诗篇 31:11

11 我 因 一 切 敌 人 成 了 羞 辱 , 在 我 的 邻 舍 跟 前 更 甚 ; 那 认 识 我 的 都 惧 怕 我 , 在 外 头 看 见 我 的 都 躲 避 我 。

诗篇 31:11 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 31:11

I was a reproach among all mine enemies
This is a common case of the people of God; and though it may be the least of their afflictions, yet it is not grateful to the flesh; and it is as it is made: under divine supports saints rejoice, and take pleasure in reproaches, that they are counted worthy to bear them, and esteem them as great riches; at other times they seize and feed upon their spirits, and are ready to break their hearts;

but especially among my neighbours;
who knew him, and knew he did not deserve to be so treated; and who ought, as neighbours, to have loved him, and done all good offices to him; so that this is an aggravation both of their sin and his distress;

and a fear to mine acquaintance;
not that they were afraid that he should do them any mischief; but they were afraid to own him, and to do him any service; unless the sense is, that they were afraid that evil would befall him, that he should not escape with his life; which, though it may express the affectionate concern of his friends, yet shows the danger he was exposed to;

they that did see me without fled from me;
as if he had something very pestilential and infectious about him.

诗篇 31:11 In-Context

9 耶 和 华 啊 , 求 你 怜 恤 我 , 因 为 我 在 急 难 之 中 ; 我 的 眼 睛 因 忧 愁 而 乾 瘪 , 连 我 的 身 心 也 不 安 舒 。
10 我 的 生 命 为 愁 苦 所 消 耗 ; 我 的 年 岁 为 叹 息 所 旷 废 。 我 的 力 量 因 我 的 罪 孽 衰 败 ; 我 的 骨 头 也 枯 乾 。
11 我 因 一 切 敌 人 成 了 羞 辱 , 在 我 的 邻 舍 跟 前 更 甚 ; 那 认 识 我 的 都 惧 怕 我 , 在 外 头 看 见 我 的 都 躲 避 我 。
12 我 被 人 忘 记 , 如 同 死 人 , 无 人 记 念 ; 我 好 像 破 碎 的 器 皿 。
13 我 听 见 了 许 多 人 的 谗 谤 , 四 围 都 是 惊 吓 ; 他 们 一 同 商 议 攻 击 我 的 时 候 , 就 图 谋 要 害 我 的 性 命 。
