For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth,
耶和华的眼目遍察全地,
to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect towards him.
要显示祂的大能,帮助那些心里完全归向祂的人。

- The immediateness of it; ‘his eyes,’ his own eyes, not another’s. Not like princes, who see by their servants’ eyes more than by their own, what is done in their kingdoms; his care is immediate. Though angels are ministers of his providence, the guardians and watchers of the world, yet God is their captain, and is always himself upon the watch.
神的眷顾的直接性;”祂的眼睛”,是祂自己的眼睛,而非他人的。不像君王们,他们多借他人之眼而非自己的眼睛来察看他们国中所发生的事;祂的看顾是直接的。虽然天使是祂眷顾的执事,是世界的守护者和看守者,但神是他们的统帅,始终亲自守望。
- Quickness and speed of providence; ‘run.’ His eyes do not only walk, but run the round; they are not slumbering eyes, nor drowsy eyelids; their motion is quick and nimble.
神的眷顾的迅速与速度;”奔跑”。祂的眼目不仅行走,更是奔跑巡视;这不是打盹的眼睛,也不是昏昏欲睡的眼皮;其运动迅速敏捷。
- Extent of providence; ‘the whole earth;’ all things in the earth, all the hairs on the heads of these men: the meanest worm as well as the mightiest prince; the lowest shrub as well as the tallest cedar; every cranny, corner, or chink of the earth.
神的眷顾的范围;”遍地”;地上的万物,人头上的每一根头发:最微小的虫子与最强大的君王;最低矮的灌木与最高大的香柏树;地上的每一个缝隙、角落或裂缝。
- Diligence of providence; ‘to and fro.’ His care is repeated, he looks this way and that way, again and again; his eyes are not confined to one place, fixed on one object, but are always rolling about from one place to another.
神的眷顾的勤勉;”往来巡视”。祂的看顾反复不断,祂看这里看那里,一遍又一遍;祂的眼目不局限于一处,不固定于一物,而是不断地从一处转到另一处。
- The efficacy of his providence; his care doth engage his strength; he doth not only discover dangers, but prevent them; he hath eyes to see, and power to order all things according to his pleasure; wise to see, and strong to save.
神的眷顾的功效;祂的看顾运用祂的能力;祂不仅发现危险,更防止危险;祂有眼目察看,有能力按祂的旨意安排万事;有智慧察看,有力量拯救。
