Deuteronômio 29

Studie

   

1 Estas são as palavras do pacto que o Senhor ordenou a Moisés que fizesse com os filhos de Israel na terra de Moabe, além do pacto que fizera com eles em Horebe.

2 Chamou, pois, Moisés a todo o Israel, e disse-lhes: Vistes tudo quanto o Senhor fez perante vossos olhos, na terra do Egito, a Faraó, a todos os seus servos e a toda a sua terra;

3 as grandes provas que os teus olhos viram, os sinais e aquelas grandes maravilhas.

4 Mas até hoje o Senhor não vos tem dado um coração para entender, nem olhos para ver, nem ouvidos para ouvir.

5 Quarenta anos vos fiz andar pelo deserto; não se envelheceu sobre vós a vossa roupa, nem o sapato no vosso .

6 Pão não comestes, vinho e bebida forte não bebestes; para que soubésseis que eu sou o Senhor vosso Deus.

7 Quando, pois, viemos a este lugar, Siom, rei de Hesbom, e Ogue, rei de Basã, nos saíram ao encontro, à peleja, e nós os ferimos;

8 e lhes tomamos a terra, e a demos por herança aos rubenitas, aos gaditas e à meia tribo dos manassitas.

9 Guardai, pois, as palavras deste pacto e cumpri-as, para que prospereis em tudo quanto fizerdes.

10 Vós todos estais hoje perante o Senhor vosso Deus: os vossos cabeças, as vossas tribos, os vossos anciãos e os vossos oficiais, a saber, todos os homens de Israel,

11 os vossos pequeninos, as vossas mulheres, e o estrangeiro que está no meio do vosso arraial, tanto o rachador da vossa lenha como o tirador da vossa água;

12 para entrardes no pacto do Senhor vosso Deus, e no seu juramento que o Senhor vosso Deus hoje faz convosco;

13 para que hoje vos estabeleça por seu povo, e ele vos seja por Deus, como vos disse e como prometeu com juramento a vossos pais, a Abraão, a Isaque e a Jacó.

14 Ora, não é somente convosco que faço este pacto e este juramento,

15 mas é com aquele que hoje está aqui conosco perante o Senhor nosso Deus, e também com aquele que hoje não está aqui conosco

16 (porque vós sabeis como habitamos na terra do Egito, e como passamos pelo meio das nações, pelas quais passastes;

17 e vistes as suas abominações, os seus ídolos de pau e de pedra, de prata e de ouro, que havia entre elas);

18 para que entre vós não haja homem, nem mulher, nem família, nem tribo, cujo coração hoje se desvie do Senhor nosso Deus, e vá servir aos deuses dessas nações; para que entre vós não haja raiz que produza veneno e fel,

19 e aconteça que alguém, ouvindo as palavras deste juramento, se abençoe no seu coração, dizendo: Terei paz, ainda que ande na teimosia do meu coração para acrescentar à sede a bebedeira.

20 O Senhor não lhe quererá perdoar, pelo contrário fumegará contra esse homem a ira do Senhor, e o seu zelo, e toda maldição escrita neste livro pousará sobre ele, e o Senhor lhe apagará o nome de debaixo do céu.

21 Assim o Senhor o separará para mal, dentre todas as tribos de Israel, conforme todas as maldições do pacto escrito no livro desta lei.

22 Pelo que a geração vindoura - os vossos filhos que se levantarem depois de vós - e o estrangeiro que vier de terras remotas dirão, ao verem as pragas desta terra, e as suas doenças, com que o Senhor a terá afligido,

23 e que toda a sua terra é enxofre e sal e abrasamento, de sorte que não será semeada, e nada produzirá, nem nela crescerá erva alguma, assim como foi a destruição de Sodoma e de Gomorra, de Admá e de Zeboim, que o Senhor destruiu na sua ira e no seu furor;

24 sim, todas as nações dirão: Por que fez o Senhor assim com esta terra? Que significa o furor de tamanha ira?

25 Então se dirá: Porquanto deixaram o pacto do Senhor, o Deus de seus pais, que tinha feito com eles, quando os tirou da terra do Egito;

26 e se foram e serviram a outros deuses, e os adoraram; deuses que eles não tinham conhecido, e que lhes não foram dados;

27 por isso é que a ira do Senhor se acendeu contra esta terra, para trazer sobre ela toda maldição que está escrita neste livro;

28 e o Senhor os arrancou da sua terra com ira, com furor e com grande indignação, e os lançou em outra terra, como neste dia se vê.

29 As coisas encobertas pertencem ao Senhor nosso Deus, mas as reveladas nos pertencem a nós e a nossos filhos para sempre, para que observemos todas as palavras desta lei.

Word

  

'Word,' as in Isaiah 9:8, signifies the doctrine of internal and external worship. 'Word,' as in Psalms 119:6-17, stands for doctrine in general.

'The Word,' as in Psalms 147:18, signifies divine good united with divine truth.

The whole Word is nothing but the doctrine of love towards the Lord, and love towards our neighbor, as in Matthew 22.

Psalms 18

Studie

   

1 I love you, Yahweh, my strength.

2 Yahweh is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge; my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower.

3 I call on Yahweh, who is worthy to be praised; and I am saved from my enemies.

4 The cords of death surrounded me. The floods of ungodliness made me afraid.

5 The cords of Sheol were around me. The snares of death came on me.

6 In my distress I called on Yahweh, and cried to my God. He heard my voice out of his temple. My cry before him came into his ears.

7 Then the earth shook and trembled. The foundations also of the mountains quaked and were shaken, because he was angry.

8 Smoke went out of his nostrils. Consuming fire came out of his mouth. Coals were kindled by it.

9 He bowed the heavens also, and came down. Thick darkness was under his feet.

10 He rode on a cherub, and flew. Yes, he soared on the wings of the wind.

11 He made darkness his hiding place, his pavilion around him, darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies.

12 At the brightness before him his thick clouds passed, hailstones and coals of fire.

13 Yahweh also thundered in the sky. The Most High uttered his voice: hailstones and coals of fire.

14 He sent out his arrows, and scattered them; Yes, great lightning bolts, and routed them.

15 Then the channels of waters appeared. The foundations of the world were laid bare at your rebuke, Yahweh, at the blast of the breath of your nostrils.

16 He sent from on high. He took me. He drew me out of many waters.

17 He delivered me from my strong enemy, from those who hated me; for they were too mighty for me.

18 They came on me in the day of my calamity, but Yahweh was my support.

19 He brought me forth also into a large place. He delivered me, because he delighted in me.

20 Yahweh has rewarded me according to my righteousness. According to the cleanness of my hands has he recompensed me.

21 For I have kept the ways of Yahweh, and have not wickedly departed from my God.

22 For all his ordinances were before me. I didn't put away his statutes from me.

23 I was also blameless with him. I kept myself from my iniquity.

24 Therefore Yahweh has rewarded me according to my righteousness, according to the cleanness of my hands in his eyesight.

25 With the merciful you will show yourself merciful. With the perfect man, you will show yourself perfect.

26 With the pure, you will show yourself pure. With the crooked you will show yourself shrewd.

27 For you will save the afflicted people, but the haughty eyes you will bring down.

28 For you will light my lamp, Yahweh. My God will light up my darkness.

29 For by you, I advance through a troop. By my God, I leap over a wall.

30 As for God, his way is perfect. The word of Yahweh is tried. He is a shield to all those who take refuge in him.

31 For who is God, except Yahweh? Who is a rock, besides our God,

32 the God who arms me with strength, and makes my way perfect?

33 He makes my feet like deer's feet, and sets me on my high places.

34 He teaches my hands to war, so that my arms bend a bow of bronze.

35 You have also given me the shield of your salvation. Your right hand sustains me. Your gentleness has made me great.

36 You have enlarged my steps under me, My feet have not slipped.

37 I will pursue my enemies, and overtake them. Neither will I turn again until they are consumed.

38 I will strike them through, so that they will not be able to rise. They shall fall under my feet.

39 For you have armed me with strength to the battle. You have subdued under me those who rose up against me.

40 You have also made my enemies turn their backs to me, that I might cut off those who hate me.

41 They cried, but there was none to save; even to Yahweh, but he didn't answer them.

42 Then I beat them small as the dust before the wind. I cast them out as the mire of the streets.

43 You have delivered me from the strivings of the people. You have made me the head of the nations. A people whom I have not known shall serve me.

44 As soon as they hear of me they shall obey me. The foreigners shall submit themselves to me.

45 The foreigners shall fade away, and shall come trembling out of their close places.

46 Yahweh lives; and blessed be my rock. Exalted be the God of my salvation,

47 even the God who executes vengeance for me, and subdues peoples under me.

48 He rescues me from my enemies. Yes, you lift me up above those who rise up against me. You deliver me from the violent man.

49 Therefore I will give thanks to you, Yahweh, among the nations, and will sing praises to your name.

50 He gives great deliverance to his king, and shows loving kindness to his anointed, to David and to his seed, forevermore. For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.
