What can bring you real peace and joy?What is it to completely entrust oneself to God?
什么能带给你真正的平安与喜乐？何谓将自己完全交托给上帝呢？
You turned my wailing into dancing; you . . . clothed me with joy.
Psalm 30:11
祢已将我的哀哭变为跳舞，……给我披上喜乐。-诗篇30篇11节

Kim began battling breast cancer in 2013. Four days after her treatment ended, doctors diagnosed her with a progressive lung disease and gave her three to five years to live. She grieved, sobbing prayers as she processed her emotions before God for the first year. By the time I met Kim in 2015, she had surrendered her situation to Him and radiated contagious joy and peace. Though some days are still hard, God continues to transform her heart-wrenching suffering into a beautiful testimony of hope-filled praise as she encourages others.
从2013年起，金萍就开始对抗乳癌，但在结束治疗四天后，又被诊断出患有进行性肺病，只剩下3至5年的寿命。知道消息的第一年，金萍学习接受这事实，在上帝面前哀伤痛哭地祷告。到了2015年我遇见金萍时，她已将自己的处境完全交托给上帝，她活出了喜乐与平安，也影响周围的人。虽然有时日子依旧难熬，但上帝不断将她痛苦的煎熬，转化为满怀盼望的美好见证，让她能藉此激励他人。
Even when we’re in dire circumstances, God can turn our wailing into dancing. Though His healing won’t always look or feel like we’d hoped or expected, we can be confident in God’s ways (Psalm 30:1–3). No matter how tear-stained our path may be, we have countless reasons to praise Him (v. 4). We can rejoice in God, as He secures our confident faith (vv. 5–7). We can cry out for His mercy (vv. 8–10), celebrating the hope He’s brought to many weeping worshipers. Only God can transform wails of despair into vibrant joy that doesn’t depend on circumstances (vv. 11–12).
纵然我们处于悲惨的困境中，上帝也能将我们的哀哭变为欢乐的舞蹈。虽然祂所施行的医治，并不总是符合我们的期盼，但我们仍可信靠上帝的作为（诗篇30篇1-3节）。无论我们一路走来流了多少的泪水，却仍有无数的理由可以称颂上帝（4节）。我们可以在上帝面前欢呼喜乐，因祂使我们信心坚定（5-7节）。我们可以呼求祂的怜悯（8-10节），称颂祂将盼望赐给在伤恸中敬拜上帝的人。唯有上帝能将绝望的哭泣转化为满有活力、不受环境影响的喜乐（11-12节）。
As our merciful God comforts us in our sorrow, He envelops us in peace and empowers us to extend compassion toward others and ourselves. Our loving and faithful Lord can and does turn our wailing into worship that can lead to heart-deep trust, praise, and maybe even joyful dancing.
我们在哀痛中，慈爱的上帝会安慰我们、以平安环绕我们，并加添我们力量，使我们经历祂的怜悯，并以怜悯待人。这位慈爱且信实的主，能将我们的哀哭转化为敬拜，让我们能从内心深处全然倚赖祂、颂赞祂，甚至欢欣地舞蹈！
God, believe that you can turn our mourning into worship.
Please be closely connected with us.
上帝啊，相信祢能将我们的哀哭变为敬拜，求祢与我们紧密相连。

Psalm 30    NIV

30 I will exalt you, Lord,for you lifted me out of the depths and did not let my enemies gloat over me. 2 Lord my God, I called to you for help,and you healed me. 3 You, Lord, brought me up from the realm of the dead;you spared me from going down to the pit. 4 Sing the praises of the Lord, you his faithful people;praise his holy name. 5 For his anger lasts only a moment,but his favor lasts a lifetime;weeping may stay for the night,but rejoicing comes in the morning. 6 When I felt secure, I said,“I will never be shaken.” 7 Lord, when you favored me,you made my royal mountain stand firm;but when you hid your face,I was dismayed. 8 To you, Lord, I called;to the Lord I cried for mercy: 9 “What is gained if I am silenced,if I go down to the pit?Will the dust praise you?Will it proclaim your faithfulness? 10 Hear, Lord, and be merciful to me;Lord, be my help.” 11 You turned my wailing into dancing;you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy, 12 that my heart may sing your praises and not be silent.Lord my God, I will praise you forever.

诗篇 30

30耶和华啊，我要尊崇你，因为你曾提拔我，不叫仇敌向我夸耀。2 耶和华我的神啊，我曾呼求你，你医治了我。3 耶和华啊，你曾把我的灵魂从阴间救上来，使我存活，不至于下坑。4 耶和华的圣民哪，你们要歌颂他，称赞他可记念的圣名。5 因为他的怒气不过是转眼之间，他的恩典乃是一生之久，一宿虽然有哭泣，早晨便必欢呼。6 至于我，我凡事平顺，便说：“我永不动摇。”7 耶和华啊，你曾施恩，叫我的江山稳固；你掩了面，我就惊惶。8 耶和华啊，我曾求告你，我向耶和华恳求说：9 “我被害流血，下到坑中，有什么益处呢？尘土岂能称赞你，传说你的诚实吗？10 耶和华啊，求你应允我，怜恤我！耶和华啊，求你帮助我！”11 你已将我的哀哭变为跳舞，将我的麻衣脱去，给我披上喜乐，12 好叫我的灵歌颂你，并不住声。耶和华我的神啊，我要称谢你，直到永远！

There were many occasions (though often we’re not given specifics) when David was stricken with illness because of his sins (Psalms 6:1–2; 38:1–3; 41:3–4). Some scholars believe David wrote Psalm 30 out of his experience in 1 Chronicles 21 (see also 2 Samuel 24). In his pride—trusting in his own large army and not in God—David counted his army to show how powerful he was (Psalm 30:6–8). God punished him with a life-threatening illness but mercifully delivered him in response to his prayer (vv. 3–12). Following this, David bought a piece of land and dedicated it as the site for the temple (1 Chronicles 21:25–26; 22:1). The superscription indicates David wrote Psalm 30 for the dedication service: “A psalm. A song. For the dedication of the temple.”
虽然我们无法确知具体详情，但圣经有多处暗示大卫因犯罪而患病（诗篇6篇1-2节，38篇1-3节，41篇3-4节）。有些学者认为，大卫在历代志上21章的经历促使他写下诗篇30篇（参阅撒母耳记下24章）。那时，大卫骄傲地依赖自己的大军而非倚靠上帝，所以他数点军队，显示自己多么强大（诗篇30篇6-8节）。上帝虽用危及生命的疾病惩罚大卫，但仍回应大卫的祷告而施怜悯拯救（3-12节）。在此之后，大卫买了一块土地，想要为上帝建造圣殿（历代志上21章25-26节，22章1节）。诗篇30篇的题注表明，这首诗是大卫为了圣殿的奉献礼所写的：“大卫的诗：献殿之歌”（新译本）。
