, Job 1:10 . (2.) The continuance of it-- henceforth even for ever. Mountains may moulder and come to nought, and rocks be removed out of their place ( Job 14:18 ), but God's covenant with his people cannot be broken ( Isaiah 54:10 ) nor his care of them cease. Their being said to stand fast for ever ( Psalms 125:1 ; Psalms 125:1 ), and here to have God round about them for ever, intimates that the promises of the stability and security of God's people will have their full accomplishment in their everlasting state. In heaven they shall stand fast for ever, shall be as pillars in the temple of our God and go no more out ( Revelation 3:12 ), and there God himself, with his glory and favour, will be round about them for ever. 3. That their troubles shall last no longer than their strength will serve to bear them up under them, Psalms 125:3 ; Psalms 125:3 . (1.) It is supposed that the rod of the wicked may come, may fall, upon the lot of the righteous. The rod of their power may oppress them; the rod of their anger may vex and torment them. It may fall upon their persons, their estates, their liberties, their families, their names, any thing that falls to their lot, only it cannot reach their souls. (2.) It is promised that, though it may come upon their lot, it shall not rest there; it shall not continue so long as the enemies design, and as the people of God fear, but God will cut the work short in righteousness, so short that even with the temptation he will make a way for them to escape. (3.) It is considered as a reason of this promise that if the trouble should continue over-long the righteous themselves would be in temptation to put forth their hands to iniquity, to join with wicked people in their wicked practices, to say as they say and do as they do. There is danger lest, being long persecuted for their religion, at length they grow weary of it and willing to give it up, lest, being kept long in expectation of promised mercies, they begin to distrust the promise, and to think of casting God off, upon suspicion of his having cast them off. See Psalms 73:13 ; Psalms 73:14 . Note, God considers the frame of his people, and will proportion their trials to their strength by the care of his providence, as well as their strength to their trials by the power of his grace. Oppression makes a wise man mad, especially if it continue long; therefore for the elect's sake the days shall be shortened, that, whatever becomes of their lot in this world, they may not lose their lot among the chosen. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verses-4-5" class="com-number"

source-manifest/mhm— Matthew Henry Complete Commentary (PD)- evidence_grade: T_theological
**하나님 백성의 안전.** 성전에 올라가는 노래.
> 1 여호와를 신뢰하는 사람들은 시온 산과 같으니, 흔들리지 않고 영원히 서 있습니다. 2 산들이 예루살렘을 둘러싸고 있듯이, 여호와께서는 지금부터 영원까지 그의 백성을 둘러싸고 계십니다. 3 악인의 지팡이는 의인의 분깃 위에 쉬지 않을 것입니다. 그러지 않으면 의인들이 손을 내밀어 불의를 행할 것이기 때문입니다.
여기에 하나님의 백성에게 주어진 세 가지 귀한 약속이 있다. 이 약속들은 교회 전체의 복지를 보장하기 위해 주어진 것이지만, 개별 신자들도 다른 이와 같은 성격의 약속들처럼 자신에게 적용할 수 있다.
**I. 약속을 받는 하나님 백성의 특성.** 많은 사람이 스스로를 하나님의 백성이라 부르지만, 이 약속과는 아무런 관계가 없다. 이 약속의 유익과 위로를 누릴 수 있는 사람은 다음과 같다.
(1) 의로운 사람(125:3). 하나님 앞에서 의롭고, 하나님께 의롭고, 그의 이름으로 모든 사람에게 의로운 사람 — 칭의와 성화를 받은 사람이다.
(2) 여호와를 신뢰하는 사람. 그의 돌보심에 의지하고 그의 영광에 자신을 드리는 사람이다. 하나님을 대하는 모든 이는 신뢰로 대해야 하며, 하나님은 그를 믿는 사람에게만 위로를 주신다. 다른 모든 의지를 버리고 하나님을 위해 끝까지 헌신하는 삶이 이를 증명한다. 기대를 오직 하나님께만 집중할수록 그분께 받는 기대는 더 높아진다.
**II. 약속들 자체.**
**1. 믿음으로 마음이 견고해진다.** 마음이 하나님께 고정된 사람은 참으로 안정된다. "그들은 시온 산과 같으리라." 교회 전체는 시온 산이라 불리며(히브리서 12:22), 이와 같이 반석 위에 세워져 그 이익이 굳게 보장되어 음부의 문이 이기지 못한다. 교회의 견고함은 교회를 사랑하는 모든 이에게 위로가 된다. 하나님을 신뢰하는 개인도 견고해지며(시편 112:7), 그 믿음이 그를 고정시킨다(이사야 7:9). 그들은 시온 산과 같으니, 섭리로 지탱되는 산으로서 견고할 뿐만 아니라 약속으로 지탱되는 거룩한 산으로서 더욱 견고하다.
(1) 그들은 공중 권세 잡은 자에 의해서도, 그 모든 간계와 힘에 의해서도 흔들리지 않는다. 정직함에서도, 하나님에 대한 신뢰에서도 흔들리지 않는다.
(2) 그들은 영원한 영광 속의 지속을 보증하는 은혜 안에서 영원히 거한다.
**2. 하나님께 자신을 맡기는 이들은 원수들의 모든 공격으로부터 안전하게 그분의 보호 아래 있다.** 예루살렘이 사방의 산들로 인해 자연적인 요새와 방어막을 가졌듯이(125:2), 하나님의 섭리가 그의 백성에게 그러한 방어가 된다.
(1) 그 포괄성: "여호와께서는 사방에서 그의 백성을 둘러싸고 계십니다." 그가 백성을 두르시는 보호의 울타리에는 틈이 없어서, 사방으로 돌아다니며 그들을 해치려는 원수가 들어올 틈이 없다(욥기 1:10).
(2) 그 지속성 — "지금부터 영원까지." 산은 녹아 없어질 수 있고 바위는 제자리에서 옮겨질 수 있으나(욥기 14:18), 하나님의 백성과의 언약은 깨질 수 없고(이사야 54:10) 그들을 향한 그분의 돌보심은 끝나지 않는다. 그들이 영원히 굳게 설 것이며(125:1) 여호와께서 영원히 그들을 두르신다는 말씀은, 하나님 백성의 견고함과 안전에 대한 약속이 영원한 상태에서 완전히 성취될 것임을 암시한다. 하늘에서 그들은 영원히 굳게 서며 하나님의 성전에 기둥이 되어 다시는 나가지 않을 것이고(요한계시록 3:12), 거기서 하나님 자신이 그의 영광과 은혜로 영원히 그들을 두르실 것이다.
**3. 그들의 고난은 그것을 감당할 능력이 다하기 전에 끝날 것이다(125:3).**
(1) 악인의 지팡이가 의인의 분깃에 임할 수 있다는 것이 전제된다. 그 권세의 지팡이가 억압할 수 있고, 분노의 지팡이가 그들을 괴롭히고 고통스럽게 할 수 있다. 그것이 그들의 몸과 재물과 자유와 가족과 명예, 즉 그들에게 주어진 모든 것에 임할 수 있다. 다만 그것이 그들의 영혼에는 미칠 수 없다.
(2) 그것이 그들의 분깃에 임할 수는 있어도 거기 머물지는 않을 것이라고 약속된다. 원수들이 계획한 만큼, 하나님의 백성이 두려워하는 만큼 오래 지속되지 않고, 하나님이 의 가운데서 그 일을 짧게 끊으실 것이다. 너무도 짧아서 시험과 함께 피할 길을 내실 것이다.
(3) 이 약속의 이유가 제시된다. 고난이 너무 오래 계속된다면 의인 자신도 악을 행하도록 유혹받을 것이기 때문이다 — 악한 자들과 함께 악한 일에 동참하고, 그들이 말하는 대로 말하고 행하는 대로 행하게 될 것이다. 신앙 때문에 오래 박해를 받다 보면 마침내 신앙에 지쳐 포기하고 싶어질 위험이 있고, 약속된 자비를 오래 기다리다 보면 약속을 불신하고 하나님이 자신을 버리신 것이 아닌가 의심하며 하나님을 버릴 생각이 들 위험이 있다(시편 73:13~14 참조).
하나님은 자기 백성의 연약함을 헤아리시어, 섭리의 돌보심으로 고난을 그들의 힘에 맞게 조절하시고, 은혜의 능력으로 그들의 힘을 고난에 맞게 조절하신다. 오랫동안 지속되는 억압은 지혜로운 사람도 미치게 만든다. 그러므로 택하신 자들을 위해 그 날들이 단축될 것이니, 이 세상에서 그들의 분깃이 어떻게 되더라도 택함 받은 자들 가운데서의 분깃은 잃지 않도록 하신다.

P S A L M S PSALM CXXV. This short psalm may be summed up in those words of the prophet ( Isaiah 3:10 ; Isaiah 3:11 ), "Say you to the righteous, It shall be well with him. Woe to the wicked, it shall be will with him." Thus are life and death, the blessing and the curse, set before us often in the psalms, as well as in the law and the prophets. I. It is certainly well with the people of God; for, 1. They have the promises of a good God that they shall be fixed ( Psalms 125:1 ), and safe ( Psalms 125:2 ), and not always under the hatches, Psalms 125:3 . 2. They have the prayers of a good man, which shall be heard for them, Psalms 125:4 . II. It is certainly ill with the wicked, and particularly with the apostates, Psalms 125:5 . Some of the Jewish rabbies are of opinion that it has reference to the days of the Messiah; however, we that are members of the gospel-church may certainly, in singing this psalm, take comfort of these promises, and the more so if we stand in awe of the threatening. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verses-1-3" class="com-number"

시편 125편은 선지자의 말씀(이사야 3:10~11)으로 요약할 수 있다. "의인에게는 복이 있다고 말하라. 그들은 그 행위의 열매를 먹으리라. 악인에게는 재앙이 있나니, 그들은 그 손이 행한 것을 당하리라." 이처럼 삶과 죽음, 축복과 저주가 율법과 선지서에서와 마찬가지로 시편 곳곳에 제시된다.
I. 하나님의 백성은 반드시 잘될 것이다. 선하신 하나님의 약속이 그들에게 있기 때문이다. (1) 그들은 견고히 서게 될 것이다(125:1). (2) 안전하게 보호받을 것이다(125:2). (3) 영원히 억눌린 채로 있지 않을 것이다(125:3). 또한 선한 사람의 기도가 그들을 위해 응답받을 것이다(125:4).
II. 악인은, 특히 배교자는 반드시 화를 당한다(125:5).
유대 랍비 일부는 이 시편이 메시아의 날을 가리킨다고 보기도 한다. 그러나 복음의 교회 구성원인 우리는 이 시편을 노래할 때 이 약속들로 분명히 위로를 받을 수 있으며, 경고의 말씀을 경외함으로 받을수록 더욱 그러하다.

The Security of God's People. 4 Do good, O LORD , unto those that be good, and to them that are upright in their hearts. 5 As for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, the LORD shall lead them forth with the workers of iniquity: but peace shall be upon Israel. Here is, 1. The prayer the psalmist puts up for the happiness of those that are sincere and constant ( Psalms 125:4 ; Psalms 125:4 ): Do good, O Lord! unto those that are good. This teaches us to pray for all good people, to make supplication for all saints; and we may pray in faith for them, being assured that those who do well shall certainly be well dealt with. Those that are as they should be shall be as they would be, provided they be upright in heart, that they be really as good as they seem to be. With the upright God will show himself upright. He does not say, Do good, O Lord! to those that are perfect, that are sinless and spotless, but to those that are sincere and honest. God's promises should quicken our prayers. It is comfortable wishing well to those for whom God has engaged to do well. 2. The prospect he has of the ruin of hypocrites and deserters; he does not pray for it ( I have not desired the woeful day, thou knowest ), but he predicts it: As for those, who having known the way of righteousness, for fear of the rod of the wicked, basely turn aside out of it to their wicked ways, use indirect ways to prevent trouble or extricate themselves out of it, or those who, instead of reforming, grow worse and worse and are more obstinate and daring in their impieties, God shall send them away, cast them out, and lead them forth with the workers of iniquity, that is, he will appoint them their portion with the worst of sinners. Note, (1.) Sinful ways are crooked ways; sin is the perverting of that which is right. (2.) The doom of those who turn aside to those crooked ways out of the right way will be the same with theirs who have all along walked in them, nay, and more grievous, for if any place in hell be hotter than another that shall be the portion of hypocrites and apostates. God shall lead them forth, as prisoners are led forth to execution. Go, you cursed, into everlasting fire; and these shall go away; all their former righteousness shall not be mentioned unto them. The last words, Place upon Israel, may be taken as a prayer: "God preserve his Israel in peace, when his judgments are abroad reckoning with evil-doers." We read them as a promise: Peace shall be upon Israel; that is, [1.] When those who have treacherously deserted the ways of God meet with their own destruction those who faithfully adhere to them, though they may have trouble in their way, shall have peace in the end. [2.] The destruction of those who walk in crooked ways will contribute to the peace and safety of the church. When Herod was cut off the word of God grew, Acts 12:23 ; Acts 12:24 . [3.] The peace and happiness of God's Israel will be the vexation, and will add much to the torment, of those who perish in their wickedness, Luke 13:28 ; Isaiah 65:13 . My servants shall rejoice, but you shall be ashamed. return to ' Top of Page ' Psalms Psa 124 Psalms Psa Psalms Psa 126 Footnotes: Copyright Statement These files are public domain and are a derivative of an electronic edition that is available on the Christian Classics Ethereal Library Website.

source-manifest/mhm— Matthew Henry Complete Commentary (PD)- evidence_grade: T_theological
**하나님 백성의 안전.**
> 4 여호와여, 선한 사람들에게, 마음이 정직한 사람들에게 선을 행하소서. 5 굽은 길로 돌아서는 사람들에 대해서는, 여호와께서 악을 행하는 자들과 함께 그들을 끌어내실 것입니다. 이스라엘에는 평화가 있을 것입니다.
여기에 두 가지가 있다.
**1. 시편 기자가 진실하고 변함없는 사람들의 행복을 위해 드리는 기도(125:4).** "여호와여, 선한 사람들에게 선을 행하소서." 이것은 모든 선한 사람들을 위해, 모든 성도들을 위해 간구하도록 가르친다. 그리고 우리는 선을 행하는 사람들은 반드시 선한 대우를 받을 것이라는 확신 속에서 믿음으로 그들을 위해 기도할 수 있다. 마음이 정직한 사람, 즉 겉모습만큼이나 실제로 선한 사람은 그들이 원하는 대로 될 것이다. 하나님은 정직한 사람에게 정직하게 대하실 것이다. "온전한 사람에게" 또는 "흠 없는 사람에게 선을 행하소서"라고 하지 않고 "진실하고 정직한 사람들에게"라고 한 것에 주목하라. 하나님의 약속이 우리의 기도를 자극해야 한다. 하나님이 선을 베풀기로 작정하신 사람들을 위해 우리가 선을 바라는 것은 위로가 된다.
**2. 위선자들과 배교자들의 멸망에 대한 예언.** 시편 기자는 그것을 기도하지 않는다("내가 재앙의 날을 원하지 않았다는 것을 주님이 아십니다"). 다만 그것을 예언한다.
의의 길을 알고서도, 악인의 지팡이가 두려워 비겁하게 그 길에서 벗어나 악한 길로 굽어지는 사람들, 즉 환난을 막거나 거기서 빠져나오기 위해 정직하지 않은 방법을 쓰는 사람들, 또는 돌이키는 대신 더욱 악하고 더욱 완고해져 불경건에 담대해지는 사람들에 대해서는 — 하나님이 그들을 내쫓고 악을 행하는 자들과 함께 끌어내실 것이다. 즉 가장 악한 죄인들과 함께 그들의 몫을 정하실 것이다.
(1) 죄의 길은 굽은 길이다. 죄는 옳은 것을 왜곡하는 것이다.
(2) 그 바른 길에서 굽은 길로 돌아선 자들의 운명은 처음부터 그 길을 걸어온 자들의 운명과 같을 것이다. 아니, 더 무거울 것이다. 지옥 어느 곳이 다른 곳보다 뜨겁다면 그것은 위선자와 배교자의 몫이 될 것이기 때문이다. "하나님이 그들을 끌어내실 것이다" — 마치 죄인들이 처형장으로 끌려가듯이. "저주받은 자들아, 영원한 불로 가라." 그들은 떠나갈 것이며, 이전의 모든 의가 그들에게 기억되지 않을 것이다.
마지막 말씀, "이스라엘에게 평화가 있을 것입니다"는 기도로 받아들일 수 있다. "하나님이여, 심판이 악을 행하는 자들을 징계할 때 그의 이스라엘을 평화 가운데 보전하소서." 그러나 우리는 이것을 약속으로 읽는다. "이스라엘에게 평화가 있을 것이다."
[1] 하나님의 길을 배신하고 떠난 자들이 스스로 멸망에 이를 때, 그 길에 충실히 머문 자들은 비록 가는 길에서 고난이 있더라도 마침내 평화를 얻을 것이다.
[2] 굽은 길을 걷는 자들의 멸망은 교회의 평화와 안전에 기여한다. 헤롯이 끊어졌을 때 하나님의 말씀이 자라났다(사도행전 12:23~24).
[3] 하나님의 이스라엘의 평화와 행복은 악 가운데 멸망하는 자들에게 고통이 되며 그들의 괴로움을 크게 더할 것이다(누가복음 13:28; 이사야 65:13). "내 종들은 기뻐하겠지만 너희는 수치를 당할 것이다."
