9219.“因为我是仁慈的”表这种帮助完全来自祂,是出于怜悯。这从“仁慈”的含义清楚可知,“仁慈”当论及主时,是指那帮助完全来自祂。之所以说出于怜悯,是因为来自主的一切事物皆出于怜悯。主就其本质存在而言,是神性之爱;当这爱展示给那些陷入悲惨的人,它被称为怜悯;因此,祂展示给全人类的爱就被称为怜悯;人类被禁锢在悲惨状态中,因为人类的自我无非是邪恶(210,215,874-876,987,1581,5660,5786,8480节)。
Potts(1905-1910) 9219
9219. For I am merciful. That this signifies that from Him is everything of aid, from mercy, is evident from the signification of "being merciful," when said of the Lord, as being that from Him is everything of aid. That it is said to be from mercy is because all things which are from the Lord are from mercy, for the very being of the Lord is Divine love, and love is called "mercy" when it is shown toward those who are in miseries, thus relatively to the whole human race, for this is set fast in miseries, because its own is nothing but evil (n. 210, 215, 874-876, 987, 1581, 5660, 5786, 8480).
Elliott(1983-1999) 9219
9219. 'For I am merciful' means that such help comes wholly from Him, out of mercy. This is clear from the meaning of 'being merciful', since it refers to the Lord, as the truth that help comes wholly from Him. The reason why out of mercy is meant is that everything done by the Lord is an act of mercy. The Lord in His Essential Being (Esse) is Divine Love; and love, when it is shown towards those in a state of wretchedness, is called mercy. Thus His Love as it is shown to the whole human race is called mercy; for the human race is set fast in a state of misery, since the human self or proprium is nothing but evil, 210, 215, 874-876, 987, 1581, 5660, 5786, 8480.
Latin(1748-1756) 9219
9219. `Quia misericors Ego': quod significet quod ab Ipso omne opis ex misericordia, constat ex significatione `misericors esse cum de Domino, quod sit quod ab Ipso omne opis; quod ex misericordia, est quia omnia quae a Domino, sunt ex misericordia; ipsum enim Esse Domini est Divinus Amor; et amor vocatur misericordia cum erga illos qui in miseriis sunt, ita respective ad totum genus humanum, nam hoc in miseriis constitutum est; proprium enim ejus non est nisi quam malum, n. 210, 215, 874-876, 987, 1581, 5660, 5786, 8480.
