105:37 他領自己的百姓帶銀子金子出來;他支派中沒有一個軟弱的。
105:38 他們出來的時候,埃及人便歡喜;原來埃及人懼怕他們。
105:39 他鋪張雲彩當遮蓋,夜間使火光照。
105:40 他們一求,他就使鵪鶉飛來,並用天上的糧食叫他們飽足。
105:41 他打開磐石,水就湧出;在乾旱之處,水流成河。
105:42 這都因他記念他的聖言和他的僕人亞伯拉罕。
105:43 他帶領百姓歡樂而出,帶領選民歡呼前往。
105:44 他將列國的地賜給他們,他們便承受眾民勞碌得來的,
105:45 好使他們遵他的律例,守他的律法。你們要讚美耶和華!
37 He
brought out Israel, laden with silver and gold,
and from among their tribes no one faltered.
38 Egypt was glad when they left,
because dread of Israel had fallen on them.
39 He
spread out a cloud as a covering,
and a fire to give light at night.
40 They asked, and he brought them quail;
he fed them well with the bread of heaven.
41 He opened the rock, and water gushed out;
it flowed like a river in the desert.
42 For
he remembered his holy promise
given to his servant Abraham.
43 He brought out his people with rejoicing,
his chosen ones with shouts of joy;
44 he gave them the lands of the nations,
and they fell heir to what others had toiled for—
45 that they might keep his precepts
and observe his laws.
Praise the Lord.

上帝拯救以色列人出埃及進入迦南地,是要完成祂和亞伯拉罕所立的約,見證祂是信實的上帝,也讓亞伯拉罕的子孫和上帝有美好的關係,就是透過遵行律法來見證上帝的守約施慈。
正如今日我們是因這耶穌基督與上帝建立關係,是透過耶穌基督所完成的而享受到上帝所賜的各樣福分。照我們自己的能耐是無法得著的,但是透過基督我們卻可以享受到,這就是上帝做事的定則。
因此,我們今日要靠耶穌基督來到上帝面前,享受上帝在基督裡所賜的一切福分!因為,上帝沒有為我們預備第二條路了,只有耶穌基督是蒙恩與得福的道路、真理和生命!我們要為此呼喊:哈利路亞!
