In The Forgiveness of Sin, the great English Puritan John Owen opens the depths of Psalm 130 like a spiritual surgeon of the soul—revealing the bitter pain of sin and the matchless balm of divine mercy.
在《罪的赦免》一书中，伟大的英国清教徒约翰·欧文像一位灵魂的属灵外科医生一样，揭示了诗篇130篇的深奥之处——显明了罪的苦痛和神圣怜悯无与伦比的慰藉。

This is not dry theology, but an intensely personal, pastoral, and penetrating exposition that flows out of Owen’s own dark night of the soul.
这不是枯燥的神学，而是一种极其个人化、教牧性且深刻的阐释，源于欧文自己灵魂的黑夜。
In fact, as he himself confessed, it was during a season of near death and spiritual affliction that the words “But there is forgiveness with Thee, that Thou mayest be feared” (Ps. 130:4) became light and life to his soul.
事实上，正如祂自己所承认的那样，正是在濒临死亡和属灵苦难的时期，“但在你有赦免之恩，要叫人敬畏你”（诗篇 130:4）这句话成了祂灵魂的光和生命。
From that furnace of affliction came these sermons—written not merely from a scholar’s desk, but from a heart that had wrestled with guilt, clung to grace, and found peace in the blood of Christ.
这些讲章出自那苦难的熔炉——它们不仅仅写于学者的书桌旁，更出自一颗曾与罪疚搏斗、紧抓恩典并在基督宝血中找到平安的心。
Owen leads the reader step by step through the experience of the contrite believer: the depths of despair over sin, the trembling cry to God, the necessity of forgiveness, and the bold hope that arises when the soul lays hold of divine mercy through Christ the Mediator.
欧文一步步带领读者经历痛悔信徒的体验：对罪的绝望深渊，向神的战兢呼求，赦免的必要性，以及当灵魂藉着中保基督抓住神圣怜悯时所产生的勇敢盼望。
He unfolds how true gospel forgiveness is revealed only to faith, how it cannot be presumed upon nor separated from the fear of God, and how waiting upon the Lord, though painful, is always rewarded with His abundant redemption.
祂阐明了真正的福音赦免如何只向信心显明，如何不能被擅自假定，也不能与敬畏神分离，以及等候主，虽然痛苦，但总能得到祂丰盛救赎的奖赏。
What makes this work especially powerful is Owen’s gift for exposing the inner workings of the conscience and the subtle dangers of self-deception.
使这部著作尤为有力的是欧文揭示良心内在运作和自我欺骗微妙危险的天赋。
He provides not only theological clarity but also spiritual direction—charting a course for sin-entangled souls back to hope, assurance, and joy.
祂不仅提供了神学上的清晰度，也提供了属灵的指引——为被罪缠绕的灵魂指明了一条回归盼望、确据和喜乐的道路。
With pastoral tenderness and precision, he offers the trembling sinner solid ground: that God has not only made a way for forgiveness, but delights to forgive, that He may be rightly feared and loved.
祂以教牧的温柔和精准，为战兢的罪人提供了坚实的根基：神不仅开辟了赦免的道路，而且乐于赦免，好叫祂被正当地敬畏和爱戴。
For any who have ever wept over their sin, doubted their standing before God, or longed to recover the joy of salvation, this book is a companion and a guide.
对于任何曾为自己的罪哭泣、怀疑自己在神面前的地位，或渴望恢复救恩喜乐的人来说，这本书都是一位同伴和向导。
Owen helps us see that the deepest comfort comes not from minimizing our guilt, but from magnifying the mercy of God in Christ.
欧文帮助我们看到，最深的安慰并非来自减轻我们的罪疚感，而是来自彰显神在基督里的怜悯。
The Forgiveness of Sin is a treasure of experiential Reformed theology—meaty, convicting, and filled with gospel hope.
《罪的赦免》是经验性改革宗神学的瑰宝——内容丰富，令人信服，充满福音的盼望。
The original imprimatur of the volume bears date 1668; and such, according to all authorities, was the year in which it first appeared.
该卷的原始出版许可日期为1668年；据所有权威人士称，这正是它首次出现的年份。
We have seen an edition printed in 1669, and another printed in 1680.
我们见过1669年印刷的版本，以及1680年印刷的另一个版本。
The latter must correspond with, and must have been printed from the first edition, for it contains some sentences quite obscure and incomplete, which are corrected in the edition of 1669.
后者必定与初版相符，并且必定是根据初版印刷的，因为它包含一些相当晦涩和不完整的句子，这些句子在1669年的版本中得到了修正。
It is singular, also, that every modern reprint should embody the inaccuracies of the first edition.—ED.
同样奇特的是，每一个现代重印本都包含了初版的错误。——编者注。
