5:3 耶和華啊,早晨你必聽我的聲音;早晨我必向你陳明我的心意,並要警醒!
5:4 因為你不是喜悅惡事的上帝,惡人不能與你同居。
5:5 狂傲人不能站在你眼前;凡作孽的,都是你所恨惡的。
5:6 說謊言的,你必滅絕;好流人血弄詭詐的,都為耶和華所憎惡。
5:7 至於我,我必憑你豐盛的慈愛進入你的居所;我必存敬畏你的心向你的聖殿下拜。
3 In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice;
in the morning I lay my requests before you
and wait expectantly.
4 For you are not a God who is pleased with wickedness;
with you, evil people are not welcome.
5 The arrogant cannot stand
in your presence.
You hate all who do wrong;
6 you destroy those who tell lies.
The bloodthirsty and deceitful
you, Lord, detest.
7 But I, by your great love,
can come into your house;
in reverence I bow down
toward your holy temple.
in the morning I lay my requests before you
and wait expectantly.
4 For you are not a God who is pleased with wickedness;
with you, evil people are not welcome.
5 The arrogant cannot stand
in your presence.
You hate all who do wrong;
6 you destroy those who tell lies.
The bloodthirsty and deceitful
you, Lord, detest.
7 But I, by your great love,
can come into your house;
in reverence I bow down
toward your holy temple.

敬拜上帝是每一天的,不只是主日早上的崇拜才是禮拜,只要我們與上帝相交的時候,都是禮拜!就像詩人所說:「耶和華啊,早晨你必聽我的聲音;早晨我必向你陳明我的心意,並要警醒!」
與上帝有相交的生命,就會知道上帝恨惡的是甚麼,所以詩人很快說出:「因為你不是喜悅惡事的上帝,惡人不能與你同居。狂傲人不能站在你眼前;凡作孽的,都是你所恨惡的。說謊言的,你必滅絕;好流人血弄詭詐的,都為耶和華所憎惡。」
然而詩人也明白靠自己使無法得著上帝的喜悅,所以說出上帝的心意:「至於我,我必憑你豐盛的慈愛進入你的居所;我必存敬畏你的心向你的聖殿下拜。」
也就是說人可以敬拜上帝,是上帝主動的作為,因為人「必憑你豐盛的慈愛進入你的居所」,也唯有如此,人才可以「存敬畏你的心向你的聖殿下拜」,也就是說敬拜上帝!只要有敬拜上帝,不管那裏就是「聖殿」,就是上帝的居所!
