1 | God's thoughts toward US, or us to HIs | Ps 139:17 | Joanne | 11426 | ||
I have seen translations that suggest God's thoughts TOWARD us, for us, are precious. Vs. His thoughts are precious for us. Any comments? | ||||||
2 | God's thoughts toward US, or us to HIs | Ps 139:17 | Ray | 15523 | ||
Hi Joanne, I think that God's thoughts toward us are precious for us if we are living in His will.:) Psalm 139:17 does not say that to me, however. I would say that His thoughts are precious to us. In regard to the word TOWARD in your question, I would have you compare this passage with Psalm 40:5 where it speaks of "Thy thoughts toward us." "There is none to compare with Thee; If I would declare and speak of them, They would be too numerous to count." When we go to sleep at night and think of the things of God and think of what He has told us in His word about Himself, "How vast is the sum of them! If I should count them..."---we fall asleep and when we wake we are still with Him*.See Psalm 139:17 And as Psalm 40:5 says, "Many, O Lord my God, are the wonders which Thou hast done, And Thy thoughts toward us; There is none to compare with Thee*. If I would declare and speak of them, They would be too numerous to count." (The star is for comparison.) Psalm 139:2b says, "Thou dost understand my thought from afar..." and verse 17 says,"How precious also are Thy thoughts to me, O God!" |
