詩篇 1
Psalm 1

最愛耶和華律法的人真是有福

The Way of the Righteous and the Wicked

1

這人真是有福!他不從惡人的計謀,不站罪人的道路,不坐傲慢之人的座位。

Blessed is the manwho walks not in the counsel of the wicked,nor stands in the way of sinners,nor sits in the seat of scoffers;

2

相反,耶和華的律法是他的最愛;耶和華的律法,他晝夜默誦。

but his delight is in the law of the LORD,and on his law he meditates day and night.

3

他像一棵樹,栽種在園子水道旁,按時候結果子,葉子總不枯萎;他所做的事全都順利。

He is like a treeplanted by streams of waterthat yields its fruit in its season,and its leaf does not wither.In all that he does, he prospers.

4

惡人卻不是這樣,反倒像糠秕被風吹散。

The wicked are not so,but are like chaff that the wind drives away.

5

因此惡人在審判中將站立不住,罪人在義人的群體中也是這樣。

Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous;

6

因為耶和華看顧義人的道路,惡人的道路卻要滅亡。

for the LORD knows the way of the righteous,but the way of the wicked will perish.

2
詩篇 2
Psalm 2

耶和華與他的受膏者

The Reign of the LORD's Anointed

1

列國為何喧囂?眾民為何徒然謀算?

Why do the nations rageand the peoples plot in vain?

2

地上列王站立起來,統治者聚集在一起,要對抗耶和華和他的受膏者。

The kings of the earth set themselves,and the rulers take counsel together,against the LORD and against his Anointed, saying,

3

說:“我們要扯斷他們的軛繩,從我們身上甩掉他們的繩索!”

“Let us burst their bonds apartand cast away their cords from us.”

4

那坐在天上的發笑,主要譏笑他們。

He who sits in the heavens laughs;the Lord holds them in derision.

5

那時,他要在怒氣中對他們說話,在震怒中驚嚇他們,說:

Then he will speak to them in his wrath,and terrify them in his fury, saying,

6

“我已選立我的君王在錫安—我的聖山!”

“As for me, I have set my Kingon Zion, my holy hill.”

7

被選立的君王說:“我要宣告耶和華的諭旨,他曾對我說:‘你是我的兒子,我今天生了你。

I will tell of the decree:The LORD said to me, “You are my Son;today I have begotten you.

8

你當求我,我就會把列國賜給你為產業,把地極給你為財產。

Ask of me, and I will make the nations your heritage,and the ends of the earth your possession.

9

你將用鐵杖擊毀他們;你將打碎他們,如同陶匠的瓦器。’”

You shall break them with a rod of ironand dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.”

10

現在,列王啊,應當醒悟!地上的審判官啊,當受警戒!

Now therefore, O kings, be wise;be warned, O rulers of the earth.

11

你們要心存敬畏侍奉耶和華,帶著戰兢的心而快樂。

Serve the LORD with fear,and rejoice with trembling.

12

要親吻子,免得他一旦發怒,你們就在道路中滅亡;因為他的怒火必快快燃起。所有投靠他的人,真是有福!

Kiss the Son,lest he be angry, and you perish in the way,for his wrath is quickly kindled.Blessed are all who take refuge in him.

詩篇 3
Psalm 3

大衛求救助的禱告

Save Me, O My God

大衛逃避他兒子押沙龍時所作的詩。

A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son.

1

耶和華啊,我的敵人竟這麼多!許多人起來攻擊我;

O LORD, how many are my foes!Many are rising against me;

2

許多人議論我,說:“ 神不會拯救他。”(細拉)

many are saying of my soul,there is no salvation for him in God. Selah

3

但你耶和華是我的盾牌,我的榮耀,是你使我抬起頭來。

But you, O LORD, are a shield about me,my glory, and the lifter of my head.

4

我揚聲呼求耶和華,他就從他的聖山應允我。(細拉)

I cried aloud to the LORD,and he answered me from his holy hill. Selah

5

我躺下,就安睡;我醒來,因耶和華扶持我。

I lay down and slept;I woke again, for the LORD sustained me.

6

雖有萬人包圍攻擊我,我也不害怕。

I will not be afraid of many thousands of peoplewho have set themselves against me all around.

7

耶和華啊,求你起來!我的 神啊,求你救我!是的,你擊打了我所有仇敵的臉頰,打斷了惡人的牙齒。

Arise, O LORD!Save me, O my God!For you strike all my enemies on the cheek;you break the teeth of the wicked.

8

救恩屬於耶和華,願你的恩福歸給你的子民。(細拉)

Salvation belongs to the LORD;your blessing be on your people! Selah

詩篇 4
Psalm 4

大衛求救助的晚禱

Answer Me When I Call

大衛的詩,交給詩班長,用弦樂器伴奏。

To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments. A Psalm of David.

1

我公義的 神啊,當我呼求時,求你應允我!我在艱困中,你曾使我舒暢;求你恩待我,垂聽我的禱告!

Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness!You have given me relief when I was in distress.Be gracious to me and hear my prayer!

2

眾人啊,你們將我的榮耀變為羞辱,要到幾時呢?你們喜愛虛妄,尋求謊言,要到幾時呢?

O men, how long shall my honor be turned into shame?How long will you love vain words and seek after lies? Selah

3

你們要知道,耶和華已經把忠誠的人分別出來歸他自己,當我呼求耶和華,他必垂聽。

But know that the LORD has set apart the godly for himself;the LORD hears when I call to him.

4

你們發怒卻不要犯罪。你們躺臥時,當心中反省,靜默無聲。(細拉)

Be angry, and do not sin;ponder in your own hearts on your beds, and be silent. Selah

5

你們應當獻公義的祭,並要信靠耶和華。

Offer right sacrifices,and put your trust in the LORD.

6

許多人說:“誰能指示我們甚麼福祉呢?”耶和華啊,願你的面升起,照耀我們!

There are many who say, “Who will show us some good?Lift up the light of your face upon us, O LORD!”

7

你使我心中喜樂,勝過他們豐收穀物新酒的時候。

You have put more joy in my heartthan they have when their grain and wine abound.

8

我會平安躺臥入睡,因為只有你耶和華能使我安然居住。

In peace I will both lie down and sleep;for you alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety.

5
詩篇 5
Psalm 5

大衛求救助的晨禱

Lead Me in Your Righteousness

大衛的詩,交給詩班長,用管樂器伴奏。

To the choirmaster: for the flutes. A Psalm of David.

1

耶和華啊,求你張開耳朵聽我的話語,顧念我的歎息!

Give ear to my words, O LORD;consider my groaning.

2

我的王,我的 神啊,求你留心聽我呼救的聲音!因我向你祈禱。

Give attention to the sound of my cry,my King and my God,for to you do I pray.

3

耶和華啊,早晨求你聽我的聲音!早晨我向你陳明,渴望你的回應!

O LORD, in the morning you hear my voice;in the morning I prepare a sacrifice for you and watch.

4

因為你是不喜愛罪惡的 神,惡人不能與你同住;

For you are not a God who delights in wickedness;evil may not dwell with you.

5

狂傲的人不能在你眼前站立。你恨惡所有作惡的人,

The boastful shall not stand before your eyes;you hate all evildoers.

6

你要消滅說謊話的人;殺人流血和詭詐的人,耶和華都憎惡。

You destroy those who speak lies;the LORD abhors the bloodthirsty and deceitful man.

7

而我,卻因你豐盛的忠誠之愛進入你的殿,我要存敬畏你的心向你的聖殿下拜。

But I, through the abundance of your steadfast love,will enter your house.I will bow down toward your holy templein the fear of you.

8

耶和華啊,求你因我仇敵的緣故,按著你的公義引導我,在我面前修直你的路!

Lead me, O LORD, in your righteousnessbecause of my enemies;make your way straight before me.

9

因為,他們的口中沒有真話,他們的內心滿是毀滅,他們的喉嚨是敞開的墳墓,他們用舌頭播弄詭詐。

For there is no truth in their mouth;their inmost self is destruction;their throat is an open grave;they flatter with their tongue.

10

神啊,求你判決他們有罪!願他們因自己的詭計而倒下;願你因他們的許多過犯把他們趕出去,因為他們背叛了你。

Make them bear their guilt, O God;let them fall by their own counsels;because of the abundance of their transgressions cast them out,for they have rebelled against you.

11

願所有投靠你的人都喜樂,歡呼直到永遠!願你蔭蔽他們,讓愛你名的人都因你歡樂!

But let all who take refuge in you rejoice;let them ever sing for joy,and spread your protection over them,that those who love your name may exult in you.

12

因你要賜福給義人,耶和華啊,你要以恩典如盾牌圍護他!

For you bless the righteous, O LORD;you cover him with favor as with a shield.

6
詩篇 6
Psalm 6

大衛在悲苦中呼求耶和華拯救

O LORD, Deliver My Life

大衛的詩,交給詩班長,用弦樂器伴奏,採用“八音”的曲調。

To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments; according to The Sheminith. A Psalm of David.

1

耶和華啊,求你不要在怒氣中責備我,也不要在怒火中懲罰我!

O LORD, rebuke me not in your anger,nor discipline me in your wrath.

2

耶和華啊,求你恩待我!因為我衰弱。耶和華啊,求你醫治我!因為我的骨頭戰慄。

Be gracious to me, O LORD, for I am languishing;heal me, O LORD, for my bones are troubled.

3

我的心極其惶恐,而你,耶和華啊,還要等到幾時呢?

My soul also is greatly troubled.But you, O LORD—how long?

4

耶和華啊,求你轉回,求你搭救我!求你因你的忠誠之愛拯救我!

Turn, O LORD, deliver my life;save me for the sake of your steadfast love.

5

因為在死亡之地無人記得你;在陰間有誰讚美你呢?

For in death there is no remembrance of you;in Sheol who will give you praise?

6

我因呻吟而疲倦,我因整夜流淚把床漂起,眼淚濕透床榻。

I am weary with my moaning;every night I flood my bed with tears;I drench my couch with my weeping.

7

我的眼睛因憂傷而耗損,因我所有的敵人而衰殘。

My eye wastes away because of grief;it grows weak because of all my foes.

8

你們所有作惡的人,離開我吧!因為耶和華垂聽我哀哭的聲音。

Depart from me, all you workers of evil,for the LORD has heard the sound of my weeping.

9

耶和華垂聽我的懇求,耶和華應允我的禱告。

The LORD has heard my plea;the LORD accepts my prayer.

10

我所有的仇敵都要蒙羞,非常驚慌;他們將要轉回,忽然蒙羞。

All my enemies shall be ashamed and greatly troubled;they shall turn back and be put to shame in a moment.

7
詩篇 7
Psalm 7

大衛呼求 神施行公義審判

In You Do I Take Refuge

大衛因便雅憫人古實的話,向耶和華唱的激動曲。

A Shiggaion of David, which he sang to the LORD concerning the words of Cush, a Benjaminite.

1

耶和華我的 神啊,我投靠你!求你拯救我脫離所有迫害我的人,求你搭救我;

O LORD my God, in you do I take refuge;save me from all my pursuers and deliver me,

2

免得他們像獅子一樣撕裂我,把我撕碎卻無人搭救。

lest like a lion they tear my soul apart,rending it in pieces, with none to deliver.

3

耶和華我的 神啊,若我做了這事,若我雙手中有罪惡;

O LORD my God, if I have done this,if there is wrong in my hands,

4

若我以惡對待我的盟友,卻搭救無故敵對我的人;

if I have repaid my friend with evilor plundered my enemy without cause,

5

就任憑仇敵追趕我,直到追上,把我的性命踐踏在地上,又使我的尊榮歸於塵土!(細拉)

let the enemy pursue my soul and overtake it,and let him trample my life to the groundand lay my glory in the dust. Selah

6

耶和華啊,求你在怒中起來,求你挺身抵擋我敵人的暴怒!我的 神啊,求你興起,出令審判!

Arise, O LORD, in your anger;lift yourself up against the fury of my enemies;awake for me; you have appointed a judgment.

7

眾民的群體要環繞你,求你轉回高處,治理他們。

Let the assembly of the peoples be gathered about you;over it return on high.

8

耶和華要審判眾民,耶和華啊,求你按照我的公義,照著我心中的正直審判我!

The LORD judges the peoples;judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousnessand according to the integrity that is in me.

9

願惡人的惡止息,願你使義人堅立!公義的 神啊,是你察驗人的心腸肺腑!

Oh, let the evil of the wicked come to an end,and may you establish the righteous—you who test the minds and hearts,O righteous God!

10

神是我的盾牌,他拯救心裡正直的人。

My shield is with God,who saves the upright in heart.

11

神是公義的審判者,他是天天對惡人發義怒的 神。

God is a righteous judge,and a God who feels indignation every day.

12

人若不轉回,他要磨快他的刀劍;他的弓已上弦,預備妥當。

If a man does not repent, God will whet his sword;he has bent and readied his bow;

13

他預備了致命的武器,做好了帶火的箭。

he has prepared for him his deadly weapons,making his arrows fiery shafts.

14

看哪,他經歷產痛生出罪惡;他懷的是惡毒,生的是虛謊。

Behold, the wicked man conceives eviland is pregnant with mischiefand gives birth to lies.

15

他掘了坑,又再挖深,竟掉在自己所設的陷阱裡。

He makes a pit, digging it out,and falls into the hole that he has made.

16

他的惡毒將轉回到自己頭上,他的凶暴要落在自己的頭頂。

His mischief returns upon his own head,and on his own skull his violence descends.

17

我要按耶和華的公義讚美他;我要歌頌至高者耶和華的名。

I will give to the LORD the thanks due to his righteousness,and I will sing praise to the name of the LORD, the Most High.

8
詩篇 8
Psalm 8

耶和華的榮美和人的尊貴

How Majestic Is Your Name

大衛的詩,交給詩班長,採用“迦特”的曲調。

To the choirmaster: according to The Gittith. A Psalm of David.

1

耶和華我們的主啊,你的名在全地何等尊榮!你將你的榮美彰顯於天。

O LORD, our Lord,how majestic is your name in all the earth!You have set your glory above the heavens.

2

因你敵人的緣故,你從孩童和乳兒的口中預備了讚美;使仇敵和報仇的人閉口無言。

Out of the mouth of babies and infants,you have established strength because of your foes,to still the enemy and the avenger.

3

我觀看你手指所造的天;和你所安置的月亮星宿;

When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers,the moon and the stars, which you have set in place,

4

人算甚麼,你竟記得他;世人算甚麼,你竟眷顧他。

what is man that you are mindful of him,and the son of man that you care for him?

5

你使他比天使稍微小一點,賜給他榮耀尊貴做冠冕。

Yet you have made him a little lower than the heavenly beingsand crowned him with glory and honor.

6

你使他統管你手所造的,使萬物服從在他的腳下—

You have given him dominion over the works of your hands;you have put all things under his feet,

7

所有的牛羊、田野的走獸、

all sheep and oxen,and also the beasts of the field,

8

天空的飛鳥和海裡的魚,就是行經海道的水族。

the birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea,whatever passes along the paths of the seas.

9

耶和華我們的主啊,你的名在全地何等尊榮!

O LORD, our Lord,how majestic is your name in all the earth!

9
詩篇 9
Psalm 9

歌頌耶和華公義的審判

I Will Recount Your Wonderful Deeds

大衛的詩,交給詩班長,採用“喪子”的曲調。

To the choirmaster: according to Muth-labben. A Psalm of David.

1

我要全心讚美耶和華;我要述說你一切奇妙的作為!

I will give thanks to the LORD with my whole heart;I will recount all of your wonderful deeds.

2

至高者啊,我要因你歡欣快樂;我要歌頌你的名!

I will be glad and exult in you;I will sing praise to your name, O Most High.

3

我仇敵轉身敗退的時候,就在你面前跌倒滅亡。

When my enemies turn back,they stumble and perish before your presence.

4

因你為我主持了公道;你坐在寶座上按公義審判。

For you have maintained my just cause;you have sat on the throne, giving righteous judgment.

5

你斥責列國,滅絕惡人,抹掉他們的名號,直到永永遠遠。

You have rebuked the nations; you have made the wicked perish;you have blotted out their name forever and ever.

6

仇敵被消滅,荒廢到永遠,你拆除他們的城,他們的名號也已滅沒。

The enemy came to an end in everlasting ruins;their cities you rooted out;the very memory of them has perished.

7

耶和華卻永遠為王,他為審判設立他的寶座。

But the LORD sits enthroned forever;he has established his throne for justice,

8

他要按公義審判世人,按正直判決眾民。

and he judges the world with righteousness;he judges the peoples with uprightness.

9

耶和華是受欺壓者避難的高處,危難時避難的高處。

The LORD is a stronghold for the oppressed,a stronghold in times of trouble.

10

耶和華啊,認識你名的人要倚靠你!因為你沒有離棄尋求你的人。

And those who know your name put their trust in you,for you, O LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you.

11

你們當歌頌住在錫安的耶和華;在萬民中宣揚他的作為。

Sing praises to the LORD, who sits enthroned in Zion!Tell among the peoples his deeds!

12

因為他追討血債,顧念困苦的人,沒有忘記他們的哀號。

For he who avenges blood is mindful of them;he does not forget the cry of the afflicted.

13

耶和華啊,求你恩待我!看那恨我之人加給我的苦難,救拔我脫離死亡之門。

Be gracious to me, O LORD!See my affliction from those who hate me,O you who lift me up from the gates of death,

14

好叫我述說你一切可頌讚的事,我要在女兒錫安的城門,因你的拯救歡欣。

that I may recount all your praises,that in the gates of the daughter of ZionI may rejoice in your salvation.

15

列國掉進自己所掘的坑,他們的腳陷入自己暗設的羅網。

The nations have sunk in the pit that they made;in the net that they hid, their own foot has been caught.

16

耶和華已彰顯自己,他已施行審判;惡人被自己親手所造的羅網纏住。(希迦庸、細拉)

The LORD has made himself known; he has executed judgment;the wicked are snared in the work of their own hands. Higgaion. Selah

17

惡人將回歸陰間,所有忘記 神的列國都要這樣。

The wicked shall return to Sheol,all the nations that forget God.

18

因為窮人不會被永遠遺忘,貧苦人的指望也不會永遠落空。

For the needy shall not always be forgotten,and the hope of the poor shall not perish forever.

19

耶和華啊,求你起來!不要讓人得勝!讓列國在你面前受審判!

Arise, O LORD! Let not man prevail;let the nations be judged before you!

20

耶和華啊,求你使他們恐懼,讓列國知道,他們不過是人!(細拉)

Put them in fear, O LORD!Let the nations know that they are but men! Selah

10
詩篇 10
Psalm 10

祈求耶和華懲治惡人

Why Do You Hide Yourself?

1

耶和華啊,你為甚麼站在遠處?在患難的時候,你為甚麼隱藏?

Why, O LORD, do you stand far away?Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble?

2

惡人狂傲地追逼困苦人;他們陷入自己所設的計謀裡。

In arrogance the wicked hotly pursue the poor;let them be caught in the schemes that they have devised.

3

因為惡人誇耀他心中的欲望;貪心的人詛咒、輕視耶和華。

For the wicked boasts of the desires of his soul,and the one greedy for gain curses and renounces the LORD.

4

惡人趾高氣昂,說:“耶和華不會追究!”他所有的想法是:“沒有 神!”

In the pride of his face the wicked does not seek him;all his thoughts are, “There is no God.”

5

他的道路時時穩固,你的審判高超,卻莫他奈何。他對所有的仇敵都嗤之以鼻。

His ways prosper at all times;your judgments are on high, out of his sight;as for all his foes, he puffs at them.

6

他心裡說:“我不會動搖,世世代代都不會遭災禍。”

He says in his heart, “I shall not be moved;throughout all generations I shall not meet adversity.”

7

他滿口詛咒、謊言和欺壓;他的舌下盡是毒害與罪惡。

His mouth is filled with cursing and deceit and oppression;under his tongue are mischief and iniquity.

8

他在鄉村裡埋伏等候,在隱密處殺害無辜,他的眼睛窺伺受害者。

He sits in ambush in the villages;in hiding places he murders the innocent.His eyes stealthily watch for the helpless;

9

他埋伏在暗處,像獅子蹲伏在掩蔽處。他埋伏為要擄走困苦人,他收網就把困苦人擄去。

he lurks in ambush like a lion in his thicket;he lurks that he may seize the poor;he seizes the poor when he draws him into his net.

10

他屈身蹲伏,受害者就倒在他的暴力下。

The helpless are crushed, sink down,and fall by his might.

11

他心裡說:“ 神已經忘記。他掩面永遠不看。”

He says in his heart, “God has forgotten,he has hidden his face, he will never see it.”

12

耶和華啊,求你起來!神啊,求你舉手!不要忘記困苦人。

Arise, O LORD; O God, lift up your hand;forget not the afflicted.

13

惡人為甚麼藐視 神?他心裡說:“你不會追究!”

Why does the wicked renounce Godand say in his heart, “You will not call to account”?

14

其實你已經看見,毒害與愁苦,你垂顧並掌握,受害者把自己交託你,你向來是孤兒的幫助者。

But you do see, for you note mischief and vexation,that you may take it into your hands;to you the helpless commits himself;you have been the helper of the fatherless.

15

求你打斷惡人和壞人的手臂;求你徹底追究他的罪惡。

Break the arm of the wicked and evildoer;call his wickedness to account till you find none.

16

耶和華是王,直到永永遠遠;列國已從他的地上滅亡。

The LORD is king forever and ever;the nations perish from his land.

17

耶和華啊,困苦人的願望你已聽見;你要鼓勵他們,側耳傾聽,

O LORD, you hear the desire of the afflicted;you will strengthen their heart; you will incline your ear

18

為孤兒和受欺壓者申冤,使地上的人不再施行恐嚇。

to do justice to the fatherless and the oppressed,so that man who is of the earth may strike terror no more.

11
詩篇 11
Psalm 11

耶和華是正直人的倚靠

The LORD Is in His Holy Temple

大衛的詩,交給詩班長。

To the choirmaster. Of David.

1

我投靠耶和華,你們怎麼對我說:“飛鳥,逃到自己的山裡去吧!”

In the LORD I take refuge;how can you say to my soul,“Flee like a bird to your mountain,

2

因為,惡人彎弓搭箭,從暗處射殺心裡正直的人!

for behold, the wicked bend the bow;they have fitted their arrow to the stringto shoot in the dark at the upright in heart;

3

根基若被摧毀,義人還能做甚麼呢?

if the foundations are destroyed,what can the righteous do?”

4

耶和華在他的聖殿裡,耶和華的寶座在天上;他的眼睛觀看,他的目光察驗世人。

The LORD is in his holy temple;the LORD's throne is in heaven;his eyes see, his eyelids test the children of man.

5

耶和華察驗義人;而惡人和喜愛凶暴的人,他的心恨惡。

The LORD tests the righteous,but his soul hates the wicked and the one who loves violence.

6

他要向惡人降下羅網,並用火、硫磺和熱風作他們杯中的分。

Let him rain coals on the wicked;fire and sulfur and a scorching wind shall be the portion of their cup.

7

因為耶和華是公義的,他喜愛公義,正直的人必得見他的面。

For the LORD is righteous;he loves righteous deeds;the upright shall behold his face.

12
詩篇 12
Psalm 12

祈求耶和華保護

The Faithful Have Vanished

大衛的詩,交給詩班長,採用“八音”的曲調。

To the choirmaster: according to The Sheminith. A Psalm of David.

1

耶和華啊,求你拯救!因為沒有忠誠的人了;信實的人從世人中消失了。

Save, O LORD, for the godly one is gone;for the faithful have vanished from among the children of man.

2

人人彼此說謊,滿嘴諂媚,口是心非。

Everyone utters lies to his neighbor;with flattering lips and a double heart they speak.

3

願耶和華剪除所有諂媚的嘴唇、誇大的舌頭。

May the LORD cut off all flattering lips,the tongue that makes great boasts,

4

他們曾說:“我們要以舌頭取勝,我們的嘴唇是我們自己的,誰能作我們的主呢?”

those who say, “With our tongue we will prevail,our lips are with us; who is master over us?”

5

耶和華說:“由於貧苦人的冤屈、窮人的歎息,現在我要起來,把他安置在他所渴望的救恩裡。”

“Because the poor are plundered, because the needy groan,I will now arise,” says the LORD;“I will place him in the safety for which he longs.”

6

耶和華的話語是純淨的話語,好像銀子在地上的爐中精煉七次。

The words of the LORD are pure words,like silver refined in a furnace on the ground,purified seven times.

7

耶和華啊,求你親自守護他們!求你保護我們永遠脫離這世代!

You, O LORD, will keep them;you will guard us from this generation forever.

8

當邪惡在世人中被高舉,惡人就四處橫行。

On every side the wicked prowl,as vileness is exalted among the children of man.

13

耶和華啊,你忘記我要到幾時呢?要到永遠嗎?你掩面不理我要到幾時呢?

How long, O LORD? Will you forget me forever?How long will you hide your face from me?

2

我的思緒翻騰,內心整日悲傷,要到幾時呢?我的仇敵升高壓制我,要到幾時呢?

How long must I take counsel in my souland have sorrow in my heart all the day?How long shall my enemy be exalted over me?

3

耶和華我的 神啊,求你看顧、應允我!求你使我的眼睛恢復光彩,免得我沉睡至死;

Consider and answer me, O LORD my God;light up my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death,

4

免得我的仇敵說“我勝了他”;免得我的敵人因我倒下而幸災樂禍。

lest my enemy say, “I have prevailed over him,”lest my foes rejoice because I am shaken.

5

而我,我倚靠你的忠誠之愛,我的心因你的拯救而快樂。

But I have trusted in your steadfast love;my heart shall rejoice in your salvation.

6

我要向耶和華歌唱,因為他以厚恩待我。

I will sing to the LORD,because he has dealt bountifully with me.

14
詩篇 14
Psalm 14

愚妄的人心中沒有 神

The Fool Says, There Is No God

大衛的詩,交給詩班長。

To the choirmaster. Of David.

1

愚妄的人心裡說:“沒有 神!”他們敗壞,行事可憎,沒有人行善。

The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.”They are corrupt, they do abominable deeds,there is none who does good.

2

耶和華從天上察看世人,要看有沒有明智的人,有沒有尋求 神的人。

The LORD looks down from heaven on the children of man,to see if there are any who understand,who seek after God.

3

人人都離棄了 神,一同變得敗壞;沒有人行善,連一個也沒有。

They have all turned aside; together they have become corrupt;there is none who does good,not even one.

4

那些作惡的人全都清楚明白!他們吞吃我的子民好像吃餅,他們不呼求耶和華。

Have they no knowledge, all the evildoerswho eat up my people as they eat breadand do not call upon the LORD?

5

他們在那裡非常驚恐,因為 神就在義人的群體中。

There they are in great terror,for God is with the generation of the righteous.

6

你們想要使困苦人的計劃蒙羞,耶和華卻是他的避難所。

You would shame the plans of the poor,but the LORD is his refuge.

7

但願以色列的拯救從錫安來臨!當耶和華復興他的子民,雅各就要快樂,以色列就要歡喜。

Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion!When the LORD restores the fortunes of his people,let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.

15
詩篇 15
Psalm 15

誰能住在耶和華的聖山?

Who Shall Dwell on Your Holy Hill?

大衛的詩。

A Psalm of David.

1

耶和華啊,誰能寄居你的帳幕?誰能住在你的聖山?

O LORD, who shall sojourn in your tent?Who shall dwell on your holy hill?

2

就是行為正直,做事公正,心裡說誠實話的人。

He who walks blamelessly and does what is rightand speaks truth in his heart;

3

他不以舌頭誹謗人,不作惡傷害朋友,也不辱罵親人。

who does not slander with his tongueand does no evil to his neighbor,nor takes up a reproach against his friend;

4

卑鄙的小人,他眼中藐視;敬畏耶和華的人,他卻敬重。他發了誓,即使自己吃虧,也不更改。

in whose eyes a vile person is despised,but who honors those who fear the LORD;who swears to his own hurt and does not change;

5

他不放債取利,也不收受賄賂以害無辜。這樣行事的人,將永不動搖。

who does not put out his money at interestand does not take a bribe against the innocent.He who does these things shall never be moved.

16
詩篇 16
Psalm 16

在耶和華面前有滿足的喜樂

You Will Not Abandon My Soul

大衛的金詩。

A Miktam of David.

1

神啊,求你守護我!因為我投靠你。

Preserve me, O God, for in you I take refuge.

2

我曾對耶和華說:“你是我的主,我的福分不在你以外。”

I say to the LORD, “You are my Lord;I have no good apart from you.”

3

論到地上的聖民,他們是尊榮的人,我最喜悅他們。

As for the saints in the land, they are the excellent ones,in whom is all my delight.

4

追隨別神的人,他們的痛苦將增加;他們所澆奠的血我不獻上,我的嘴唇也不提別神的名。

The sorrows of those who run after another god shall multiply;their drink offerings of blood I will not pour outor take their names on my lips.

5

耶和華是我的產業,是我杯中的福分;你護持我分得的產業。

The LORD is my chosen portion and my cup;you hold my lot.

6

丈量土地的繩尺,坐落在佳美之處;我的產業實在美好。

The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance.

7

我要稱頌那指引我的耶和華,我的心腸在夜間也勸誡我。

I bless the LORD who gives me counsel;in the night also my heart instructs me.

8

我常把耶和華放在我眼前,因為他在我的右邊,我就不會動搖。

I have set the LORD always before me;because he is at my right hand, I shall not be shaken.

9

因此,我的心快樂,我的靈歡欣,我的肉身也要安然居住。

Therefore my heart is glad, and my whole being rejoices;my flesh also dwells secure.

10

因為你不會把我的性命遺棄在陰間,也不會容許對你忠誠的人見墓穴。

For you will not abandon my soul to Sheol,or let your holy one see corruption.

11

你將讓我認識生命的道路。在你面前有滿足的喜樂,在你右手中有永遠的福樂。

You make known to me the path of life;in your presence there is fullness of joy;at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.

17
詩篇 17
Psalm 17

大衛求耶和華垂聽公義的申訴

In the Shadow of Your Wings

大衛的祈禱。

A Prayer of David.

1

耶和華啊,求你垂聽公義的申訴,留心聽我的呼求!張開耳朵聽我這不出於詭詐嘴唇的祈禱!

Hear a just cause, O LORD; attend to my cry!Give ear to my prayer from lips free of deceit!

2

願我的判決從你面前發出,願你的眼睛察看誠信正直。

From your presence let my vindication come!Let your eyes behold the right!

3

你試驗我的心,你在夜間鑒察。你熬煉我,找不到我有甚麼惡念;我的口沒有過犯。

You have tried my heart, you have visited me by night,you have tested me, and you will find nothing;I have purposed that my mouth will not transgress.

4

至於世人的行為,我藉著你嘴唇的言語,謹守自己,不走殘暴之徒的道路。

With regard to the works of man, by the word of your lipsI have avoided the ways of the violent.

5

我的腳步踏穩你的路徑,我的雙腳沒有失閃。

My steps have held fast to your paths;my feet have not slipped.

6

我向你呼求,因為, 神啊,你會應允我;求你向我側耳,垂聽我的申訴!

I call upon you, for you will answer me, O God;incline your ear to me; hear my words.

7

求你奇妙地顯出你的忠誠之愛,用右手拯救投靠你的人們,好脫離那些攻擊他們的人。

Wondrously show your steadfast love,O Savior of those who seek refugefrom their adversaries at your right hand.

8

求你守護我,如同眼中的瞳人,把我藏在你翅膀的蔭下,

Keep me as the apple of your eye;hide me in the shadow of your wings,

9

使我脫離那些要毀滅我的惡人,那些圍繞我,攻擊我的仇敵。

from the wicked who do me violence,my deadly enemies who surround me.

10

他們的心麻木無情,他們的口說話狂妄。

They close their hearts to pity;with their mouths they speak arrogantly.

11

他們尾隨我們的腳步,現在圍困我們,他們瞪大了眼睛,要把我們推跌在地上。

They have now surrounded our steps;they set their eyes to cast us to the ground.

12

像獅子急於撕碎獵物,像少壯獅子蹲在暗處。

He is like a lion eager to tear,as a young lion lurking in ambush.

13

耶和華啊,求你起來迎敵,使他屈服!用你的刀救護我,脫離惡人!

Arise, O LORD! Confront him, subdue him!Deliver my soul from the wicked by your sword,

14

耶和華啊,求你親手救我脫離世人,脫離那只在今生享福的人!你用你的珍藏填飽他們的肚腹,他們因兒女眾多就滿足,剩餘的留給他們的子孫。

from men by your hand, O LORD,from men of the world whose portion is in this life.You fill their womb with treasure;they are satisfied with children,and they leave their abundance to their infants.

15

而我,我將在義中得見你的面;當我醒來得見你的形象,就心滿意足。

As for me, I shall behold your face in righteousness;when I awake, I shall be satisfied with your likeness.

18
詩篇 18
Psalm 18

稱頌耶和華以大能拯救君王

The LORD Is My Rock and My Fortress

耶和華的僕人大衛的詩,交給詩班長。耶和華拯救他脫離一切仇敵的手和掃羅的手,他因此向耶和華吟誦這首歌的歌詞。他說:

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David, the servant of the LORD, who addressed the words of this song to the LORD on the day when the LORD rescued him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul. He said:

1

耶和華我的力量啊,我愛你!

I love you, O LORD, my strength.

2

耶和華是我的巖山、我的藏身處、我的救主、我的 神、我投靠的石山、我的盾牌和大能的救主、我避難的高處。

The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer,my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge,my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.

3

我呼求該受讚美的耶和華,就蒙拯救脫離仇敵。

I call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised,and I am saved from my enemies.

4

死亡的繩索包圍我,毀滅的急流淹沒我,

The cords of death encompassed me;the torrents of destruction assailed me;

5

陰間的繩索圍繞我,死亡的羅網迎面撒來。

the cords of Sheol entangled me;the snares of death confronted me.

6

我在急難中呼求耶和華,向我的 神呼救;他從殿裡聽了我的聲音,我在他面前的呼求傳入他的耳中。

In my distress I called upon the LORD;to my God I cried for help.From his temple he heard my voice,and my cry to him reached his ears.

7

大地搖晃震撼,山的根基震動;它們劇烈搖晃,因耶和華發怒。

Then the earth reeled and rocked;the foundations also of the mountains trembledand quaked, because he was angry.

8

他的鼻孔冒起濃煙,他口中噴出吞噬的火,發出燃燒的炭。

Smoke went up from his nostrils,and devouring fire from his mouth;glowing coals flamed forth from him.

9

他拉開天空降臨,黑雲在他的腳下。

He bowed the heavens and came down;thick darkness was under his feet.

10

他乘坐基路伯飛行;藉著風的翅膀疾飛。

He rode on a cherub and flew;he came swiftly on the wings of the wind.

11

他以黑暗為藏身之處,為他四圍的棚子—就是水的黑暗,天空的烏雲。

He made darkness his covering, his canopy around him,thick clouds dark with water.

12

因他面前的光輝,冰雹和火炭穿透烏雲。

Out of the brightness before himhailstones and coals of fire broke through his clouds.

13

耶和華在天上打雷,至高者發出聲音,就有冰雹和火炭。

The LORD also thundered in the heavens,and the Most High uttered his voice,hailstones and coals of fire.

14

他射出箭來驅散仇敵,發出閃電擊潰他們。

And he sent out his arrows and scattered them;he flashed forth lightnings and routed them.

15

耶和華啊,因你的斥責一發,你鼻孔的氣一出;海床就清楚可見,大地的根基也顯露。

Then the channels of the sea were seen,and the foundations of the world were laid bareat your rebuke, O LORD,at the blast of the breath of your nostrils.

16

他從高處伸手抓住我,把我從大水中拉上來。

He sent from on high, he took me;he drew me out of many waters.

17

他救我脫離強敵,脫離那些恨我的人—他們太強,我對付不了。

He rescued me from my strong enemyand from those who hated me,for they were too mighty for me.

18

在我遭難的日子,他們來攻擊我;但耶和華是我的倚靠。

They confronted me in the day of my calamity,but the LORD was my support.

19

他領我出去,到寬闊之地;他搭救我,因為他喜愛我。

He brought me out into a broad place;he rescued me, because he delighted in me.

20

耶和華按我的公義待我,按我雙手的潔淨回報我。

The LORD dealt with me according to my righteousness;according to the cleanness of my hands he rewarded me.

21

因為我遵守耶和華的道路,沒有作惡離開我的 神。

For I have kept the ways of the LORD,and have not wickedly departed from my God.

22

我珍視他的一切律例;他的規定,我沒有離棄。

For all his rules were before me,and his statutes I did not put away from me.

23

我對他完全忠誠,我謹守自己遠離罪惡。

I was blameless before him,and I kept myself from my guilt.

24

所以耶和華按我的公義,按我在他眼前的潔淨回報我。

So the LORD has rewarded me according to my righteousness,according to the cleanness of my hands in his sight.

25

對忠誠的人,你顯出你的忠誠;對正直的人,你顯出你的正直。

With the merciful you show yourself merciful;with the blameless man you show yourself blameless;

26

對清潔的人,你顯出你的清潔;對狡詐的人,你顯出你的機巧。

with the purified you show yourself pure;and with the crooked you make yourself seem tortuous.

27

因為,困苦的人民,你要親自拯救;高傲的眼目,你會使他們降卑。

For you save a humble people,but the haughty eyes you bring down.

28

因為,耶和華啊,你點亮我的燈!我的 神照亮我的黑暗。

For it is you who light my lamp;the LORD my God lightens my darkness.

29

靠著你,我攻破敵軍;靠著我的 神,我越過牆垣。

For by you I can run against a troop,and by my God I can leap over a wall.

30

這位 神,他的道路完美,耶和華的話語煉淨;所有投靠他的人,他都作他們的盾牌。

This God—his way is perfect;the word of the LORD proves true;he is a shield for all those who take refuge in him.

31

確實,除了耶和華,誰是 神呢?除了我們的 神,誰是石山呢?

For who is God, but the LORD?And who is a rock, except our God?—

32

這位 神,他以能力束我的腰,又使我的道路平直。

the God who equipped me with strengthand made my way blameless.

33

他使我的腳敏捷如鹿,讓我穩站在高處。

He made my feet like the feet of a deerand set me secure on the heights.

34

他訓練我的手怎樣作戰,使我的手臂可以拉開銅弓。

He trains my hands for war,so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze.

35

你賜我救恩作盾牌,用你的右手扶持我。你的謙和使我昌大。

You have given me the shield of your salvation,and your right hand supported me,and your gentleness made me great.

36

你拓寬我腳下的路,我的雙腳不會滑倒。

You gave a wide place for my steps under me,and my feet did not slip.

37

我追趕仇敵,並且追上;不殲滅他們,絕不歸回。

I pursued my enemies and overtook them,and did not turn back till they were consumed.

38

我要重創他們,使他們不能站起來;他們都倒在我的腳下。

I thrust them through, so that they were not able to rise;they fell under my feet.

39

你賜給我力量去作戰,使那些起來攻擊我的人,都屈服在我之下。

For you equipped me with strength for the battle;you made those who rise against me sink under me.

40

你使我的仇敵轉身逃跑;我殲滅恨我的人。

You made my enemies turn their backs to me,and those who hated me I destroyed.

41

他們呼救,卻無人拯救;向耶和華呼求,他卻不回答他們。

They cried for help, but there was none to save;they cried to the LORD, but he did not answer them.

42

我搗碎他們,像風吹的灰塵;我倒出他們,如街上的爛泥。

I beat them fine as dust before the wind;I cast them out like the mire of the streets.

43

你救我脫離人民的紛爭,立我作列國的元首,我素不認識的人民要服侍我。

You delivered me from strife with the people;you made me the head of the nations;people whom I had not known served me.

44

他們聽見我的事蹟就服從我,外族人都曲意歸順我;

As soon as they heard of me they obeyed me;foreigners came cringing to me.

45

外族人勇氣全消,戰戰兢兢走出他們的藏身處。

Foreigners lost heartand came trembling out of their fortresses.

46

耶和華永遠活著,我的石山配受稱頌!拯救我的 神應被尊崇!

The LORD lives, and blessed be my rock,and exalted be the God of my salvation—

47

這位 神,他為我報仇,使眾民臣服在我的腳下;

the God who gave me vengeanceand subdued peoples under me,

48

他救我脫離我的仇敵。你還把我高舉起來,脫離那些攻擊我的人,你救我脫離凶暴的人。

who delivered me from my enemies;yes, you exalted me above those who rose against me;you rescued me from the man of violence.

49

因此,耶和華啊,我要在列國中讚美你,歌頌你的名!

For this I will praise you, O LORD, among the nations,and sing to your name.

50

他把極大的救恩賜給他所立的王,以忠誠之愛對待他的受膏者,就是大衛和他的後裔,直到永遠!

Great salvation he brings to his king,and shows steadfast love to his anointed,to David and his offspring forever.

19
詩篇 19
Psalm 19

稱頌  神的創造和律法

The Law of the LORD Is Perfect

大衛的詩,交給詩班長。

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.

1

天空述說 神的榮耀,穹蒼傳揚他手的作為。

The heavens declare the glory of God,and the sky above proclaims his handiwork.

2

天天湧出言語,夜夜傳出知識。

Day to day pours out speech,and night to night reveals knowledge.

3

無言無語,無聲無息。

There is no speech, nor are there words,whose voice is not heard.

4

他們的聲音傳遍全地,他們的言語傳到地極。神在天上為太陽安設帳幕,

Their voice goes out through all the earth,and their words to the end of the world.In them he has set a tent for the sun,

5

太陽如同新郎出洞房,又像勇士歡欣地跑路。

which comes out like a bridegroom leaving his chamber,and, like a strong man, runs its course with joy.

6

他從天的這邊出來,繞行到天的那邊,沒有甚麼能躲過它的炎熱。

Its rising is from the end of the heavens,and its circuit to the end of them,and there is nothing hidden from its heat.

7

耶和華的律法完美,使人生命復甦;耶和華的法度確立,使幼稚者有智慧。

The law of the LORD is perfect,reviving the soul;the testimony of the LORD is sure,making wise the simple;

8

耶和華的訓言正直,使人心裡歡喜;耶和華的命令清潔,使人眼睛明亮。

the precepts of the LORD are right,rejoicing the heart;the commandment of the LORD is pure,enlightening the eyes;

9

耶和華的話語潔淨,立定直到永遠;耶和華的判語信實,全都公義;

the fear of the LORD is clean,enduring forever;the rules of the LORD are true,and righteous altogether.

10

比金子可羨慕,超過許多純金;比蜜更加甘甜,超過蜂房的蜜。

More to be desired are they than gold,even much fine gold;sweeter also than honeyand drippings of the honeycomb.

11

你的僕人還可以從中受到警戒,遵守這些就有豐厚的賞賜。

Moreover, by them is your servant warned;in keeping them there is great reward.

12

誰能察覺自己的過錯呢?願你赦免我隱而未現的過犯;

Who can discern his errors?Declare me innocent from hidden faults.

13

求你攔阻你的僕人任意妄為,不讓這罪轄制我,我就純良正直,免犯大錯。

Keep back your servant also from presumptuous sins;let them not have dominion over me!Then I shall be blameless,and innocent of great transgression.

14

耶和華我的石山,我的救贖主啊,願我口中的言語,心裡的意念,都在你面前蒙悅納!

Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heartbe acceptable in your sight,O LORD, my rock and my redeemer.

20
詩篇 20
Psalm 20

祈求耶和華拯救君王

Trust in the Name of the LORD Our God

大衛的詩,交給詩班長。

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.

1

願耶和華在危難的日子應允你,願雅各之 神的名保護你。

May the LORD answer you in the day of trouble!May the name of the God of Jacob protect you!

2

願他從聖所幫助你,從錫安扶持你。

May he send you help from the sanctuaryand give you support from Zion!

3

願他記得你所有的禮物,悅納你的燔祭。(細拉)

May he remember all your offeringsand regard with favor your burnt sacrifices! Selah

4

願他成全你的心願,實現你所有的計劃。

May he grant you your heart's desireand fulfill all your plans!

5

我們要因你的拯救而歡呼,要因我們 神的名揚起大旗。願耶和華實現你所求的一切。

May we shout for joy over your salvation,and in the name of our God set up our banners!May the LORD fulfill all your petitions!

6

現在我確知,耶和華拯救他的受膏者;他從他的聖天上應允他,用右手的能力拯救他。

Now I know that the LORD saves his anointed;he will answer him from his holy heavenwith the saving might of his right hand.

7

有人信靠戰車,有人信靠戰馬,我們卻信靠耶和華我們 神的名。

Some trust in chariots and some in horses,but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.

8

他們都屈身仆倒,我們卻挺身屹立。

They collapse and fall,but we rise and stand upright.

9

耶和華啊,求你拯救王!我們呼求的時候,求你應允我們!

O LORD, save the king!May he answer us when we call.

21
詩篇 21
Psalm 21

稱頌耶和華賜王尊榮得勝

The King Rejoices in the LORD's Strength

大衛的詩,交給詩班長。

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.

1

耶和華啊,王要因你的能力而歡欣;因你的救恩,他的快樂何等大啊!

O LORD, in your strength the king rejoices,and in your salvation how greatly he exults!

2

他心裡所願的,你已賜給他;他嘴唇所求的,你沒有拒絕。(細拉)

You have given him his heart's desireand have not withheld the request of his lips. Selah

3

的確,你以美福迎接他,你把純金的冠冕戴在他頭上。

For you meet him with rich blessings;you set a crown of fine gold upon his head.

4

他向你求壽,你就賜給他;就是日子長久,直到永遠。

He asked life of you; you gave it to him,length of days forever and ever.

5

因你的救恩,他大有榮耀;尊榮和威嚴你都加給他。

His glory is great through your salvation;splendor and majesty you bestow on him.

6

的確,你賜給他大福,直到永遠;你使他因你同在而喜樂歡欣。

For you make him most blessed forever;you make him glad with the joy of your presence.

7

因為王倚靠耶和華,因至高者的忠誠之愛,他不會動搖。

For the king trusts in the LORD,and through the steadfast love of the Most High he shall not be moved.

8

你的手將要搜出你所有的仇敵;你的右手要搜出那些恨你的人。

Your hand will find out all your enemies;your right hand will find out those who hate you.

9

耶和華啊,當你出現時,你要使他們像在火爐中!耶和華要在怒中吞滅他們,火要燒毀他們。

You will make them as a blazing ovenwhen you appear.The LORD will swallow them up in his wrath,and fire will consume them.

10

你將從地上滅絕他們的子孫;從世人當中滅絕他們的後裔。

You will destroy their descendants from the earth,and their offspring from among the children of man.

11

因為他們圖謀惡事攻擊你;他們謀算詭計,卻無所成。

Though they plan evil against you,though they devise mischief, they will not succeed.

12

因為當你彎弓瞄準他們的臉,就使他們轉身逃跑。

For you will put them to flight;you will aim at their faces with your bows.

13

耶和華啊,願你因你的能力被尊崇;好叫我們歌唱頌讚你的大能!

Be exalted, O LORD, in your strength!We will sing and praise your power.

22
詩篇 22
Psalm 22

因被 神離棄的哀歌

Why Have You Forsaken Me?

大衛的詩,交給詩班長,採用“朝鹿”的曲調。

To the choirmaster: according to The Doe of the Dawn. A Psalm of David.

1

我的 神!我的 神!你為甚麼離棄我?為甚麼遠離不救我,不聽我的哀號?

My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?Why are you so far from saving me, from the words of my groaning?

2

我的 神啊,我白天呼求,你不應允;夜晚哀求,也不得安寧。

O my God, I cry by day, but you do not answer,and by night, but I find no rest.

3

但你是聖潔的,用以色列的讚美為寶座。

Yet you are holy,enthroned on the praises of Israel.

4

我們的列祖倚靠你;他們倚靠你,你就拯救他們。

In you our fathers trusted;they trusted, and you delivered them.

5

他們哀求你,就得拯救;他們倚靠你,就不致蒙羞。

To you they cried and were rescued;in you they trusted and were not put to shame.

6

但我是一條蟲,不是人!我被人羞辱,遭人民藐視。

But I am a worm and not a man,scorned by mankind and despised by the people.

7

所有看見我的人都嘲笑我;他們撇嘴搖頭,說:

All who see me mock me;they make mouths at me; they wag their heads;

8

“你把自己交託耶和華吧!耶和華會救他吧!耶和華會搭救他,因為耶和華喜悅他。”

“He trusts in the LORD; let him deliver him;let him rescue him, for he delights in him!”

9

但你親自接我出母腹;我還在母親懷裡,你就使我有倚靠的心。

Yet you are he who took me from the womb;you made me trust you at my mother's breasts.

10

我自出母胎,就被交給你;我自出母腹,你就是我的 神。

On you was I cast from my birth,and from my mother's womb you have been my God.

11

求你不要遠離我,因為急難臨近了,卻沒有人幫助我。

Be not far from me,for trouble is near,and there is none to help.

12

許多公牛圍著我,巴珊強壯的公牛困住我。

Many bulls encompass me;strong bulls of Bashan surround me;

13

牠們向我張開大口,像抓撕吼叫的獅子。

they open wide their mouths at me,like a ravening and roaring lion.

14

我像水被倒出去,全身骨頭都脫節;我的心像蠟,在我裡面融化。

I am poured out like water,and all my bones are out of joint;my heart is like wax;it is melted within my breast;

15

我的精力枯竭像瓦片;我的舌頭緊黏著上顎,你把我放在死亡的塵土中。

my strength is dried up like a potsherd,and my tongue sticks to my jaws;you lay me in the dust of death.

16

狗群圍著我,惡黨包圍我,他們刺透我的手、我的腳。

For dogs encompass me;a company of evildoers encircles me;they have pierced my hands and feet —

17

我能數算我全身的骨頭;他們卻瞪著眼看我。

I can count all my bones—they stare and gloat over me;

18

他們彼此分了我的那些衣袍,又為我的一件衣服抽籤。

they divide my garments among them,and for my clothing they cast lots.

19

但是你,耶和華啊,求你不要遠離我!我的力量啊,求你快來幫助我!

But you, O LORD, do not be far off!O you my help, come quickly to my aid!

20

求你救我的性命脫離刀劍,救我的生命脫離狗爪!

Deliver my soul from the sword,my precious life from the power of the dog!

21

求你拯救我脫離獅子的口!你已應允我脫離野牛的角。

Save me from the mouth of the lion!You have rescued me from the horns of the wild oxen!

22

我要向我的弟兄們宣揚你的名;我要在會眾中讚美你。

I will tell of your name to my brothers;in the midst of the congregation I will praise you:

23

敬畏耶和華的人啊,你們要讚美他!雅各所有的後裔啊,你們要尊敬他!以色列所有的後裔啊,你們要敬畏他!

You who fear the LORD, praise him!All you offspring of Jacob, glorify him,and stand in awe of him, all you offspring of Israel!

24

因為,他沒有輕看、厭惡困苦人的困苦;他沒有掩面不顧,反倒垂聽他的呼救。

For he has not despised or abhorredthe affliction of the afflicted,and he has not hidden his face from him,but has heard, when he cried to him.

25

我在大會中讚美你的話,是從你而來;我在敬畏耶和華的人面前,要還我的願。

From you comes my praise in the great congregation;my vows I will perform before those who fear him.

26

困苦的人會吃得飽足;尋求耶和華的人要讚美他,說:“願你們的心永遠活著。”

The afflicted shall eat and be satisfied;those who seek him shall praise the LORD!May your hearts live forever!

27

大地所有角落的人要敬仰耶和華,列國的萬族都要在他面前敬拜;

All the ends of the earth shall rememberand turn to the LORD,and all the families of the nationsshall worship before you.

28

因耶和華是王,他統管列國。

For kingship belongs to the LORD,and he rules over the nations.

29

地上所有富足的人,都要吃喝而敬拜;所有快要下到塵土、生命無以為繼的人,都要在他面前下拜。

All the prosperous of the earth eat and worship;before him shall bow all who go down to the dust,even the one who could not keep himself alive.

30

他們的後裔要服侍他,主的事將會向後來的世代傳講。

Posterity shall serve him;it shall be told of the Lord to the coming generation;

31

他們要來宣揚他的公義,給後來出生的民說:“這是他所成就的事。”

they shall come and proclaim his righteousness to a people yet unborn,that he has done it.

23
詩篇 23
Psalm 23

耶和華是我的牧人

The LORD Is My Shepherd

大衛的詩。

A Psalm of David.

1

耶和華是我的牧人,我一無所缺。

The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.

2

他使我躺臥在青草地上;領我到安寧的水邊。

He makes me lie down in green pastures.He leads me beside still waters.

3

他使我的生命復甦;為自己的名,引導我走義路。

He restores my soul.He leads me in paths of righteousnessfor his name's sake.

4

我雖然行過死蔭的幽谷,也不怕遭受傷害,因為你與我同在;你的杖、你的竿都安慰我。

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,I will fear no evil,for you are with me;your rod and your staff,they comfort me.

5

你在我敵人面前,為我擺設宴席;你用油膏抹我的頭,使我的杯滿溢。

You prepare a table before mein the presence of my enemies;you anoint my head with oil;my cup overflows.

6

我一生的日子,必有福氣和忠誠之愛緊隨著我;我也要住在耶和華的殿中,直到永遠。

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow meall the days of my life,and I shall dwell in the house of the LORDforever.

24
詩篇 24
Psalm 24

迎接榮耀大君王

The King of Glory

大衛的詩。

A Psalm of David.

1

地和地上所充滿的,世界和世上的居民,都屬耶和華。

The earth is the LORD's and the fullness thereof,the world and those who dwell therein,

2

因為他把地奠基在海上,安置在江河上。

for he has founded it upon the seasand established it upon the rivers.

3

誰能登上耶和華的山?誰能站在他的聖所?

Who shall ascend the hill of the LORD?And who shall stand in his holy place?

4

就是手潔心清,不利用耶和華的名弄虛作假,不發假誓的人。

He who has clean hands and a pure heart,who does not lift up his soul to what is falseand does not swear deceitfully.

5

他將領受從耶和華而來的福分;他的義來自拯救他的 神。

He will receive blessing from the LORDand righteousness from the God of his salvation.

6

這是尋求耶和華的群體;就是尋求你面的雅各。(細拉)

Such is the generation of those who seek him,who seek the face of the God of Jacob. Selah

7

眾城門啊,抬起頭來!永久的門戶啊,敞開吧,好讓榮耀的王進來!

Lift up your heads, O gates!And be lifted up, O ancient doors,that the King of glory may come in.

8

這位榮耀的王是誰?就是強而有力的耶和華;在戰鬥中有能力的耶和華。

Who is this King of glory?The LORD, strong and mighty,the LORD, mighty in battle!

9

眾城門啊,抬起頭來!永久的門戶啊,敞開吧,好讓榮耀的王進來!

Lift up your heads, O gates!And lift them up, O ancient doors,that the King of glory may come in.

10

這位榮耀的王究竟是誰?就是萬軍之耶和華,他是榮耀的王!(細拉)

Who is this King of glory?The LORD of hosts,he is the King of glory! Selah

詩篇 25
Psalm 25

等候耶和華的人不會蒙羞

Teach Me Your Paths

大衛的詩。

Of David.

1

耶和華啊,我的心仰望你!

To you, O LORD, I lift up my soul.

2

我的 神啊,我向來倚靠你,求你不要讓我蒙羞!求你不要讓我的仇敵對我洋洋得意。

O my God, in you I trust;let me not be put to shame;let not my enemies exult over me.

3

所有等候你的人都不會蒙羞;無端背信的人卻要蒙羞。

Indeed, none who wait for you shall be put to shame;they shall be ashamed who are wantonly treacherous.

4

耶和華啊,求你把你的道路指示我,求你把你的路徑教導我!

Make me to know your ways, O LORD;teach me your paths.

5

求你用你的真理引領我,教導我!因為你是拯救我的 神,我整天等候你。

Lead me in your truth and teach me,for you are the God of my salvation;for you I wait all the day long.

6

耶和華啊,求你想到你的憐憫和忠誠之愛!因為這從亙古以來就存在。

Remember your mercy, O LORD, and your steadfast love,for they have been from of old.

7

我年輕時所犯的各種罪和過犯,求你不要追究!耶和華啊,求你因你的恩惠,按你的忠誠之愛顧念我!

Remember not the sins of my youth or my transgressions;according to your steadfast love remember me,for the sake of your goodness, O LORD!

8

耶和華既良善又正直,他要指示罪人走正路。

Good and upright is the LORD;therefore he instructs sinners in the way.

9

他要按公正引導謙卑的人;將他的道路教導謙卑的人。

He leads the humble in what is right,and teaches the humble his way.

10

持守耶和華的約及法度的人,耶和華都以忠誠之愛和信實待他。

All the paths of the LORD are steadfast love and faithfulness,for those who keep his covenant and his testimonies.

11

耶和華啊,我罪責深重,求你因你名的緣故,赦免我的罪責!

For your name's sake, O LORD,pardon my guilt, for it is great.

12

誰敬畏耶和華,耶和華就必指教他當選擇的道路。

Who is the man who fears the LORD?Him will he instruct in the way that he should choose.

13

他要在福中安然住宿;他的後裔將承受土地。

His soul shall abide in well-being,and his offspring shall inherit the land.

14

耶和華把心意向敬畏他的人顯示;使他們認識他的約。

The friendship of the LORD is for those who fear him,and he makes known to them his covenant.

15

我的眼目時常仰望耶和華;因他必使我的腳脫離羅網。

My eyes are ever toward the LORD,for he will pluck my feet out of the net.

16

求你轉向我,恩待我,因為我孤獨又困苦。

Turn to me and be gracious to me,for I am lonely and afflicted.

17

我心中的憂患增多;求你救我脫離我的痛苦。

The troubles of my heart are enlarged;bring me out of my distresses.

18

求你看看我的困苦與艱難;除去我所有的罪。

Consider my affliction and my trouble,and forgive all my sins.

19

求你看看我的仇敵何其多,他們心懷凶暴痛恨我。

Consider how many are my foes,and with what violent hatred they hate me.

20

求你守護我的性命,搭救我;不要讓我蒙羞,因為我投靠你。

Oh, guard my soul, and deliver me!Let me not be put to shame, for I take refuge in you.

21

願純良正直保護我,因為我等候你。

May integrity and uprightness preserve me,for I wait for you.

22

神啊,求你救贖以色列,使他脫離所有的愁苦!

Redeem Israel, O God,out of all his troubles.

26
詩篇 26
Psalm 26

行為正直,求主申冤

I Will Bless the LORD

大衛的詩。

Of David.

1

耶和華啊,求你為我申冤!因為我向來行為正直;我向來倚靠耶和華,並不動搖。

Vindicate me, O LORD,for I have walked in my integrity,and I have trusted in the LORD without wavering.

2

耶和華啊,求你察看我,考驗我!熬煉我的肺腑心腸!

Prove me, O LORD, and try me;test my heart and my mind.

3

因為,你的忠誠之愛常在我眼前;我也按你的真理而行。

For your steadfast love is before my eyes,and I walk in your faithfulness.

4

我不和虛謊的人同坐,也不與虛偽的人來往。

I do not sit with men of falsehood,nor do I consort with hypocrites.

5

我恨惡作惡之人的聚會;也不與那些惡人同坐。

I hate the assembly of evildoers,and I will not sit with the wicked.

6

耶和華啊,我要洗手表明無辜,才來繞行你的祭壇,

I wash my hands in innocenceand go around your altar, O LORD,

7

好使人聽見感謝的聲音,述說你一切奇妙的作為!

proclaiming thanksgiving aloud,and telling all your wondrous deeds.

8

耶和華啊,我喜愛你居住的殿宇,和你榮耀停駐的地方。

O LORD, I love the habitation of your houseand the place where your glory dwells.

9

求你不要把我的性命和罪人一同除掉,不要把我和嗜血之徒一起消滅!

Do not sweep my soul away with sinners,nor my life with bloodthirsty men,

10

他們的手做醜惡的事,右手充滿賄賂。

in whose hands are evil devices,and whose right hands are full of bribes.

11

而我,卻要行為正直;求你救贖我,恩待我!

But as for me, I shall walk in my integrity;redeem me, and be gracious to me.

12

我的腳站在平坦的地方;在聚會中我要頌讚耶和華。

My foot stands on level ground;in the great assembly I will bless the LORD.

27
詩篇 27
Psalm 27

患難中的信靠

The LORD Is My Light and My Salvation

大衛的詩。

Of David.

1

耶和華是我的亮光,是我的拯救,我還怕誰呢?耶和華是我性命的避難所,我還懼怕誰呢?

The LORD is my light and my salvation;whom shall I fear?The LORD is the stronghold of my life;of whom shall I be afraid?

2

當作惡的人來攻擊我,要吃我肉的時候,我這些敵人和仇敵,都絆跌倒下。

When evildoers assail meto eat up my flesh,my adversaries and foes,it is they who stumble and fall.

3

雖有軍隊紮營攻擊我,我的心也不害怕;雖有戰事興起攻擊我,我對此仍滿懷信心。

Though an army encamp against me,my heart shall not fear;though war arise against me,yet I will be confident.

4

有一件事我求過耶和華,我還要尋求,就是在我一生所有的日子裡都住在耶和華的殿中,仰望耶和華的榮美,在他的殿裡求問。

One thing have I asked of the LORD,that will I seek after:that I may dwell in the house of the LORDall the days of my life,to gaze upon the beauty of the LORDand to inquire in his temple.

5

因為在我遭難的日子,他把我藏在他的掩蔽所;他把我藏在他帳幕的隱密處,把我高舉在石山上。

For he will hide me in his shelterin the day of trouble;he will conceal me under the cover of his tent;he will lift me high upon a rock.

6

現在,我可以抬起頭來,高過我周邊的仇敵;我要在他的帳幕裡歡呼獻祭,我要向耶和華歌唱奏樂。

And now my head shall be lifted upabove my enemies all around me,and I will offer in his tentsacrifices with shouts of joy;I will sing and make melody to the LORD.

7

耶和華啊,我呼求的時候,求你垂聽我的聲音!求你恩待我,應允我!

Hear, O LORD, when I cry aloud;be gracious to me and answer me!

8

為你,我的心說:“你們當尋求我的面。”“耶和華啊,你的面,我正要尋求!”

You have said, “Seek my face.”My heart says to you,“Your face, LORD, do I seek.”

9

求你不要向我掩藏你的面,不要在怒中趕逐你的僕人,你向來是我的幫助;拯救我的 神啊,求你不要丟棄我!不要離棄我!

Hide not your face from me.Turn not your servant away in anger,O you who have been my help.Cast me not off; forsake me not,O God of my salvation!

10

即使我的父母離棄我,耶和華也會收留我。

For my father and my mother have forsaken me,but the LORD will take me in.

11

耶和華啊,求你將你的道路指示我!引導我走平坦的路途。因為我仇敵的緣故,

Teach me your way, O LORD,and lead me on a level pathbecause of my enemies.

12

求你不要把我交給我的敵人,遂其所願;因為作偽證的人起來攻擊我—個個都是凶暴的證人。

Give me not up to the will of my adversaries;for false witnesses have risen against me,and they breathe out violence.

13

我向來堅信,我將在活人之地見到耶和華所賜的福。

I believe that I shall look upon the goodness of the LORDin the land of the living!

14

你要等候耶和華!你的心要堅強勇敢!你要等候耶和華!

Wait for the LORD;be strong, and let your heart take courage;wait for the LORD!

28
詩篇 28
Psalm 28

懇求耶和華懲罰惡人

The LORD Is My Strength and My Shield

大衛的詩。

Of David.

1

耶和華啊,我呼求你!我的石山啊,不要向我沉默!免得你向我閉口,我就與那些下到墓穴的人一樣。

To you, O LORD, I call;my rock, be not deaf to me,lest, if you be silent to me,I become like those who go down to the pit.

2

當我向你呼救,向你至聖所舉手的時候,求你垂聽我懇求的聲音!

Hear the voice of my pleas for mercy,when I cry to you for help,when I lift up my handstoward your most holy sanctuary.

3

不要把我和壞人及作惡的人一起除掉;他們彼此說平安的話,心裡卻存著邪惡。

Do not drag me off with the wicked,with the workers of evil,who speak peace with their neighborswhile evil is in their hearts.

4

求你按他們的行為,按他們的惡行對待他們;求你按他們手所做的事對待他們,給他們應有的報應,

Give to them according to their workand according to the evil of their deeds;give to them according to the work of their hands;render them their due reward.

5

因為他們不在乎耶和華的作為,和他手所做的事;他將要拆毀他們,不再建立他們。

Because they do not regard the works of the LORDor the work of his hands,he will tear them down and build them up no more.

6

耶和華配受稱頌;因為他聽了我懇求的聲音。

Blessed be the LORD!For he has heard the voice of my pleas for mercy.

7

耶和華是我的力量、我的盾牌。我心裡倚靠他;因此,我就得到幫助,我的心歡樂,我要以詩歌讚美他。

The LORD is my strength and my shield;in him my heart trusts, and I am helped;my heart exults,and with my song I give thanks to him.

8

耶和華是他子民的力量和避難所,是他受膏者的拯救。

The LORD is the strength of his people;he is the saving refuge of his anointed.

9

求你拯救你的子民,賜福給你的產業,牧養他們,提攜他們,直到永遠!

Oh, save your people and bless your heritage!Be their shepherd and carry them forever.

29
詩篇 29
Psalm 29

耶和華的聲音,榮耀威嚴

Ascribe to the LORD Glory

大衛的詩。

A Psalm of David.

1

神的眾子啊,你們要把榮耀和能力歸給耶和華,歸給耶和華!

Ascribe to the LORD, O heavenly beings,ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.

2

當把耶和華之名的榮耀歸給他;當以聖潔的威嚴來敬拜他!

Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name;worship the LORD in the splendor of holiness.

3

耶和華的聲音在眾水之上;榮耀的 神打雷,耶和華打雷在大水之上。

The voice of the LORD is over the waters;the God of glory thunders,the LORD, over many waters.

4

耶和華的聲音大有能力;耶和華的聲音滿有威嚴。

The voice of the LORD is powerful;the voice of the LORD is full of majesty.

5

耶和華的聲音震破雪松;耶和華震斷黎巴嫩的雪松。

The voice of the LORD breaks the cedars;the LORD breaks the cedars of Lebanon.

6

他使黎巴嫩山跳躍像公牛;使西連山跳躍像青壯的野牛。

He makes Lebanon to skip like a calf,and Sirion like a young wild ox.

7

耶和華的聲音使火焰劈下。

The voice of the LORD flashes forth flames of fire.

8

耶和華的聲音震動荒野;耶和華震動加低斯的荒野。

The voice of the LORD shakes the wilderness;the LORD shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.

9

耶和華的聲音驚動母鹿生產,使樹林落葉光禿;所有在他殿宇中的人都說:“榮耀!”

The voice of the LORD makes the deer give birthand strips the forests bare,and in his temple all cry, “Glory!”

10

耶和華對著洪水而坐,耶和華永遠坐在寶座上為王!

The LORD sits enthroned over the flood;the LORD sits enthroned as king forever.

11

願耶和華賜力量給他的子民;願耶和華以平安賜福給他的子民。

May the LORD give strength to his people!May the LORD bless his people with peace!

30
詩篇 30
Psalm 30

耶和華的恩典是一生之久

Joy Comes with the Morning

大衛為獻殿所作的詩歌。

A Psalm of David. A song at the dedication of the temple.

1

耶和華啊,我要尊崇你,因為你救拔了我;不讓仇敵對我幸災樂禍。

I will extol you, O LORD, for you have drawn me upand have not let my foes rejoice over me.

2

耶和華我的 神啊,我向你呼救,你就醫好了我!

O LORD my God, I cried to you for help,and you have healed me.

3

耶和華啊,你曾把我的性命從陰間救上來;使我存活,不至於下到墓穴。

O LORD, you have brought up my soul from Sheol;you restored me to life from among those who go down to the pit.

4

對耶和華忠誠的人啊,你們要歌頌他,讚美他神聖的名號!

Sing praises to the LORD, O you his saints,and give thanks to his holy name.

5

因為他的怒氣轉眼即逝,他的恩典卻是一生之久。晚上雖然哭泣不斷,早晨卻要歡呼。

For his anger is but for a moment,and his favor is for a lifetime.Weeping may tarry for the night,but joy comes with the morning.

6

而我,我在平順中說:“我永遠不會動搖!”

As for me, I said in my prosperity,“I shall never be moved.”

7

耶和華啊,你賜下恩典,使我的山穩固;你掩了面,我就驚惶。

By your favor, O LORD,you made my mountain stand strong;you hid your face;I was dismayed.

8

耶和華啊,我向你呼求;我向主求恩,說:

To you, O LORD, I cry,and to the Lord I plead for mercy:

9

“我若流血喪命,下到陰間,有何益處呢?塵土豈能讚美你,宣揚你的信實呢?”

“What profit is there in my death,if I go down to the pit?Will the dust praise you?Will it tell of your faithfulness?

10

耶和華啊,求你垂聽,求你恩待我!耶和華啊,求你做我的幫助者!

Hear, O LORD, and be merciful to me!O LORD, be my helper!”

11

你已把我的哀哭,變為跳舞;使我脫去粗毛布,以喜樂束腰。

You have turned for me my mourning into dancing;you have loosed my sackclothand clothed me with gladness,

12

好讓我的靈歌頌你,並不住聲;耶和華我的 神啊,我要讚美你,直到永遠!

that my glory may sing your praise and not be silent.O LORD my God, I will give thanks to you forever!

31
詩篇 31
Psalm 31

大衛於困厄中仰望耶和華的拯救

Into Your Hand I Commit My Spirit

大衛的詩,交給詩班長。

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.

1

耶和華啊,我投靠你,求你叫我永不蒙羞!求你按你的公義解救我!

In you, O LORD, do I take refuge;let me never be put to shame;in your righteousness deliver me!

2

求你側耳聽我,快快搭救我!求你作我避難的石山,作拯救我的藏身處!

Incline your ear to me;rescue me speedily!Be a rock of refuge for me,a strong fortress to save me!

3

因為你是我的巖山,我的藏身處;求你因你名的緣故,引導我,帶領我。

For you are my rock and my fortress;and for your name's sake you lead me and guide me;

4

求你救我脫離人為我暗設的羅網;因為你是我的避難所。

you take me out of the net they have hidden for me,for you are my refuge.

5

我把我的靈交託在你手裡,耶和華,信實的 神啊,你救贖了我!

Into your hand I commit my spirit;you have redeemed me, O LORD, faithful God.

6

我恨惡那些信靠虛無神明的人;而我,我卻倚靠耶和華。

I hate those who pay regard to worthless idols,but I trust in the LORD.

7

我要因你的忠誠之愛高興歡喜,因為你看見我的困苦,知道我在患難中。

I will rejoice and be glad in your steadfast love,because you have seen my affliction;you have known the distress of my soul,

8

你沒有把我交在仇敵手裡;你使我的腳站在寬闊之處。

and you have not delivered me into the hand of the enemy;you have set my feet in a broad place.

9

耶和華啊,求你恩待我!因為我有患難;我的眼睛因憂愁而耗弱,我的身我的心也都相同。

Be gracious to me, O LORD, for I am in distress;my eye is wasted from grief;my soul and my body also.

10

因為,我的生命因悲傷而耗盡,我的歲月在歎息中消逝;我的力量因我的罪而衰弱,我的骨頭也耗弱了。

For my life is spent with sorrow,and my years with sighing;my strength fails because of my iniquity,and my bones waste away.

11

因我一切仇敵的緣故,我成為恥辱,我的鄰居尤其以我為恥!認識我的人都害怕我,在街上看見我,就急忙躲避!

Because of all my adversaries I have become a reproach,especially to my neighbors,and an object of dread to my acquaintances;those who see me in the street flee from me.

12

我如同死人,被人從心裡遺忘;我像破碎的器皿。

I have been forgotten like one who is dead;I have become like a broken vessel.

13

因我聽見許多人的毀謗,四周都是恐懼;他們聚在一起攻擊我,圖謀害我的性命。

For I hear the whispering of many—terror on every side!—as they scheme together against me,as they plot to take my life.

14

而我,耶和華啊,我信靠你;我說:“你是我的 神!”

But I trust in you, O LORD;I say, “You are my God.”

15

我的一生掌握在你手中;求你救我脫離我的仇敵,脫離那些迫害我的人。

My times are in your hand;rescue me from the hand of my enemies and from my persecutors!

16

求你用你的臉光照你的僕人;以你的忠誠之愛拯救我。

Make your face shine on your servant;save me in your steadfast love!

17

耶和華啊,求你不要讓我蒙羞,因為我呼求你;求你使惡人蒙羞,閉口不言下陰間!

O LORD, let me not be put to shame,for I call upon you;let the wicked be put to shame;let them go silently to Sheol.

18

願你使說謊的嘴啞口無言,他們驕傲自大,狂妄地出言攻擊義人。

Let the lying lips be mute,which speak insolently against the righteousin pride and contempt.

19

你為敬畏你、投靠你的人所珍藏的、在世人面前所賞賜的福祉,是多麼豐盛啊!

Oh, how abundant is your goodness,which you have stored up for those who fear youand worked for those who take refuge in you,in the sight of the children of mankind!

20

你把他們藏在你面前的隱密處,脫離人的陰謀;你把他們珍藏在你的棚子裡,脫離口舌的爭鬥。

In the cover of your presence you hide themfrom the plots of men;you store them in your shelterfrom the strife of tongues.

21

耶和華應當被稱頌,因為我在圍城中,他向我顯出他奇妙的忠誠之愛。

Blessed be the LORD,for he has wondrously shown his steadfast love to mewhen I was in a besieged city.

22

而我,我在驚恐中曾說:“我被隔絕,離開你眼前。”然而,當我向你呼救時,你仍垂聽我懇求的聲音。

I had said in my alarm,“I am cut off from your sight.”But you heard the voice of my pleas for mercywhen I cried to you for help.

23

對耶和華忠誠的人啊,你們都要愛他!耶和華保護忠信的人,嚴厲報應行事驕傲的人。

Love the LORD, all you his saints!The LORD preserves the faithfulbut abundantly repays the one who acts in pride.

24

所有仰望耶和華的人,你們的心要勇敢堅強。

Be strong, and let your heart take courage,all you who wait for the LORD!

32
詩篇 32
Psalm 32

赦罪之福

Blessed Are the Forgiven

大衛的訓誨詩。

A Maskil of David.

1

過犯得蒙赦免,罪惡得到寬恕的人,真是有福!

Blessed is the one whose transgression is forgiven,whose sin is covered.

2

耶和華不算他為有罪,他心靈也沒有詭詐,這人真是有福!

Blessed is the man against whom the LORD counts no iniquity,and in whose spirit there is no deceit.

3

當我閉口不認罪時,因終日哀號,以致骨頭衰殘。

For when I kept silent, my bones wasted awaythrough my groaning all day long.

4

因為不論晝夜,你的手重壓我身,我的精力耗盡,像逢盛暑的乾旱。(細拉)

For day and night your hand was heavy upon me;my strength was dried up as by the heat of summer. Selah

5

我的罪,我要向你承認,我的罪行,我沒有隱瞞;我說“我要向耶和華承認我的過犯”,你就赦免我的罪責。(細拉)

I acknowledged my sin to you,and I did not cover my iniquity;I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the LORD,”and you forgave the iniquity of my sin. Selah

6

因此,趁你可尋找的時候,所有忠誠的人都要向你禱告;當大水氾濫之時,必不淹到他那裡。

Therefore let everyone who is godlyoffer prayer to you at a time when you may be found;surely in the rush of great waters,they shall not reach him.

7

你是我藏身之處。你救我脫離患難,以得救的歡呼四面圍繞我。(細拉)

You are a hiding place for me;you preserve me from trouble;you surround me with shouts of deliverance. Selah

8

我要教導你,指教你走當行的路;我要勸誡你,我的眼睛要指引你。

I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;I will counsel you with my eye upon you.

9

你不可像無知的騾馬,若不用嚼子韁繩勒住,牠就不肯靠近你。

Be not like a horse or a mule, without understanding,which must be curbed with bit and bridle,or it will not stay near you.

10

惡人要受許多痛苦;但信靠耶和華的人,將有忠誠之愛四面圍繞他。

Many are the sorrows of the wicked,but steadfast love surrounds the one who trusts in the LORD.

11

義人啊,你們要因耶和華歡欣快樂!所有心裡正直的人啊,你們要歡呼!

Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, O righteous,and shout for joy, all you upright in heart!

33
詩篇 33
Psalm 33

耶和華說有就有,命立就立

The Steadfast Love of the LORD

1

義人啊,你們要靠著耶和華歡呼!正直人理當頌讚他。

Shout for joy in the LORD, O you righteous!Praise befits the upright.

2

你們應當彈琴讚美耶和華;用十弦瑟歌頌他。

Give thanks to the LORD with the lyre;make melody to him with the harp of ten strings!

3

你們應當向他唱新歌,彈得巧妙,唱得歡欣!

Sing to him a new song;play skillfully on the strings, with loud shouts.

4

因為耶和華的話語正直;他所做的全都信實可靠。

For the word of the LORD is upright,and all his work is done in faithfulness.

5

他喜愛公義和公正;大地充滿耶和華的忠誠之愛。

He loves righteousness and justice;the earth is full of the steadfast love of the LORD.

6

天空藉耶和華的話語受造;萬象因他口中的氣而造成。

By the word of the LORD the heavens were made,and by the breath of his mouth all their host.

7

他聚集海水如堤壩;收藏深洋在庫房。

He gathers the waters of the sea as a heap;he puts the deeps in storehouses.

8

願全地都敬畏耶和華;願世上的居民都懼怕他。

Let all the earth fear the LORD;let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him!

9

因為,他說“有”,就有;命“立”,就立。

For he spoke, and it came to be;he commanded, and it stood firm.

10

耶和華破壞列國的謀略;重挫萬民的籌算。

The LORD brings the counsel of the nations to nothing;he frustrates the plans of the peoples.

11

耶和華的謀略永遠立定;他心中的籌算萬代長存。

The counsel of the LORD stands forever,the plans of his heart to all generations.

12

以耶和華為 神的那國,真是有福!他揀選為自己產業的民,真是有福!

Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD,the people whom he has chosen as his heritage!

13

耶和華從天上觀看;看見世上所有的人。

The LORD looks down from heaven;he sees all the children of man;

14

他從自己的居所察看,地上所有的居民。

from where he sits enthroned he looks outon all the inhabitants of the earth,

15

是他塑造眾人的心;洞察他們的一切作為。

he who fashions the hearts of them alland observes all their deeds.

16

君王不能靠軍隊強大而得拯救,勇士不能靠力大而獲救;

The king is not saved by his great army;a warrior is not delivered by his great strength.

17

靠戰馬得拯救是妄想;靠軍隊強大也救不了人。

The war horse is a false hope for salvation,and by its great might it cannot rescue.

18

耶和華的眼目看顧敬畏他的人,和那些仰望他忠誠之愛的人;

Behold, the eye of the LORD is on those who fear him,on those who hope in his steadfast love,

19

要搭救他們的性命脫離死亡,要使他們在饑荒中得以存活。

that he may deliver their soul from deathand keep them alive in famine.

20

我們的心向來等候耶和華;他是我們的幫助,我們的盾牌。

Our soul waits for the LORD;he is our help and our shield.

21

我們的心將因他歡喜;因為我們向來倚靠他的聖名。

For our heart is glad in him,because we trust in his holy name.

22

耶和華啊,求你照著我們對你的仰望,向我們顯示你的忠誠之愛!

Let your steadfast love, O LORD, be upon us,even as we hope in you.

34
詩篇 34
Psalm 34

敬畏耶和華的人一無所缺

Taste and See That the LORD Is Good

大衛的詩,那時他在亞比米勒面前裝瘋,被趕逐出去。

Of David, when he changed his behavior before Abimelech, so that he drove him out, and he went away.

1

我要時時刻刻稱頌耶和華;讚美他的話常在我口中。

I will bless the LORD at all times;his praise shall continually be in my mouth.

2

我的心要因耶和華誇耀;願困苦人聽見就要歡喜。

My soul makes its boast in the LORD;let the humble hear and be glad.

3

你們當與我尊耶和華為大;讓我們一同尊崇他的名。

Oh, magnify the LORD with me,and let us exalt his name together!

4

我曾尋求耶和華,他就應允我,救我脫離一切恐懼。

I sought the LORD, and he answered meand delivered me from all my fears.

5

人仰望他,就有光彩;他們的臉,不會蒙羞。

Those who look to him are radiant,and their faces shall never be ashamed.

6

這困苦人呼求,耶和華就垂聽;他要救他脫離一切的患難。

This poor man cried, and the LORD heard himand saved him out of all his troubles.

7

耶和華的使者在敬畏他的人周邊紮營,搭救他們。

The angel of the LORD encampsaround those who fear him, and delivers them.

8

你們要親自體驗,就知道耶和華實在美善!投靠他的人真是有福!

Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good!Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him!

9

耶和華的聖民啊,你們當敬畏他!因為敬畏他的人,一無所缺。

Oh, fear the LORD, you his saints,for those who fear him have no lack!

10

少壯獅子還不免缺食挨餓;但尋求耶和華的人,甚麼福祉都不缺。

The young lions suffer want and hunger;but those who seek the LORD lack no good thing.

11

來啊,孩子們,你們當聽我!我要教導你們敬畏耶和華。

Come, O children, listen to me;I will teach you the fear of the LORD.

12

誰渴慕生命,愛慕享受很多美好的日子,

What man is there who desires lifeand loves many days, that he may see good?

13

就要約束舌頭不出惡言,嘴唇不說欺詐的話;

Keep your tongue from eviland your lips from speaking deceit.

14

要離惡行善,竭力追求和睦。

Turn away from evil and do good;seek peace and pursue it.

15

耶和華的眼睛看顧義人;他的耳朵垂聽他們呼求。

The eyes of the LORD are toward the righteousand his ears toward their cry.

16

耶和華的臉敵對作惡的人,要把他們的名號從地上除掉。

The face of the LORD is against those who do evil,to cut off the memory of them from the earth.

17

義人呼求,耶和華就垂聽,搭救他們脫離一切的患難。

When the righteous cry for help, the LORD hearsand delivers them out of all their troubles.

18

耶和華親近心靈破碎的人;靈裡痛悔的人,他將拯救。

The LORD is near to the brokenheartedand saves the crushed in spirit.

19

義人遭遇許多患難,但耶和華搭救他脫離這一切;

Many are the afflictions of the righteous,but the LORD delivers him out of them all.

20

耶和華守護他全身的骨頭,連一根也不會被折斷。

He keeps all his bones;not one of them is broken.

21

罪惡會害死惡人;恨惡義人的人,將被定罪。

Affliction will slay the wicked,and those who hate the righteous will be condemned.

22

耶和華救贖他僕人們的性命;所有投靠他的人都不被定罪。

The LORD redeems the life of his servants;none of those who take refuge in him will be condemned.

35
詩篇 35
Psalm 35

求耶和華對付仇敵

Great Is the LORD

大衛的詩。

Of David.

1

耶和華啊,與我相爭的人,求你與他們相爭!與我爭戰的人,求你與他們爭戰!

Contend, O LORD, with those who contend with me;fight against those who fight against me!

2

求你緊握大小盾牌,起來幫助我!

Take hold of shield and bucklerand rise for my help!

3

抽出矛與斧,迎戰追趕我的人。求你對我說:“我是你的拯救。”

Draw the spear and javelinagainst my pursuers!Say to my soul,“I am your salvation!”

4

願那些企圖殺害我的人,蒙羞受辱;願那些圖謀害我的人,退後羞愧。

Let them be put to shame and dishonorwho seek after my life!Let them be turned back and disappointedwho devise evil against me!

5

願他們像風前的糠秕,耶和華的使者驅趕他們。

Let them be like chaff before the wind,with the angel of the LORD driving them away!

6

願他們的道路又暗又滑,耶和華的使者追趕他們。

Let their way be dark and slippery,with the angel of the LORD pursuing them!

7

因為他們無故為我暗設羅網,無故挖坑為害我命。

For without cause they hid their net for me;without cause they dug a pit for my life.

8

願毀滅不知不覺間臨到他;願他暗設的羅網纏住自己,願他落在其中遭毀滅。

Let destruction come upon him when he does not know it!And let the net that he hid ensnare him;let him fall into it—to his destruction!

9

我的心將因耶和華而快樂;因他的救恩而歡欣。

Then my soul will rejoice in the LORD,exulting in his salvation.

10

我全身的骨頭都要說:“耶和華啊,有誰像你?你搭救貧苦人脫離比他強大的人,搭救貧苦窮困者脫離那搶奪他的人!”

All my bones shall say,“O LORD, who is like you,delivering the poorfrom him who is too strong for him,the poor and needy from him who robs him?”

11

凶暴的見證人起來,盤問我不知情的事。

Malicious witnesses rise up;they ask me of things that I do not know.

12

他們對我以惡報善,使我孤苦無依。

They repay me evil for good;my soul is bereft.

13

而我,當他們患病時,我就身穿粗毛布,禁食苦待自己,低頭不斷禱告。

But I, when they were sick—I wore sackcloth;I afflicted myself with fasting;I prayed with head bowed on my chest.

14

我往來奔走,像朋友像手足;我屈身哀痛,好像哀悼母親。

I went about as though I grieved for my friend or my brother;as one who laments his mother,I bowed down in mourning.

15

然而我跌倒時,他們卻歡喜聚集,聚集攻擊我;我不認識的壓迫者,不停撕裂我。

But at my stumbling they rejoiced and gathered;they gathered together against me;wretches whom I did not knowtore at me without ceasing;

16

他們像宴席上好譏誚的人,向我咬牙切齒。

like profane mockers at a feast,they gnash at me with their teeth.

17

主啊,你看著不理,要到幾時呢?求你救回我的性命,脫離他們的殘害!拯救我的生命,脫離少壯獅子!

How long, O Lord, will you look on?Rescue me from their destruction,my precious life from the lions!

18

我要在大會中感謝你;我要在眾民中讚美你。

I will thank you in the great congregation;in the mighty throng I will praise you.

19

求你不要讓那些無理地與我為敵的人,對我幸災樂禍!不要讓那些無故地恨我的人,對我惡意眨眼!

Let not those rejoice over mewho are wrongfully my foes,and let not those wink the eyewho hate me without cause.

20

因為,他們不說和平的話,卻攻擊地上的安靜人。他們圖謀詭詐的事,

For they do not speak peace,but against those who are quiet in the landthey devise words of deceit.

21

張大嘴巴攻擊我,說:“啊哈!啊哈!我們親眼看見了。”

They open wide their mouths against me;they say, “Aha, Aha!Our eyes have seen it!”

22

耶和華啊,你已經看見了。求你不要沉默!主啊,求你不要遠離我!

You have seen, O LORD; be not silent!O Lord, be not far from me!

23

主我的 神啊,求你醒來,求你興起!為我辯護,為我申冤!

Awake and rouse yourself for my vindication,for my cause, my God and my Lord!

24

耶和華我的 神啊,求你公正地判斷我!不要讓他們對我幸災樂禍!

Vindicate me, O LORD, my God,according to your righteousness,and let them not rejoice over me!

25

不要讓他們說:“啊哈,這正合我們的心意!”不要讓他們說:“我們可把他給吞了!”

Let them not say in their hearts,“Aha, our heart's desire!”Let them not say, “We have swallowed him up.”

26

願那些對我幸災樂禍的人,都一同抱愧蒙羞!願那些對我妄自尊大的人,都披上羞愧恥辱!

Let them be put to shame and disappointed altogetherwho rejoice at my calamity!Let them be clothed with shame and dishonorwho magnify themselves against me!

27

願那些喜悅我冤屈昭雪的人,歡呼快樂!願他們不住地說:“要尊耶和華為大!他喜悅他的僕人平安。”

Let those who delight in my righteousnessshout for joy and be gladand say evermore,“Great is the LORD,who delights in the welfare of his servant!”

28

我的舌頭要述說你的公義,終日讚美你。

Then my tongue shall tell of your righteousnessand of your praise all the day long.

36
詩篇 36
Psalm 36

耶和華是光與生命之源

How Precious Is Your Steadfast Love

耶和華的僕人大衛的詩,交給詩班長。

To the choirmaster. Of David, the servant of the LORD.

1

在我心中有論到惡人過犯的神諭,他目中毫無對 神的敬畏。

Transgression speaks to the wickeddeep in his heart;there is no fear of Godbefore his eyes.

2

罪惡媚惑他的眼睛,讓他以為他的罪行不會被揭發,不會被恨惡。

For he flatters himself in his own eyesthat his iniquity cannot be found out and hated.

3

他口中的言語全是罪惡和詭詐;他棄絕謹慎,不再行善。

The words of his mouth are trouble and deceit;he has ceased to act wisely and do good.

4

他在床上密謀惡事,定意行不善的道路,不棄絕惡事。

He plots trouble while on his bed;he sets himself in a way that is not good;he does not reject evil.

5

耶和華啊,你的忠誠之愛上及天空,你的信實直達雲霄;

Your steadfast love, O LORD, extends to the heavens,your faithfulness to the clouds.

6

你的公義如同高山,你的公正如同深淵;耶和華啊,人和牲畜,你都庇佑!

Your righteousness is like the mountains of God;your judgments are like the great deep;man and beast you save, O LORD.

7

神啊,你的忠誠之愛多麼寶貴;世人都投靠在你翅膀的蔭下!

How precious is your steadfast love, O God!The children of mankind take refuge in the shadow of your wings.

8

他們將飽嘗你殿裡的盛筵;你樂河的水你要讓他們喝。

They feast on the abundance of your house,and you give them drink from the river of your delights.

9

因為在你那裡有生命的泉源;在你的光中我們才可以看見光。

For with you is the fountain of life;in your light do we see light.

10

願你常顯忠誠之愛給認識你的人;常施公義給心裡正直的人。

Oh, continue your steadfast love to those who know you,and your righteousness to the upright of heart!

11

求你不要讓驕傲人的腳踐踏我!不要讓惡人的手使我流離飄蕩!

Let not the foot of arrogance come upon me,nor the hand of the wicked drive me away.

12

在那裡,作惡的人已經倒下;他們被推跌,再也起不來了。

There the evildoers lie fallen;they are thrust down, unable to rise.

37
詩篇 37
Psalm 37

不要因作惡的人而忿忿不平

He Will Not Forsake His Saints

大衛的詩。

Of David.

1

不要因作惡的人而忿忿不平;不要嫉妒那些奸惡的人。

Fret not yourself because of evildoers;be not envious of wrongdoers!

2

因為,他們像草,很快就凋萎;又像青草快要衰殘。

For they will soon fade like the grassand wither like the green herb.

3

你當倚靠耶和華,並要行善;你住在地上,要以他的信實為糧。

Trust in the LORD, and do good;dwell in the land and befriend faithfulness.

4

你要以耶和華為喜樂,他就把你心裡所求的賜給你。

Delight yourself in the LORD,and he will give you the desires of your heart.

5

當把你的道路交託耶和華,並倚靠他,他就會為你成全。

Commit your way to the LORD;trust in him, and he will act.

6

他將使你的公義如光發出;使你的公正明亮如正午。

He will bring forth your righteousness as the light,and your justice as the noonday.

7

你當在耶和華面前靜默無聲,耐心等候他;不要因那凡事順利的人而忿忿不平,對詭計得逞的人也是如此。

Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him;fret not yourself over the one who prospers in his way,over the man who carries out evil devices!

8

你當制止怒氣,棄絕怒火;不要忿忿不平,以致作惡。

Refrain from anger, and forsake wrath!Fret not yourself; it tends only to evil.

9

因為作惡的人要被剪除;但等候耶和華的人,他們將承受土地。

For the evildoers shall be cut off,but those who wait for the LORD shall inherit the land.

10

再過不久,惡人就不存在;就是到他的地方仔細找,他也不存在。

In just a little while, the wicked will be no more;though you look carefully at his place, he will not be there.

11

但謙和的人將承受土地,得享豐盛平安。

But the meek shall inherit the landand delight themselves in abundant peace.

12

惡人謀害義人,對他咬牙切齒。

The wicked plots against the righteousand gnashes his teeth at him,

13

但是主嘲笑他,因為見他的結局即將來到。

but the Lord laughs at the wicked,for he sees that his day is coming.

14

惡人已經拔出刀,張開弓,要打倒貧苦窮困的人,殺戮行為正直的人。

The wicked draw the sword and bend their bowsto bring down the poor and needy,to slay those whose way is upright;

15

他們的刀將刺入自己的心;他們的弓要被折斷。

their sword shall enter their own heart,and their bows shall be broken.

16

一個義人所擁有的雖少,卻勝過許多惡人的財富。

Better is the little that the righteous hasthan the abundance of many wicked.

17

因為惡人的手臂會被折斷;耶和華卻扶持義人。

For the arms of the wicked shall be broken,but the LORD upholds the righteous.

18

耶和華看顧正直人的年日;他們的產業將存到永遠。

The LORD knows the days of the blameless,and their heritage will remain forever;

19

他們在患難的時候不致蒙羞;在饑荒的日子仍得飽足。

they are not put to shame in evil times;in the days of famine they have abundance.

20

惡人卻要滅亡,耶和華的仇敵要像草場的榮美,他們將消逝,如煙消逝一樣。

But the wicked will perish;the enemies of the LORD are like the glory of the pastures;they vanish—like smoke they vanish away.

21

惡人有借無還;義人樂善好施。

The wicked borrows but does not pay back,but the righteous is generous and gives;

22

要知道,蒙耶和華賜福的人,將承受土地;遭他詛咒的人,將被剪除。

for those blessed by the LORD shall inherit the land,but those cursed by him shall be cut off.

23

人的腳步由耶和華立定;耶和華也喜悅他的道路。

The steps of a man are established by the LORD,when he delights in his way;

24

他雖跌倒卻不致一蹶不振,因為耶和華親手扶持他。

though he fall, he shall not be cast headlong,for the LORD upholds his hand.

25

我從前年幼,現在年老,從未見過義人被撇棄,也未見過他的後裔乞討。

I have been young, and now am old,yet I have not seen the righteous forsakenor his children begging for bread.

26

他終日恩待人、借給人;他的後裔也成為祝福。

He is ever lending generously,and his children become a blessing.

27

你當離惡行善,就可永遠安居。

Turn away from evil and do good;so shall you dwell forever.

28

因為耶和華喜愛公正,也不撇棄對他忠誠的人,他們要永蒙庇佑;但惡人的後裔將被剪除。

For the LORD loves justice;he will not forsake his saints.They are preserved forever,but the children of the wicked shall be cut off.

29

義人將承受土地,永居其上。

The righteous shall inherit the landand dwell upon it forever.

30

義人的口述說智慧;他的舌頭講論公正。

The mouth of the righteous utters wisdom,and his tongue speaks justice.

31

神的律法在他心裡;他的腳步總不滑跌。

The law of his God is in his heart;his steps do not slip.

32

惡人窺伺義人,想要殺他;

The wicked watches for the righteousand seeks to put him to death.

33

耶和華卻不把他撇棄在惡人手中;當審判的時候也不定他為有罪。

The LORD will not abandon him to his poweror let him be condemned when he is brought to trial.

34

你當等候耶和華,持守他的道路;他要高舉你,使你承受土地;惡人被剪除時,你將會看見。

Wait for the LORD and keep his way,and he will exalt you to inherit the land;you will look on when the wicked are cut off.

35

我曾見惡人橫行霸道,茂盛如本地的青蔥樹木。

I have seen a wicked, ruthless man,spreading himself like a green laurel tree.

36

有人從那裡經過,不料,他已不復存在。我尋找他,卻找不著。

But he passed away, and behold, he was no more;though I sought him, he could not be found.

37

你要細察純良的人,觀看正直的人;因為愛好和平的人,會有後代。

Mark the blameless and behold the upright,for there is a future for the man of peace.

38

犯罪的人將一同滅絕;惡人的後代要被剪除。

But transgressors shall be altogether destroyed;the future of the wicked shall be cut off.

39

但義人的拯救來自耶和華,他在患難時做他們的避難所。

The salvation of the righteous is from the LORD;he is their stronghold in the time of trouble.

40

耶和華幫助他們,搭救他們。他搭救他們脫離惡人,拯救他們,因為他們投靠他。

The LORD helps them and delivers them;he delivers them from the wicked and saves them,because they take refuge in him.

38
詩篇 38
Psalm 38

認罪禱告,求拯救的主幫助

Do Not Forsake Me, O LORD

大衛的紀念詩。

A Psalm of David, for the memorial offering.

1

耶和華啊,求你不要在憤怒中責備我!也不要在怒火中懲罰我!

O LORD, rebuke me not in your anger,nor discipline me in your wrath!

2

因為,你的箭射入我身;你的手重壓著我。

For your arrows have sunk into me,and your hand has come down on me.

3

因你的憤怒,使我體無完膚;因我的罪惡,我的骨頭不得安寧。

There is no soundness in my fleshbecause of your indignation;there is no health in my bonesbecause of my sin.

4

因為我的罪責淹沒頭頂;又如重擔使我擔當不起。

For my iniquities have gone over my head;like a heavy burden, they are too heavy for me.

5

因為我的愚昧,我的傷口發臭流膿。

My wounds stink and festerbecause of my foolishness,

6

我彎腰屈身,垂頭喪氣,整天在哀痛中走來走去。

I am utterly bowed down and prostrate;all the day I go about mourning.

7

因為,我的腰滿了灼痛,我身上體無完膚。

For my sides are filled with burning,and there is no soundness in my flesh.

8

我筋疲力盡,被徹底壓垮,我發出吼叫,因內心痛苦。

I am feeble and crushed;I groan because of the tumult of my heart.

9

主啊,我的心願都在你眼前,我的歎息不向你隱瞞!

O Lord, all my longing is before you;my sighing is not hidden from you.

10

我的心悸動,我的力量耗盡;我的眼也失去光彩。

My heart throbs; my strength fails me,and the light of my eyes—it also has gone from me.

11

我的良朋密友,因我的災禍,都袖手旁觀;連我的親人都站得遠遠的。

My friends and companions stand aloof from my plague,and my nearest kin stand far off.

12

那些圖謀害我的人,設下羅網;那些想要害我的人,威脅把我滅掉;他們整天盤算詭計。

Those who seek my life lay their snares;those who seek my hurt speak of ruinand meditate treachery all day long.

13

但我像聾人,無法聽見;又像啞巴,無法開口。

But I am like a deaf man; I do not hear,like a mute man who does not open his mouth.

14

我好像一個聽不見的人;口中也沒有辯駁。

I have become like a man who does not hear,and in whose mouth are no rebukes.

15

但耶和華啊,我仰望你!主,我的 神啊,你會親自應允我!

But for you, O LORD, do I wait;it is you, O Lord my God, who will answer.

16

我曾說:別讓他們對我幸災樂禍;我腳步踉蹌的時候,他們對我妄自尊大。

For I said, “Only let them not rejoice over me,who boast against me when my foot slips!”

17

因為我隨時都會跌倒;我的痛苦常在我面前。

For I am ready to fall,and my pain is ever before me.

18

我要承認我的罪行;我要因我的罪憂傷。

I confess my iniquity;I am sorry for my sin.

19

我的仇敵勢力強大;無故恨我的人眾多。

But my foes are vigorous, they are mighty,and many are those who hate me wrongfully.

20

那些以惡報善的人與我作對,因我追求良善。

Those who render me evil for goodaccuse me because I follow after good.

21

耶和華啊,求你不要離棄我!我的 神啊,求你不要遠離我!

Do not forsake me, O LORD!O my God, be not far from me!

拯救我的主啊,求你快來幫助我!

Make haste to help me,O Lord, my salvation!

詩篇 39
Psalm 39

人生虛幻,惟主是盼

What Is the Measure of My Days?

大衛的詩,交給詩班長耶杜頓。

To the choirmaster: to Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.

1

我曾說:“我要持守我的道路,免得我以口舌犯罪;當惡人在我面前時,我要用口套約束嘴。”

I said, “I will guard my ways,that I may not sin with my tongue;I will guard my mouth with a muzzle,so long as the wicked are in my presence.”

2

我靜默不出聲,連好話也不說,我的痛苦就更加劇烈。

I was mute and silent;I held my peace to no avail,and my distress grew worse.

3

我的心在我裡面發熱,吟誦的時候心如火燒;我就用舌頭說話:

My heart became hot within me.As I mused, the fire burned;then I spoke with my tongue:

4

耶和華啊,求你讓我知道我的結局,我的年日有多少;好叫我知道,我的生命多麼短暫易逝!

“O LORD, make me know my endand what is the measure of my days;let me know how fleeting I am!

5

你使我的年日窄如手掌,我的一生在你面前如同無物;人活著,不過是一口氣。(細拉)

Behold, you have made my days a few handbreadths,and my lifetime is as nothing before you.Surely all mankind stands as a mere breath! Selah

6

世人來去是幻影,他們忙碌是虛空;他們積聚,卻不知誰來收取。

Surely a man goes about as a shadow!Surely for nothing they are in turmoil;man heaps up wealth and does not know who will gather!

7

主啊,現在我還等候甚麼呢?我的指望在於你!

“And now, O Lord, for what do I wait?My hope is in you.

8

求你搭救我脫離我一切的過犯;使我不遭愚妄的人羞辱!

Deliver me from all my transgressions.Do not make me the scorn of the fool!

9

因為是你做這事,我就靜默不開口。

I am mute; I do not open my mouth,for it is you who have done it.

10

求你免除你降在我身上的災禍;因為你的手責打,我就滅亡。

Remove your stroke from me;I am spent by the hostility of your hand.

11

你因為人犯罪,就用責罰管教他;叫他所喜愛的滅亡,如被蟲蛀蝕。其實人不過是一口氣。(細拉)

When you discipline a manwith rebukes for sin,you consume like a moth what is dear to him;surely all mankind is a mere breath! Selah

12

耶和華啊,求你垂聽我的禱告,張開耳朵聽我的呼求!不要對我的眼淚無動於衷!因為我在你面前是寄居者、暫住者,像我所有的祖先一樣。

“Hear my prayer, O LORD,and give ear to my cry;hold not your peace at my tears!For I am a sojourner with you,a guest, like all my fathers.

13

求你放過我,使我去而不返之前可以喜樂。

Look away from me, that I may smile again,before I depart and am no more!”

詩篇 40
Psalm 40

當尊耶和華為大!

My Help and My Deliverer

大衛的詩,交給詩班長。

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.

1

我曾熱切等候耶和華;他就轉向我,垂聽我的呼求。

I waited patiently for the LORD;he inclined to me and heard my cry.

2

他把我從悲慘的坑裡,從泥淖中拉上來;使我雙腳立在巖山上,使我的腳步穩當。

He drew me up from the pit of destruction,out of the miry bog,and set my feet upon a rock,making my steps secure.

3

他把新歌放在我的口中,就是對我們 神的讚美。許多人看見就敬畏,並且要倚靠耶和華。

He put a new song in my mouth,a song of praise to our God.Many will see and fear,and put their trust in the LORD.

4

那倚靠耶和華,不理會狂傲和偏向虛謊的人,真是有福!

Blessed is the man who makesthe LORD his trust,who does not turn to the proud,to those who go astray after a lie!

5

耶和華我的 神啊,你為我們安排的奇妙作為甚多,沒有人可以和你相比!我要宣告述說,它們多得不可勝數!

You have multiplied, O LORD my God,your wondrous deeds and your thoughts toward us;none can compare with you!I will proclaim and tell of them,yet they are more than can be told.

6

祭物和禮物,你不喜悅,但你開通了我的耳朵;燔祭和贖罪祭,你未曾想要。

In sacrifice and offering you have not delighted,but you have given me an open ear.Burnt offering and sin offeringyou have not required.

7

那時我說:“看哪,我來了,經卷上已經記載我的事。

Then I said, “Behold, I have come;in the scroll of the book it is written of me:

8

我的 神啊,我樂意遵行你的旨意!你的律法常在我心裡。”

I delight to do your will, O my God;your law is within my heart.”

9

我在大會中傳揚公義的福音;我的嘴唇我斷不會抑止!耶和華啊,你自己都知道!

I have told the glad news of deliverancein the great congregation;behold, I have not restrained my lips,as you know, O LORD.

10

你的公義,我沒有隱藏在我心裡,你的信實和你的救恩,我已述說。我在大會中,沒有隱瞞你的忠誠之愛和誠實。

I have not hidden your deliverance within my heart;I have spoken of your faithfulness and your salvation;I have not concealed your steadfast love and your faithfulnessfrom the great congregation.

11

而你—耶和華啊,求你不要向我停止你的慈悲!願你的忠誠之愛和誠實,常常保護我!

As for you, O LORD, you will not restrainyour mercy from me;your steadfast love and your faithfulness willever preserve me!

12

因有數之不盡的禍患圍繞我;我的罪責追上我,使我不敢回顧;比我的頭髮還多,使我膽戰心驚。

For evils have encompassed mebeyond number;my iniquities have overtaken me,and I cannot see;they are more than the hairs of my head;my heart fails me.

13

耶和華啊,求你開恩搭救我!耶和華啊,求你快來幫助我!

Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me!O LORD, make haste to help me!

14

願那些圖謀害我,要奪我命的人,都一同抱愧蒙羞!願那些喜悅我遭害的人,都退後受辱!

Let those be put to shame and disappointed altogetherwho seek to snatch away my life;let those be turned back and brought to dishonorwho delight in my hurt!

15

願那些對我說“啊哈!啊哈!”的人,都因羞愧而驚惶!

Let those be appalled because of their shamewho say to me, “Aha, Aha!”

16

願所有尋求你的人,都因你而歡喜快樂!願那些喜愛你救恩的人常說:“要尊耶和華為大!”

But may all who seek yourejoice and be glad in you;may those who love your salvationsay continually, “Great is the LORD!”

17

而我,我貧苦窮困,主仍顧念我。你是我的幫助,我的拯救;我的 神啊,求你不要耽延!

As for me, I am poor and needy,but the Lord takes thought for me.You are my help and my deliverer;do not delay, O my God!

41
詩篇 41
Psalm 41

關心貧困者的人真是有福

O LORD, Be Gracious to Me

大衛的詩,交給詩班長。

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.

1

關心貧困者的人,真是有福!在遭難的日子,耶和華要拯救他。

Blessed is the one who considers the poor!In the day of trouble the LORD delivers him;

2

耶和華要守護他,使他存活;他必在地上蒙福。求你不要把他交給仇敵,遂其所願!

the LORD protects him and keeps him alive;he is called blessed in the land;you do not give him up to the will of his enemies.

3

他在病床上,耶和華扶持他;在病榻中你使他完全康復。

The LORD sustains him on his sickbed;in his illness you restore him to full health.

4

而我,我曾說:“耶和華啊,求你恩待我!我犯罪干犯了你,求你醫好我。”

As for me, I said, “O LORD, be gracious to me;heal me, for I have sinned against you!”

5

我的仇敵惡言中傷我,說:“他甚麼時候才死?他的名甚麼時候才滅絕?”

My enemies say of me in malice,“When will he die, and his name perish?”

6

即使他來看我,所說的也是假話;他心懷惡意,走到外面才說出來。

And when one comes to see me, he utters empty words,while his heart gathers iniquity;when he goes out, he tells it abroad.

7

所有恨我的人,都交頭接耳議論我;他們設計要害我,說:

All who hate me whisper together about me;they imagine the worst for me.

8

“他有惡病纏身,既躺下了,就會一病不起。”

They say, “A deadly thing is poured out on him;he will not rise again from where he lies.”

9

連我知己的朋友,我所倚靠、向來吃我餅的人,也抬起他的腳跟踩我。

Even my close friend in whom I trusted,who ate my bread, has lifted his heel against me.

10

而你,耶和華啊,求你恩待我!讓我康復起來,好報復他們!

But you, O LORD, be gracious to me,and raise me up, that I may repay them!

11

這樣我就知道你喜悅我,因為我的仇敵不能向我誇勝。

By this I know that you delight in me:my enemy will not shout in triumph over me.

12

而我,由於我正直,你就扶持我;你使我站立在你面前,直到永遠。

But you have upheld me because of my integrity,and set me in your presence forever.

13

耶和華以色列的 神配受稱頌,從永遠到永遠!阿們!阿們!

Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel,from everlasting to everlasting! Amen and Amen.

我的心渴慕 神,像鹿渴慕溪水

Book Two

Why Are You Cast Down, O My Soul?

Why Are You Cast Down, O My Soul?

可拉後裔的訓誨詩,交給詩班長。

To the choirmaster. A Maskil of the Sons of Korah.

1

神啊,我的心渴慕你,像鹿渴慕溪水!

As a deer pants for flowing streams,so pants my soul for you, O God.

2

我的心渴想 神,就是永活的 神,我甚麼時候才可以朝見 神呢?

My soul thirsts for God,for the living God.When shall I come and appear before God?

3

當人整天對我說:“你的 神在哪裡呢?”我就晝夜以眼淚當食物。

My tears have been my foodday and night,while they say to me all the day long,“Where is your God?”

4

從前我與群眾同行,領他們到 神的殿;用歡呼和讚美的聲音,大家守節。每逢追想這些事,我的心就很悲傷。

These things I remember,as I pour out my soul:how I would go with the throngand lead them in procession to the house of Godwith glad shouts and songs of praise,a multitude keeping festival.

5

我的心啊,你為甚麼沮喪?為甚麼在我裡面煩躁?應當仰望 神,因為我還要讚美他;他是我的拯救,我的 神。

Why are you cast down, O my soul,and why are you in turmoil within me?Hope in God; for I shall again praise him,my salvation

6

我的心在我裡面沮喪;因此我從約旦地,從黑門嶺,從米薩山,想念你。

and my God.My soul is cast down within me;therefore I remember youfrom the land of Jordan and of Hermon,from Mount Mizar.

7

你的瀑布轟鳴,深淵就和深淵響應;你的波濤淹沒了我。

Deep calls to deepat the roar of your waterfalls;all your breakers and your waveshave gone over me.

8

白天,願耶和華向我顯示忠誠之愛,夜晚,我要向他歌唱,向賜我生命的 神禱告。

By day the LORD commands his steadfast love,and at night his song is with me,a prayer to the God of my life.

9

我要對 神—我的巖山說:“你為甚麼忘記我?我為甚麼要受仇敵欺壓而哀痛徘徊?”

I say to God, my rock:“Why have you forgotten me?Why do I go mourningbecause of the oppression of the enemy?”

10

我的敵人整天對我說:“你的 神在哪裡呢?”他們辱罵我,好像打碎我的骨頭。

As with a deadly wound in my bones,my adversaries taunt me,while they say to me all the day long,“Where is your God?”

11

我的心啊,你為甚麼沮喪?為甚麼在我裡面煩躁?應當仰望 神,因為我還要讚美他;他是我的拯救,我的 神。

Why are you cast down, O my soul,and why are you in turmoil within me?Hope in God; for I shall again praise him,my salvation and my God.

43
詩篇 43
Psalm 43

求 神發出真理的亮光引導我

Send Out Your Light and Your Truth

1

神啊,求你為我主持公道,替我申訴冤情,救我脫離不忠信的國,脫離詭詐奸惡的人。

Vindicate me, O God, and defend my causeagainst an ungodly people,from the deceitful and unjust mandeliver me!

2

因為你是我的 神,我的避難所;你為甚麼棄絕我?我為甚麼要受仇敵欺壓而哀痛徘徊?

For you are the God in whom I take refuge;why have you rejected me?Why do I go about mourningbecause of the oppression of the enemy?

3

求你發出你真理的亮光,引導我到你的聖山,到你的居所!

Send out your light and your truth;let them lead me;let them bring me to your holy hilland to your dwelling!

4

我要來到 神的祭壇,到我的 神那裡;他是我最大的喜樂。神啊,我的 神啊,我要彈琴讚美你!

Then I will go to the altar of God,to God my exceeding joy,and I will praise you with the lyre,O God, my God.

5

我的心啊,你為甚麼沮喪?為甚麼在我裡面煩躁?應當仰望 神,因為我還要讚美他;他是我的拯救,我的 神。

Why are you cast down, O my soul,and why are you in turmoil within me?Hope in God; for I shall again praise him,my salvation and my God.

詩篇 44
Psalm 44

求 神起來,作我們的幫助

Come to Our Help

可拉後裔的訓誨詩,交給詩班長。

To the choirmaster. A Maskil of the Sons of Korah.

1

神啊,我們親耳聽見,我們的列祖也對我們述說你在古時,在我們列祖的日子,你自己親手所做的事。

O God, we have heard with our ears,our fathers have told us,what deeds you performed in their days,in the days of old:

2

你已剷除列國,卻栽培我們的列祖;你曾苦待眾民,卻使我們的列祖昌盛。

you with your own hand drove out the nations,but them you planted;you afflicted the peoples,but them you set free;

3

因為他們得地,不是靠自己的刀劍,他們得勝,也不是靠自己的手臂;而是靠你的右手、你的手臂、你臉上的榮光,因為你喜悅他們。

for not by their own sword did they win the land,nor did their own arm save them,but your right hand and your arm,and the light of your face,for you delighted in them.

4

神啊,你自己才是我的王,求你發命令,使雅各得勝!

You are my King, O God;ordain salvation for Jacob!

5

靠著你,我們可以打敗仇敵,靠著你的名,我們可以踐踏那些攻擊我們的人。

Through you we push down our foes;through your name we tread down those who rise up against us.

6

因為我不是倚靠自己的弓,我的刀劍也不能使我得勝。

For not in my bow do I trust,nor can my sword save me.

7

但你使我們戰勝仇敵,使憎恨我們的人蒙羞。

But you have saved us from our foesand have put to shame those who hate us.

8

我們整天因 神而誇耀,我們要永遠讚美你的名。(細拉)

In God we have boasted continually,and we will give thanks to your name forever. Selah

9

但如今你竟然棄絕了我們,讓我們受辱!你不再和我們的軍隊一同出征!

But you have rejected us and disgraced usand have not gone out with our armies.

10

你使我們在敵人面前轉身後退;那些憎恨我們的人恣意劫掠。

You have made us turn back from the foe,and those who hate us have gotten spoil.

11

你讓我們像羊被人吞吃;你叫我們四散在列國中。

You have made us like sheep for slaughterand have scattered us among the nations.

12

你把你的子民賤價出售;銷售所得並沒有使你獲利。

You have sold your people for a trifle,demanding no high price for them.

13

你讓我們蒙受鄰國的羞辱,成為周邊人民譏刺的笑柄。

You have made us the taunt of our neighbors,the derision and scorn of those around us.

14

你叫我們在列國中成為話柄;在眾民中令人搖頭。

You have made us a byword among the nations,a laughingstock among the peoples.

15

我整天都面對羞辱,恥辱使我顏面盡失,

All day long my disgrace is before me,and shame has covered my face

16

都因那欺凌和毀謗者的辱罵,又因仇敵和復仇者的緣故。

at the sound of the taunter and reviler,at the sight of the enemy and the avenger.

17

這都臨到我們身上,我們卻沒有忘記你,也沒有違背你的約。

All this has come upon us,though we have not forgotten you,and we have not been false to your covenant.

18

我們的心沒有回轉退縮,我們的腳步也沒有偏離你的道路。

Our heart has not turned back,nor have our steps departed from your way;

19

但你在胡狼出沒之地壓傷我們,用死亡的陰影籠罩我們。

yet you have broken us in the place of jackalsand covered us with the shadow of death.

20

如果我們忘記我們 神的名,或展開雙手向異族的神明禱告,

If we had forgotten the name of our Godor spread out our hands to a foreign god,

21

神必將查究這事,因為他曉得人心中的隱密。

would not God discover this?For he knows the secrets of the heart.

22

為你的緣故,我們終日被殺,被視為待宰的羊。

Yet for your sake we are killed all the day long;we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.

23

主啊,求你醒來!為甚麼還在睡呢?求你起來,不要永遠棄絕我們!

Awake! Why are you sleeping, O Lord?Rouse yourself! Do not reject us forever!

24

你為甚麼掩面,忘了我們所受的苦難和壓迫呢?

Why do you hide your face?Why do you forget our affliction and oppression?

25

我們伏在塵土上,身體緊貼著地面。

For our soul is bowed down to the dust;our belly clings to the ground.

26

求你起來,作我們的幫助!救贖我們,因你有忠誠之愛!

Rise up; come to our help!Redeem us for the sake of your steadfast love!

1

我心裡湧出優美的詞句,我要向王朗誦我的作品,我的舌頭像作家的健筆。

My heart overflows with a pleasing theme;I address my verses to the king;my tongue is like the pen of a ready scribe.

2

你在世人中最英俊,你的嘴傾倒恩惠;所以 神賜福給你,直到永遠。

You are the most handsome of the sons of men;grace is poured upon your lips;therefore God has blessed you forever.

3

大能者啊,願你腰間佩刀,顯揚你的尊榮和威嚴;

Gird your sword on your thigh, O mighty one,in your splendor and majesty!

4

你為真理、謙卑和公義的緣故,勇往直前,真是威嚴;願你的右手指教你可畏的事!

In your majesty ride out victoriouslyfor the cause of truth and meekness and righteousness;let your right hand teach you awesome deeds!

5

你的箭鋒利,射中王之仇敵的心,萬民仆倒在你腳下。

Your arrows are sharpin the heart of the king's enemies;the peoples fall under you.

6

神啊,你的寶座直到永永遠遠,你王國的權杖,是正義的權杖!

Your throne, O God, is forever and ever.The scepter of your kingdom is a scepter of uprightness;

7

你喜愛公義,恨惡邪惡,所以 神,就是你的 神,用喜樂的油膏抹你,勝過膏抹你的同伴。

you have loved righteousness and hated wickedness.Therefore God, your God, has anointed youwith the oil of gladness beyond your companions;

8

你的衣袍散發沒藥、沉香和肉桂的香氣,從象牙宮中有絲弦的樂聲,使你歡喜。

your robes are all fragrant with myrrh and aloes and cassia.From ivory palaces stringed instruments make you glad;

9

各國的公主,佩戴你的珠寶;王后站在你右邊,佩戴俄斐的金飾。

daughters of kings are among your ladies of honor;at your right hand stands the queen in gold of Ophir.

10

女兒啊,你要聽,要看,要留心傾聽!要忘掉你的本族和你的父家,

Hear, O daughter, and consider, and incline your ear:forget your people and your father's house,

11

王就愛慕你的美貌;因為他是你的主,你當向他下拜。

and the king will desire your beauty.Since he is your lord, bow to him.

12

推羅的居民會來進貢,民中的財主懇求你施恩。

The people of Tyre will seek your favor with gifts,the richest of the people.

13

公主在宮中,極其榮華,她的衣裳是用金線繡成;

All glorious is the princess in her chamber, with robes interwoven withgold.

14

她穿著錦繡的華服,被引到王面前;她後面伴隨的童女,被帶到你面前。

In many-colored robes she is led to the king,with her virgin companions following behind her.

15

她們歡喜快樂被引導,她們進入王的宮殿。

With joy and gladness they are led alongas they enter the palace of the king.

16

你的子孫要接續你的列祖;你要立他們為全地的領袖。

In place of your fathers shall be your sons;you will make them princes in all the earth.

17

我要叫你的名世世代代受敬仰;故此他們要讚美你直到永永遠遠!

I will cause your name to be remembered in all generations;therefore nations will praise you forever and ever.

1

神是我們堅固的避難所,是我們在患難中的及時幫助。

God is our refuge and strength,a very present help in trouble.

2

所以,我們不害怕,縱使大地劇烈變動,群山搖撼墜入深海,

Therefore we will not fear though the earth gives way,though the mountains be moved into the heart of the sea,

3

海浪汹湧澎湃,山因海嘯震動。(細拉)

though its waters roar and foam,though the mountains tremble at its swelling. Selah

4

有一條河,這河的引水道使 神的城歡喜,這城就是至高者居住的聖所。

There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,the holy habitation of the Most High.

5

神在其中,這城就不動搖;天一亮, 神就要幫助這城。

God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved;God will help her when morning dawns.

6

列邦喧嚷,列國動搖;神發聲,地就融化。

The nations rage, the kingdoms totter;he utters his voice, the earth melts.

7

萬軍之耶和華與我們同在;雅各的 神是我們避難的高處。(細拉)

The LORD of hosts is with us;the God of Jacob is our fortress. Selah

8

你們來看耶和華的作為,看他怎樣使地荒涼。

Come, behold the works of the LORD,how he has brought desolations on the earth.

9

他使戰爭止息,直到地極;他折斷弓與矛,用火焚燒戰車。

He makes wars cease to the end of the earth;he breaks the bow and shatters the spear;he burns the chariots with fire.

10

你們要停下來,要知道我是 神;我要在列國中被尊崇,在全地被尊崇。

“Be still, and know that I am God.I will be exalted among the nations,I will be exalted in the earth!”

耶和華為大,當受至高的讚美!在我們 神的城中,在他的聖山上。

Great is the LORD and greatly to be praisedin the city of our God!His holy mountain,

2

巍峨壯麗,全地喜悅—這就是錫安山,在北方的極處,是大君王的城。

beautiful in elevation,is the joy of all the earth,Mount Zion, in the far north,the city of the great King.

3

神在錫安的城堡中;顯明他是避難的高處。

Within her citadels Godhas made himself known as a fortress.

4

看哪,列王會師,一同進軍!

For behold, the kings assembled;they came on together.

5

他們一見這城就驚訝,驚惶喪膽,慌忙逃跑。

As soon as they saw it, they were astounded;they were in panic; they took to flight.

6

他們在那裡戰兢恐懼,劇痛好像產婦。

Trembling took hold of them there,anguish as of a woman in labor.

7

你用東風摧毀塔施船隊。

By the east wind you shatteredthe ships of Tarshish.

8

我們眼見,正如我們耳聞,在萬軍之耶和華的城中,在我們 神的城中,神要鞏固這城,直到永遠。(細拉)

As we have heard, so have we seenin the city of the LORD of hosts,in the city of our God,which God will establish forever. Selah

9

神啊,我們在你的殿中,默念你的忠誠之愛!

We have thought on your steadfast love, O God,in the midst of your temple.

10

神啊,你受的讚美就像你的名,直到地極;你的右手充滿公義!

As your name, O God,so your praise reaches to the ends of the earth.Your right hand is filled with righteousness.

11

錫安山歡喜,猶大諸城快樂,都因你的審判。

Let Mount Zion be glad!Let the daughters of Judah rejoicebecause of your judgments!

12

你們當繞行錫安一圈,數點她的城樓,

Walk about Zion, go around her,number her towers,

13

留意她的外牆,察看她的城堡,好對後代述說。

consider well her ramparts,go through her citadels,that you may tell the next generation

14

因為這位 神,永永遠遠是我們的 神;他將引導我們,直到永遠。

that this is God,our God forever and ever.He will guide us forever.

49
詩篇 49
Psalm 49

誰能逃避死亡?

Why Should I Fear in Times of Trouble?

可拉後裔的詩,交給詩班長。

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of the Sons of Korah.

1

萬民啊,你們要聽這話!世上所有的居民啊,你們都要張開耳朵!

Hear this, all peoples!Give ear, all inhabitants of the world,

2

無論地位高低,貧富貴賤,一概都要張開耳朵!

both low and high,rich and poor together!

3

我的口要說出智慧的言語,我的心要默誦通達的道理。

My mouth shall speak wisdom;the meditation of my heart shall be understanding.

4

我的耳要傾聽箴言,我要彈琴解開謎語。

I will incline my ear to a proverb;I will solve my riddle to the music of the lyre.

5

在患難的日子,我為甚麼懼怕呢?欺詐我的人以奸惡包圍我,

Why should I fear in times of trouble,when the iniquity of those who cheat me surrounds me,

6

他們倚靠財富,自誇多金。

those who trust in their wealthand boast of the abundance of their riches?

7

但是無人能贖自己的弟兄,或替他付贖價給 神,

Truly no man can ransom another,or give to God the price of his life,

8

叫他永遠活著,不見朽壞。

for the ransom of their life is costlyand can never suffice,

9

因為生命的贖價極其昂貴,只好永遠放棄。

that he should live on foreverand never see the pit.

10

他要看見智者死去,與愚人和笨伯一同滅亡,把他們的財產留給別人。

For he sees that even the wise die;the fool and the stupid alike must perishand leave their wealth to others.

11

他們用自己的名號,命名自己的土地。墳墓卻是他們永久的家,是他們世世代代的居所。

Their graves are their homes forever,their dwelling places to all generations,though they called lands by their own names.

12

但是人不能永享富貴,就像牲畜終歸滅亡。

Man in his pomp will not remain;he is like the beasts that perish.

13

這就是他們愚昧的行徑;後人竟稱許他們的話語。(細拉)

This is the path of those who have foolish confidence;yet after them people approve of their boasts. Selah

14

他們好像羊被派往陰間,死亡將做他們的牧人。到了早晨,正直的人要管轄他們;他們的形體在陰間衰殘,直至無處可尋。

Like sheep they are appointed for Sheol;death shall be their shepherd,and the upright shall rule over them in the morning.Their form shall be consumed in Sheol, with no place to dwell.

15

但 神將救贖我的性命脫離陰間的權勢;他必把我接去。(細拉)

But God will ransom my soul from the power of Sheol,for he will receive me. Selah

16

有人發財,家道豐厚,你不要懼怕。

Be not afraid when a man becomes rich,when the glory of his house increases.

17

因為他死的時候,甚麼都不能帶走;他的財富不能隨他下去。

For when he dies he will carry nothing away;his glory will not go down after him.

18

他在世的時候,雖然自誇有福:“你若利己,人必誇讚你。”

For though, while he lives, he counts himself blessed—and though you get praise when you do well for yourself—

19

他卻要歸到他歷代祖先那裡,永不再見光明。

his soul will go to the generation of his fathers,who will never again see light.

20

人享富貴卻不明智,就像牲畜終歸滅亡。

Man in his pomp yet without understanding is like the beasts that perish.

50
詩篇 50
Psalm 50

神喜悅的敬拜

God Himself Is Judge

亞薩的詩。

A Psalm of Asaph.

1

大能者 神耶和華,說話呼喚大地,從日出之地到日落之處。

The Mighty One, God the LORD,speaks and summons the earthfrom the rising of the sun to its setting.

2

從絕美的錫安,神發出了光輝。

Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty,God shines forth.

3

我們的 神來到,絕不默默無聲;烈火在他面前吞噬,狂風在他四周颳起。

Our God comes; he does not keep silence;before him is a devouring fire,around him a mighty tempest.

4

他呼喚上天與大地,為要審判他的子民。

He calls to the heavens aboveand to the earth, that he may judge his people:

5

說:“你們招聚對我忠誠的人到我這裡來,就是那些用祭物與我立約的人。”

“Gather to me my faithful ones,who made a covenant with me by sacrifice!”

6

天空宣揚他的公義,因 神親自來審判。(細拉)

The heavens declare his righteousness,for God himself is judge! Selah

7

我的民啊,你們要聽,我要說話!以色列啊,我要控告你!我是 神,是你的 神!

“Hear, O my people, and I will speak;O Israel, I will testify against you.I am God, your God.

8

我不是因你的祭物責備你;你的燔祭常在我面前。

Not for your sacrifices do I rebuke you;your burnt offerings are continually before me.

9

我不從你的家中取公牛;也不從你的圈內取山羊。

I will not accept a bull from your houseor goats from your folds.

10

因為林中的百獸屬我;千山上的牲畜也屬我。

For every beast of the forest is mine,the cattle on a thousand hills.

11

山中的飛鳥,我都認識;野地的走獸,也都屬我。

I know all the birds of the hills,and all that moves in the field is mine.

12

我就算餓了,也不用告訴你;因為世界和其中的萬物都屬我。

“If I were hungry, I would not tell you,for the world and its fullness are mine.

13

難道我要吃公牛的肉嗎?我要喝山羊的血嗎?

Do I eat the flesh of bullsor drink the blood of goats?

14

你要以感謝為祭獻給 神;又要向至高者還你的願。

Offer to God a sacrifice of thanksgiving,and perform your vows to the Most High,

15

在患難的日子你當呼求我,我將搭救你,你就會尊崇我。

and call upon me in the day of trouble;I will deliver you, and you shall glorify me.”

16

對於惡人, 神卻說:“你怎麼敢述說我的律例,你的口怎麼敢提我的約呢?

But to the wicked God says:“What right have you to recite my statutesor take my covenant on your lips?

17

而你呢,竟恨惡管教;把我的話語拋諸腦後。

For you hate discipline,and you cast my words behind you.

18

你見了盜賊,就樂意與他為伍;你又與通姦的人同夥。

If you see a thief, you are pleased with him,and you keep company with adulterers.

19

你任憑自己口出惡言;你的舌編造謊話。

“You give your mouth free rein for evil,and your tongue frames deceit.

20

你坐著說你兄弟的壞話;毀謗你自己母親的兒子。

You sit and speak against your brother;you slander your own mother's son.

21

你做這些事,我默不作聲。你以為我和你一樣。其實我要責備你,把我的指控擺在你的眼前。

These things you have done, and I have been silent;you thought that I was one like yourself.But now I rebuke you and lay the charge before you.

22

忘記 神的人啊,你們要思想這事!免得我把你們撕碎,卻沒有人搭救。”

“Mark this, then, you who forget God,lest I tear you apart, and there be none to deliver!

23

人獻感謝祭,就是尊崇我;人行為正直,我就向他展示 神的救恩。

The one who offers thanksgiving as his sacrifice glorifies me;to one who orders his way rightlyI will show the salvation of God!”

51
詩篇 51
Psalm 51

求 神抹掉我的過犯

Create in Me a Clean Heart, O God

大衛的詩,交給詩班長。大衛與拔詩芭同房,拿單先知來指責他,他因此作了這首詩。

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David, when Nathan the prophet went to him, after he had gone in to Bathsheba.

1

神啊,求你按你的忠誠之愛恩待我!按你豐盛的憐憫抹掉我的過犯!

Have mercy on me, O God,according to your steadfast love;according to your abundant mercyblot out my transgressions.

2

求你徹底洗淨我的罪惡!潔除我的罪!

Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity,and cleanse me from my sin!

3

因為我的過犯,我自己知道;我的罪常在我面前。

For I know my transgressions,and my sin is ever before me.

4

我犯了罪,干犯的唯獨是你;我做了你視為惡的事。因此你宣判的時候顯為公義,審判的時候顯為清正。

Against you, you only, have I sinnedand done what is evil in your sight,so that you may be justified in your wordsand blameless in your judgment.

5

的確,我在罪惡裡出生,在我母親懷我的時候,就有了罪!

Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity,and in sin did my mother conceive me.

6

的確,你喜愛內心的誠實;在我內心深處,你使我得智慧!

Behold, you delight in truth in the inward being,and you teach me wisdom in the secret heart.

7

求你用牛至草潔淨我,我就乾淨!求你洗淨我,我就比雪更白!

Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean;wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

8

求你讓我聽見歡喜快樂的聲音,使你所壓傷的骨頭可以歡樂!

Let me hear joy and gladness;let the bones that you have broken rejoice.

9

求你掩面,不看我的罪!求你抹掉我一切的罪惡!

Hide your face from my sins,and blot out all my iniquities.

10

神啊,求你為我創造清潔的心!使我裡面重新有堅定的靈!

Create in me a clean heart, O God,and renew a right spirit within me.

11

不要丟棄我,以致我離開你的面;不要從我收回你的聖靈!

Cast me not away from your presence,and take not your Holy Spirit from me.

12

求你讓我重得救恩的喜樂;用樂意的靈來扶持我!

Restore to me the joy of your salvation,and uphold me with a willing spirit.

13

我就把你的道路教導有過犯的人。叫罪人回轉歸向你。

Then I will teach transgressors your ways,and sinners will return to you.

14

神啊,拯救我的 神啊,求你救我脫離殺人流血的罪!我的舌頭要頌揚你的公義。

Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God,O God of my salvation,and my tongue will sing aloud of your righteousness.

15

主啊,求你使我的嘴唇張開,我的口要宣揚讚美你的話!

O Lord, open my lips,and my mouth will declare your praise.

16

因為你喜愛的不是祭物;若是喜愛,我就獻上。燔祭,你也不喜悅。

For you will not delight in sacrifice, or I would give it;you will not be pleased with a burnt offering.

17

神所要的祭就是破碎的靈;神啊,破碎痛悔的心,你不輕看!

The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit;a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise.

18

求你按你的美意善待錫安!求你修築耶路撒冷的城牆!

Do good to Zion in your good pleasure;build up the walls of Jerusalem;

19

那時,你會喜悅公義的祭,全牲的燔祭;那時,人要將公牛獻在你的祭壇上。

then will you delight in right sacrifices,in burnt offerings and whole burnt offerings;then bulls will be offered on your altar.

52
詩篇 52
Psalm 52

神必審判惡人

The Steadfast Love of God Endures

大衛的訓誨詩,交給詩班長。伊東人多益來告訴掃羅說:“大衛來到亞希米勒的家。”大衛因此作了這首詩。

To the choirmaster. A Maskil of David, when Doeg, the Edomite, came and told Saul, “David has come to the house of Ahimelech.”

1

勇士啊,你為甚麼以作惡自誇?神的忠誠之愛永存!

Why do you boast of evil, O mighty man?The steadfast love of God endures all the day.

2

你的舌頭像鋒利的剃刀,你圖謀毀滅,常行詭詐。

Your tongue plots destruction,like a sharp razor, you worker of deceit.

3

你愛邪惡,而不愛良善;愛弄虛作假,而不愛說實話。(細拉)

You love evil more than good,and lying more than speaking what is right. Selah

4

詭詐的舌頭啊,你愛說一切毀滅人的話!

You love all words that devour,O deceitful tongue.

5

神必親自拆毀你,直到永遠。他要從帳篷中剔除你,從活人地拔除你。(細拉)

But God will break you down forever;he will snatch and tear you from your tent;he will uproot you from the land of the living. Selah

6

義人看見就懼怕;他們譏笑他,說:

The righteous shall see and fear,and shall laugh at him, saying,

7

“看,這就是不以 神為他避難所的人,他只倚靠自己豐盛的財富,以毀滅別人來壯大自己。”

“See the man who would not makeGod his refuge,but trusted in the abundance of his richesand sought refuge in his own destruction!”

8

而我,就像 神殿中青蔥的橄欖樹,我倚靠 神的忠誠之愛,直到永永遠遠。

But I am like a green olive treein the house of God.I trust in the steadfast love of Godforever and ever.

9

我要永遠讚美你,因為你做了這事;我要在對你忠誠的人面前仰望你的名,因為你的名實在美善。

I will thank you forever,because you have done it.I will wait for your name, for it is good,in the presence of the godly.

53
詩篇 53
Psalm 53

愚妄的人心中沒有 神

There Is None Who Does Good

大衛的訓誨詩,交給詩班長,採用“麻哈拉”的曲調。

To the choirmaster: according to Mahalath. A Maskil of David.

1

愚妄的人心裡說:“沒有 神!”他們敗壞,行事可憎不義,沒有人行善。

The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.”They are corrupt, doing abominable iniquity;there is none who does good.

2

神從天上察看世人,要看有沒有明智的人,有沒有尋求 神的人。

God looks down from heavenon the children of manto see if there are any who understand,who seek after God.

3

人人都背離了 神,一同變得敗壞;沒有人行善,連一個也沒有。

They have all fallen away;together they have become corrupt;there is none who does good,not even one.

4

那些作惡的人全都清楚明白!他們吞吃我的子民好像吃餅,他們不呼求 神。

Have those who work evil no knowledge,who eat up my people as they eat bread,and do not call upon God?

5

他們在無需驚恐之處,卻非常驚恐,因為 神打散那些紮營攻擊你之人的骨頭;你使他們蒙羞,因為 神棄絕他們。

There they are, in great terror,where there is no terror!For God scatters the bones of him who encamps against you;you put them to shame, for God has rejected them.

6

但願以色列的拯救從錫安來臨!當 神復興他的子民,雅各就要快樂,以色列就要歡喜!

Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion!When God restores the fortunes of his people,let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.

54
詩篇 54
Psalm 54

主是我性命的扶持者

The Lord Upholds My Life

大衛的訓誨詩,交給詩班長,用弦樂器伴奏。西弗人來對掃羅說:“大衛就躲在我們的地方!”大衛因此作了這首詩。

To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments. A Maskil of David, when the Ziphites went and told Saul, “Is not David hiding among us?”

1

神啊,求你因你的名拯救我!用你的大能為我申冤!

O God, save me by your name,and vindicate me by your might.

2

神啊,求你垂聽我的禱告!張開耳朵聽我口中的言語!

O God, hear my prayer;give ear to the words of my mouth.

3

因為異族人起來攻擊我,許多暴徒企圖殺害我,他們不把 神放在眼裡。(細拉)

For strangers have risen against me;ruthless men seek my life;they do not set God before themselves. Selah

4

看哪, 神是我的幫助者!主是我性命的扶持者!

Behold, God is my helper;the Lord is the upholder of my life.

5

願災禍報應在我仇敵身上;求你按你的真理殲滅他們!

He will return the evil to my enemies;in your faithfulness put an end to them.

6

我要把甘心祭獻給你;耶和華啊,我要讚美你的名,因為你的名實在美善!

With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to you;I will give thanks to your name, O LORD, for it is good.

7

因為他救我脫離一切的患難;我親眼看見仇敵遭報應。

For he has delivered me from every trouble,and my eye has looked in triumph on my enemies.

55
詩篇 55
Psalm 55

被好友出賣的禱告

Cast Your Burden on the LORD

大衛的訓誨詩,交給詩班長,用弦樂器伴奏。

To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments. A Maskil of David.

1

神啊,求你張開耳朵聽我的禱告!不要隱藏不理我的懇求!

Give ear to my prayer, O God,and hide not yourself from my plea for mercy!

2

求你留心聽我,應允我!我躁動哀歎,聲聲不絕,

Attend to me, and answer me;I am restless in my complaint and I moan,

3

這都是由於仇敵的聲音,又因惡人的欺壓;因為他們加罪於我,發怒害我。

because of the noise of the enemy,because of the oppression of the wicked.For they drop trouble upon me,and in anger they bear a grudge against me.

4

我的心在我裡面顫抖;死亡的恐怖落於我身。

My heart is in anguish within me;the terrors of death have fallen upon me.

5

懼怕與戰慄臨到我,驚恐籠罩著我。

Fear and trembling come upon me,and horror overwhelms me.

6

我說:“但願我有翅膀像鴿子,我就飛去,可以安然居住。

And I say, “Oh, that I had wings like a dove!I would fly away and be at rest;

7

的確,我要逃往遠方,在荒野裡住宿。

yes, I would wander far away;I would lodge in the wilderness; Selah

8

我要奔往我的避難所,躲避狂風暴雨。”

I would hurry to find a shelterfrom the raging wind and tempest.”

9

主啊,求你吞滅他們,使他們意見分歧!因為我看見城中有凶暴和爭鬥。

Destroy, O Lord, divide their tongues;for I see violence and strife in the city.

10

白天和晚上,他們繞行在城牆上;城中有罪惡和毒害。

Day and night they go around iton its walls,and iniquity and trouble are within it;

11

城中有毀滅;欺壓和詭詐不離開街道。

ruin is in its midst;oppression and frauddo not depart from its marketplace.

12

原來不是仇敵辱罵我,若是,我還可以忍受;也不是恨我的人對我狂妄自大,若是,我還可以躲避。

For it is not an enemy who taunts me—then I could bear it;it is not an adversary who deals insolently with me—then I could hide from him.

13

豈料是你;你原與我同等,是我的好友,我的知己。

But it is you, a man, my equal,my companion, my familiar friend.

14

我們常在一起交談甚歡;我們在 神的殿中與群眾同行。

We used to take sweet counsel together;within God's house we walked in the throng.

15

願死亡忽然臨到他們,願他們活活的下陰間;因為邪惡在他們的住處,在他們心中。

Let death steal over them;let them go down to Sheol alive;for evil is in their dwelling place and in their heart.

16

然而我,我要呼求 神;耶和華會拯救我!

But I call to God,and the LORD will save me.

17

無論晚上、早晨或中午,我悲訴哀歎,他會聽我的聲音!

Evening and morning and at noonI utter my complaint and moan,and he hears my voice.

18

他救贖我的性命,脫離攻擊我的人,使我得享平安,儘管攻擊我的人甚多。

He redeems my soul in safetyfrom the battle that I wage,for many are arrayed against me.

19

亙古以來就坐在寶座上的 神會聽見,就使他們受苦。(細拉)這是因為他們不肯改變,不敬畏 神。

God will give ear and humble them,he who is enthroned from of old, Selahbecause they do not changeand do not fear God.

20

他伸手攻擊與他和好的人,違背了自己的約。

My companion stretched out his hand against his friends;he violated his covenant.

21

他的口比奶油光滑,他的心卻充滿戰鬥;他的話比膏油柔和,其實是拔出來的刀。

His speech was smooth as butter,yet war was in his heart;his words were softer than oil,yet they were drawn swords.

22

你要把重擔卸給耶和華,他就會扶持你,他永遠不會讓義人動搖。

Cast your burden on the LORD,and he will sustain you;he will never permitthe righteous to be moved.

23

但是你, 神啊,你要叫惡人下到滅亡的深坑;嗜血之徒和詭詐的人,將活不到半世,而我,我要倚靠你!

But you, O God, will cast them downinto the pit of destruction;men of blood and treacheryshall not live out half their days.But I will trust in you.

56
詩篇 56
Psalm 56

我倚靠 神,人能把我怎樣呢?

In God I Trust

大衛的金詩,交給詩班長,採用“遠方無聲鴿”的曲調。非利士人在迦特捉住他,他因此作了這首詩。

To the choirmaster: according to The Dove on Far-off Terebinths. A Miktam of David, when the Philistines seized him in Gath.

1

神啊,求你恩待我!因為人們踐踏我,攻擊我的人整天壓迫我。

Be gracious to me, O God, for man tramples on me;all day long an attacker oppresses me;

2

我的仇敵整天踐踏我;至高者啊,攻擊我的人實在眾多!

my enemies trample on me all day long,for many attack me proudly.

3

我懼怕的日子,仍要倚靠你。

When I am afraid,I put my trust in you.

4

我倚靠 神,我要讚美他的話語,我倚靠 神,就不懼怕;血肉凡人能把我怎樣呢?

In God, whose word I praise,in God I trust; I shall not be afraid.What can flesh do to me?

5

他們整天歪曲我的話,挖空心思圖謀陷害我。

All day long they injure my cause;all their thoughts are against me for evil.

6

他們結夥埋伏,監視我的蹤跡,伺機害我性命。

They stir up strife, they lurk;they watch my steps,as they have waited for my life.

7

他們既然作惡,又豈能逃脫呢?神啊,求你在怒中傾覆列國!

For their crime will they escape?In wrath cast down the peoples, O God!

8

我幾次流離失所,你都親自計數,我的眼淚,你都裝在你的皮袋裡;這都一定記在你的冊上了!

You have kept count of my tossings;put my tears in your bottle.Are they not in your book?

9

我呼求的時候,仇敵都轉身退後;這樣我就知道, 神是幫助我的。

Then my enemies will turn backin the day when I call.This I know, that God is for me.

10

我倚靠 神,我要讚美他的話語;靠著耶和華,我要讚美他的話語。

In God, whose word I praise,in the LORD, whose word I praise,

11

我倚靠 神,就不懼怕;人能把我怎樣呢?

in God I trust; I shall not be afraid.What can man do to me?

12

神啊,我曾向你許願;我要獻感恩祭向你還願!

I must perform my vows to you, O God;I will render thank offerings to you.

13

因為你搭救我的性命脫離死亡,絕不會讓我的腳絆倒!這樣我就可以行在 神的面前,行在生命的光中。

For you have delivered my soul from death,yes, my feet from falling,that I may walk before Godin the light of life.

57
詩篇 57
Psalm 57

群獅環伺,心仍堅定

Let Your Glory Be over All the Earth

大衛的金詩,交給詩班長,採用“休要毀壞”的曲調。大衛逃避掃羅,藏在洞裡,因此作了這首詩。

To the choirmaster: according to Do Not Destroy. A Miktam of David, when he fled from Saul, in the cave.

1

神啊,求你恩待我!恩待我!因為我的心投靠你;我要投靠在你翅膀的蔭下,直到禍患過去。

Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me,for in you my soul takes refuge;in the shadow of your wings I will take refuge,till the storms of destruction pass by.

2

我要呼求至高的 神,就是為我止息禍患的 神。

I cry out to God Most High,to God who fulfills his purpose for me.

3

神從天上施恩拯救我,斥責那踐踏我的人;(細拉)神發出他的忠誠之愛和信實。

He will send from heaven and save me;he will put to shame him who tramples on me. SelahGod will send out his steadfast love and his faithfulness!

4

我躺臥在獅群中間,就是暴戾如火的世人;他們的牙齒是矛、箭,他們的舌頭是利刃。

My soul is in the midst of lions;I lie down amid fiery beasts—the children of man, whose teeth are spears and arrows,whose tongues are sharp swords.

5

神啊,願你被尊崇,高過天空!願你的榮耀,遍滿大地!

Be exalted, O God, above the heavens!Let your glory be over all the earth!

6

他們為我的腳設下羅網,要使我屈服;他們在我面前挖了坑,自己反掉進坑裡。(細拉)

They set a net for my steps;my soul was bowed down.They dug a pit in my way,but they have fallen into it themselves. Selah

7

神啊,我心堅定,我心堅定;我要歌唱,我要頌讚!

My heart is steadfast, O God,my heart is steadfast!I will sing and make melody!

8

我的靈啊,醒來吧!琴瑟啊,醒來吧!我要喚醒黎明!

Awake, my glory!Awake, O harp and lyre!I will awake the dawn!

9

主啊,我要在眾民中讚美你!我要在萬族中歌頌你!

I will give thanks to you, O Lord, among the peoples;I will sing praises to you among the nations.

10

因為你的忠誠之愛實在偉大,高及天空;你的信實直達雲霄。

For your steadfast love is great to the heavens,your faithfulness to the clouds.

11

神啊,願你被尊崇,高過天空!願你的榮耀,遍滿大地!

Be exalted, O God, above the heavens!Let your glory be over all the earth!

58
詩篇 58
Psalm 58

惡人遭報,義人歡喜

God Who Judges the Earth

大衛的金詩,交給詩班長,採用“休要毀壞”的曲調。

To the choirmaster: according to Do Not Destroy. A Miktam of David.

1

掌權者啊,你們說話合乎公義嗎?你們真的是按正直審判世人嗎?

Do you indeed decree what is right, you gods?Do you judge the children of man uprightly?

2

不是的,你們心中奸惡,在地上,你們的手施行凶暴。

No, in your hearts you devise wrongs;your hands deal out violence on earth.

3

惡人一出娘胎,就與 神疏離,一出母腹,就走錯路,說謊話。

The wicked are estranged from the womb;they go astray from birth, speaking lies.

4

他們的毒,好像蛇毒,他們又像耳聾的眼鏡蛇,把耳朵塞住,

They have venom like the venom of a serpent,like the deaf adder that stops its ear,

5

聽不見喃喃唸咒者的聲音,即使這些人精通咒語。

so that it does not hear the voice of charmersor of the cunning enchanter.

6

神啊,求你打碎他們口中的牙齒!耶和華啊,求你敲掉獅子的大牙!

O God, break the teeth in their mouths;tear out the fangs of the young lions, O LORD!

7

願他們消滅,如水流逝;願他們凋萎,如被踐踏的草;

Let them vanish like water that runs away;when he aims his arrows, let them be blunted.

8

願他們像蝸牛,爬過就消逝;像婦人的死胎,見不到太陽!

Let them be like the snail that dissolves into slime,like the stillborn child who never sees the sun.

9

你們用刺棗樹燒火,鍋還未熱,他就用風把綠葉枯枝都颳走。

Sooner than your pots can feel the heat of thorns,whether green or ablaze, may he sweep them away!

10

義人見惡人遭報就歡喜;他要在惡人的血中洗腳。

The righteous will rejoice when he sees the vengeance;he will bathe his feet in the blood of the wicked.

11

因此人要說:“義人果真有善報,地上真的有施行審判的 神。”

Mankind will say, “Surely there is a reward for the righteous;surely there is a God who judges on earth.”

59
詩篇 59
Psalm 59

神啊,你是我避難的高處!

Deliver Me from My Enemies

大衛的金詩,交給詩班長,採用“休要毀壞”的曲調。掃羅派人窺探大衛的家,要殺他,他因此作了這首詩。

To the choirmaster: according to Do Not Destroy. A Miktam of David, when Saul sent men to watch his house in order to kill him.

1

我的 神啊,求你搭救我,脫離我的仇敵!求你將我安置在避難的高處,脫離那些起來攻擊我的人!

Deliver me from my enemies, O my God;protect me from those who rise up against me;

2

求你搭救我,脫離那些作惡的人!求你拯救我,脫離那些嗜血之徒!

deliver me from those who work evil,and save me from bloodthirsty men.

3

要知道,他們埋伏,為要害我的性命,大有權勢的人聚集攻擊我;耶和華啊,這不是因為我的過犯,也不是因為我的罪惡。

For behold, they lie in wait for my life;fierce men stir up strife against me.For no transgression or sin of mine, O LORD,

4

我雖然沒有罪,他們還是跑來,預備好來攻擊我。求你起來幫助我,鑒察這事!

for no fault of mine, they run and make ready.Awake, come to meet me, and see!

5

耶和華萬軍之 神啊,你是以色列的 神!求你醒來,懲罰列國!求你不要恩待那些背信棄義的惡人!(細拉)

You, LORD God of hosts, are God of Israel.Rouse yourself to punish all the nations;spare none of those who treacherously plot evil. Selah

6

他們晚上回來,如狗狂吠,繞城而行。

Each evening they come back,howling like dogsand prowling about the city.

7

聽吧!他們口吐惡言,嘴裡有刀;他們說:“有誰聽得見呢?”

There they are, bellowing with their mouthswith swords in their lips—for “Who,” they think, “will hear us?”

8

而你,耶和華啊,你要笑他們,你要譏笑列國!

But you, O LORD, laugh at them;you hold all the nations in derision.

9

我的力量啊,我要仰望你!因為 神啊,你是我避難的高處!

O my Strength, I will watch for you,for you, O God, are my fortress.

10

向我施忠誠之愛的 神將與我會合;神讓我可以傲視仇敵。

My God in his steadfast love will meet me;God will let me look in triumph on my enemies.

11

不要殺他們,免得我的民忘記!主啊,你是我們的盾牌;求你用你的權能使他們四處飄流,使他們倒下!

Kill them not, lest my people forget;make them totter by your power and bring them down,O Lord, our shield!

12

因他們口中的罪,嘴裡的言語,願他們被自己的驕傲絆倒,因為他們發出咒罵和欺騙。

For the sin of their mouths, the words of their lips,let them be trapped in their pride.For the cursing and lies that they utter,

13

求你在怒火中消滅他們,徹底消滅他們;好讓他們知道,神在雅各中掌權,直到地極。(細拉)

consume them in wrath;consume them till they are no more,that they may know that God rules over Jacobto the ends of the earth. Selah

14

他們晚上回來,如狗狂吠,繞城而行。

Each evening they come back,howling like dogsand prowling about the city.

15

他們四處飄流,尋找食物;若不得飽足,就不斷咆哮。

They wander about for foodand growl if they do not get their fill.

16

而我,我要歌頌你的力量,早晨我要高唱你的忠誠之愛;因為你是我避難的高處,你是我急難中的庇護。

But I will sing of your strength;I will sing aloud of your steadfast love in the morning.For you have been to me a fortressand a refuge in the day of my distress.

17

我的力量啊,我要歌頌你!因為 神是我避難的高處,是向我施忠誠之愛的 神。

O my Strength, I will sing praises to you,for you, O God, are my fortress,the God who shows me steadfast love.

60
詩篇 60
Psalm 60

從前戰敗,現在求 神幫助戰勝仇敵

He Will Tread Down Our Foes

大衛的金詩,交給詩班長,採用“為證的百合花”的曲調,用於教導。大衛與兩河間的亞蘭及瑣巴的亞蘭打仗,約押轉回,攻擊鹽谷的伊東人,殺了一萬二千人。大衛因此作了這首詩。

To the choirmaster: according to Shushan Eduth. A Miktam of David; for instruction; when he strove with Aram-naharaim and with Aram-zobah, and when Joab on his return struck down twelve thousand of Edom in the Valley of Salt.

1

神啊,你棄絕了我們,擊碎了我們;你曾向我們發怒,求你使我們復興!

O God, you have rejected us, broken our defenses;you have been angry; oh, restore us.

2

你使地震動崩裂,求你修補裂口,因為地正在搖動。

You have made the land to quake; you have torn it open;repair its breaches, for it totters.

3

你使你的子民經歷艱辛;你使我們喝酒,醉得東倒西歪。

You have made your people see hard things;you have given us wine to drink that made us stagger.

4

你把旗幟賜給敬畏你的人,讓他們逃到那裡躲避弓箭。(細拉)

You have set up a banner for those who fear you,that they may flee to it from the bow. Selah

5

求你用你的右手拯救我們,應允我們,使你所愛的人獲救!

That your beloved ones may be delivered,give salvation by your right hand and answer us!

6

神憑著自己的聖潔說:“我要誇勝;我要分配示劍,而棚村谷,我要量度。

God has spoken in his holiness:“With exultation I will divide up Shechemand portion out the Vale of Succoth.

7

基列屬我,瑪拿西也屬我;以法蓮是我的頭盔,猶大是我的權杖。

Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine;Ephraim is my helmet;Judah is my scepter.

8

摩押是我的洗濯盆,我要向伊東拋鞋;非利士啊,你要因我吶喊!”

Moab is my washbasin;upon Edom I cast my shoe;over Philistia I shout in triumph.”

9

誰能領我進設防城?誰能帶我到伊東地?

Who will bring me to the fortified city?Who will lead me to Edom?

10

神啊,你竟然棄絕了我們!神啊,你不再和我們的軍隊一同出征!

Have you not rejected us, O God?You do not go forth, O God, with our armies.

11

求你幫助我們脫離敵人,因為人的救助真是枉然。

Oh, grant us help against the foe,for vain is the salvation of man!

12

我們倚靠 神,奮勇作戰;他自己將踐踏我們的敵人!

With God we shall do valiantly;it is he who will tread down our foes.

61
詩篇 61
Psalm 61

投靠在 神翅膀下的隱密處

Lead Me to the Rock

大衛的詩,交給詩班長,用弦樂器伴奏。

To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments. Of David.

1

神啊,求你垂聽我的呼求!留心聽我的禱告!

Hear my cry, O God,listen to my prayer;

2

在我內心沮喪時,我從地極呼求你;求你領我到比我高的石山那裡!

from the end of the earth I call to youwhen my heart is faint.Lead me to the rockthat is higher than I,

3

因為你一向是我的避難所;是我躲避仇敵的堅固城樓。

for you have been my refuge,a strong tower against the enemy.

4

我要永遠住在你的帳幕裡;投靠在你翅膀下的隱密處。(細拉)

Let me dwell in your tent forever!Let me take refuge under the shelter of your wings! Selah

5

因為你, 神啊,你已聽了我所許的願;你將產業賜給敬畏你名的人!

For you, O God, have heard my vows;you have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.

6

願你增添王的壽數;願他的年歲世世無窮。

Prolong the life of the king;may his years endure to all generations!

7

願他在 神面前永遠坐在寶座上;願你以忠誠之愛和信實守護他。

May he be enthroned forever before God;appoint steadfast love and faithfulness to watch over him!

8

這樣,我要永遠歌頌你的名;天天還我所許的願。

So will I ever sing praises to your name,as I perform my vows day after day.

62
詩篇 62
Psalm 62

我心靜默,惟等候 神

My Soul Waits for God Alone

大衛的詩,交給詩班長,採用“耶杜頓”的曲調。

To the choirmaster: according to Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.

1

我的心靜默無聲,唯獨等候 神;我的拯救從他而來。

For God alone my soul waits in silence;from him comes my salvation.

2

唯獨他是我的石山,我的拯救;是我避難的高處,我永不動搖。

He only is my rock and my salvation,my fortress; I shall not be greatly shaken.

3

你們大家攻擊一人,要殺害他,如同拆毀傾斜的牆、將倒的壁,要到幾時呢?

How long will all of you attack a manto batter him,like a leaning wall, a tottering fence?

4

他們彼此商議,務必把他從高位上拉下來;他們喜愛謊話,口雖祝福,心卻詛咒。(細拉)

They only plan to thrust him down from his high position.They take pleasure in falsehood.They bless with their mouths,but inwardly they curse. Selah

5

我的心啊,你當靜默無聲,唯獨等候 神;因為我的盼望從他而來。

For God alone, O my soul, wait in silence,for my hope is from him.

6

唯獨他是我的石山、我的拯救;是我避難的高處,我不會動搖。

He only is my rock and my salvation,my fortress; I shall not be shaken.

7

我的拯救、我的榮耀,都在於 神;我堅固的石山、我的避難所,都在於 神。

On God rests my salvation and my glory;my mighty rock, my refuge is God.

8

子民啊,你們要時刻倚靠他,在他面前傾心吐意,因為 神是我們的避難所!(細拉)

Trust in him at all times, O people;pour out your heart before him;God is a refuge for us. Selah

9

卑賤的人真是虛空,尊貴的人也是虛謊;他們放在天平上就升起,加起來比空氣還輕。

Those of low estate are but a breath;those of high estate are a delusion;in the balances they go up;they are together lighter than a breath.

10

不要仗勢欺人,不要妄想欺凌;若財富增加,不要放在心上。

Put no trust in extortion;set no vain hopes on robbery;if riches increase, set not your heart on them.

11

神說了一遍,我聽了兩遍:權能屬於 神!

Once God has spoken;twice have I heard this:that power belongs to God,

12

主啊,忠誠之愛也屬於你!你將按每個人的行為施行賞罰。

and that to you, O Lord, belongs steadfast love.For you will render to a manaccording to his work.

63
詩篇 63
Psalm 63

我懇切尋求 神

My Soul Thirsts for You

大衛的詩,作於猶大的荒野。

A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah.

1

神啊,你是我的 神,我懇切地尋求你!我的心靈渴想你,我的肉身切慕你,像在乾旱疲乏無水之地。

O God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you;my soul thirsts for you;my flesh faints for you,as in a dry and weary land where there is no water.

2

我在聖所中這樣瞻仰你,為要見你的能力和榮耀。

So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary,beholding your power and glory.

3

因你的忠誠之愛比生命更好,我的嘴唇要頌讚你。

Because your steadfast love is better than life,my lips will praise you.

4

我一生都要這樣稱頌你;我要奉你的名舉手禱告。

So I will bless you as long as I live;in your name I will lift up my hands.

5

我的心好像飽享了豐富美食;我的口以歡樂的嘴唇讚美你。

My soul will be satisfied as with fat and rich food,and my mouth will praise you with joyful lips,

6

我在床上的時候想起你;在夜更的時候念誦你。

when I remember you upon my bed,and meditate on you in the watches of the night;

7

因為你是我的幫助;我要在你翅膀的蔭下歡呼。

for you have been my help,and in the shadow of your wings I will sing for joy.

8

我心緊緊跟隨你;你的右手扶持我。

My soul clings to you;your right hand upholds me.

9

但是他們,那些企圖殺害我的人,將下到地的深處。

But those who seek to destroy my lifeshall go down into the depths of the earth;

10

他們要死於刀劍;成為胡狼的食物。

they shall be given over to the power of the sword;they shall be a portion for jackals.

11

但是王,他要因 神而歡喜,所有指著他起誓的人都將誇耀,因為說謊之人的口要被封閉。

But the king shall rejoice in God;all who swear by him shall exult,for the mouths of liars will be stopped.

64
詩篇 64
Psalm 64

仇敵放冷箭, 神卻救助我

Hide Me from the Wicked

大衛的詩,交給詩班長。

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.

1

神啊,我哀歎的時候,求你垂聽我的聲音!求你保護我的性命,脫離仇敵的恐嚇!

Hear my voice, O God, in my complaint;preserve my life from dread of the enemy.

2

求你把我隱藏,使我脫離壞人的陰謀,脫離作惡之人的攪擾!

Hide me from the secret plots of the wicked,from the throng of evildoers,

3

他們把舌頭磨得像利劍;發出惡毒的言語像射箭。

who whet their tongues like swords,who aim bitter words like arrows,

4

要在隱密處射殺正直的人,突然放冷箭,毫不懼怕。

shooting from ambush at the blameless,shooting at him suddenly and without fear.

5

他們互相壯膽幹壞事,他們商議暗設羅網;他們說:“誰看得見它們呢?”

They hold fast to their evil purpose;they talk of laying snares secretly,thinking, “Who can see them?”

6

他們圖謀奸惡,說:“我們的計謀無懈可擊。”人的心思實在深不可測。

They search out injustice,saying, “We have accomplished a diligent search.”For the inward mind and heart of a man are deep!

7

但是, 神要用箭射他們,他們就會忽然受傷。

But God shoots his arrow at them;they are wounded suddenly.

8

他要使他們絆倒在自己的舌頭上;所有看見他們的人都會搖頭嗤笑。

They are brought to ruin, with their own tongues turned against them;all who see them will wag their heads.

9

人人都當敬畏,傳揚 神的作為,思想他的工作。

Then all mankind fears;they tell what God has brought aboutand ponder what he has done.

10

願義人因耶和華而歡喜,並且投靠他;願所有心裡正直的人,都因他而誇耀!

Let the righteous one rejoice in the LORDand take refuge in him!Let all the upright in heart exult!

65
詩篇 65
Psalm 65

靜默等候讚美 神

O God of Our Salvation

大衛的詩歌,交給詩班長。

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. A Song.

1

神啊,在錫安,人們靜默等候讚美你;所許的願要向你償還!

Praise is due to you, O God, in Zion,and to you shall vows be performed.

2

垂聽禱告的那一位啊,所有的人都要來到你這裡!

O you who hear prayer,to you shall all flesh come.

3

許多罪惡勝過我;然而我們的各種過犯,你都會赦免。

When iniquities prevail against me,you atone for our transgressions.

4

你所揀選、使他親近、住在你院中的人,真是有福!我們要因你的聖殿、因你殿的美福而心滿意足。

Blessed is the one you choose and bring near,to dwell in your courts!We shall be satisfied with the goodness of your house,the holiness of your temple!

5

拯救我們的 神啊,你以可畏的事和公義應允我們;你是所有地極和遠海之人的倚靠!

By awesome deeds you answer us with righteousness,O God of our salvation,the hope of all the ends of the earthand of the farthest seas;

6

你以力量安定群山,以大能束腰。

the one who by his strength established the mountains,being girded with might;

7

你平息海洋的響聲,波浪的澎湃,以及眾民的喧嚷。

who stills the roaring of the seas,the roaring of their waves,the tumult of the peoples,

8

住在地極的人,都因你的神蹟而敬畏;你使日出日落之地都歡呼。

so that those who dwell at the ends of the earth are in awe at your signs.You make the going out of the morning and the evening to shout for joy.

9

你眷顧大地,普降甘霖,使土地肥沃;神的引水道流水豐沛。你為人預備穀物,你就這樣預備了大地。

You visit the earth and water it;you greatly enrich it;the river of God is full of water;you provide their grain,for so you have prepared it.

10

你澆灌地的犁溝,潤平犁脊,降下雨露,使地鬆軟;你賜福給它的莊稼。

You water its furrows abundantly,settling its ridges,softening it with showers,and blessing its growth.

11

你以恩福為年歲的冠冕;你的路徑有滿溢的恩澤。

You crown the year with your bounty;your wagon tracks overflow with abundance.

12

荒野的草地得到滋潤;小山以歡樂束腰。

The pastures of the wilderness overflow,the hills gird themselves with joy,

13

牧場以羊群為衣,山谷蓋滿了穀物;他們都歡呼歌唱。

the meadows clothe themselves with flocks,the valleys deck themselves with grain,they shout and sing together for joy.

66
詩篇 66
Psalm 66

神向世人所做的事令人敬畏

How Awesome Are Your Deeds

To the choirmaster. A Song. A Psalm.

1

全地的居民啊,你們當向 神歡呼!

Shout for joy to God, all the earth;

2

應當歌頌他名的榮耀;把榮耀和讚美歸給他!

sing the glory of his name;give to him glorious praise!

3

你們應當對 神說:“你的作為多麼令人敬畏!因你的大能,仇敵向你投降。”

Say to God, “How awesome are your deeds!So great is your power that your enemies come cringing to you.

4

全地的居民要敬拜你;他們要歌頌你,歌頌你的名!(細拉)

All the earth worships youand sings praises to you;they sing praises to your name.” Selah

5

你們要來看 神的作為!他向世人所做的事令人敬畏。

Come and see what God has done:he is awesome in his deeds toward the children of man.

6

他把海變成乾地,眾人步行過河;我們要在那裡因他歡喜。

He turned the sea into dry land;they passed through the river on foot.There did we rejoice in him,

7

他以大能永遠掌權,他的眼睛鑒察萬國;叛逆的人不可妄自尊大。(細拉)

who rules by his might forever,whose eyes keep watch on the nations—let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah

8

萬民啊,你們應當稱頌我們的 神,讓讚美他的聲音傳揚!

Bless our God, O peoples;let the sound of his praise be heard,

9

他保存我們的性命;不叫我們的腳搖動。

who has kept our soul among the livingand has not let our feet slip.

10

神啊,你曾試驗我們;熬煉我們,如同熬煉銀子!

For you, O God, have tested us;you have tried us as silver is tried.

11

你使我們陷入羅網;把重擔放在我們的背上。

You brought us into the net;you laid a crushing burden on our backs;

12

你使人駕車輾過我們的頭;我們經過水火,你卻領我們進入恩福滿溢之地。

you let men ride over our heads;we went through fire and through water;yet you have brought us out to a place of abundance.

13

我要帶著燔祭進你的殿,向你還我的願,

I will come into your house with burnt offerings;I will perform my vows to you,

14

就是我在急難中,嘴唇所發,口中所許的願。

that which my lips utteredand my mouth promised when I was in trouble.

15

我要獻上肥畜作燔祭,連同公綿羊的馨香獻給你;我要獻上公牛和公山羊。(細拉)

I will offer to you burnt offerings of fattened animals,with the smoke of the sacrifice of rams;I will make an offering of bulls and goats. Selah

16

所有敬畏 神的人啊,你們都要來聽!我要述說他對我所成就的事。

Come and hear, all you who fear God,and I will tell what he has done for my soul.

17

我曾用口頌揚他;我的舌頭尊崇他。

I cried to him with my mouth,and high praise was on my tongue.

18

要是我心裡想著罪惡,主就不會垂聽。

If I had cherished iniquity in my heart,the Lord would not have listened.

19

然而, 神聽見了;他留心聽我禱告的聲音。

But truly God has listened;he has attended to the voice of my prayer.

20

神配受稱頌,他沒有拒絕我的禱告,也沒有從我撤回他的忠誠之愛。

Blessed be God,because he has not rejected my prayeror removed his steadfast love from me!

願 神恩待我們,賜福給我們!願他的面發光照耀我們!(細拉)

May God be gracious to us and bless usand make his face to shine upon us, Selah

2

好叫全地得知你的道路,萬國得知你的救恩。

that your way may be known on earth,your saving power among all nations.

3

神啊,願萬族讚美你!願萬族全都讚美你!

Let the peoples praise you, O God;let all the peoples praise you!

4

願眾民都快樂歡呼!因為你按正直治理萬族,並引導地上的眾民。(細拉)

Let the nations be glad and sing for joy,for you judge the peoples with equityand guide the nations upon earth. Selah

5

神啊,願萬族讚美你!願萬族全都讚美你!

詩篇 68
Psalm 68

得勝的凱歌

God Shall Scatter His Enemies

大衛的詩歌,交給詩班長。

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. A Song.

1

願 神起來!願他的仇敵潰散,願那些恨他的人逃跑躲避他!

God shall arise, his enemies shall be scattered;and those who hate him shall flee before him!

2

願你把他們趕散,好像煙被風吹散;願惡人在 神面前滅亡,好像蠟被火熔化。

As smoke is driven away, so you shall drive them away;as wax melts before fire,so the wicked shall perish before God!

3

但願義人歡喜快樂;在 神面前喜樂歡欣。

But the righteous shall be glad;they shall exult before God;they shall be jubilant with joy!

4

你們要向 神歌唱,歌頌他的名,高聲讚美駕雲者;他的名是耶和華,你們要在他面前歡呼!

Sing to God, sing praises to his name;lift up a song to him who rides through the deserts;his name is the LORD;exult before him!

5

神在他的聖居所,作孤兒的父,為寡婦申冤。

Father of the fatherless and protector of widowsis God in his holy habitation.

6

神使孤獨的人有家,領出被囚的人得歡樂;唯獨叛逆的人住乾旱之地。

God settles the solitary in a home;he leads out the prisoners to prosperity,but the rebellious dwell in a parched land.

7

神啊,當你領出你的子民,當你在荒地行進時,(細拉)

O God, when you went out before your people,when you marched through the wilderness, Selah

8

地震動,天落雨,是因為 神,西奈的這位,是因為 神,以色列的 神。

the earth quaked, the heavens poured down rain,before God, the One of Sinai,before God, the God of Israel.

9

神啊,你降下大雨,滋潤貧瘠的土地;

Rain in abundance, O God, you shed abroad;you restored your inheritance as it languished;

10

你的居所,他們安住其中。神啊,你用你的恩福,為困苦人預備一切!

your flock found a dwelling in it;in your goodness, O God, you provided for the needy.

11

主發出命令,傳報福音的婦女成了大軍。

The Lord gives the word;the women who announce the news are a great host:

12

領軍的列王逃跑了,逃跑了;家中守候的婦女分得戰利品。

“The kings of the armies—they flee, they flee!”The women at home divide the spoil—

13

你們躺臥在羊圈中,好像鴿子的翅膀鍍上白銀,羽翼鍍上黃金。

though you men lie among the sheepfolds—the wings of a dove covered with silver,its pinions with shimmering gold.

14

全能者趕散境內列王時,就像撒門山上飄大雪。

When the Almighty scatters kings there,let snow fall on Zalmon.

15

巴珊山是雄偉壯麗的山;巴珊山是多峰多嶺的山。

O mountain of God, mountain of Bashan;O many-peaked mountain, mountain of Bashan!

16

多峰多嶺的山啊,你們為甚麼敵視神所喜悅居住的山?耶和華要住在這山,直到永遠。

Why do you look with hatred, O many-peaked mountain,at the mount that God desired for his abode,yes, where the LORD will dwell forever?

17

神的車駕成千上萬;主在其中,好像在西奈聖所中。

The chariots of God are twice ten thousand,thousands upon thousands;the Lord is among them; Sinai is now in the sanctuary.

18

你升上高處,擄掠了俘虜,你在世人當中,甚至在叛逆的人當中,接受了種種禮物,好叫耶和華 神住在其中。

You ascended on high,leading a host of captives in your trainand receiving gifts among men,even among the rebellious, that the LORD God may dwell there.

19

主配受稱頌!他是拯救我們的 神,天天背負我們的重擔!(細拉)

Blessed be the Lord,who daily bears us up;God is our salvation. Selah

20

我們的 神是施行拯救的 神;人能脫離死亡,在於主耶和華;

Our God is a God of salvation,and to GOD, the Lord, belong deliverances from death.

21

但 神必重創仇敵的頭,就是常常犯罪之人的頭顱。

But God will strike the heads of his enemies,the hairy crown of him who walks in his guilty ways.

22

主說:“我要把他們從巴珊帶回,把他們從海的深處帶回;

The Lord said,“I will bring them back from Bashan,I will bring them back from the depths of the sea,

23

讓你在仇敵的血中洗自己的腳,讓你的狗有分用舌頭舔他們的血。”

that you may strike your feet in their blood,that the tongues of your dogs may have their portion from the foe.”

24

神啊,人人都看見你行進的隊伍,看見我的 神,我的王進入聖所!

Your procession is seen, O God,the procession of my God, my King, into the sanctuary—

25

歌唱的在前,奏樂的殿後,中間有擊鼓的童女。

the singers in front, the musicians last,between them virgins playing tambourines:

26

你們要在大會中稱頌 神;來自以色列源頭的人啊,你們要稱頌耶和華!

“Bless God in the great congregation,the LORD, O you who are of Israel's fountain!”

27

那裡有微小的便雅憫領導他們,有猶大眾首領,成群結隊;有西布倫的眾首領,有拿弗他利的眾首領。

There is Benjamin, the least of them, in the lead,the princes of Judah in their throng,the princes of Zebulun, the princes of Naphtali.

28

你的 神已命令賜給你能力;神啊,求你堅立你為我們做成的事!

Summon your power, O God,the power, O God, by which you have worked for us.

29

為了你在耶路撒冷的聖殿,列王要把禮物帶來獻給你。

Because of your temple at Jerusalemkings shall bear gifts to you.

30

求你斥責蘆葦中的野獸,斥責公牛群,及列邦中的青壯公牛,直到他們屈身進貢銀塊!求你趕散那些好戰的民族!

Rebuke the beasts that dwell among the reeds,the herd of bulls with the calves of the peoples.Trample underfoot those who lust after tribute;scatter the peoples who delight in war.

31

有使節從埃及前來;古實人急忙向 神伸出手來。

Nobles shall come from Egypt;Cush shall hasten to stretch out her hands to God.

32

地上的王國啊,你們要向 神歌唱,你們要歌頌主,(細拉)

O kingdoms of the earth, sing to God;sing praises to the Lord, Selah

33

歌頌那乘駕萬古天上之天的主!聽啊,他發出聲音,是強有力的聲音。

to him who rides in the heavens, the ancient heavens;behold, he sends out his voice, his mighty voice.

34

你們要承認 神的大能!他的威榮在以色列之上,他的能力在雲霄之中。

Ascribe power to God,whose majesty is over Israel,and whose power is in the skies.

35

神啊,你在你的聖所令人敬畏;以色列的 神賜力量權能給他的子民。神配得稱頌!

Awesome is God from his sanctuary;the God of Israel—he is the one who gives power and strength to hispeople.Blessed be God!

69
詩篇 69
Psalm 69

神的救恩將我安置在避難的高處

Save Me, O God

大衛的詩,交給詩班長,採用“百合花”的曲調。

To the choirmaster: according to Lilies. Of David.

1

神啊,求你拯救我!因為大水淹到我的頸項。

Save me, O God!For the waters have come up to my neck.

2

我陷入深深的泥潭,沒有立足之地;我進到水深之處,波濤淹沒了我。

I sink in deep mire,where there is no foothold;I have come into deep waters,and the flood sweeps over me.

3

我因呼求而疲乏,喉嚨發乾;我因仰望我的 神,雙眼衰竭。

I am weary with my crying out;my throat is parched.My eyes grow dimwith waiting for my God.

4

無故地恨我的人,比我的頭髮還多;無理與我為敵,想要除滅我的人,何等眾多。我沒有搶來的東西,他們竟要我償還。

More in number than the hairs of my headare those who hate me without cause;mighty are those who would destroy me,those who attack me with lies.What I did not stealmust I now restore?

5

神啊,我的愚昧,你自己已知道,我的過錯,不能向你隱藏!

O God, you know my folly;the wrongs I have done are not hidden from you.

6

主萬軍之耶和華啊,願那些等候你的人,不要因我而蒙羞!以色列的 神啊,願那些尋求你的人,不要因我而受辱!

Let not those who hope in you be put to shame through me,O Lord GOD of hosts;let not those who seek you be brought to dishonor through me,O God of Israel.

7

然而我是為你的緣故,忍受辱罵,滿臉羞辱。

For it is for your sake that I have borne reproach,that dishonor has covered my face.

8

我的兄弟都與我疏遠,我母親的兒子看我像外人。

I have become a stranger to my brothers,an alien to my mother's sons.

9

我為你殿的熱心把我吞噬;那些辱罵你之人的辱罵,都落在我身上。

For zeal for your house has consumed me,and the reproaches of those who reproach you have fallen on me.

10

我禁食哭泣,卻成為恥辱。

When I wept and humbled my soul with fasting,it became my reproach.

11

我披粗毛布;卻變成笑柄。

When I made sackcloth my clothing,I became a byword to them.

12

坐在城門口的人喃喃議論我;酒徒醉漢也唱歌嘲弄我。

I am the talk of those who sit in the gate,and the drunkards make songs about me.

13

而我,耶和華啊,在悅納的時候我向你禱告;神啊,求你按著你豐盛的忠誠之愛,憑著你信實的拯救應允我!

But as for me, my prayer is to you, O LORD.At an acceptable time, O God,in the abundance of your steadfast love answer me in your savingfaithfulness.

14

求你搭救我脫離淤泥,不叫我陷溺其中!願我得救脫離恨我的人,脫離水深之處!

Deliver mefrom sinking in the mire;let me be delivered from my enemiesand from the deep waters.

15

求你不容波濤淹沒我,不容深淵把我吞滅;不容深坑把我封頂!

Let not the flood sweep over me,or the deep swallow me up,or the pit close its mouth over me.

16

耶和華啊,求你應允我,因你的忠誠之愛實在美善;求你按著你豐盛的慈悲,轉過來眷顧我!

Answer me, O LORD, for your steadfast love is good;according to your abundant mercy, turn to me.

17

求你不要掩面不理你的僕人,因為我在急難中;求你快快應允我!

Hide not your face from your servant;for I am in distress; make haste to answer me.

18

求你親近我,把我贖回;求你因我仇敵的緣故救贖我!

Draw near to my soul, redeem me;ransom me because of my enemies!

19

我所受的辱罵、欺凌和羞辱,你自己都知道;我所有的敵人都在你面前。

You know my reproach,and my shame and my dishonor;my foes are all known to you.

20

辱罵使我心碎,我就絕望;我指望有人同情,卻沒有一個;我等候有人安慰,卻無法找到。

Reproaches have broken my heart,so that I am in despair.I looked for pity, but there was none,and for comforters, but I found none.

21

他們給我苦膽當食物,他們叫我喝醋來解渴。

They gave me poison for food,and for my thirst they gave me sour wine to drink.

22

願他們的宴席成為羅網,願他們的安全變成陷阱!

Let their own table before them become a snare;and when they are at peace, let it become a trap.

23

願他們的眼睛變得昏黑,甚麼也看不見;願你使他們的腰不停顫抖!

Let their eyes be darkened, so that they cannot see,and make their loins tremble continually.

24

求你把憤怒傾倒在他們身上;求你叫你的烈怒追上他們!

Pour out your indignation upon them,and let your burning anger overtake them.

25

願他們的住處變為荒場;願他們的帳篷無人居住!

May their camp be a desolation;let no one dwell in their tents.

26

因為你所擊打的人,他們越發迫害;你所打傷的人,他們更加談論他的痛苦。

For they persecute him whom you have struck down,and they recount the pain of those you have wounded.

27

願你在他們的罪上施罰;願他們不得被你稱為義!

Add to them punishment upon punishment;may they have no acquittal from you.

28

願他們從生命冊上被抹掉:不容他們與義人同列名冊!

Let them be blotted out of the book of the living;let them not be enrolled among the righteous.

29

而我,我是困苦憂傷的人;神啊,你的救恩將我安置在避難的高處!

But I am afflicted and in pain;let your salvation, O God, set me on high!

30

我要用詩歌讚美 神的名;我要以頌讚尊他為大。

I will praise the name of God with a song;I will magnify him with thanksgiving.

31

這就討耶和華的喜悅;勝過獻上牛,有角有蹄的公牛。

This will please the LORD more than an oxor a bull with horns and hoofs.

32

困苦人看見就喜樂;尋求 神的人啊,願你們的心恢復活力!

When the humble see it they will be glad;you who seek God, let your hearts revive.

33

因為耶和華垂聽窮人;不藐視他被囚的子民。

For the LORD hears the needyand does not despise his own people who are prisoners.

34

願天和地讚美他,願海和其中所有的動物都讚美他!

Let heaven and earth praise him,the seas and everything that moves in them.

35

因為 神要拯救錫安,建造猶大諸城;他們要住在那裡,得地作為產業。

For God will save Zionand build up the cities of Judah,and people shall dwell there and possess it;

36

他僕人們的後裔,要承受產業;那些愛慕他名的人,要住在其中。

the offspring of his servants shall inherit it,and those who love his name shall dwell in it.

70
詩篇 70
Psalm 70

神啊,求你快來搭救我!

O LORD, Do Not Delay

大衛的紀念詩,交給詩班長。

To the choirmaster. Of David, for the memorial offering.

1

神啊,求你快來搭救我!耶和華啊,求你快來幫助我!

Make haste, O God, to deliver me!O LORD, make haste to help me!

2

願那些企圖殺害我的人,都抱愧蒙羞!願那些喜悅我遭害的人,都退後受辱!

Let them be put to shame and confusionwho seek my life!Let them be turned back and brought to dishonorwho delight in my hurt!

3

願那些說“啊哈!啊哈!”的人,都因羞愧而轉身退後!

Let them turn back because of their shamewho say, “Aha, Aha!”

4

願所有尋求你的人,都因你歡喜快樂;願那些喜愛你救恩的人常說:“當尊 神為大!”

May all who seek yourejoice and be glad in you!May those who love your salvationsay evermore, “God is great!”

5

而我,我貧苦窮困,神啊,求你快來我這裡!你是我的幫助,我的拯救;耶和華啊,求你不要耽延!

But I am poor and needy;hasten to me, O God!You are my help and my deliverer;O LORD, do not delay!

71
詩篇 71
Psalm 71

我要述說耶和華獨有的公義

Forsake Me Not When My Strength Is Spent

1

耶和華啊,我投靠你,求你叫我永不蒙羞!

In you, O LORD, do I take refuge;let me never be put to shame!

2

求你按你的公義搭救我,解救我;求你側耳聽我,拯救我!

In your righteousness deliver me and rescue me;incline your ear to me, and save me!

3

求你做我的石山居所,讓我可以隨時來投靠!你已下令要拯救我,因為你是我的巖山,我的藏身處。

Be to me a rock of refuge,to which I may continually come;you have given the command to save me,for you are my rock and my fortress.

4

我的 神啊,求你救我脫離惡人的手;救我脫離不義和殘暴之人的掌控!

Rescue me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked,from the grasp of the unjust and cruel man.

5

因為你是我的盼望,主耶和華啊,我自幼以來所倚靠的就是你!

For you, O Lord, are my hope,my trust, O LORD, from my youth.

6

我從出母胎就倚靠你,使我出母腹的就是你,我要不住地讚美你。

Upon you I have leaned from before my birth;you are he who took me from my mother's womb.My praise is continually of you.

7

許多人以我為怪,但你是我堅固的避難所。

I have been as a portent to many,but you are my strong refuge.

8

我的口充滿對你的讚美,整天頌揚你的榮耀!

My mouth is filled with your praise,and with your glory all the day.

9

我年老的時候,求你不要拋棄我!我力量衰竭時,求你不要離棄我!

Do not cast me off in the time of old age;forsake me not when my strength is spent.

10

因為我的仇敵議論我,那些窺探要害我的人一同商議,

For my enemies speak concerning me;those who watch for my life consult together

11

說:“ 神已經離棄他;你們追趕他,逮住他吧!因為沒有人搭救。”

and say, “God has forsaken him;pursue and seize him,for there is none to deliver him.”

12

神啊,求你不要遠離我!我的 神啊,求你快來幫助我!

O God, be not far from me;O my God, make haste to help me!

13

願敵對我的人都羞愧滅亡!願謀害我的人都蒙羞受辱!

May my accusers be put to shame and consumed;with scorn and disgrace may they be coveredwho seek my hurt.

14

而我,我不住地仰望你;並要更加讚美你。

But I will hope continuallyand will praise you yet more and more.

15

我的口要述說你的公義,整天傳講你的救恩,儘管我不知其數。

My mouth will tell of your righteous acts,of your deeds of salvation all the day,for their number is past my knowledge.

16

我要來述說主耶和華的大能;我要述說你獨有的公義。

With the mighty deeds of the Lord GOD I will come;I will remind them of your righteousness, yours alone.

17

神啊,自我年幼,你就教導我;直到如今,我仍傳揚你奇妙的作為!

O God, from my youth you have taught me,and I still proclaim your wondrous deeds.

18

神啊,直到我年老髮白的時候,求你仍然不要離棄我;等我把你的能力傳給下一代,將你的能力傳講給後世的人。

So even to old age and gray hairs,O God, do not forsake me,until I proclaim your might to another generation,your power to all those to come.

19

神啊,你的公義達到高天;神啊,你行過大事,誰能與你相比?

Your righteousness, O God,reaches the high heavens.You who have done great things,O God, who is like you?

20

你曾使我經歷患難災禍;但你將使我再活過來,叫我從地的深處上來。

You who have made me see many troubles and calamitieswill revive me again;from the depths of the earthyou will bring me up again.

21

求你增加我的尊榮,並轉過身來安慰我!

You will increase my greatnessand comfort me again.

22

我的 神啊,我要鼓瑟讚美你的信實!以色列的至聖者啊,我要彈琴歌頌你!

I will also praise you with the harpfor your faithfulness, O my God;I will sing praises to you with the lyre,O Holy One of Israel.

23

我歌頌你的時候,我的嘴唇要歡呼;我的性命,就是你所救贖的,也要歡呼。

My lips will shout for joy,when I sing praises to you;my soul also, which you have redeemed.

24

我的舌頭要整天述說你的公義;因為那些謀害我的人,都蒙羞受辱了。

And my tongue will talk of your righteous help all the day long,for they have been put to shame and disappointedwho sought to do me hurt.

72
詩篇 72
Psalm 72

為理想君王的祈禱

Give the King Your Justice

所羅門的詩。

Of Solomon.

1

神啊,求你將你的公正賜給王;將你的公義賜給王的兒子!

Give the king your justice, O God,and your righteousness to the royal son!

2

願他按公義審判你的子民;按公正審斷你的貧苦人!

May he judge your people with righteousness,and your poor with justice!

3

願群山帶給人民和平,山丘帶給人民公義!

Let the mountains bear prosperity for the people,and the hills, in righteousness!

4

願他為民中的貧苦人主持公道,拯救窮人的兒女,壓碎欺凌他們的人!

May he defend the cause of the poor of the people,give deliverance to the children of the needy,and crush the oppressor!

5

願他與日月共存,直到萬代!

May they fear you while the sun endures,and as long as the moon, throughout all generations!

6

願他降臨,像雨降在已割的草地上,像甘霖滋潤大地!

May he be like rain that falls on the mown grass,like showers that water the earth!

7

願他在位之日,義人興旺,大享平安,如同月亮長存!

In his days may the righteous flourish,and peace abound, till the moon be no more!

8

願他執掌權柄,從這海直到那海,從幼發拉底河直到地極!

May he have dominion from sea to sea,and from the River to the ends of the earth!

9

願住荒野的人在他面前屈身下拜;願他的仇敵都舔塵土!

May desert tribes bow down before him,and his enemies lick the dust!

10

願塔施和海島的列王進貢;示巴和西巴的列王獻禮物!

May the kings of Tarshish and of the coastlandsrender him tribute;may the kings of Sheba and Sebabring gifts!

11

願列王向他下拜;願萬國都服侍他!

May all kings fall down before him,all nations serve him!

12

因為窮人呼救的時候,他就搭救;無人幫助的貧苦人,他也搭救。

For he delivers the needy when he calls,the poor and him who has no helper.

13

他顧惜貧民和窮人;拯救窮人的性命。

He has pity on the weak and the needy,and saves the lives of the needy.

14

他救贖他們脫離欺凌和暴力;他們的血在他眼中視為寶貴。

From oppression and violence he redeems their life,and precious is their blood in his sight.

15

願他長久活著,願人把示巴的金子獻給他!願人不住為他禱告,整天為他祝福!

Long may he live;may gold of Sheba be given to him!May prayer be made for him continually,and blessings invoked for him all the day!

16

願地上穀物豐饒,山頂果實搖曳,像黎巴嫩的樹林!願城裡的人興旺,如地上的青草!

May there be abundance of grain in the land;on the tops of the mountains may it wave;may its fruit be like Lebanon;and may people blossom in the citieslike the grass of the field!

17

願他的名存到永遠,願他的名如太陽恆久!願人藉著他說自己蒙福,願萬國都稱他為有福!

May his name endure forever,his fame continue as long as the sun!May people be blessed in him,all nations call him blessed!

18

耶和華 神,就是以色列的 神,配受稱頌!唯獨他施行奇妙的作為。

Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel,who alone does wondrous things.

19

他榮耀的名配受稱頌,直到永遠;願他的榮耀充滿全地!阿們!阿們!

Blessed be his glorious name forever;may the whole earth be filled with his glory! Amen and Amen!

20

耶西的兒子大衛的祈禱完畢。

The prayers of David, the son of Jesse, are ended.

詩篇卷三BOOK THREE
73
詩篇 73
Psalm 73

內心清潔之人的心路歷程

Book Three

God Is My Strength and Portion Forever

God Is My Strength and Portion Forever

亞薩的詩。

A Psalm of Asaph.

1

神實在善待以色列,善待那些內心清潔的人!

Truly God is good to Israel,to those who are pure in heart.

2

而我,我的雙腳幾乎絆倒,我的腳步險些散亂。

But as for me, my feet had almost stumbled,my steps had nearly slipped.

3

這是因為,我見惡人享平安,就嫉妒狂傲的人。

For I was envious of the arrogantwhen I saw the prosperity of the wicked.

4

他們死的時候沒有痛苦,他們的身體也肥壯。

For they have no pangs until death;their bodies are fat and sleek.

5

他們不像一般人受苦,也不像普通人遭遇災害。

They are not in trouble as others are;they are not stricken like the rest of mankind.

6

所以,驕傲像鏈子戴在他們頸項上,凶暴像衣裳穿在他們的身上。

Therefore pride is their necklace;violence covers them as a garment.

7

他們的罪行從麻木的心而出,他們心裡的妄想氾濫。

Their eyes swell out through fatness;their hearts overflow with follies.

8

他們懷著惡意譏笑人;態度高傲出言欺壓人。

They scoff and speak with malice;loftily they threaten oppression.

9

他們的口攻擊上天,他們的舌橫行全地。

They set their mouths against the heavens,and their tongue struts through the earth.

10

因此, 神的子民回歸這裡,滿滿的水被他們飲盡。

Therefore his people turn back to them,and find no fault in them.

11

他們說:“ 神怎會知道呢?至高者懂甚麼呢?”

And they say, “How can God know?Is there knowledge in the Most High?”

12

看,這就是惡人!他們常享安逸,財富卻增加。

Behold, these are the wicked;always at ease, they increase in riches.

13

我保持我心純潔,洗手表明清白,實在徒然!

All in vain have I kept my heart cleanand washed my hands in innocence.

14

因為,我整天受傷害,每早晨被懲罰。

For all the day long I have been strickenand rebuked every morning.

15

如果我說“我要這樣講”,我就會對你的兒女背信了。

If I had said, “I will speak thus,”I would have betrayed the generation of your children.

16

我想要明白這事,這對我來說真是苦惱;

But when I thought how to understand this,it seemed to me a wearisome task,

17

直到我進入 神的聖所,才明白他們的結局。

until I went into the sanctuary of God;then I discerned their end.

18

你實在把他們安置在滑地,使他們倒下滅亡。

Truly you set them in slippery places;you make them fall to ruin.

19

他們轉眼之間變得多麼荒涼,他們完全被驚恐除滅。

How they are destroyed in a moment,swept away utterly by terrors!

20

主啊,人睡醒了怎樣看夢,你醒來也怎樣輕看他們的影像!

Like a dream when one awakes,O Lord, when you rouse yourself, you despise them as phantoms.

21

的確,我心中酸苦,肺腑刺痛。

When my soul was embittered,when I was pricked in heart,

22

我愚昧無知,在你面前就像牲畜一般。

I was brutish and ignorant;I was like a beast toward you.

23

但是我一直跟隨你,你緊握著我的右手。

Nevertheless, I am continually with you;you hold my right hand.

24

你用你的訓言來引導我,最後還要接我到榮耀裡去。

You guide me with your counsel,and afterward you will receive me to glory.

25

除你以外,在天上我還有誰呢?除你以外,在地上我也無所愛慕。

Whom have I in heaven but you?And there is nothing on earth that I desire besides you.

26

我的肉身和我的心腸衰殘,但 神是我心中的力量,是我的產業,直到永遠。

My flesh and my heart may fail,but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.

27

的確,遠離你的人都將滅亡!所有離棄你、不忠貞於你的人,你都滅絕!

For behold, those who are far from you shall perish;you put an end to everyone who is unfaithful to you.

28

而我,親近 神於我有益。我以主耶和華為我的避難所,為要述說你一切的作為。

But for me it is good to be near God;I have made the Lord GOD my refuge,that I may tell of all your works.

74
詩篇 74
Psalm 74

自古以來, 神就是我的王

Arise, O God, Defend Your Cause

亞薩的訓誨詩。

A Maskil of Asaph.

1

神啊,你為甚麼永遠丟棄我們呢?為甚麼向你牧場上的羊發火冒煙呢?

O God, why do you cast us off forever?Why does your anger smoke against the sheep of your pasture?

2

求你記住你在古時買贖的群體,就是你贖回來作你產業的支派,求你記住你所居住的這錫安山!

Remember your congregation, which you have purchased of old,which you have redeemed to be the tribe of your heritage!Remember Mount Zion, where you have dwelt.

3

仇敵已破壞了聖所中的一切,求你邁開步伐去那長久的廢墟。

Direct your steps to the perpetual ruins;the enemy has destroyed everything in the sanctuary!

4

仇敵在我們覲見你的地方吼叫,豎起自己的旗幟為標記,

Your foes have roared in the midst of your meeting place;they set up their own signs for signs.

5

看起來就像在樹叢中揮斧砍伐的人;

They were like those who swing axesin a forest of trees.

6

他們把聖所的雕飾,全都用斧頭錘子搗毀。

And all its carved woodthey broke down with hatchets and hammers.

7

他們放火燒毀你的聖所,夷為平地,褻瀆了你名下的居所。

They set your sanctuary on fire;they profaned the dwelling place of your name,bringing it down to the ground.

8

他們心裡說:“我們要徹底壓垮他們!”他們燒毀地上所有覲見 神的地方。

They said to themselves, “We will utterly subdue them”;they burned all the meeting places of God in the land.

9

我們看不到自己的標幟,也不再有先知;我們中間也無人知道這災禍要到幾時。

We do not see our signs;there is no longer any prophet,and there is none among us who knows how long.

10

神啊,敵人辱罵,要到幾時呢?仇敵藐視你的名,要到永遠嗎?

How long, O God, is the foe to scoff?Is the enemy to revile your name forever?

11

你為甚麼收回你的手,你的右手?求你從懷中抽出手來,毀滅他們!

Why do you hold back your hand, your right hand?Take it from the fold of your garment and destroy them!

12

自古以來, 神就是我的王,他在地上施行拯救。

Yet God my King is from of old,working salvation in the midst of the earth.

13

是你以能力把海分開,你打碎水中海蛇的頭。

You divided the sea by your might;you broke the heads of the sea monsters on the waters.

14

是你砸碎海怪利維坦的頭,給住荒野的人作食物。

You crushed the heads of Leviathan;you gave him as food for the creatures of the wilderness.

15

是你裂開泉源和溪流,是你使長流不息的江河乾涸。

You split open springs and brooks;you dried up ever-flowing streams.

16

白晝屬你,黑夜也屬你,是你布置光體和太陽。

Yours is the day, yours also the night;you have established the heavenly lights and the sun.

17

是你立定地上所有的疆界;夏天和冬天,是你所制定。

You have fixed all the boundaries of the earth;you have made summer and winter.

18

耶和華啊,仇敵辱罵你,愚妄的人藐視你的名,求你追究這事!

Remember this, O LORD, how the enemy scoffs,and a foolish people reviles your name.

19

不要把你斑鳩的性命交給野獸,不要永遠忘記你困苦人的性命!

Do not deliver the soul of your dove to the wild beasts;do not forget the life of your poor forever.

20

求你顧念你所立的約!因為地上黑暗之處凶暴充斥。

Have regard for the covenant,for the dark places of the land are full of the habitations of violence.

21

不要叫受欺壓的人蒙羞而回,願貧苦窮困的人讚美你的名!

Let not the downtrodden turn back in shame;let the poor and needy praise your name.

22

神啊,求你起來為自己辯護!求你追究愚妄的人整天辱罵你!

Arise, O God, defend your cause;remember how the foolish scoff at you all the day!

23

那些敵擋你之人的喧嚷不斷上騰,求你不要忘記你敵人的聲音!

Do not forget the clamor of your foes,the uproar of those who rise against you, which goes up continually!

75
詩篇 75
Psalm 75

惡人降卑,義人高升

God Will Judge with Equity

亞薩的詩歌,交給詩班長,採用“休要毀壞”的曲調。

To the choirmaster: according to Do Not Destroy. A Psalm of Asaph. A Song.

1

神啊,我們讚美你!我們讚美,因你的名就在近處;人都述說你奇妙的作為。

We give thanks to you, O God;we give thanks, for your name is near.We recount your wondrous deeds.

2

你說:“我已經選定了日期,我要親自按公正施行審判。

“At the set time that I appointI will judge with equity.

3

當地和其上所有的居民都震動時,是我使地的支柱穩固。”(細拉)

When the earth totters, and all its inhabitants,it is I who keep steady its pillars. Selah

我對狂傲的人說:“不要狂傲!”對惡人說:“不要顯耀你們的力量!”

I say to the boastful, ‘Do not boast,’and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horn;

5

不要高高顯耀你們的力量,不要挺起頸項說狂言。

do not lift up your horn on high,or speak with haughty neck.’”

6

因為,顯耀不是從東、從西,也不是從荒野而來。

For not from the east or from the westand not from the wilderness comes lifting up,

7

因為, 神要施行審判;他使這人降卑,使那人升高。

but it is God who executes judgment,putting down one and lifting up another.

8

因為,杯在耶和華手中,杯中滿了起泡沫的濁酒;他倒出來,地上所有的惡人都要連渣喝下。

For in the hand of the LORD there is a cupwith foaming wine, well mixed,and he pours out from it,and all the wicked of the earthshall drain it down to the dregs.

9

而我,卻要宣揚,直到永遠!我要歌頌雅各的 神!

But I will declare it forever;I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.

10

我要砍掉惡人所有的力量,而義人的力量,將得顯耀。

All the horns of the wicked I will cut off,but the horns of the righteous shall be lifted up.

詩篇 76
Psalm 76

神的威榮,無人能敵

Who Can Stand Before You?

亞薩的詩歌,交給詩班長,用弦樂器伴奏。

To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments. A Psalm of Asaph. A Song.

1

在猶大, 神是人所共知;在以色列,他的名被尊為大。

In Judah God is known;his name is great in Israel.

2

他的居所在撒冷,他藏身之所在錫安。

His abode has been established in Salem,his dwelling place in Zion.

3

他在那裡折斷弓上的火箭、盾牌、刀劍和戰爭的兵器。(細拉)

There he broke the flashing arrows,the shield, the sword, and the weapons of war. Selah

4

你滿有光華榮美,勝過永恆的群山。

Glorious are you, more majesticthan the mountains of prey.

5

心中勇敢的人都被搶奪,他們長眠不起,所有大能的勇士都無力還手。

The stouthearted were stripped of their spoil;they sank into sleep;all the men of warwere unable to use their hands.

6

雅各的 神啊,你的斥責一發,戰車和馬匹都沉沉入睡!

At your rebuke, O God of Jacob,both rider and horse lay stunned.

7

你,唯獨你令人敬畏,你的怒氣一發,誰還能在你面前站立得住?

But you, you are to be feared!Who can stand before youwhen once your anger is roused?

8

你從天上宣告判決,連地都懼怕而靜默。

From the heavens you uttered judgment;the earth feared and was still,

9

神要起來施行審判,拯救地上所有困苦的人。(細拉)

when God arose to establish judgment,to save all the humble of the earth. Selah

10

因為,人的怒火,使你得稱讚,人的餘怒,你卻要約束。

Surely the wrath of man shall praise you;the remnant of wrath you will put on like a belt.

11

你們許願,當向耶和華你們的 神還願!在他周邊的人,都當獻禮物給那可敬畏的主!

Make your vows to the LORD your God and perform them;let all around him bring giftsto him who is to be feared,

12

他要挫折眾首領的銳氣,令地上的列王敬畏。

who cuts off the spirit of princes,who is to be feared by the kings of the earth.

77
詩篇 77
Psalm 77

在患難之日尋求主,記住他的作為

In the Day of Trouble I Seek the Lord

亞薩的詩,交給詩班長,採用“耶杜頓”的曲調。

To the choirmaster: according to Jeduthun. A Psalm of Asaph.

1

我要向 神發聲呼求;我向 神發聲,他必留心聽我。

I cry aloud to God,aloud to God, and he will hear me.

2

我在患難之日尋求主,在夜間不住舉手禱告,我的心卻得不著安慰。

In the day of my trouble I seek the Lord;in the night my hand is stretched out without wearying;my soul refuses to be comforted.

3

我想到 神,就哀歎悲訴,心靈憔悴。(細拉)

When I remember God, I moan;when I meditate, my spirit faints. Selah

4

你使我不能合眼,我煩躁不安,不能說話。

You hold my eyelids open;I am so troubled that I cannot speak.

5

我追想古時之日,上古之年。

I consider the days of old,the years long ago.

6

我在夜間想起我的歌曲,我心悲訴,我靈探索:

I said, “Let me remember my song in the night;let me meditate in my heart.”Then my spirit made a diligent search:

7

“難道主要永遠棄絕我,不再施恩嗎?

“Will the Lord spurn forever,and never again be favorable?

8

難道他的忠誠之愛永遠消失,他的應許永久廢除嗎?

Has his steadfast love forever ceased?Are his promises at an end for all time?

9

難道 神忘記施恩,因發怒就止住他的慈悲嗎?”(細拉)

Has God forgotten to be gracious?Has he in anger shut up his compassion?” Selah

10

因此我說:“我深感苦惱,至高者的右手已經改變了。”

Then I said, “I will appeal to this,to the years of the right hand of the Most High.”

11

我要提說耶和華的工作,我要記住你古時奇妙的作為。

I will remember the deeds of the LORD;yes, I will remember your wonders of old.

12

我要默誦你一切的工作,你的作為,我要述說。

I will ponder all your work,and meditate on your mighty deeds.

13

神啊,你的道路聖潔,有哪一位神像我們的 神這樣偉大?

Your way, O God, is holy.What god is great like our God?

14

你是施行奇妙作為的 神,在萬民中彰顯你的能力。

You are the God who works wonders;you have made known your might among the peoples.

15

你用手臂救贖你的子民,就是雅各和約瑟的子孫。(細拉)

You with your arm redeemed your people,the children of Jacob and Joseph. Selah

16

神啊,眾水看見你,眾水看見你就顫抖,深淵也都戰慄!

When the waters saw you, O God,when the waters saw you, they were afraid;indeed, the deep trembled.

17

烏雲倒出水來,天空發出響聲,你的箭射向四方。

The clouds poured out water;the skies gave forth thunder;your arrows flashed on every side.

18

你的雷聲在旋風中,閃電照亮世界,大地顫抖震動。

The crash of your thunder was in the whirlwind;your lightnings lighted up the world;the earth trembled and shook.

19

你的道路在海洋中,你的路徑在大水中,你的腳蹤無人知道。

Your way was through the sea,your path through the great waters;yet your footprints were unseen.

20

你曾藉著摩西和亞倫的手,帶領你的人民,如同帶領羊群。

You led your people like a flockby the hand of Moses and Aaron.

78
詩篇 78
Psalm 78

子民不忠, 神仍引導

Tell the Coming Generation

亞薩的訓誨詩。

A Maskil of Asaph.

1

我的民啊,你們要張開耳朵聽我的教誨!側耳聽我口中的言語!

Give ear, O my people, to my teaching;incline your ears to the words of my mouth!

2

我要開口用比喻,吐露古時的謎語,

I will open my mouth in a parable;I will utter dark sayings from of old,

3

是我們所聽見、所知道,我們的列祖告訴我們的。

things that we have heard and known,that our fathers have told us.

4

我們不要向子孫隱瞞這些事,而要將耶和華可頌讚的事、他的能力和他奇妙的作為,述說給後來的世代聽。

We will not hide them from their children,but tell to the coming generationthe glorious deeds of the LORD, and his might,and the wonders that he has done.

5

他在雅各中設立法規,在以色列中制定律法;他吩咐我們的祖宗要傳給子孫,

He established a testimony in Jacoband appointed a law in Israel,which he commanded our fathersto teach to their children,

6

使後來的世代,將要生的人可以知道;他們也要起來,告訴他們的子子孫孫,

that the next generation might know them,the children yet unborn,and arise and tell them to their children,

7

好叫他們倚靠 神,不忘記 神的作為,並且遵守他的誡命;

so that they should set their hope in Godand not forget the works of God,but keep his commandments;

8

不要像他們的列祖,是頑梗叛逆的群體,是心不堅定的群體,對 神不忠的群體。

and that they should not be like their fathers,a stubborn and rebellious generation,a generation whose heart was not steadfast,whose spirit was not faithful to God.

9

以法蓮的子孫有弓箭武裝,在爭戰的日子卻臨陣脫逃;

The Ephraimites, armed with the bow,turned back on the day of battle.

10

他們不守 神的約,又拒絕遵行他的律法,

They did not keep God's covenant,but refused to walk according to his law.

11

更忘記他所成就的事,以及向他們彰顯的奇妙作為。

They forgot his worksand the wonders that he had shown them.

12

他在埃及地、在瑣安田野、在他們列祖面前施行奇妙的作為。

In the sight of their fathers he performed wondersin the land of Egypt, in the fields of Zoan.

13

他把海分開,領他們過去,叫水立起像堤壩。

He divided the sea and let them pass through it,and made the waters stand like a heap.

14

他白日用雲,整夜用火光,帶領他們。

In the daytime he led them with a cloud,and all the night with a fiery light.

15

他在荒野使磐石裂開,給他們水喝,多得像深淵。

He split rocks in the wildernessand gave them drink abundantly as from the deep.

16

他使泉水從磐石湧出,使水像江河向下溢流。

He made streams come out of the rockand caused waters to flow down like rivers.

17

他們卻再次犯罪干犯他,在乾旱之地違背至高者。

Yet they sinned still more against him,rebelling against the Most High in the desert.

18

他們心裡試探 神,隨著欲望求食物;

They tested God in their heartby demanding the food they craved.

19

並且出言攻擊 神,說:“ 神能在荒野擺宴席嗎?

They spoke against God, saying,“Can God spread a table in the wilderness?

20

雖然他曾擊打磐石,使水湧出,如急流漫溢;但他也能賜糧食嗎?能為他的子民預備肉嗎?”

He struck the rock so that water gushed outand streams overflowed.Can he also give breador provide meat for his people?”

21

因此,耶和華聽見就發怒,有烈火在雅各燃起,有怒氣對以色列發作。

Therefore, when the LORD heard, he was full of wrath;a fire was kindled against Jacob;his anger rose against Israel,

22

因為,他們不相信 神,不倚靠他的拯救。

because they did not believe in Godand did not trust his saving power.

23

他卻吩咐雲霄,打開天空的門,

Yet he commanded the skies aboveand opened the doors of heaven,

24

降嗎哪像雨給他們吃,把天上的食糧賜給他們。

and he rained down on them manna to eatand gave them the grain of heaven.

25

各人吃眾天使的食物;他賜糧食,使他們飽足。

Man ate of the bread of the angels;he sent them food in abundance.

26

他在天上刮起東風,運用能力引來南風。

He caused the east wind to blow in the heavens,and by his power he led out the south wind;

27

他降肉如雨,給他們,多如塵土;又降飛鳥給他們,多如海沙,

he rained meat on them like dust,winged birds like the sand of the seas;

28

落在他們的營中,他們居所的周邊。

he let them fall in the midst of their camp,all around their dwellings.

29

他們吃了,非常飽足,他滿足了他們的欲望。

And they ate and were well filled,for he gave them what they craved.

30

他們貪得無厭,食物還在他們口中,

But before they had satisfied their craving,while the food was still in their mouths,

31

神的怒氣就向他們發作,殺了他們中間肥壯的人,使以色列的年輕人屈服。

the anger of God rose against them,and he killed the strongest of themand laid low the young men of Israel.

32

雖然如此,他們仍舊犯罪,不相信他奇妙的作為。

In spite of all this, they still sinned;despite his wonders, they did not believe.

33

神使他們的日子在虛空中消逝,他們的年歲在驚恐中完結。

So he made their days vanish like a breath,and their years in terror.

34

他擊殺他們的時候,他們才尋求他;他們回轉過來,急切地尋找 神。

When he killed them, they sought him;they repented and sought God earnestly.

35

他們追念 神是他們的石山,至高的 神是他們的救贖主。

They remembered that God was their rock,the Most High God their redeemer.

36

但他們張口欺騙他,鼓舌對他說謊。

But they flattered him with their mouths;they lied to him with their tongues.

37

他們的心對他不堅定,不忠於和他所立的約;

Their heart was not steadfast toward him;they were not faithful to his covenant.

38

但他以慈悲為懷,赦免罪責,沒有滅絕他們,他多次抑制怒氣,沒有發盡他的怒火。

Yet he, being compassionate,atoned for their iniquityand did not destroy them;he restrained his anger oftenand did not stir up all his wrath.

39

他想到他們不過是血肉之軀,像一陣風,一去不返。

He remembered that they were but flesh,a wind that passes and comes not again.

40

多少次他們在荒野叛逆他,在荒地令他傷心。

How often they rebelled against him in the wildernessand grieved him in the desert!

41

他們一再試探 神,使以色列的至聖者痛苦。

They tested God again and againand provoked the Holy One of Israel.

42

他們不追念他大能的手,贖他們脫離敵人的日子,

They did not remember his poweror the day when he redeemed them from the foe,

43

他怎樣在埃及顯神蹟,在瑣安田野施展奇能。

when he performed his signs in Egyptand his marvels in the fields of Zoan.

44

他把他們的江河變成血,使他們不能喝溪流的水。

He turned their rivers to blood,so that they could not drink of their streams.

45

他使蒼蠅成群,落在他們中間,吞噬他們,又叫青蛙毀滅他們。

He sent among them swarms of flies, which devoured them,and frogs, which destroyed them.

46

他把他們的農產交給蚱蜢,把他們辛勞的收穫交給蝗蟲。

He gave their crops to the destroying locustand the fruit of their labor to the locust.

47

他用冰雹摧毀他們的葡萄樹,又用洪水毀滅他們的西克莫無花果樹。

He destroyed their vines with hailand their sycamores with frost.

48

他把他們的牛群交給冰雹,把他們的羊群交給閃電。

He gave over their cattle to the hailand their flocks to thunderbolts.

49

他使猛烈的怒氣、憤怒、惱恨和災禍,好像一群降災的使者,臨到他們中間。

He let loose on them his burning anger,wrath, indignation, and distress,a company of destroying angels.

50

他為自己的怒氣修平了路徑,不惜使他們死亡,把他們的性命交給瘟疫。

He made a path for his anger;he did not spare them from death,but gave their lives over to the plague.

51

他擊殺埃及一切頭生的,就是含的帳篷裡強壯時所生的頭胎。

He struck down every firstborn in Egypt,the firstfruits of their strength in the tents of Ham.

52

他卻領出自己的民像領羊群,在荒野引導他們像引導群畜。

Then he led out his people like sheepand guided them in the wilderness like a flock.

53

穩妥地帶領他們,使他們一無所懼;海卻淹沒他們的仇敵。

He led them in safety, so that they were not afraid,but the sea overwhelmed their enemies.

54

他帶他們來到他聖地的邊界,到他右手所得的這山地。

And he brought them to his holy land,to the mountain which his right hand had won.

55

他在他們面前趕出外族人,用繩量地分給他們作為產業,使以色列眾支派住在自己的帳篷裡。

He drove out nations before them;he apportioned them for a possessionand settled the tribes of Israel in their tents.

56

但是,他們仍然試探、叛逆至高的 神,不遵守他的法規。

Yet they tested and rebelled against the Most High Godand did not keep his testimonies,

57

他們背信不忠,像他們的列祖;他們改變了,如同不可靠的弓。

but turned away and acted treacherously like their fathers;they twisted like a deceitful bow.

58

因他們的丘壇,惹動他的怒氣;因他們雕刻的偶像,激起他痛恨不忠。

For they provoked him to anger with their high places;they moved him to jealousy with their idols.

59

神聽見就發怒,完全棄絕以色列。

When God heard, he was full of wrath,and he utterly rejected Israel.

60

他離棄示羅的聖幕,就是他在人間居住的帳幕。

He forsook his dwelling at Shiloh,the tent where he dwelt among mankind,

61

他任憑他的約櫃被擄走,任憑他的榮耀落入敵手;

and delivered his power to captivity,his glory to the hand of the foe.

62

將他的民交給刀劍,向他的產業發烈怒。

He gave his people over to the swordand vented his wrath on his heritage.

63

他們的青年被火吞噬,他們的處女也無婚禮。

Fire devoured their young men,and their young women had no marriage song.

64

他們的祭司喪身刀下,他們的寡婦卻不哀哭。

Their priests fell by the sword,and their widows made no lamentation.

65

那時主要像人睡醒,像勇士因飲酒歡呼。

Then the Lord awoke as from sleep,like a strong man shouting because of wine.

66

他擊退他的眾仇敵,給他們永遠的羞辱。

And he put his adversaries to rout;he put them to everlasting shame.

67

他棄絕約瑟的帳篷,不揀選以法蓮支派;

He rejected the tent of Joseph;he did not choose the tribe of Ephraim,

68

卻揀選猶大支派,他所愛的錫安山。

but he chose the tribe of Judah,Mount Zion, which he loves.

69

他建造他的聖所如同高峰,又像他所奠定永存的大地。

He built his sanctuary like the high heavens,like the earth, which he has founded forever.

70

又揀選他的僕人大衛,把他從羊圈中召出來,

He chose David his servantand took him from the sheepfolds;

71

叫他不再跟從那些母羊,卻要牧養他的子民雅各和他的產業以色列。

from following the nursing ewes he brought himto shepherd Jacob his people,Israel his inheritance.

72

他以正直的心牧養他們,用手中的技巧帶領他們。

With upright heart he shepherded themand guided them with his skillful hand.

79
詩篇 79
Psalm 79

列國入侵,求 神報復

How Long, O LORD?

亞薩的詩。

A Psalm of Asaph.

1

神啊,外族人侵入你的產業,他們污穢你的聖殿,使耶路撒冷變成廢墟!

O God, the nations have come into your inheritance;they have defiled your holy temple;they have laid Jerusalem in ruins.

2

他們把你僕人們的屍體,給天空的飛鳥啄食;把那些對你忠誠的人的肉,給地上的野獸吞噬;

They have given the bodies of your servantsto the birds of the heavens for food,the flesh of your faithful to the beasts of the earth.

3

倒出他們的血如水,在耶路撒冷周邊,無人安葬。

They have poured out their blood like waterall around Jerusalem,and there was no one to bury them.

4

我們蒙受鄰國的羞辱,成為周邊人民譏刺的笑柄。

We have become a taunt to our neighbors,mocked and derided by those around us.

5

耶和華啊,這要到幾時呢?你對不忠的痛恨要永遠像火焚燒嗎?

How long, O LORD? Will you be angry forever?Will your jealousy burn like fire?

6

願你將你的怒火,傾倒在不認識你的外族人和不呼求你名的王國!

Pour out your anger on the nationsthat do not know you,and on the kingdomsthat do not call upon your name!

7

因為他們吞滅雅各,蹂躪他的住處。

For they have devoured Jacoband laid waste his habitation.

8

求你不要追究我們祖先的罪,願你的慈悲快點臨到我們,因為我們極其卑微。

Do not remember against us our former iniquities;let your compassion come speedily to meet us,for we are brought very low.

9

拯救我們的 神啊,求你因你名的榮耀幫助我們!求你為你名的緣故搭救我們,赦免我們的罪!

Help us, O God of our salvation,for the glory of your name;deliver us, and atone for our sins,for your name's sake!

10

為甚麼容外族人說“他們的 神在哪裡”呢?願你在我們眼前使外族人知道,你為你僕人們報血仇!

Why should the nations say,“Where is their God?”Let the avenging of the outpoured blood of your servantsbe known among the nations before our eyes!

11

願被囚之人的歎息達到你面前,願你手臂的大能留給必死的人!

Let the groans of the prisoners come before you;according to your great power, preserve those doomed to die!

12

主啊,願你將我們鄰邦加給你的羞辱,加七倍報復在他們身上!

Return sevenfold into the lap of our neighborsthe taunts with which they have taunted you, O Lord!

13

而我們,卻是你的民,你牧場上的羊,我們要讚美你,直到永遠;要述說你可頌讚的事,直到萬代!

But we your people, the sheep of your pasture,will give thanks to you forever;from generation to generation we will recount your praise.

80
詩篇 80
Psalm 80

求耶和華萬軍之 神復興子民

Restore Us, O God

亞薩的詩,交給詩班長,採用“為證的百合花”的曲調。

To the choirmaster: according to Lilies. A Testimony. Of Asaph, a Psalm.

1

以色列的牧人啊,你引導約瑟好像引導羊群,求你留心聽!坐在兩個基路伯之上的主啊,求你發出光輝!

Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel,you who lead Joseph like a flock!You who are enthroned upon the cherubim, shine forth.

2

在以法蓮、便雅憫和瑪拿西面前,求你施展大能,前來拯救我們!

Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh,stir up your mightand come to save us!

3

神啊,求你復興我們!讓你的面發光,我們就可以得救!

Restore us, O God;let your face shine, that we may be saved!

4

耶和華萬軍之 神啊,你因你子民的禱告發怒,要到幾時呢?

O LORD God of hosts,how long will you be angry with your people's prayers?

5

你給他們眼淚當食物吃,又使他們喝大杯的淚水。

You have fed them with the bread of tearsand given them tears to drink in full measure.

6

你使鄰邦因我們紛爭,我們的仇敵譏笑我們。

You make us an object of contention for our neighbors,and our enemies laugh among themselves.

7

萬軍之 神啊,求你復興我們!讓你的面發光,我們就可以得救!

Restore us, O God of hosts;let your face shine, that we may be saved!

8

你從埃及拔出一棵葡萄樹,趕出外族人,把這樹栽上。

You brought a vine out of Egypt;you drove out the nations and planted it.

9

你在樹的前面清理出地方,樹就深深扎根,充滿全地。

You cleared the ground for it;it took deep root and filled the land.

10

樹的蔭影遮滿群山,樹枝遮蔽高大的雪松。

The mountains were covered with its shade,the mighty cedars with its branches.

11

它伸展枝條,直到地中海,伸展嫩枝,直到幼發拉底河。

It sent out its branches to the seaand its shoots to the River.

12

你為甚麼拆毀這樹的圍牆,任憑所有過路的人採摘呢?

Why then have you broken down its walls,so that all who pass along the way pluck its fruit?

13

林中的野豬蹂躪它,田野的走獸吃掉它。

The boar from the forest ravages it,and all that move in the field feed on it.

14

萬軍之 神啊,求你回心轉意!求你從天上垂看鑒察,眷顧這葡萄樹!

Turn again, O God of hosts!Look down from heaven, and see;have regard for this vine,

15

眷顧你右手所栽種的枝幹和你為自己所培育的幼苗!

the stock that your right hand planted,and for the son whom you made strong for yourself.

16

這樹已經被火燒、被砍下,他們因你臉上的斥責而滅亡。

They have burned it with fire; they have cut it down;may they perish at the rebuke of your face!

17

願你的手扶持你右邊的人,就是你為自己所培育的人。

But let your hand be on the man of your right hand,the son of man whom you have made strong for yourself!

18

這樣,我們就不會退後離開你;求你使我們存活,我們就頌揚你的名!

Then we shall not turn back from you;give us life, and we will call upon your name!

19

耶和華萬軍之 神啊,求你復興我們!讓你的面發光,我們就可以得救!

Restore us, O LORD God of hosts!Let your face shine, that we may be saved!

81
詩篇 81
Psalm 81

子民當聽從 神的勸誡

Oh, That My People Would Listen to Me

亞薩的詩,交給詩班長,採用“迦特”的樂器伴奏。

To the choirmaster: according to The Gittith. Of Asaph.

1

你們要向 神—我們的力量歡呼,要向雅各的 神高聲歡唱!

Sing aloud to God our strength;shout for joy to the God of Jacob!

2

要奏起樂曲,搖起鈴鼓,彈奏悅耳的琴瑟!

Raise a song; sound the tambourine,the sweet lyre with the harp.

3

要在新月和滿月—在我們的節期吹響號角!

Blow the trumpet at the new moon,at the full moon, on our feast day.

4

因為這是給以色列的規定,是雅各之 神的律例。

For it is a statute for Israel,a rule of the God of Jacob.

5

他去攻擊埃及地的時候,在約瑟中立此法規,我在那裡聽見我不懂的語言。

He made it a decree in Josephwhen he went out over the land of Egypt.I hear a language I had not known:

6

神說:“我除去他肩頭的重擔,讓他的雙手放下筐子。

“I relieved your shoulder of the burden;your hands were freed from the basket.

7

你在急難中呼求,我就搭救你,我在打雷的隱密處回答你,我藉著控訴地的水試驗你。(細拉)

In distress you called, and I delivered you;I answered you in the secret place of thunder;I tested you at the waters of Meribah. Selah

8

我的子民啊,你要聽!我要勸誡你;以色列啊,但願你肯聽從我!

Hear, O my people, while I admonish you!O Israel, if you would but listen to me!

9

在你當中不可有異族的神明,你不可拜外族人的神。

There shall be no strange god among you;you shall not bow down to a foreign god.

10

我是耶和華你的 神,曾領你從埃及地上來。張大你的口吧,我就給你充滿。

I am the LORD your God,who brought you up out of the land of Egypt.Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it.

11

我的子民卻不聽我的話,以色列不肯聽從我。

“But my people did not listen to my voice;Israel would not submit to me.

12

我就任憑他們心裡頑固,隨他們自己的計謀而行。

So I gave them over to their stubborn hearts,to follow their own counsels.

13

但願我的子民聽從我,以色列遵行我的道路,

Oh, that my people would listen to me,that Israel would walk in my ways!

14

我就迅速制伏他們的仇敵,轉過手來攻擊他們的敵人。

I would soon subdue their enemiesand turn my hand against their foes.

15

憎恨耶和華的人會向他投降,他們的刑期將永無止境。

Those who hate the LORD would cringe toward him,and their fate would last forever.

16

他會用上好的麥子給他們吃,我要用出自石山的蜜滿足你。”

But he would feed you with the finest of the wheat,and with honey from the rock I would satisfy you.”

82
詩篇 82
Psalm 82

求 神起來,審判這地

Rescue the Weak and Needy

亞薩的詩。

A Psalm of Asaph.

1

神站在有能者的群體中,在眾神中施行審判。

God has taken his place in the divine council;in the midst of the gods he holds judgment:

2

說:“你們不按公義審判,卻偏袒惡人,要到幾時呢?”(細拉)

“How long will you judge unjustlyand show partiality to the wicked? Selah

3

你們當為貧民和孤兒申冤,為貧苦人和窮人伸張正義。

Give justice to the weak and the fatherless;maintain the right of the afflicted and the destitute.

4

救護貧民和窮人,搭救他們脫離惡人之手。

Rescue the weak and the needy;deliver them from the hand of the wicked.”

5

他們卻不知道,也不明白。他們在黑暗中走來走去,地的所有根基都動搖了。

They have neither knowledge nor understanding,they walk about in darkness;all the foundations of the earth are shaken.

6

我自己曾說:“你們是神,你們全都是至高者的兒子。”

I said, “You are gods,sons of the Most High, all of you;

7

然而,你們都要死亡,與世人無異;你們都要倒下,像首領一樣。

nevertheless, like men you shall die,and fall like any prince.”

8

神啊,求你起來,審判這地!因為萬國都是你的產業。

Arise, O God, judge the earth;for you shall inherit all the nations!

83
詩篇 83
Psalm 83

求 神消滅周圍敵國

O God, Do Not Keep Silence

亞薩的詩歌。

A Song. A Psalm of Asaph.

1

神啊,求你不要沉默!神啊,求你不要閉口,不要默不吭聲!

O God, do not keep silence;do not hold your peace or be still, O God!

2

要知道,你的仇敵喧嚷,恨你的人趾高氣昂!

For behold, your enemies make an uproar;those who hate you have raised their heads.

3

他們精心密謀,要陷害你的子民;他們彼此商議,要害你所寶貴的人。

They lay crafty plans against your people;they consult together against your treasured ones.

4

他們說:“來吧!我們消滅他們,使他們亡國,以色列的名不再被人記得。”

They say, “Come, let us wipe them out as a nation;let the name of Israel be remembered no more!”

5

他們同心商議,彼此結盟來對抗你;

For they conspire with one accord;against you they make a covenant—

6

伊東的帳篷和以實瑪利人,摩押和夏甲人,

the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites,Moab and the Hagrites,

7

迦巴勒、亞捫和亞瑪力人,非利士和推羅的居民,

Gebal and Ammon and Amalek,Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre;

8

亞述與他們聯合,要助羅得子孫一臂之力。(細拉)

Asshur also has joined them;they are the strong arm of the children of Lot. Selah

9

求你對待他們如同對待米甸人,像在基順溪谷對待西西拉和耶賓!

Do to them as you did to Midian,as to Sisera and Jabin at the river Kishon,

10

他們在多珥泉鎮被消滅,成了地上的糞肥。

who were destroyed at En-dor,who became dung for the ground.

11

求你使他們的權貴都像俄立和西伊伯,叫他們所有的首領都像西巴和撒慕拿。

Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb,all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,

12

他們說:“我們要把 神的牧場據為己有!”

who said, “Let us take possession for ourselvesof the pastures of God.”

13

我的 神啊,求你使他們像塵土飛揚,像風捲起的碎稈!

O my God, make them like whirling dust,like chaff before the wind.

14

烈火怎樣焚燒森林,火焰怎樣燃燒群山;

As fire consumes the forest,as the flame sets the mountains ablaze,

15

照樣,求你用狂風追趕他們,用暴雨驚嚇他們。

so may you pursue them with your tempestand terrify them with your hurricane!

16

耶和華啊,求你使他們滿面羞愧,好叫他們尋求你的名!

Fill their faces with shame,that they may seek your name, O LORD.

17

願他們永遠羞愧驚惶,願他們蒙羞滅亡!

Let them be put to shame and dismayed forever;let them perish in disgrace,

18

使他們知道你:唯獨你名為耶和華,統管全地的至高者!

that they may know that you alone,whose name is the LORD,are the Most High over all the earth.

84
詩篇 84
Psalm 84

渴想耶和華的殿

My Soul Longs for the Courts of the LORD

可拉後裔的詩,交給詩班長,採用“迦特”的曲調。

To the choirmaster: according to The Gittith. A Psalm of the Sons of Korah.

1

萬軍之耶和華啊,你的居所多麼可愛!

How lovely is your dwelling place,O LORD of hosts!

2

我竭盡心力渴想耶和華的院子,我的心、我的身,向永活的 神歡呼。

My soul longs, yes, faintsfor the courts of the LORD;my heart and flesh sing for joyto the living God.

3

萬軍之耶和華,我的王、我的 神啊,在你的那些壇附近,雀鳥找到了家,燕子為自己找到安置幼雛的巢。

Even the sparrow finds a home,and the swallow a nest for herself,where she may lay her young,at your altars, O LORD of hosts,my King and my God.

4

住在你殿中的人,真是有福!他們不斷地讚美你。(細拉)

Blessed are those who dwell in your house,ever singing your praise! Selah

5

靠你得到力量、心中嚮往錫安大道的人,真是有福!

Blessed are those whose strength is in you,in whose heart are the highways to Zion.

6

他們經過巴卡谷,使這谷變為泉源之地;並有初冬雨之福蓋滿這谷。

As they go through the Valley of Bacathey make it a place of springs;the early rain also covers it with pools.

7

他們行走,力上加力,各人到錫安朝見 神。

They go from strength to strength;each one appears before God in Zion.

8

耶和華萬軍之 神啊,求你聽我的禱告!雅各的 神啊,求你張開耳朵!(細拉)

O LORD God of hosts, hear my prayer;give ear, O God of Jacob! Selah

9

神啊,求你看顧我們的君王,觀看你受膏者的面!

Behold our shield, O God;look on the face of your anointed!

10

在你的院子一天,勝過在別處千日;我寧可在我 神的殿中看門,也不願住在惡人的帳篷裡。

For a day in your courts is betterthan a thousand elsewhere.I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my Godthan dwell in the tents of wickedness.

11

因為,耶和華 神是太陽,是盾牌,耶和華要賜下恩典和榮耀;他沒有留下一樣福祉,不給那些行為正直的人。

For the LORD God is a sun and shield;the LORD bestows favor and honor.No good thing does he withholdfrom those who walk uprightly.

12

萬軍之耶和華啊,倚靠你的人,真是有福!

O LORD of hosts,blessed is the one who trusts in you!

85
詩篇 85
Psalm 85

求 神使我們復興

Revive Us Again

可拉後裔的詩,交給詩班長。

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of the Sons of Korah.

1

耶和華啊,你向你的地施恩,使雅各復興!

LORD, you were favorable to your land;you restored the fortunes of Jacob.

2

你已赦免你子民的罪責,寬恕他們一切的罪!(細拉)

You forgave the iniquity of your people;you covered all their sin. Selah

3

你已收回你一切的憤怒,使你猛烈的怒氣轉消!

You withdrew all your wrath;you turned from your hot anger.

4

拯救我們的 神啊,求你復興我們,別再惱怒我們!

Restore us again, O God of our salvation,and put away your indignation toward us!

5

你要向我們發怒到永遠嗎?你要長久懷怒直到萬代嗎?

Will you be angry with us forever?Will you prolong your anger to all generations?

6

你一定會再救活我們,使你的子民因你而歡喜!

Will you not revive us again,that your people may rejoice in you?

7

耶和華啊,求你使我們經歷你的忠誠之愛,又將你的救恩賜給我們!

Show us your steadfast love, O LORD,and grant us your salvation.

8

我要聽 神—耶和華所要說的話,因為他應許賜平安給他的子民,給對他忠誠的人;他們切莫轉向愚昧!

Let me hear what God the LORD will speak,for he will speak peace to his people, to his saints;but let them not turn back to folly.

9

的確,他的救恩臨近敬畏他的人,好叫榮耀住在我們的地上。

Surely his salvation is near to those who fear him,that glory may dwell in our land.

10

忠誠之愛和信實彼此相遇,公義和平安相互親吻。

Steadfast love and faithfulness meet;righteousness and peace kiss each other.

11

信實從地裡生出,公義從天上俯視。

Faithfulness springs up from the ground,and righteousness looks down from the sky.

12

的確,耶和華將賜下福祉,我們的地會出農產。

Yes, the LORD will give what is good,and our land will yield its increase.

13

公義要行走在他前面,為他的腳步預備道路。

Righteousness will go before himand make his footsteps a way.

86
詩篇 86
Psalm 86

求主拯救的祈禱

Great Is Your Steadfast Love

大衛的祈禱。

A Prayer of David.

1

耶和華啊,求你留心聽我,應允我!因為我貧苦窮困。

Incline your ear, O LORD, and answer me,for I am poor and needy.

2

求你守護我的性命,因為我是忠誠的人;求你拯救你的僕人,因為我倚靠你;你是我的 神!

Preserve my life, for I am godly;save your servant, who trusts in you—you are my God.

3

主啊,求你恩待我!因為我整天呼求你。

Be gracious to me, O Lord,for to you do I cry all the day.

4

主啊,求你使你的僕人心裡歡喜!因為我的心仰望你。

Gladden the soul of your servant,for to you, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.

5

主啊,你良善又樂意寬恕人;所有向你呼求的人,你都以豐盛的忠誠之愛待他們!

For you, O Lord, are good and forgiving,abounding in steadfast love to all who call upon you.

6

耶和華啊,求你聆聽我的祈禱,垂聽我懇求的聲音!

Give ear, O LORD, to my prayer;listen to my plea for grace.

7

我在患難之日呼求你,因為你會應允我。

In the day of my trouble I call upon you,for you answer me.

8

主啊,眾神之中沒一個可與你相比,你的作為也無與倫比!

There is none like you among the gods, O Lord,nor are there any works like yours.

9

主啊,你所造的萬國都將來到,在你面前下拜,他們將榮耀你的名!

All the nations you have made shall comeand worship before you, O Lord,and shall glorify your name.

10

因為你真偉大,施行奇妙的作為;唯獨你是 神。

For you are great and do wondrous things;you alone are God.

11

耶和華啊,求你將你的道路指教我,使我行在你的真理中,專心敬畏你的名!

Teach me your way, O LORD,that I may walk in your truth;unite my heart to fear your name.

12

主,我的 神啊,我要滿心讚美你,我要榮耀你的名,直到永遠,

I give thanks to you, O Lord my God, with my whole heart,and I will glorify your name forever.

13

因為你對我的忠誠之愛浩大,你搭救我脫離陰間的深處!

For great is your steadfast love toward me;you have delivered my soul from the depths of Sheol.

14

神啊,狂妄的人起來攻擊我,一群暴徒企圖殺害我,他們不把你放在眼裡。

O God, insolent men have risen up against me;a band of ruthless men seeks my life,and they do not set you before them.

15

主啊,你是有憐憫、有恩典的 神,不輕易發怒,有豐盛的忠誠之愛和信實。

But you, O Lord, are a God merciful and gracious,slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness.

16

求你轉向我,恩待我!將你的力量賜給你的僕人,拯救你婢女的兒子!

Turn to me and be gracious to me;give your strength to your servant,and save the son of your maidservant.

17

求你向我顯出善待我的憑據,叫那些恨我的人看見就蒙羞!因為你是耶和華,你幫助我,安慰我。

Show me a sign of your favor,that those who hate me may see and be put to shamebecause you, LORD, have helped me and comforted me.

詩篇 87
Psalm 87

至高者將親自堅立錫安

Glorious Things of You Are Spoken

可拉後裔的詩歌。

A Psalm of the Sons of Korah. A Song.

1

耶和華所立的根基在聖山上。

On the holy mount stands the city he founded;

2

他愛錫安的眾城門,超過雅各所有的住處。

the LORD loves the gates of Zionmore than all the dwelling places of Jacob.

3

神的城啊,人所說榮耀的事就是指著你說的!(細拉)

Glorious things of you are spoken,O city of God. Selah

4

對認識我的眾人,我要提到海怪拉哈伯和巴比倫人;要知道,非利士、推羅和古實人,個個生在那裡!

Among those who know me I mention Rahab and Babylon;behold, Philistia and Tyre, with Cush —“This one was born there,” they say.

5

至於錫安,人會說:“人人都在她那裡出生。”至高者將親自堅立她!

And of Zion it shall be said,“This one and that one were born in her”;for the Most High himself will establish her.

6

當耶和華登記萬民的時候,他要記下:“這人生在那裡!”(細拉)

The LORD records as he registers the peoples,“This one was born there.” Selah

7

歌者、舞者都要說:“我的泉源都在你裡面!”

Singers and dancers alike say,“All my springs are in you.”

88
詩篇 88
Psalm 88

將亡之人的祈禱

I Cry Out Day and Night Before You

可拉後裔的詩歌,就是以斯拉人希幔的訓誨詩,交給詩班長,採用“麻哈拉利暗俄”的曲調。

A Song. A Psalm of the Sons of Korah. To the choirmaster: according to Mahalath Leannoth. A Maskil of Heman the Ezrahite.

1

耶和華,拯救我的 神啊,白天,我呼求,夜裡,我在你面前呼求!

O LORD, God of my salvation;I cry out day and night before you.

2

願我的祈禱達到你面前,求你留心聽我的呼求!

Let my prayer come before you;incline your ear to my cry!

3

因為,我飽經憂患,我的性命臨近陰間。

For my soul is full of troubles,and my life draws near to Sheol.

4

我算和下墓穴的人同列;像是有氣無力之人。

I am counted among those who go down to the pit;I am a man who has no strength,

5

我被棄在死人當中,我像被殺之人躺在墳墓裡,你不再記得他們,他們也被你除滅。

like one set loose among the dead,like the slain that lie in the grave,like those whom you remember no more,for they are cut off from your hand.

6

你把我放在最深的坑中、在黑暗之地、在極深之處。

You have put me in the depths of the pit,in the regions dark and deep.

7

你的怒火重壓我身,使所有波浪困住我。(細拉)

Your wrath lies heavy upon me,and you overwhelm me with all your waves. Selah

8

你叫我的知己遠離我,又讓我為他們所憎惡;我被拘禁,不能逃脫。

You have caused my companions to shun me;you have made me a horror to them.I am shut in so that I cannot escape;

9

我因困苦而視力衰弱;耶和華啊,我天天向你呼求,展開雙手向你祈禱!

my eye grows dim through sorrow.Every day I call upon you, O LORD;I spread out my hands to you.

10

難道你會為死人施行奇妙的作為嗎?陰魂會起來讚美你嗎?(細拉)

Do you work wonders for the dead?Do the departed rise up to praise you? Selah

11

有誰在墳墓中述說你的忠誠之愛?有誰在滅亡之處述說你的信實?

Is your steadfast love declared in the grave,or your faithfulness in Abaddon?

12

你奇妙的作為在幽暗之處豈能被人曉得?你的公義在遺忘之地豈會被人知道?

Are your wonders known in the darkness,or your righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?

13

而我,耶和華啊,我要向你呼救;早晨,我以祈禱迎接你!

But I, O LORD, cry to you;in the morning my prayer comes before you.

14

耶和華啊,你為何棄絕我?為何掩面不理我?

O LORD, why do you cast my soul away?Why do you hide your face from me?

15

我自幼受苦,幾乎喪命;我受你驚嚇,手足無措。

Afflicted and close to death from my youth up,I suffer your terrors; I am helpless.

16

你的烈怒把我淹沒,你的驚嚇把我除滅。

Your wrath has swept over me;your dreadful assaults destroy me.

17

像水一樣整天環繞我,一起圍困我。

They surround me like a flood all day long;they close in on me together.

18

你使我的良朋密友遠離我,哎,我的知己……那黑暗之地……

You have caused my beloved and my friend to shun me;my companions have become darkness.

89
詩篇 89
Psalm 89

大衛之約的根基、危機與轉機

I Will Sing of the Steadfast Love of the LORD

以斯拉人以探的訓誨詩。

A Maskil of Ethan the Ezrahite.

1

我要永遠歌唱耶和華的忠誠之愛,世世代代用口傳揚你的信實。

I will sing of the steadfast love of the LORD, forever;with my mouth I will make known your faithfulness to all generations.

2

因為我說:“你的忠誠之愛將建立到永遠,你的信實要堅立在天上。”

For I said, “Steadfast love will be built up forever;in the heavens you will establish your faithfulness.”

3

“我與我所揀選的人立約,我向我的僕人大衛起誓。

You have said, “I have made a covenant with my chosen one;I have sworn to David my servant:

4

我將堅立你的後裔,直到永遠;我要鞏固你的王位,直到萬代。”(細拉)

‘I will establish your offspring forever,and build your throne for all generations.’” Selah

5

耶和華啊,天要頌讚你奇妙的作為;在聖者的會中,要頌讚你的信實!

Let the heavens praise your wonders, O LORD,your faithfulness in the assembly of the holy ones!

6

因為,在雲霄中誰能與耶和華相比呢?在 神的眾子中誰像耶和華呢?

For who in the skies can be compared to the LORD?Who among the heavenly beings is like the LORD,

7

他大有威嚴,在眾聖者的會中;他大而可畏,超過所有圍繞者。

a God greatly to be feared in the council of the holy ones,and awesome above all who are around him?

8

耶和華萬軍之 神啊,誰能與你相比?大能者耶和華啊,你的信實圍繞你!

O LORD God of hosts,who is mighty as you are, O LORD,with your faithfulness all around you?

9

是你管轄海的狂濤;波浪翻騰,是你使它平靜。

You rule the raging of the sea;when its waves rise, you still them.

10

是你打碎海怪拉哈伯,使牠像被殺的人;你用你大能的手臂,打散仇敵。

You crushed Rahab like a carcass;you scattered your enemies with your mighty arm.

11

天屬你,地也屬你;世界和其中所充滿的,都由你親自建立。

The heavens are yours; the earth also is yours;the world and all that is in it, you have founded them.

12

南北由你親自創造,塔泊和黑門都因你的名歡呼。

The north and the south, you have created them;Tabor and Hermon joyously praise your name.

13

你有大能的手臂,你的手強而有力,你的右手高舉。

You have a mighty arm;strong is your hand, high your right hand.

14

公義和公正是你寶座的根基,忠誠之愛與信實迎接你的面。

Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne;steadfast love and faithfulness go before you.

15

懂得向你歡呼的那民,真是有福!耶和華啊,他們在你聖容的光中行走!

Blessed are the people who know the festal shout,who walk, O LORD, in the light of your face,

16

他們因你的名整天歡樂,因你的公義而被高舉。

who exult in your name all the dayand in your righteousness are exalted.

17

因為,你是他們能力的榮耀;因你的喜悅,我們力量高強。

For you are the glory of their strength;by your favor our horn is exalted.

18

因為,我們的盾牌屬於耶和華,我們的王屬於以色列的至聖者。

For our shield belongs to the LORD,our king to the Holy One of Israel.

19

那時,你藉著異象曉諭那些對你忠誠的人,說:“我賜下幫助給一位勇士,我從民中興起一位青年。

Of old you spoke in a vision to your godly one, and said:“I have granted help to one who is mighty;I have exalted one chosen from the people.

20

我找到我的僕人大衛,用我的聖膏油膏抹他。

I have found David, my servant;with my holy oil I have anointed him,

21

我的手將堅定地扶持他,我的手臂要使他剛強。

so that my hand shall be established with him;my arm also shall strengthen him.

22

仇敵不能欺騙他,奸徒不能苦害他。

The enemy shall not outwit him;the wicked shall not humble him.

23

我要在他面前擊碎他的敵人,我要擊殺那些恨他的人。

I will crush his foes before himand strike down those who hate him.

24

我的信實和忠誠之愛要與他同在,因我的名,他力量高強。

My faithfulness and my steadfast love shall be with him,and in my name shall his horn be exalted.

25

我要使他的左手伸到大海,使他的右手伸到江河。

I will set his hand on the seaand his right hand on the rivers.

26

他將稱呼我說:‘你是我的父、我的 神,是拯救我的石山。’

He shall cry to me, ‘You are my Father,my God, and the Rock of my salvation.’

27

而我自己要立他為長子,為地上列王的至高者。

And I will make him the firstborn,the highest of the kings of the earth.

28

我要為他持守我的忠誠之愛,直到永遠;我與他所立的約,堅定不移。

My steadfast love I will keep for him forever,and my covenant will stand firm for him.

29

我要使他的後裔,存到永遠,使他的王位,如天之久。

I will establish his offspring foreverand his throne as the days of the heavens.

30

如果他的子孫離棄我的律法,不遵行我的律例;

If his children forsake my lawand do not walk according to my rules,

31

如果他們違背我的規定,不遵守我的誡命;

if they violate my statutesand do not keep my commandments,

32

我就要用杖懲罰他們的過犯,用鞭責罰他們的罪行;

then I will punish their transgression with the rodand their iniquity with stripes,

33

但是我不會從他撤回我的忠誠之愛,也不廢棄我的信實;

but I will not remove from him my steadfast loveor be false to my faithfulness.

34

我不會違背我的約,也不改變我嘴唇所出的話。

I will not violate my covenantor alter the word that went forth from my lips.

35

我曾憑著自己的聖潔起誓,我絕不向大衛說謊。

Once for all I have sworn by my holiness;I will not lie to David.

36

他的後裔將存到永遠,他的王位在我面前,要像太陽長存;

His offspring shall endure forever,his throne as long as the sun before me.

37

又像月亮永遠堅立,像天上的見證般信實。”(細拉)

Like the moon it shall be established forever,a faithful witness in the skies.” Selah

38

然而你,卻棄絕你的受膏者,惱怒棄絕他。

But now you have cast off and rejected;you are full of wrath against your anointed.

39

你廢棄與你僕人所立的約,把他的冠冕踐踏於地。

You have renounced the covenant with your servant;you have defiled his crown in the dust.

40

你拆毀他所有的圍牆,把他的堅城變為廢墟。

You have breached all his walls;you have laid his strongholds in ruins.

41

所有路過的人都搶奪他;他蒙受鄰國的羞辱。

All who pass by plunder him;he has become the scorn of his neighbors.

42

你高舉他敵人的右手,你叫他所有仇敵歡喜。

You have exalted the right hand of his foes;you have made all his enemies rejoice.

43

你使他的刀劍捲刃,使他在戰爭中落敗。

You have also turned back the edge of his sword,and you have not made him stand in battle.

44

你止息他的光輝,把他的寶座推翻。

You have made his splendor to ceaseand cast his throne to the ground.

45

你減少他青春的日子,又使他蒙羞。(細拉)

You have cut short the days of his youth;you have covered him with shame. Selah

46

耶和華啊,這要到幾時呢?你要永遠隱藏自己嗎?你的烈怒要像火焚燒嗎?

How long, O LORD? Will you hide yourself forever?How long will your wrath burn like fire?

47

求你顧念我的一生多麼短暫,你所創造的世人是多麼虛幻。

Remember how short my time is!For what vanity you have created all the children of man!

48

有誰能長活,不見死亡,從陰間的掌控中逃命呢?(細拉)

What man can live and never see death?Who can deliver his soul from the power of Sheol? Selah

49

主啊,你從前憑你的信實向大衛起誓,要施行的忠誠之愛在哪裡呢?

Lord, where is your steadfast love of old,which by your faithfulness you swore to David?

50

主啊,求你記住你僕人所受的羞辱,記住我怎樣在懷裡承受萬民的羞辱!

Remember, O Lord, how your servants are mocked,and how I bear in my heart the insults of all the many nations,

51

耶和華啊,你的仇敵用這樣的羞辱,步步羞辱你的受膏者!

with which your enemies mock, O LORD,with which they mock the footsteps of your anointed.

52

耶和華配受稱頌,直到永遠!阿們!阿們!

Blessed be the LORD forever! Amen and Amen.

From Everlasting to Everlasting

From Everlasting to Everlasting

A Prayer of Moses, the man of God.

1

主啊,世世代代你都是我們的居所!

Lord, you have been our dwelling placein all generations.

2

群山尚未生出,地與世界你尚未造成,你就是 神,從永遠到永遠。

Before the mountains were brought forth,or ever you had formed the earth and the world,from everlasting to everlasting you are God.

3

你使人回歸塵土;你說:“世人啊,你們要回歸!”

You return man to dustand say, “Return, O children of man!”

4

在你看來,千年如已逝的昨天,又像夜間的一更。

For a thousand years in your sightare but as yesterday when it is past,or as a watch in the night.

5

在他們睡中,你像洪水把他們沖走;他們像早晨生長的草。

You sweep them away as with a flood; they are like a dream,like grass that is renewed in the morning:

6

早晨發芽生長,晚上凋萎枯乾。

in the morning it flourishes and is renewed;in the evening it fades and withers.

7

的確,我們因你的怒氣而消滅,因你的怒火而驚恐。

For we are brought to an end by your anger;by your wrath we are dismayed.

8

你把我們的罪惡擺在你眼前,將我們隱祕的罪擺在你臉光中。

You have set our iniquities before you,our secret sins in the light of your presence.

9

我們一生的日子都在你震怒中消逝;就像一聲歎息,我們耗盡了自己的年歲。

For all our days pass away under your wrath;we bring our years to an end like a sigh.

10

我們一生的年日是七十歲,如果強壯,可到八十歲;但其中所誇耀的不過是勞苦愁煩,轉眼即逝,我們就如飛而去。

The years of our life are seventy,or even by reason of strength eighty;yet their span is but toil and trouble;they are soon gone, and we fly away.

11

誰曉得你怒氣的威力?誰按著你該得的敬畏,曉得你的憤怒呢?

Who considers the power of your anger,and your wrath according to the fear of you?

12

求你教導我們數算自己的日子,好使我們得到智慧的心!

So teach us to number our daysthat we may get a heart of wisdom.

13

耶和華啊,還要多久呢?求你回心轉意,憐恤你的僕人們!

Return, O LORD! How long?Have pity on your servants!

14

求你讓我們清早就飽嘗你的忠誠之愛,使我們一生一世歡呼喜樂!

Satisfy us in the morning with your steadfast love,that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.

15

你使我們受苦和遭難的年日有多久,求你使我們喜樂的日子也有多久!

Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us,and for as many years as we have seen evil.

16

願你的作為向你的僕人們彰顯,願你的威榮向他們的子孫顯明!

Let your work be shown to your servants,and your glorious power to their children.

17

願主我們 神的恩慈臨到我們!願你使我們的工作成功;願你使我們的工作順利!

Let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us,and establish the work of our hands upon us;yes, establish the work of our hands!

91
詩篇 91
Psalm 91

住在至高者的隱密處

My Refuge and My Fortress

1

人住在至高者的隱密處,就是住在全能者的蔭下。

He who dwells in the shelter of the Most Highwill abide in the shadow of the Almighty.

2

我要論到耶和華:“他是我的避難所、我的藏身處、我的 神、我倚靠他。”

I will say to the LORD, “My refuge and my fortress,my God, in whom I trust.”

3

因為他要搭救你脫離捕鳥人的羅網,脫離毀滅者的瘟疫。

For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowlerand from the deadly pestilence.

4

他要用自己的羽翼遮蔽你,你要投靠在他的翅膀底下,他的信實是大大小小的盾牌。

He will cover you with his pinions,and under his wings you will find refuge;his faithfulness is a shield and buckler.

5

你不用害怕黑夜的驚駭,或是白日的飛箭;

You will not fear the terror of the night,nor the arrow that flies by day,

6

不要害怕幽暗中流行的瘟疫,或是正午毀滅人的毒病。

nor the pestilence that stalks in darkness,nor the destruction that wastes at noonday.

7

雖有千人仆倒在你旁邊,萬人仆倒在你右邊,災禍卻不會臨近你。

A thousand may fall at your side,ten thousand at your right hand,but it will not come near you.

8

你要親眼觀看,見到惡人遭報,

You will only look with your eyesand see the recompense of the wicked.

9

因為你以耶和華為自己的避難所,把至高者當作你的居所。

Because you have made the LORD your dwelling place—the Most High, who is my refuge —

10

禍患不會臨到你的身上,災害也不挨近你的帳篷。

no evil shall be allowed to befall you,no plague come near your tent.

11

因為他為了你,會吩咐自己的天使,在你所行的一切路上守護你。

For he will command his angels concerning youto guard you in all your ways.

12

他們會用手托住你,免得你的腳撞在石頭上。

On their hands they will bear you up,lest you strike your foot against a stone.

13

你要踐踏獅子和眼鏡蛇,腳踩少壯獅子和大蛇。

You will tread on the lion and the adder;the young lion and the serpent you will trample underfoot.

14

因為他真心戀慕我,我要拯救他;我要保護他,因為他認識我的名。

“Because he holds fast to me in love, I will deliver him;I will protect him, because he knows my name.

15

他呼求我,我就應允他;他在患難中,我與他同在;我要搭救他,使他得尊榮。

When he calls to me, I will answer him;I will be with him in trouble;I will rescue him and honor him.

16

我要使他得享長壽,向他顯明我的救恩。

With long life I will satisfy himand show him my salvation.”

92
詩篇 92
Psalm 92

歌頌 神的公正和忠誠之愛

How Great Are Your Works

安息日的詩歌。

A Psalm. A Song for the Sabbath.

1

讚美耶和華,歌頌至高者你的名;

It is good to give thanks to the LORD,to sing praises to your name, O Most High;

2

早晨傳揚你的忠誠之愛,晚上宣揚你的信實;

to declare your steadfast love in the morning,and your faithfulness by night,

3

用十弦琴與瑟,用幽雅的旋律;這是多麼美好!

to the music of the lute and the harp,to the melody of the lyre.

4

耶和華啊,你藉著你的作為使我歡喜,我要因你手的工作而歡呼!

For you, O LORD, have made me glad by your work;at the works of your hands I sing for joy.

5

耶和華啊,你的工作多麼偉大,你的意念多麼深奧!

How great are your works, O LORD!Your thoughts are very deep!

6

無理性的人不曉得,愚昧的人不明白這事。

The stupid man cannot know;the fool cannot understand this:

7

雖然惡人茂盛如草,所有作惡的人發旺,他們卻要永遠滅亡。

that though the wicked sprout like grassand all evildoers flourish,they are doomed to destruction forever;

8

耶和華啊,惟有你至高,直到永遠!

but you, O LORD, are on high forever.

9

耶和華啊,你看,你的仇敵!你看,你的仇敵都要滅亡,所有作惡的人都要被驅散!

For behold, your enemies, O LORD,for behold, your enemies shall perish;all evildoers shall be scattered.

10

你卻高舉我的角,像野牛的角;你用新油膏抹我。

But you have exalted my horn like that of the wild ox;you have poured over me fresh oil.

11

我親眼看見我的仇敵遭報,親耳聽見起來攻擊我的惡人受罰。

My eyes have seen the downfall of my enemies;my ears have heard the doom of my evil assailants.

12

義人要茂盛如棕棗樹,像雪松在黎巴嫩生長,

The righteous flourish like the palm treeand grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

13

他們被栽種在耶和華的殿裡,在我們 神的庭院中茂盛,

They are planted in the house of the LORD;they flourish in the courts of our God.

14

直到年老,仍然結果,滿了汁漿,青蔥繁茂,

They still bear fruit in old age;they are ever full of sap and green,

15

好宣揚耶和華多麼正直;他是我的石山,在他毫無奸惡。

to declare that the LORD is upright;he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.

93
詩篇 93
Psalm 93

耶和華為王,世界就穩固

The LORD Reigns

1

耶和華為王,以威嚴為衣;耶和華以威嚴為衣,以能力束腰;世界就穩固,不致動搖。

The LORD reigns; he is robed in majesty;the LORD is robed; he has put on strength as his belt.Yes, the world is established; it shall never be moved.

2

你的寶座自古立定,你從亙古就已存在。

Your throne is established from of old;you are from everlasting.

3

耶和華啊,大水揚起,大水揚聲,波浪澎湃!

The floods have lifted up, O LORD,the floods have lifted up their voice;the floods lift up their roaring.

4

耶和華在高處大有尊榮,勝過眾水的聲音,勝過大海的波濤。

Mightier than the thunders of many waters,mightier than the waves of the sea,the LORD on high is mighty!

5

耶和華啊,你的法規極其確定,你的殿宇聖潔華美,年長日久!

Your decrees are very trustworthy;holiness befits your house,O LORD, forevermore.

94
詩篇 94
Psalm 94

申冤的 神,求你發出光輝!

The LORD Will Not Forsake His People

1

耶和華是申冤的 神,申冤的 神啊,求你發出光輝!

O LORD, God of vengeance,O God of vengeance, shine forth!

2

審判大地的主啊,求你挺身而立,報應驕傲的人!

Rise up, O judge of the earth;repay to the proud what they deserve!

3

耶和華啊,惡人還有多久?惡人洋洋得意,還有多久?

O LORD, how long shall the wicked,how long shall the wicked exult?

4

他們說話,湧出狂言;所有作惡的人,自吹自擂。

They pour out their arrogant words;all the evildoers boast.

5

耶和華啊,你的子民,他們欺壓!你的產業,他們蹂躪!

They crush your people, O LORD,and afflict your heritage.

6

寡婦和寄居者,他們殘殺!甚至孤兒,他們也謀害!

They kill the widow and the sojourner,and murder the fatherless;

7

他們說:“耶和華不會看見,雅各的 神不會明白。”

and they say, “The LORD does not see;the God of Jacob does not perceive.”

8

愚蠢的民啊,你們應當明白!愚昧的人啊,你們何時才明智呢?

Understand, O dullest of the people!Fools, when will you be wise?

9

那造耳朵的,難道聽不到嗎?那造眼睛的,難道看不見嗎?

He who planted the ear, does he not hear?He who formed the eye, does he not see?

10

那管教列國的,難道不責罰嗎?那教導世人的,難道沒知識嗎?

He who disciplines the nations, does he not rebuke?He who teaches man knowledge—

11

耶和華知道世人的意念虛空無用。

the LORD—knows the thoughts of man,that they are but a breath.

12

耶和華啊,你所管教的人,你用律法教導的人,真是有福!

Blessed is the man whom you discipline, O LORD,and whom you teach out of your law,

13

你使他在遭難的日子得享太平,直到挖好了為惡人預備的墓穴。

to give him rest from days of trouble,until a pit is dug for the wicked.

14

因為,耶和華不會丟棄他的子民;他的產業,他不會遺棄。

For the LORD will not forsake his people;he will not abandon his heritage;

15

因為,審判要回歸公義,所有心裡正直的人都要跟從。

for justice will return to the righteous,and all the upright in heart will follow it.

16

誰肯為我起來對抗邪惡的人呢?誰肯為我挺身抵擋作惡的人呢?

Who rises up for me against the wicked?Who stands up for me against evildoers?

17

如果不是耶和華幫助我,我早就住在死寂之地了。

If the LORD had not been my help,my soul would soon have lived in the land of silence.

18

當我正說“我要滑倒了!”耶和華啊,你就以你的忠誠之愛扶持我!

When I thought, “My foot slips,”your steadfast love, O LORD, held me up.

19

我心裡多憂多疑的時候,你就安慰我,使我歡欣。

When the cares of my heart are many,your consolations cheer my soul.

20

那些藉著法例行奸惡,藉著權位行毀滅的人,怎能與你連結呢?

Can wicked rulers be allied with you,those who frame injustice by statute?

21

他們結夥攻擊義人,把無辜者定了死罪。

They band together against the life of the righteousand condemn the innocent to death.

22

但耶和華是我避難的高處,我的 神是我投靠的石山。

But the LORD has become my stronghold,and my God the rock of my refuge.

23

他將使他們的罪責歸到他們身上;他要因他們的邪惡除滅他們;耶和華我們的 神要除滅他們。

He will bring back on them their iniquityand wipe them out for their wickedness;the LORD our God will wipe them out.

95
詩篇 95
Psalm 95

來吧,我們敬拜耶和華!

Let Us Sing Songs of Praise

1

來吧,我們要向耶和華歌唱,向拯救我們的石山歡呼!

Oh come, let us sing to the LORD;let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation!

2

我們要來到他面前感謝他,用詩歌向他歡呼。

Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving;let us make a joyful noise to him with songs of praise!

3

因為,耶和華是偉大的 神,是大君王,超越眾神明之上。

For the LORD is a great God,and a great King above all gods.

4

地的深處在他手中,群山的高峰也屬他。

In his hand are the depths of the earth;the heights of the mountains are his also.

5

海洋屬他,是他所造,陸地也是他的手所造。

The sea is his, for he made it,and his hands formed the dry land.

6

來吧,我們要屈身敬拜,在造我們的耶和華面前跪下!

Oh come, let us worship and bow down;let us kneel before the LORD, our Maker!

7

因為,他是我們的 神;我們是他牧場的子民,是他手下的羊群。惟願你們今天聽從他的話:

For he is our God,and we are the people of his pasture,and the sheep of his hand.Today, if you hear his voice,

8

“你們不可硬著心,像在控訴地,像在荒野試探地的日子;

do not harden your hearts, as at Meribah,as on the day at Massah in the wilderness,

9

在那裡,你們祖先試探我,試驗我,儘管他們看到了我的作為。

when your fathers put me to the testand put me to the proof, though they had seen my work.

10

四十年之久,我厭惡那一代的人,說:‘這是心裡迷誤的人民,他們不認識我的道路。’

For forty years I loathed that generationand said, “They are a people who go astray in their heart,and they have not known my ways.”

11

因此,我在憤怒中起誓說:‘他們絕不可進入我的安息!’”

Therefore I swore in my wrath,“They shall not enter my rest.”

96
詩篇 96
Psalm 96

當敬拜審判全地的 神

2

要向耶和華歌唱,頌讚他的名,天天傳揚他救恩的福音!

Sing to the LORD, bless his name;tell of his salvation from day to day.

3

要在列國中述說他的榮耀,在萬民中傳揚他奇妙的作為!

Declare his glory among the nations,his marvelous works among all the peoples!

4

因為耶和華真偉大,配受至高的稱頌;他令人敬畏,超越眾神明之上。

For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised;he is to be feared above all gods.

5

因為,外族眾神明都是虛空的偶像,唯獨耶和華創造了天。

For all the gods of the peoples are worthless idols,but the LORD made the heavens.

6

尊榮和威嚴在他面前,能力和華美在他聖所之中。

Splendor and majesty are before him;strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.

7

列國的萬族啊,你們要把榮耀和能力歸給耶和華,歸給耶和華!

Ascribe to the LORD, O families of the peoples,ascribe to the LORD glory and strength!

8

要將耶和華的名所當得的榮耀歸給他,拿供物來進入他的院宇。

Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name;bring an offering, and come into his courts!

9

要用聖潔的裝飾來敬拜耶和華,全地當在他面前顫抖。

Worship the LORD in the splendor of holiness;tremble before him, all the earth!

10

你們要在列國中宣告:“耶和華為王,世界就穩固,不致動搖。”他要按公正審判萬民。

Say among the nations, “The LORD reigns!Yes, the world is established; it shall never be moved;he will judge the peoples with equity.”

11

願天歡喜,願地快樂,願海和海中所充滿的都翻騰呼嘯!

Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice;let the sea roar, and all that fills it;

12

願田野和其中的萬有都歡欣雀躍!那時林中所有的樹木都在耶和華面前歡呼。

let the field exult, and everything in it!Then shall all the trees of the forest sing for joy

13

因為他來了,他來要審判這地;他要按公義審判世界,按他的真理審判萬民。

before the LORD, for he comes,for he comes to judge the earth.He will judge the world in righteousness,and the peoples in his faithfulness.

97

2

烏雲和幽暗在他四周,公義和公正是他寶座的根基。

Clouds and thick darkness are all around him;righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.

3

火在他的前頭行,燒滅他周邊的敵人。

Fire goes before himand burns up his adversaries all around.

他的閃電照亮世界,大地看見了就顫抖。

His lightnings light up the world;the earth sees and trembles.

The mountains melt like wax before the LORD,before the Lord of all the earth.

天空傳揚他的公義,萬民得見他的榮耀。

The heavens proclaim his righteousness,and all the peoples see his glory.

7

願所有服侍雕刻的偶像,以虛空的偶像自誇的人,都蒙羞!眾神明啊,你們都要敬拜他!

All worshipers of images are put to shame,who make their boast in worthless idols;worship him, all you gods!

8

耶和華啊,因你的判斷,錫安聽見就歡喜,猶大諸城就快樂!

Zion hears and is glad,and the daughters of Judah rejoice,because of your judgments, O LORD.

9

因為,你耶和華至高,超乎全地;你被尊崇,超越眾神明之上。

For you, O LORD, are most high over all the earth;you are exalted far above all gods.

10

你們愛耶和華的人,應當恨惡罪惡!耶和華守護對他忠誠的人,搭救他們脫離惡人的手。

O you who love the LORD, hate evil!He preserves the lives of his saints;he delivers them from the hand of the wicked.

11

有光撒播,給義人;心裡正直的人,有喜樂。

Light is sown for the righteous,and joy for the upright in heart.

12

義人啊,你們要靠耶和華歡喜,讚美他神聖的名號!

Rejoice in the LORD, O you righteous,and give thanks to his holy name!

耶和華使人知道他的救恩,在列國眼前顯示他的公義。

The LORD has made known his salvation;he has revealed his righteousness in the sight of the nations.

3

他記住他向以色列家所懷的忠誠之愛與信實,全世界每個角落都看見我們 神的救恩。

He has remembered his steadfast love and faithfulnessto the house of Israel.All the ends of the earth have seenthe salvation of our God.

4

全地都要向耶和華歡呼,要揚聲、歡唱並歌頌!

Make a joyful noise to the LORD, all the earth;break forth into joyous song and sing praises!

7

他在雲柱中對他們說話,他們持守他的法度以及他賜給他們的規定。

In the pillar of the cloud he spoke to them;they kept his testimoniesand the statute that he gave them.

8

耶和華我們的 神啊,你親自應允他們;你是赦免他們的 神,但也按他們的行為報應他們!

O LORD our God, you answered them;you were a forgiving God to them,but an avenger of their wrongdoings.

I Will Walk with Integrity

大衛的詩。

A Psalm of David.

1

我要歌唱忠誠之愛與公正,耶和華啊,我要向你歌頌!

I will sing of steadfast love and justice;to you, O LORD, I will make music.

2

我要小心謹慎行正直的道路,你甚麼時候才到我這裡來呢?我要存正直的心,行在我家中。

I will ponder the way that is blameless.Oh when will you come to me?I will walk with integrity of heartwithin my house;

3

邪惡的事,不准出現在我眼前;背道之人所做的事,我都恨惡,決不容這些沾在我身上。

I will not set before my eyesanything that is worthless.I hate the work of those who fall away;it shall not cling to me.

4

歪邪的心,我要遠離;邪惡的事,我不參與。

A perverse heart shall be far from me;I will know nothing of evil.

5

暗中毀謗人者,我要除滅;眼目高傲、心中驕橫的人,我不能容忍。

Whoever slanders his neighbor secretlyI will destroy.Whoever has a haughty look and an arrogant heartI will not endure.

6

我的眼目看顧這地忠信的人,使他們與我同住;行為正直的人,他要侍候我。

7

行詭詐的人,不得住在我家裡;說謊話的人,不許立在我眼前。

No one who practices deceitshall dwell in my house;no one who utters liesshall continue before my eyes.

8

每天早晨,我要除滅這地所有的惡人;好從耶和華城裡,剷除所有作惡的人。

Morning by morning I will destroyall the wicked in the land,cutting off all the evildoersfrom the city of the LORD.

102
詩篇 102
Psalm 102

在患難中,求 神拯救

Do Not Hide Your Face from Me

A Prayer of one afflicted, when he is faint and pours out his complaint before the LORD.

1

耶和華啊,求你聽我的禱告!願我的呼求達到你那裡!

Hear my prayer, O LORD;let my cry come to you!

2

我在患難的日子,求你不要不理我!求你留心聽我,我呼求的時候,求你迅速應允我!

Do not hide your face from mein the day of my distress!Incline your ear to me;answer me speedily in the day when I call!

3

因為,我的年日在煙中消散,我的骨頭如火把燒著。

For my days pass away like smoke,and my bones burn like a furnace.

4

我的心受創傷,像草一樣枯乾;以致我食欲不振。

My heart is struck down like grass and has withered;I forget to eat my bread.

5

因我哀歎的聲音,我的骨頭黏住我的肉。

Because of my loud groaningmy bones cling to my flesh.

6

我像荒野的寒鴉,像廢墟的貓頭鷹。

I am like a desert owl of the wilderness,like an owl of the waste places;

7

我清醒難以入眠,像屋頂上的孤鳥。

I lie awake;I am like a lonely sparrow on the housetop.

8

我的仇敵整天辱罵我,嘲弄我的人指著我詛咒。

All the day my enemies taunt me;those who deride me use my name for a curse.

9

我吃塵土像吃餅,喝水也和著眼淚。

For I eat ashes like breadand mingle tears with my drink,

10

這都因為你的憤恨和震怒,你把我舉起,又把我摔下。

because of your indignation and anger;for you have taken me up and thrown me down.

11

我的年日像夕陽西下,我也像草一樣枯乾。

My days are like an evening shadow;I wither away like grass.

12

而你,耶和華啊,你永遠坐在寶座上,你的名號萬代長存!

But you, O LORD, are enthroned forever;you are remembered throughout all generations.

13

你自己必起來憐恤錫安,現在是恩待錫安的時候,所定的日期已然來到。

You will arise and have pity on Zion;it is the time to favor her;the appointed time has come.

14

因為你的僕人們喜愛錫安的石頭,珍惜她的塵土。

For your servants hold her stones dearand have pity on her dust.

15

列國都要敬畏耶和華的名;世上諸王都敬重你的榮美。

Nations will fear the name of the LORD,and all the kings of the earth will fear your glory.

16

因為,耶和華建造錫安,彰顯他的榮美。

For the LORD builds up Zion;he appears in his glory;

17

因為,他垂聽窮苦人的禱告,不藐視他們的祈求。

he regards the prayer of the destituteand does not despise their prayer.

18

這些事要記下,傳給後來的世代;未來受造之民,都能讚美耶和華。

Let this be recorded for a generation to come,so that a people yet to be created may praise the LORD:

19

耶和華從高天的聖所垂看,他從天上察看大地;

that he looked down from his holy height;from heaven the LORD looked at the earth,

20

要垂聽被囚之人的歎息,解救那些定了死罪的人;

to hear the groans of the prisoners,to set free those who were doomed to die,

21

使人在錫安傳揚耶和華的名,在耶路撒冷傳揚讚美他的話。

that they may declare in Zion the name of the LORD,and in Jerusalem his praise,

22

那時眾民一同聚集,萬國要侍奉耶和華。

when peoples gather together,and kingdoms, to worship the LORD.

23

他使我未老先衰,使我壽數減少。

He has broken my strength in midcourse;he has shortened my days.

24

我說:“我的 神啊,求你不要讓我英年早逝!你的年日代代無窮!”

“O my God,” I say, “take me not awayin the midst of my days—you whose years endurethroughout all generations!”

25

你起初奠立地的根基,天也是你手的工作。

Of old you laid the foundation of the earth,and the heavens are the work of your hands.

26

天地都會消滅,你卻長存;天地都要像衣服漸漸破舊;你將更換天地,像更換衣服;天地就都改變。

They will perish, but you will remain;they will all wear out like a garment.You will change them like a robe, and they will pass away,

27

你卻始終如一,你的年數沒有窮盡。

but you are the same, and your years have no end.

28

你僕人們的子孫要安然居住,他們的後裔要安居在你面前。

The children of your servants shall dwell secure;their offspring shall be established before you.

103
詩篇 103
Psalm 103

頌讚耶和華的忠誠之愛

Bless the LORD, O My Soul

大衛的詩。

Of David.

1

我的心啊,你要頌讚耶和華!在我裡面的一切,都要頌讚他的聖名!

Bless the LORD, O my soul,and all that is within me,bless his holy name!

2

我的心啊,你要頌讚耶和華!不可忘記他的一切恩惠!

Bless the LORD, O my soul,and forget not all his benefits,

3

他赦免你的一切罪責,醫好你的一切疾病。

who forgives all your iniquity,who heals all your diseases,

4

他救贖你的性命脫離死亡,以忠誠之愛和憐恤為你的冠冕。

who redeems your life from the pit,who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy,

5

他以福樂滿足你的心願,使你恢復青春,活力如鷹。

who satisfies you with goodso that your youth is renewed like the eagle's.

6

耶和華施行公義,為所有受欺壓的人主持公道。

The LORD works righteousnessand justice for all who are oppressed.

7

他向摩西展示他的道路,對以色列人顯明他的作為。

He made known his ways to Moses,his acts to the people of Israel.

8

耶和華有憐憫,有恩典,不輕易發怒,有豐盛的忠誠之愛。

The LORD is merciful and gracious,slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.

9

他不會長久控訴,也不會永遠懷怒。

He will not always chide,nor will he keep his anger forever.

10

他沒有按我們的罪惡對待我們,也沒有照我們的罪行報應我們。

He does not deal with us according to our sins,nor repay us according to our iniquities.

11

天離地有多高,他的忠誠之愛向敬畏他的人也有多大。

For as high as the heavens are above the earth,so great is his steadfast love toward those who fear him;

12

東離西有多遠,他叫我們的過犯離我們也有多遠。

as far as the east is from the west,so far does he remove our transgressions from us.

13

父親怎樣憐恤兒女,耶和華也怎樣憐恤敬畏他的人。

As a father shows compassion to his children,so the LORD shows compassion to those who fear him.

14

因為,他知道我們的形體,顧念我們不過是塵土。

For he knows our frame;he remembers that we are dust.

15

至於世人,他的年日像草一般;如野地的花,他一時繁茂;

As for man, his days are like grass;he flourishes like a flower of the field;

16

經風一吹,就不復存在,他原本的地方也不再認識他。

for the wind passes over it, and it is gone,and its place knows it no more.

17

從永遠到永遠,耶和華的忠誠之愛臨到敬畏他的人,他的公義臨到他們的子子孫孫;

But the steadfast love of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting onthose who fear him,and his righteousness to children's children,

18

就是那些遵守他的約,記住他的訓言而遵行的人。

to those who keep his covenantand remember to do his commandments.

19

耶和華在天上立定寶座,他的國權統管萬有。

The LORD has established his throne in the heavens,and his kingdom rules over all.

20

強大有力、聽從他命令、執行他旨意的眾天使啊,你們要頌讚耶和華!

Bless the LORD, O you his angels,you mighty ones who do his word,obeying the voice of his word!

21

做他僕役、執行他旨意的眾天軍啊,你們要頌讚耶和華!

Bless the LORD, all his hosts,his ministers, who do his will!

22

一切受造之物啊,你們在他統管的各處,都要頌讚耶和華!我的心啊,你要頌讚耶和華!

Bless the LORD, all his works,in all places of his dominion.Bless the LORD, O my soul!

104
詩篇 104
Psalm 104

讚美創造的主

O LORD My God, You Are Very Great

1

我的心啊,你要頌讚耶和華!耶和華我的 神啊,你真偉大!你以尊榮威嚴為衣裳,

Bless the LORD, O my soul!O LORD my God, you are very great!You are clothed with splendor and majesty,

2

披上亮光,如披上外袍;展開天空,如鋪張幔帳。

covering yourself with light as with a garment,stretching out the heavens like a tent.

3

在水中立他閣樓的棟梁,以密雲為他的戰車,乘著風的翅膀而行。

He lays the beams of his chambers on the waters;he makes the clouds his chariot;he rides on the wings of the wind;

4

他以他的眾天使為風,以他的眾僕役為火焰;

he makes his messengers winds,his ministers a flaming fire.

5

將地奠立在根基上,使地永遠不動搖。

He set the earth on its foundations,so that it should never be moved.

6

深淵像衣裳遮蓋地面,眾水站立在群山之上。

You covered it with the deep as with a garment;the waters stood above the mountains.

7

因你的斥責,水就退去;因你的雷聲,水就奔流;

At your rebuke they fled;at the sound of your thunder they took to flight.

8

上到群山,下到眾谷,匯流到你所指定之處。

The mountains rose, the valleys sank downto the place that you appointed for them.

9

你定了界限,使水不能越過,眾水也不能再遮蓋地面。

You set a boundary that they may not pass,so that they might not again cover the earth.

10

你使泉源湧入溪谷,在群山間奔流。

You make springs gush forth in the valleys;they flow between the hills;

11

野地所有的走獸有水喝,野驢得以解渴。

they give drink to every beast of the field;the wild donkeys quench their thirst.

12

天空的飛鳥在水旁棲息,在枝葉間啼叫。

Beside them the birds of the heavens dwell;they sing among the branches.

13

你從自己的閣樓中澆灌群山,因你作為的效果,地就滿足。

From your lofty abode you water the mountains;the earth is satisfied with the fruit of your work.

14

你使草生長,給牲畜吃;使蔬菜長出,供人食用;使地裡生出糧食,

You cause the grass to grow for the livestockand plants for man to cultivate,that he may bring forth food from the earth

15

用酒使人心歡喜。有油使人容光煥發,有糧給人加添心力。

and wine to gladden the heart of man,oil to make his face shineand bread to strengthen man's heart.

16

耶和華的樹木,他所栽種的黎巴嫩雪松,都得到滿足。

The trees of the LORD are watered abundantly,the cedars of Lebanon that he planted.

17

鳥兒在那裡築巢;鸛鳥以刺柏為家。

In them the birds build their nests;the stork has her home in the fir trees.

18

高山是野山羊的住所;巖山是巖貍藏身之處。

The high mountains are for the wild goats;the rocks are a refuge for the rock badgers.

19

你造月亮為定節令,太陽知道何時沉落。

He made the moon to mark the seasons;the sun knows its time for setting.

20

你安設黑暗,就有了夜晚,林中百獸在夜間出沒。

You make darkness, and it is night,when all the beasts of the forest creep about.

21

少壯獅子吼叫抓食,向 神尋求食物。

The young lions roar for their prey,seeking their food from God.

22

太陽升起,獸就躲避,躺在藏身之所;

When the sun rises, they steal awayand lie down in their dens.

23

人卻出來工作,勞碌直到晚上。

Man goes out to his workand to his labor until the evening.

24

耶和華啊,你所造的真是眾多,都是你用智慧所造!大地充滿了你的受造物。

O LORD, how manifold are your works!In wisdom have you made them all;the earth is full of your creatures.

25

那裡有海,又大又廣;其中有無數的游動的生物,大小活物都有。

Here is the sea, great and wide,which teems with creatures innumerable,living things both small and great.

26

那裡有船隻往來航行,有你所造的海怪利維坦在其中悠遊。

There go the ships,and Leviathan, which you formed to play in it.

27

牠們全都仰望你按時給牠們食物。

These all look to you,to give them their food in due season.

28

你給牠們,牠們就拾取;你張開手,牠們就飽享美食。

When you give it to them, they gather it up;when you open your hand, they are filled with good things.

29

你對牠們不加理睬,牠們就驚惶;你收回牠們的氣息,牠們就死亡,回歸塵土。

When you hide your face, they are dismayed;when you take away their breath, they dieand return to their dust.

30

你發出你的氣息,牠們就受造;你使地面更換一新。

When you send forth your Spirit, they are created,and you renew the face of the ground.

31

願耶和華的榮耀存到永遠,願耶和華喜悅自己所造的!

May the glory of the LORD endure forever;may the LORD rejoice in his works,

32

他注視大地,地就震動;他觸摸群山,山就冒煙。

who looks on the earth and it trembles,who touches the mountains and they smoke!

33

我一生一世要向耶和華歌唱,只要一息尚存,就要歌頌我的 神。

I will sing to the LORD as long as I live;I will sing praise to my God while I have being.

34

願他以我的默念為甘甜,我自己要因耶和華歡喜!

May my meditation be pleasing to him,for I rejoice in the LORD.

35

願罪人從世上滅絕,願惡人不復存在!我的心啊,你要頌讚耶和華!你們要讚美耶和華!

Let sinners be consumed from the earth,and let the wicked be no more!Bless the LORD, O my soul!Praise the LORD!

105
詩篇 105
Psalm 105

讚美歷史的主:他是施行奇妙作為的 神

Tell of All His Wonderful Works

1

你們要讚美耶和華,頌揚他的名,在萬民中傳揚他的作為!

Oh give thanks to the LORD; call upon his name;make known his deeds among the peoples!

2

你們要向他唱詩,歌頌他,述說他一切奇妙的作為!

Sing to him, sing praises to him;tell of all his wondrous works!

3

你們要稱頌他的聖名,願尋求耶和華的人,心中歡喜!

Glory in his holy name;let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice!

4

你們要尋求耶和華與他的能力,常常尋求他的面!

Seek the LORD and his strength;seek his presence continually!

5–6

他僕人亞伯拉罕的後裔啊,他所揀選的雅各子孫啊,要記住他奇妙的作為,他的奇能和他口中的判語!

5Remember the wondrous works that he has done,his miracles, and the judgments he uttered,

6O offspring of Abraham, his servant,children of Jacob, his chosen ones!

7

他是耶和華我們的 神,他的判語充滿全地。

He is the LORD our God;his judgments are in all the earth.

8

他記住他的約,直到永遠;他所吩咐的話,直到千代;

He remembers his covenant forever,the word that he commanded, for a thousand generations,

9

就是他與亞伯拉罕所立的約,向以撒所起的誓。

the covenant that he made with Abraham,his sworn promise to Isaac,

10

他又以這約向雅各立下規定,向以色列定為永遠的約,

which he confirmed to Jacob as a statute,to Israel as an everlasting covenant,

11

說:“我要將迦南地賜給你,作為你們應得的產業。”

saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaanas your portion for an inheritance.”

12

當時他們人口稀少,人數稀少,又在那地寄居。

When they were few in number,of little account, and sojourners in it,

13

他們從這國飄流到那國,從這邦飄流到那邦。

wandering from nation to nation,from one kingdom to another people,

14

他不許任何人欺凌他們,為他們的緣故,他責備列王,

he allowed no one to oppress them;he rebuked kings on their account,

15

說:“不可傷害我的眾受膏者,也不可惡待我的眾先知。”

saying, “Touch not my anointed ones,do my prophets no harm!”

16

他叫饑荒臨到那地,斷絕所有糧食供應。

When he summoned a famine on the landand broke all supply of bread,

17

在他們之前,他差遣一個人先去,約瑟被賣為奴僕。

he had sent a man ahead of them,Joseph, who was sold as a slave.

18

人用腳鐐傷他的雙腳,用鐵鏈鎖住他的頸項。

His feet were hurt with fetters;his neck was put in a collar of iron;

19

耶和華的話語試煉他,直到他的預言實現。

until what he had said came to pass,the word of the LORD tested him.

20

王差遣人把他解開,治理眾民的釋放他,

The king sent and released him;the ruler of the peoples set him free;

21

王立他執掌朝政,治理他一切所有。

he made him lord of his houseand ruler of all his possessions,

22

他有權捆綁王的大臣,用智慧教導王的長老。

to bind his princes at his pleasureand to teach his elders wisdom.

23

以色列來到埃及;雅各在含地寄居。

Then Israel came to Egypt;Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.

24

耶和華使他的子民極其眾多,使他們比敵人還要強盛。

And the LORD made his people very fruitfuland made them stronger than their foes.

25

他使敵人的心轉去恨他的子民,用詭計待他的僕人們。

He turned their hearts to hate his people,to deal craftily with his servants.

26

他差遣他的僕人摩西和他所揀選的亞倫。

He sent Moses, his servant,and Aaron, whom he had chosen.

27

他們在敵人當中施行他的神蹟,在含地施展他的奇能。

They performed his signs among themand miracles in the land of Ham.

28

他差遣黑暗,使那地黑暗;他們沒有違背他的話語。

He sent darkness, and made the land dark;they did not rebel against his words.

29

他使埃及的水變成血,他叫他們的魚都死亡。

He turned their waters into bloodand caused their fish to die.

30

青蛙遍滿他們的地;甚至遍滿王宮內殿。

Their land swarmed with frogs,even in the chambers of their kings.

31

他一發令,蒼蠅就成群而來,並有虱子進入他們的四境。

He spoke, and there came swarms of flies,and gnats throughout their country.

32

他使冰雹如雨降下,使火焰降在他們的地上。

He gave them hail for rain,and fiery lightning bolts through their land.

33

他擊打葡萄樹與無花果樹,毀壞他們境內的樹木。

He struck down their vines and fig trees,and shattered the trees of their country.

34

他一發令,蝗蟲就來,蚱蜢也來,不可勝數,

He spoke, and the locusts came,young locusts without number,

35

吃盡他們地上所有菜蔬,吃光了他們田間的出產。

which devoured all the vegetation in their landand ate up the fruit of their ground.

36

他又擊殺他們國中一切頭生的,就是他們強壯時所生的頭胎。

He struck down all the firstborn in their land,the firstfruits of all their strength.

37

他領他的民帶著銀子、金子出來,他的眾支派中沒有一個畏縮的。

Then he brought out Israel with silver and gold,and there was none among his tribes who stumbled.

38

他們出來的時候,埃及人就歡喜,因為埃及人懼怕他們。

Egypt was glad when they departed,for dread of them had fallen upon it.

39

他展開雲當遮蓋,夜間有火來光照。

He spread a cloud for a covering,and fire to give light by night.

40

他們一求,他就使鵪鶉飛來,又用天上的糧食使他們飽足。

They asked, and he brought quail,and gave them bread from heaven in abundance.

41

他裂開磐石,水就湧出;在乾旱之處,水流成河;

He opened the rock, and water gushed out;it flowed through the desert like a river.

42

因為他記住他的聖言和他的僕人亞伯拉罕。

For he remembered his holy promise,and Abraham, his servant.

43

他帶領他的子民歡樂而出,帶領他的選民歡呼前往。

So he brought his people out with joy,his chosen ones with singing.

44

他把列國的地賜給他們,他們就承受眾民勞碌的成果。

And he gave them the lands of the nations,and they took possession of the fruit of the peoples' toil,

45

好使他們遵守他的規定,持守他的律法。你們要讚美耶和華!

that they might keep his statutesand observe his laws.Praise the LORD!

106
詩篇 106
Psalm 106

讚美歷史的主:他恩待叛逆的子民

Give Thanks to the LORD, for He Is Good

1

你們要稱頌耶和華!你們要讚美耶和華,因為他實在美善,他的忠誠之愛永遠長存!

Praise the LORD!Oh give thanks to the LORD, for he is good,for his steadfast love endures forever!

2

誰能述說耶和華大能的作為?誰能宣告他所有當讚美之事?

Who can utter the mighty deeds of the LORD,or declare all his praise?

3

那些謹守公正,常行公義的人,真是有福!

Blessed are they who observe justice,who do righteousness at all times!

4

耶和華啊,你恩待你子民的時候,求你記得我!你拯救他們的時候,求你眷顧我!

Remember me, O LORD, when you show favor to your people;help me when you save them,

5

讓我經歷你揀選之人的福分,因你的子民之樂而樂,與屬於你的人一同誇耀!

that I may look upon the prosperity of your chosen ones,that I may rejoice in the gladness of your nation,that I may glory with your inheritance.

6

我們和我們的列祖犯罪,我們犯錯作惡。

Both we and our fathers have sinned;we have committed iniquity; we have done wickedness.

7

我們的列祖在埃及的時候,他們不明白你奇妙的作為,不記得你豐盛的忠誠之愛,反倒在紅海邊行了叛逆;

Our fathers, when they were in Egypt,did not consider your wondrous works;they did not remember the abundance of your steadfast love,but rebelled by the sea, at the Red Sea.

8

但他因自己名的緣故拯救他們,為要使人知道他的大能。

Yet he saved them for his name's sake,that he might make known his mighty power.

9

他斥責紅海,海水立刻乾涸;他領他們走過海底,像走荒野。

He rebuked the Red Sea, and it became dry,and he led them through the deep as through a desert.

10

他拯救他們脫離憎恨他們之人的手,他救贖他們脫離仇敵之手。

So he saved them from the hand of the foeand redeemed them from the power of the enemy.

11

海水淹沒他們的敵人,連一個都沒有留下。

And the waters covered their adversaries;not one of them was left.

12

他們這才相信他的話,歌頌讚美他。

Then they believed his words;they sang his praise.

13

沒有多久,他們就忘記他的作為,不仰望他的指引,

But they soon forgot his works;they did not wait for his counsel.

14

反倒在荒野大起貪慾,在荒地試探 神。

But they had a wanton craving in the wilderness,and put God to the test in the desert;

15

他將他們所求的賜給他們,卻使他們的心靈耗弱。

he gave them what they asked,but sent a wasting disease among them.

16

他們又在營中嫉妒摩西,以及歸耶和華為聖的亞倫。

When men in the camp were jealous of Mosesand Aaron, the holy one of the LORD,

17

地裂開,吞沒達坦,掩埋亞比蘭一夥人。

the earth opened and swallowed up Dathan,and covered the company of Abiram.

18

火在他們黨羽中燃起,烈焰燒滅了惡人。

Fire also broke out in their company;the flame burned up the wicked.

19

他們在何烈造牛像,敬拜包金的像;

They made a calf in Horeband worshiped a metal image.

20

竟把他們榮耀的 神,換成了吃草之牛的像,

They exchanged the glory of Godfor the image of an ox that eats grass.

21

忘記了 神他們的救主;神曾在埃及行了大事,

They forgot God, their Savior,who had done great things in Egypt,

22

就是在含地的奇妙作為,在紅海那裡的可畏之事。

wondrous works in the land of Ham,and awesome deeds by the Red Sea.

23

因此他說他要滅絕他們;要不是他所揀選的摩西,在他面前,站在破口上,使他的怒火轉消,他們就早已滅亡!

Therefore he said he would destroy them—had not Moses, his chosen one,stood in the breach before him,to turn away his wrath from destroying them.

24

他們又鄙棄那美地,不信他的應許。

Then they despised the pleasant land,having no faith in his promise.

25

他們在自己的帳篷裡抱怨,不聽從耶和華的話。

They murmured in their tents,and did not obey the voice of the LORD.

26

因此,他對他們舉手發誓,要使他們倒斃荒野,

Therefore he raised his hand and swore to themthat he would make them fall in the wilderness,

27

使他們的後裔倒斃列國中,分散在各地。

and would make their offspring fall among the nations,scattering them among the lands.

28

他們又歸附巴力琵珥,吃了給亡者的祭物。

Then they yoked themselves to the Baal of Peor,and ate sacrifices offered to the dead;

29

他們的惡行惹 神發怒,瘟疫在他們當中爆發。

they provoked the LORD to anger with their deeds,and a plague broke out among them.

30

那時,非尼哈挺身而出,瘟疫這才止住;

Then Phinehas stood up and intervened,and the plague was stayed.

31

這就算為他的義,世世代代,直到永遠。

And that was counted to him as righteousnessfrom generation to generation forever.

32

他們在控訴地的水邊惹 神發怒,甚至摩西也因他們而受連累。

They angered him at the waters of Meribah,and it went ill with Moses on their account,

33

因為他們惹摩西發怒,以致他脫口說冒失的話。

for they made his spirit bitter,and he spoke rashly with his lips.

34

他們沒有照耶和華的吩咐,把異族之民滅絕;

They did not destroy the peoples,as the LORD commanded them,

35

反而與列國混居雜處,仿效他們的習俗,

but they mixed with the nationsand learned to do as they did.

36

侍奉他們的偶像,讓這些偶像變成自己的羅網;

They served their idols,which became a snare to them.

37

他們犧牲自己的兒女,獻給當地的鬼魔。

They sacrificed their sonsand their daughters to the demons;

38

他們使無辜的人流血喪命,就是把兒女宰獻給迦南的偶像,使他們流血喪命,那地就被血玷污了。

they poured out innocent blood,the blood of their sons and daughters,whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan,and the land was polluted with blood.

39

他們所做的事使自己污穢,以他們的惡行犯了邪淫。

Thus they became unclean by their acts,and played the whore in their deeds.

40

耶和華的怒氣向他的子民發作,他憎惡自己的產業,

Then the anger of the LORD was kindled against his people,and he abhorred his heritage;

41

把他們交在列國手中,恨他們的人就管轄他們。

he gave them into the hand of the nations,so that those who hated them ruled over them.

42

他們的仇敵欺壓他們,他們就屈服在仇敵手下。

Their enemies oppressed them,and they were brought into subjection under their power.

43

神多次搭救他們,他們卻圖謀反叛,因自己的罪而墮落。

Many times he delivered them,but they were rebellious in their purposesand were brought low through their iniquity.

44

然而,當他聽見他們的呼求,就顧念他們的苦難;

Nevertheless, he looked upon their distress,when he heard their cry.

45

並為他們記住他自己的約,照他豐盛的忠誠之愛回心轉意;

For their sake he remembered his covenant,and relented according to the abundance of his steadfast love.

46

又在所有擄掠他們的人面前,使他們蒙憐憫。

He caused them to be pitiedby all those who held them captive.

47

耶和華我們的 神啊,求你拯救我們,把我們從列國中招聚回來,好讓我們讚美你的聖名,以頌讚你為誇耀!

Save us, O LORD our God,and gather us from among the nations,that we may give thanks to your holy nameand glory in your praise.

48

耶和華以色列的 神配受稱頌,從永遠到永遠!願全體人民都說:“阿們!”你們要讚美耶和華!

Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel,from everlasting to everlasting!And let all the people say, “Amen!”Praise the LORD!

詩篇卷五BOOK FIVE
107
詩篇 107
Psalm 107

願人因耶和華的忠誠之愛而讚美他

Book Five

Let the Redeemed of the LORD Say So

Let the Redeemed of the LORD Say So

1

你們要讚美耶和華,因為他實在美善,他的忠誠之愛永遠長存!

Oh give thanks to the LORD, for he is good,for his steadfast love endures forever!

2

願耶和華救贖的子民都這樣讚美他;他救贖他們脫離仇敵的掌握,

Let the redeemed of the LORD say so,whom he has redeemed from trouble

3

從東從西、從北從海,從各地把他們招聚而來。

and gathered in from the lands,from the east and from the west,from the north and from the south.

4

他們在荒野、在荒地飄流,找不到通往可居住城邑的路。

Some wandered in desert wastes,finding no way to a city to dwell in;

5

又飢又渴,奄奄一息。

hungry and thirsty,their soul fainted within them.

6

他們在患難中呼求耶和華,他就搭救他們脫離災禍;

Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble,and he delivered them from their distress.

7

領他們走正直的路,前往可居住的城邑。

He led them by a straight waytill they reached a city to dwell in.

8

願人因耶和華的忠誠之愛,以及他向世人施行的奇妙作為而讚美他!

Let them thank the LORD for his steadfast love,for his wondrous works to the children of man!

9

因為,他使乾渴的人得到滿足,使飢餓的人飽享美福。

For he satisfies the longing soul,and the hungry soul he fills with good things.

10

有些人坐在黑暗和死蔭裡,被痛苦的鐵鏈捆鎖,

Some sat in darkness and in the shadow of death,prisoners in affliction and in irons,

11

是因為他們違背了 神的話語;至高者的指引,他們藐視。

for they had rebelled against the words of God,and spurned the counsel of the Most High.

12

因此 神用苦難使他們謙卑;他們仆倒,卻無人幫助。

So he bowed their hearts down with hard labor;they fell down, with none to help.

13

他們在患難中呼求耶和華,他就拯救他們脫離災禍。

Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble,and he delivered them from their distress.

14

他領他們出黑暗和死蔭;把他們的軛繩扯斷。

He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death,and burst their bonds apart.

15

願人因耶和華的忠誠之愛,以及他向世人施行的奇妙作為而讚美他!

Let them thank the LORD for his steadfast love,for his wondrous works to the children of man!

16

因為,他打破銅門,又砍斷鐵閂。

For he shatters the doors of bronzeand cuts in two the bars of iron.

17

愚頑的人因自己的叛逆行徑,以及諸般罪行而受苦。

Some were fools through their sinful ways,and because of their iniquities suffered affliction;

18

他們厭惡各種食物,就臨近死亡之門。

they loathed any kind of food,and they drew near to the gates of death.

19

他們在患難中呼求耶和華,他就拯救他們脫離災禍。

Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble,and he delivered them from their distress.

20

他發出話語醫好他們,救他們脫離墓穴。

He sent out his word and healed them,and delivered them from their destruction.

21

願人因耶和華的忠誠之愛,以及他向世人施行的奇妙作為而讚美他!

Let them thank the LORD for his steadfast love,for his wondrous works to the children of man!

22

願他們以感謝為祭獻給他,歡呼述說他的作為!

And let them offer sacrifices of thanksgiving,and tell of his deeds in songs of joy!

23

那些乘船航行在海上,在大洋中從事貿易的人,

Some went down to the sea in ships,doing business on the great waters;

24

他們看見耶和華所做的事,以及他在深海施行的奇妙作為。

they saw the deeds of the LORD,his wondrous works in the deep.

25

他一吩咐,狂風就颳起,波浪也高揚。

For he commanded and raised the stormy wind,which lifted up the waves of the sea.

26

他們上到天空,下到深淵;他們因危難而膽戰心驚。

They mounted up to heaven; they went down to the depths;their courage melted away in their evil plight;

27

他們搖搖晃晃,東倒西歪,好像醉酒之人;他們的一切智慧都無法施展。

they reeled and staggered like drunken menand were at their wits' end.

28

他們在患難中呼求耶和華,他就引領他們脫離災禍。

Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble,and he delivered them from their distress.

29

他使狂風止息,波浪平靜。

He made the storm be still,and the waves of the sea were hushed.

30

由於風平浪靜,他們就歡喜;他就領他們到所要去的港口。

Then they were glad that the waters were quiet,and he brought them to their desired haven.

31

願人因耶和華的忠誠之愛,以及他向世人施行的奇妙作為而讚美他!

Let them thank the LORD for his steadfast love,for his wondrous works to the children of man!

32

願他們在眾民的聚會中尊崇他,在長老們的議會中讚美他!

Let them extol him in the congregation of the people,and praise him in the assembly of the elders.

33

他使江河變為荒野,水泉變為乾渴之地,

He turns rivers into a desert,springs of water into thirsty ground,

34

使沃土良田變為鹼地,都因當地居民的邪惡。

a fruitful land into a salty waste,because of the evil of its inhabitants.

35

他使荒野變為水塘,乾旱之地變為水泉。

He turns a desert into pools of water,a parched land into springs of water.

36

他使飢餓的人住在那裡,好讓他們建造可居住的城。

And there he lets the hungry dwell,and they establish a city to live in;

37

他們耕種田地,栽種葡萄園,得到豐盛的收成。

they sow fields and plant vineyardsand get a fruitful yield.

38

他賜福給他們生養眾多,他們的牲口也沒有減少。

By his blessing they multiply greatly,and he does not let their livestock diminish.

39

他們因為壓迫、災禍和悲傷,就人數減少,降為卑下。

When they are diminished and brought lowthrough oppression, evil, and sorrow,

40

他使權貴蒙羞受辱,使他們在荒涼無路之地飄流。

he pours contempt on princesand makes them wander in trackless wastes;

41

他把窮人安置在避難的高處,免受苦難,使他們家族繁衍,好像羊群。

but he raises up the needy out of afflictionand makes their families like flocks.

42

正直人看見就歡喜,奸惡之徒啞口無言。

The upright see it and are glad,and all wickedness shuts its mouth.

43

誰有智慧?願他留意這些事,願他們思想耶和華的忠誠之愛!

Whoever is wise, let him attend to these things;let them consider the steadfast love of the LORD.

108
詩篇 108
Psalm 108

求 神幫助戰勝敵人

With God We Shall Do Valiantly

大衛的詩歌。

A Song. A Psalm of David.

1

神啊,我心堅定,用我心靈,我要歌唱,我要頌讚!

My heart is steadfast, O God!I will sing and make melody with all my being!

2

琴瑟啊,醒來吧!我要喚醒黎明!

Awake, O harp and lyre!I will awake the dawn!

3

耶和華啊,我要在眾民中讚美你,我要在萬族中歌頌你!

I will give thanks to you, O LORD, among the peoples;I will sing praises to you among the nations.

4

因為你的忠誠之愛實在偉大,高過天空,你的信實直達雲霄。

For your steadfast love is great above the heavens;your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.

5

神啊,願你被尊崇高過天空,願你的榮耀遍滿大地!

Be exalted, O God, above the heavens!Let your glory be over all the earth!

6

求你用你的右手拯救我們,應允我們,使你所愛的人獲救!

That your beloved ones may be delivered,give salvation by your right hand and answer me!

7

神在他的聖所中說:“我要誇勝!我要分開示劍,我要量度棚村谷。

God has promised in his holiness:“With exultation I will divide up Shechemand portion out the Valley of Succoth.

8

基列屬我,瑪拿西也屬我;以法蓮是我的頭盔,猶大是我的權杖。

Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine;Ephraim is my helmet,Judah my scepter.

9

摩押是我的洗濯盆,我要向伊東擲鞋;我要向非利士誇勝歡呼。”

Moab is my washbasin;upon Edom I cast my shoe;over Philistia I shout in triumph.”

10

誰能領我進入堅城?誰能帶我到伊東地?

Who will bring me to the fortified city?Who will lead me to Edom?

11

神啊,你竟然棄絕了我們!神啊,你不再和我們的軍隊一同出征!

Have you not rejected us, O God?You do not go out, O God, with our armies.

12

求你幫助我們脫離敵人,因為人的救助真是枉然。

Oh grant us help against the foe,for vain is the salvation of man!

13

我們倚靠 神奮勇作戰,他將親自踐踏我們的敵人。

With God we shall do valiantly;it is he who will tread down our foes.

109
詩篇 109
Psalm 109

求 神報應邪惡的控告者

Help Me, O LORD My God

大衛的詩,交給詩班長。

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.

1

我所頌讚的 神啊,求你不要沉默!

Be not silent, O God of my praise!

2

因為邪惡之人的嘴和詭詐之人的口,已經張開攻擊我;他們用虛謊的舌頭對我說話。

For wicked and deceitful mouths are opened against me,speaking against me with lying tongues.

3

他們用憎恨的話圍攻我,無緣無故攻擊我。

They encircle me with words of hate,and attack me without cause.

4

他們以控告來回報我的愛,而我—祈禱!

In return for my love they accuse me,but I give myself to prayer.

5

他們對我以惡報善,以憎恨回報我的愛。

So they reward me evil for good,and hatred for my love.

6

求你派惡人來對付他,派控告者站在他右邊!

Appoint a wicked man against him;let an accuser stand at his right hand.

7

當他受審判時,願他被宣判有罪,願他的禱告也算為罪!

When he is tried, let him come forth guilty;let his prayer be counted as sin!

8

願他的年日短少,願別人取得他的職分!

May his days be few;may another take his office!

9

願他的兒女成為孤兒,願他的妻子成為寡婦!

May his children be fatherlessand his wife a widow!

10

願他的兒女流離失所到處行乞,願他們被趕出他們荒廢的家!

May his children wander about and beg,seeking food far from the ruins they inhabit!

11

願債主沒收他所有的一切,願外人奪去他勞碌所得!

May the creditor seize all that he has;may strangers plunder the fruits of his toil!

12

願無人對他施行忠誠之愛,願無人恩待他的孤兒!

Let there be none to extend kindness to him,nor any to pity his fatherless children!

13

願他的後人被除滅,願他們的名號在下一代就被抹掉!

May his posterity be cut off;may his name be blotted out in the second generation!

14

願他祖宗的罪過被耶和華追究,願他母親的罪惡不被抹掉!

May the iniquity of his fathers be remembered before the LORD,and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out!

15

願這些罪常在耶和華面前,願他們的名號從地上被除掉!

Let them be before the LORD continually,that he may cut off the memory of them from the earth!

16

因為他從未想過要以忠誠之愛待人,反倒迫害貧苦窮困和傷心的人,要置他們於死地。

For he did not remember to show kindness,but pursued the poor and needyand the brokenhearted, to put them to death.

17

他既喜愛詛咒,就願詛咒臨到他;他不樂意祝福,就願福樂遠離他!

He loved to curse; let curses come upon him!He did not delight in blessing; may it be far from him!

18

他把詛咒當衣服穿上,詛咒像水進入他體內,像油進入他的骨頭。

He clothed himself with cursing as his coat;may it soak into his body like water,like oil into his bones!

19

願詛咒像他所披的外衣,又像他經常束上的腰帶!

May it be like a garment that he wraps around him,like a belt that he puts on every day!

20

願控告我和用惡言攻擊我的人,都從耶和華那裡得到這報應!

May this be the reward of my accusers from the LORD,of those who speak evil against my life!

21

而你,主耶和華啊,求你因你名的緣故恩待我!因你的忠誠之愛實在美善,求你搭救我!

But you, O GOD my Lord,deal on my behalf for your name's sake;because your steadfast love is good, deliver me!

22

因我貧苦窮困,我的內心傷痛。

For I am poor and needy,and my heart is stricken within me.

23

我像日影西沉,像蝗蟲被抖掉。

I am gone like a shadow at evening;I am shaken off like a locust.

24

我因禁食,雙膝軟弱;身體消瘦,不再豐潤;

My knees are weak through fasting;my body has become gaunt, with no fat.

25

我成為他們的笑柄,他們一看見我就搖頭。

I am an object of scorn to my accusers;when they see me, they wag their heads.

26

耶和華我的 神啊,求你幫助我,按你的忠誠之愛拯救我!

Help me, O LORD my God!Save me according to your steadfast love!

27

讓他們知道這是你的手,是你—耶和華所做的事。

Let them know that this is your hand;you, O LORD, have done it!

28

任憑他們詛咒吧,但是你卻要賜福!願起來攻擊我的人蒙羞,你的僕人就歡喜!

Let them curse, but you will bless!They arise and are put to shame, but your servant will be glad!

29

願敵對我的人披戴羞辱,願他們披戴羞辱像外袍!

May my accusers be clothed with dishonor;may they be wrapped in their own shame as in a cloak!

30

我要用口極力讚美耶和華,我要在眾人當中頌讚他!

With my mouth I will give great thanks to the LORD;I will praise him in the midst of the throng.

31

因為,他要站在窮人的右邊,拯救他脫離定他死罪的人。

For he stands at the right hand of the needy one,to save him from those who condemn his soul to death.

110
詩篇 110
Psalm 110

得勝的君王,君尊的祭司

Sit at My Right Hand

大衛的詩。

A Psalm of David.

1

耶和華對我主宣告:“你坐在我的右邊,等我使你的仇敵做你的腳凳。”

The LORD says to my Lord:“Sit at my right hand,until I make your enemies your footstool.”

2

耶和華將使你從錫安伸出能力的權杖,你要在你的仇敵中掌權。

The LORD sends forth from Zionyour mighty scepter.Rule in the midst of your enemies!

3

在你征戰的日子,你的人民甘心犧牲自己,你的少年以聖潔為裝飾;從清晨的孕育之中,像甘露一樣歸向你。

Your people will offer themselves freelyon the day of your power,in holy garments;from the womb of the morning,the dew of your youth will be yours.

4

耶和華起了誓,絕不改變心意:“你照著麥基洗德的模式,永遠做祭司。”

The LORD has swornand will not change his mind,“You are a priest foreverafter the order of Melchizedek.”

5

主在你的右邊,在他發怒的日子,他將重創列王。

The Lord is at your right hand;he will shatter kings on the day of his wrath.

6

他將在列國中施行審判,以致屍橫遍野,他要重創各地的首領。

He will execute judgment among the nations,filling them with corpses;he will shatter chiefsover the wide earth.

7

他可以從路旁的溪谷飲水,他將因此挺身昂首。

He will drink from the brook by the way;therefore he will lift up his head.

111
詩篇 111
Psalm 111

頌讚耶和華偉大信實的作為

Great Are the LORD's Works

你們要讚美耶和華!我要全心全意頌讚耶和華,在正直人的聚集和群體中頌讚他。

耶和華的作為實在偉大,被所有喜愛的人探究。

他的後裔在地上必定強盛,正直人的群體將會蒙福。

His offspring will be mighty in the land;the generation of the upright will be blessed.

3

他的家中有財富和金錢,他的義行存到永遠。

Wealth and riches are in his house,and his righteousness endures forever.

4

正直人在黑暗中有光照耀他,他有恩典,好憐憫,行公義。

Light dawns in the darkness for the upright;he is gracious, merciful, and righteous.

5

樂善好施、秉公辦事的人必享福樂;

It is well with the man who deals generously and lends;who conducts his affairs with justice.

6

他永遠不會動搖;義人將被紀念,直到永遠。

For the righteous will never be moved;he will be remembered forever.

7

對於壞消息,他不會懼怕;他的心堅定,倚靠耶和華。

He is not afraid of bad news;his heart is firm, trusting in the LORD.

8

他的心堅決,毫不懼怕,直到他見到敵人遭報應。

His heart is steady; he will not be afraid,until he looks in triumph on his adversaries.

9

他廣施錢財賙濟窮人,他的義行存到永遠;他力量高強,受人敬重。

He has distributed freely; he has given to the poor;his righteousness endures forever;his horn is exalted in honor.

10

惡人看見就惱怒,絕望地咬牙切齒;惡人的心願將歸幻滅。

The wicked man sees it and is angry;he gnashes his teeth and melts away;the desire of the wicked will perish!

113

耶和華的名配受稱頌,從現在直到永遠。

Blessed be the name of the LORDfrom this time forth and forevermore!

3

從日出之地到日落之處,耶和華的名都配受讚美。

From the rising of the sun to its setting,the name of the LORD is to be praised!

4

耶和華至高無上,超越萬國,他的榮耀高過天空。

The LORD is high above all nations,and his glory above the heavens!

5

誰像耶和華我們的 神?他坐在至高之處,

Who is like the LORD our God,who is seated on high,

6

他俯身察看,天上和地下。

who looks far downon the heavens and the earth?

7

他從塵土中抬舉窮人,從糞堆中提拔貧困的人;

He raises the poor from the dustand lifts the needy from the ash heap,

8

使他們與權貴同坐,與民中的權貴同席。

to make them sit with princes,with the princes of his people.

9

他使不孕的婦女安居家中,成為兒女成群的快樂母親。你們要讚美耶和華!

114
詩篇 114
Psalm 114

逾越節之歌

Tremble at the Presence of the Lord

1

當以色列出埃及,雅各家離開說外國話的人民,

When Israel went out from Egypt,the house of Jacob from a people of strange language,

2

猶大就成為主的聖所,以色列成為他統治的國。

Judah became his sanctuary,Israel his dominion.

3

紅海看見就奔逃,約旦河也倒流。

The sea looked and fled;Jordan turned back.

4

大山跳躍像公羊,小山跳躍像小羊。

The mountains skipped like rams,the hills like lambs.

5

紅海啊,你為甚麼奔逃?約旦河啊,你為甚麼倒流?

What ails you, O sea, that you flee?O Jordan, that you turn back?

6

大山啊,你們為甚麼跳躍像公羊?小山啊,你們為甚麼跳躍像小羊?

O mountains, that you skip like rams?O hills, like lambs?

7

大地啊,你在主的面前,在雅各的 神面前應當顫抖!

Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord,at the presence of the God of Jacob,

8

他使磐石變為水池,又使堅石變為水泉。

who turns the rock into a pool of water,the flint into a spring of water.

115
詩篇 115
Psalm 115

真神與偶像的對比

To Your Name Give Glory

1

耶和華啊,不要把榮耀歸給我們,不要歸給我們!要因你的忠誠之愛,你的信實,歸在你的名下!

Not to us, O LORD, not to us, but to your name give glory,for the sake of your steadfast love and your faithfulness!

2

為甚麼讓列國的人說:“他們的 神在哪裡呢?”

Why should the nations say,“Where is their God?”

3

我們的 神就在天上,他喜歡甚麼,就做甚麼。

Our God is in the heavens;he does all that he pleases.

4

列國的偶像是銀的、金的,是人手所造的;

Their idols are silver and gold,the work of human hands.

5

有嘴巴,卻不能說話;有眼睛,卻不能看;

They have mouths, but do not speak;eyes, but do not see.

6

有耳朵,卻不能聽;有鼻子,卻不能聞;

They have ears, but do not hear;noses, but do not smell.

7

手不能摸,腳不能行,也不能用喉嚨發聲。

They have hands, but do not feel;feet, but do not walk;and they do not make a sound in their throat.

8

造偶像的人要和偶像一樣,凡倚靠它們的人也都如此。

Those who make them become like them;so do all who trust in them.

9

以色列啊,要倚靠耶和華!他才是你們的幫助和盾牌。

O Israel, trust in the LORD!He is their help and their shield.

10

亞倫家啊,要倚靠耶和華!他才是你們的幫助和盾牌。

O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD!He is their help and their shield.

11

敬畏耶和華的人啊,要倚靠耶和華!他才是你們的幫助和盾牌。

You who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD!He is their help and their shield.

12

耶和華顧念我們,他要賜福;賜福給以色列家,賜福給亞倫家。

The LORD has remembered us; he will bless us;he will bless the house of Israel;he will bless the house of Aaron;

13

敬畏耶和華的人,無論大小,他都要賜福。

he will bless those who fear the LORD,both the small and the great.

14

願耶和華使你們人數增多,使你們和你們的子孫增多。

May the LORD give you increase,you and your children!

15

願你們蒙造天地的耶和華賜福。

May you be blessed by the LORD,who made heaven and earth!

16

天,是耶和華的天;地,他卻賜給世人。

The heavens are the LORD's heavens,but the earth he has given to the children of man.

17

死人不能讚美耶和華,凡下到寂靜中的人也都不能。

The dead do not praise the LORD,nor do any who go down into silence.

18

然而我們,我們要稱頌耶和華,從現在直到永遠!你們要讚美耶和華!

But we will bless the LORDfrom this time forth and forevermore.Praise the LORD!

116
詩篇 116
Psalm 116

為蒙拯救脫離死亡讚美耶和華

I Love the LORD

1

我愛耶和華,因為他聽了我的聲音,我的懇求。

I love the LORD, because he has heardmy voice and my pleas for mercy.

2

因為他留心聽我,我要一生一世呼求他。

Because he inclined his ear to me,therefore I will call on him as long as I live.

3

死亡的繩索纏繞我,陰間的困苦臨到我;我遭遇患難與悲傷,

The snares of death encompassed me;the pangs of Sheol laid hold on me;I suffered distress and anguish.

4

我就呼求耶和華的名,說:“哦,耶和華啊,求你拯救我的性命!”

Then I called on the name of the LORD:“O LORD, I pray, deliver my soul!”

5

耶和華有恩典,有公義,我們的 神滿有憐憫。

Gracious is the LORD, and righteous;our God is merciful.

6

耶和華守護幼稚的人,我在卑微中,他就拯救我。

The LORD preserves the simple;when I was brought low, he saved me.

7

我的心啊,你要回歸安寧,因為耶和華用厚恩待你!

Return, O my soul, to your rest;for the LORD has dealt bountifully with you.

8

主啊,你救了我的命脫離死亡;使我的眼不用流淚;使我的腳不致跌倒!

For you have delivered my soul from death,my eyes from tears,my feet from stumbling;

9

我要在活人之地;行在耶和華面前。

I will walk before the LORDin the land of the living.

10

雖然我說:“我受了極大的痛苦”,但我仍然相信;

I believed, even when I spoke,“I am greatly afflicted”;

11

我在驚恐中曾說:“人皆虛詐!”

I said in my alarm,“All mankind are liars.”

12

我拿甚麼報答耶和華賜給我的一切厚恩呢?

What shall I render to the LORDfor all his benefits to me?

13

我要舉起救恩的杯,宣揚耶和華的名。

I will lift up the cup of salvationand call on the name of the LORD,

14

我要在他全體人民面前,向耶和華還我的願。

I will pay my vows to the LORDin the presence of all his people.

15

在耶和華的眼中,對他忠誠的人死去,是慘重的損失!

Precious in the sight of the LORDis the death of his saints.

16

哦,耶和華啊,我真是你的僕人,我是你的僕人,是你婢女的兒子,你已解開把我捆綁的繩索!

O LORD, I am your servant;I am your servant, the son of your maidservant.You have loosed my bonds.

17

我要把感恩祭獻給你,我要宣揚耶和華的名。

I will offer to you the sacrifice of thanksgivingand call on the name of the LORD.

18

我要向耶和華還我的願,哦,就在他全體人民面前,

I will pay my vows to the LORDin the presence of all his people,

19

在耶和華殿的院內,在耶路撒冷當中!你們要讚美耶和華!

in the courts of the house of the LORD,in your midst, O Jerusalem.Praise the LORD!

117
詩篇 117
Psalm 117

萬國當讚美耶和華

The LORD's Faithfulness Endures Forever

1

萬國啊,你們要讚美耶和華!萬民啊,你們都要頌讚他!

Praise the LORD, all nations!Extol him, all peoples!

Jerusalem—built as a citythat is bound firmly together,

Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us,for we have had more than enough of contempt.

大衛的上行之歌。

A Song of Ascents. Of David.

“若非耶和華幫助我們”—以色列人要說:

If it had not been the LORD who was on our side—let Israel now say—

2

“若非耶和華幫助我們,當人起來攻擊我們,

if it had not been the LORD who was on our sidewhen people rose up against us,

3

向我們發怒的時候,早就會把我們活活吞了!

then they would have swallowed us up alive,when their anger was kindled against us;

4

那時,大水早就會沖走我們,急流早就會淹沒我們;

then the flood would have swept us away,the torrent would have gone over us;

5

那時,洶湧的洪水早就會淹沒我們了!”

then over us would have gonethe raging waters.

6

耶和華配受稱頌!他沒有讓我們成為獵物,給敵人的牙齒撕裂。

Blessed be the LORD,who has not given usas prey to their teeth!

7

我們好像雀鳥,逃出捕鳥人的羅網;羅網破裂,我們就逃脫。

We have escaped like a birdfrom the snare of the fowlers;the snare is broken,and we have escaped!

如同群山圍繞耶路撒冷,耶和華也圍繞他的子民,從現在直到永遠。

As the mountains surround Jerusalem,so the LORD surrounds his people,from this time forth and forevermore.

3

惡人的杖不會常留在義人的產業上,免得義人伸手作惡。

For the scepter of wickedness shall not reston the land allotted to the righteous,lest the righteous stretch outtheir hands to do wrong.

流淚撒種,歡呼收割

Restore Our Fortunes, O LORD

A Song of Ascents.

1

當耶和華使被擄的人回歸錫安的時候,我們恍如做夢的人。

When the LORD restored the fortunes of Zion,we were like those who dream.

2

那時,我們滿口喜笑,滿舌歡呼;那時,人們在列國中說:“耶和華為他們做了大事!”

Then our mouth was filled with laughter,and our tongue with shouts of joy;then they said among the nations,“The LORD has done great things for them.”

3

耶和華的確為我們做了大事,我們真是歡喜。

The LORD has done great things for us;we are glad.

Restore our fortunes, O LORD,like streams in the Negeb!

Psalm 127

建屋守城都靠耶和華

Unless the LORD Builds the House

A Song of Ascents. Of Solomon.

1

若非耶和華建造房屋,建造的人就徒然勞苦;若非耶和華守護城池,守護的人就徒然警醒。

Unless the LORD builds the house,those who build it labor in vain.Unless the LORD watches over the city,the watchman stays awake in vain.

2

你們早起晚睡,勞碌糊口,都是徒然;的確,耶和華賜安睡給他所愛的人。

It is in vain that you rise up earlyand go late to rest,eating the bread of anxious toil;for he gives to his beloved sleep.

3

要知道,兒女是耶和華所賜的產業,腹中的胎兒是他的賞賜。

Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD,the fruit of the womb a reward.

4

年輕時所生的兒女,好像勇士手中的箭矢。

Like arrows in the hand of a warriorare the children of one's youth.

5

箭袋滿滿的人,真是有福!他們在城門口與仇敵說話時,就不致蒙羞。

Blessed is the manwho fills his quiver with them!He shall not be put to shamewhen he speaks with his enemies in the gate.

128

家庭蒙恩,世代得福

Blessed Is Everyone Who Fears the LORD

2

你可以享用雙手勞碌所得,凡事順利,你真是有福!

You shall eat the fruit of the labor of your hands;you shall be blessed, and it shall be well with you.

3

你的妻子在你的內室,好像多結果子的葡萄樹;你的兒女圍繞你的桌子,好像小橄欖樹。

Your wife will be like a fruitful vinewithin your house;your children will be like olive shootsaround your table.

4

確實,敬畏耶和華的人,就會這樣蒙福!

Behold, thus shall the man be blessedwho fears the LORD.

5

願耶和華從錫安賜福給你,願你在有生之日都看見耶路撒冷的繁榮!

The LORD bless you from Zion!May you see the prosperity of Jerusalemall the days of your life!

願你看見你兒女的兒女!願平安歸於以色列!

May you see your children's children!Peace be upon Israel!

敵人苦害,耶和華顯公義

They Have Afflicted Me from My Youth

A Song of Ascents.

1

“自我幼年以來,敵人多次苦害我”—以色列要說:

“Greatly have they afflicted me from my youth”—let Israel now say—

2

“自我幼年以來,敵人多次苦害我,卻沒有勝過我。

“Greatly have they afflicted me from my youth,yet they have not prevailed against me.

3

他們好像犁田的人,犁在我的背上,犁出長長的溝;

The plowers plowed upon my back;they made long their furrows.”

4

但耶和華是公義的,他砍斷了惡人的繩索。”

The LORD is righteous;he has cut the cords of the wicked.

5

願所有恨惡錫安的人,都蒙羞退後。

May all who hate Zionbe put to shame and turned backward!

6

願他們像屋頂上的草,還沒長大,就枯乾了。

Let them be like the grass on the housetops,which withers before it grows up,

7

收割的人抓不夠一把,捆禾的人摟不滿一懷。

with which the reaper does not fill his handnor the binder of sheaves his arms,

8

路過的人也不說:“願耶和華所賜的福臨到你們!我們奉耶和華的名祝福你們!”

nor do those who pass by say,“The blessing of the LORD be upon you!We bless you in the name of the LORD!”

130

深處呼求,等候救贖

My Soul Waits for the Lord

Out of the depths I cry to you, O LORD!

2

主啊,求你垂聽我的聲音,願你的耳朵留心聽我懇求的聲音!

O Lord, hear my voice!Let your ears be attentiveto the voice of my pleas for mercy!

3

耶和華啊,如果你記錄罪惡,主啊,誰還能站立得住?

If you, O LORD, should mark iniquities,O Lord, who could stand?

4

但你有赦免之恩,為要使人敬畏你。

But with you there is forgiveness,that you may be feared.

5

我等候耶和華,我的心等候他,我仰望他的話。

I wait for the LORD, my soul waits,and in his word I hope;

6

我的心等候主,更甚於守夜者等候天亮,更甚於守夜者等候天亮。

my soul waits for the Lordmore than watchmen for the morning,more than watchmen for the morning.

7

以色列啊,你當仰望耶和華!因為耶和華有忠誠之愛,也有豐盛的救贖!

O Israel, hope in the LORD!For with the LORD there is steadfast love,and with him is plentiful redemption.

8

他要救贖以色列脫離一切的罪惡。

And he will redeem Israelfrom all his iniquities.

信賴耶和華,像孩子安臥母懷

I Have Calmed and Quieted My Soul

大衛的上行之歌。

A Song of Ascents. Of David.

1

耶和華啊,我的心不驕傲,我的眼不自高;重大和超過我能力的事,我都不敢去做!

O LORD, my heart is not lifted up;my eyes are not raised too high;I do not occupy myself with thingstoo great and too marvelous for me.

2

我讓我的心平靜安穩,像已斷奶的孩子在母親懷中;我的心在我裡面,好像已斷奶的孩子。

But I have calmed and quieted my soul,like a weaned child with its mother;like a weaned child is my soul within me.

3

以色列啊,你當仰望耶和華,從現在直到永遠!

O Israel, hope in the LORDfrom this time forth and forevermore.

132
詩篇 132
Psalm 132

求耶和華記得大衛建殿的苦心

The LORD Has Chosen Zion

A Song of Ascents.

1

耶和華啊,求你記得大衛,記得他的一片苦心!

Remember, O LORD, in David's favor,all the hardships he endured,

2

他怎樣向耶和華起誓,向雅各的大能者許願:

how he swore to the LORDand vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob,

3

“我決不進我的帳篷,決不上我的床榻,

“I will not enter my houseor get into my bed,

4

決不允許我的眼睛睡覺,也不允許我的眼皮打盹,

I will not give sleep to my eyesor slumber to my eyelids,

5

直到我為耶和華找到地方,為雅各的大能者找到居所。”

until I find a place for the LORD,a dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob.”

6

我們聽說約櫃在以法他;我們在雅珥的田野找到了它。

Behold, we heard of it in Ephrathah;we found it in the fields of Jaar.

7

我們要進入耶和華的居所,在他的腳凳前下拜。

“Let us go to his dwelling place;let us worship at his footstool!”

8

耶和華啊,求你起來,與你大能的約櫃同進安歇之所!

Arise, O LORD, and go to your resting place,you and the ark of your might.

9

願你的祭司們披上公義,願那些對你忠誠的人歡呼!

Let your priests be clothed with righteousness,and let your saints shout for joy.

10

求你因你僕人大衛的緣故,不要轉臉不理你的受膏者。

For the sake of your servant David,do not turn away the face of your anointed one.

11

耶和華以信實向大衛起誓,絕不反悔:“我要從你的後裔中,立一位坐在你的寶座上。

The LORD swore to David a sure oathfrom which he will not turn back:“One of the sons of your bodyI will set on your throne.

12

如果你的子孫守我的約,以及我教導他們的法度,他們的子孫就可以永遠坐在你的寶座上。”

If your sons keep my covenantand my testimonies that I shall teach them,their sons also forevershall sit on your throne.”

13

要知道,耶和華揀選錫安,喜歡以這地方為自己的居所:

For the LORD has chosen Zion;he has desired it for his dwelling place:

14

“這是我永遠安歇之所;我要住在這裡,因為我喜歡這地方。

“This is my resting place forever;here I will dwell, for I have desired it.

15

我要賜福,使這地方的倉稟充實,讓其中的窮人飽享食物!

I will abundantly bless her provisions;I will satisfy her poor with bread.

16

我要使錫安的祭司們披上救恩,使那裡忠誠的人高聲歡呼!

Her priests I will clothe with salvation,and her saints will shout for joy.

17

我要在那裡使大衛的角成長,我要為我的受膏者安設明燈!

There I will make a horn to sprout for David;I have prepared a lamp for my anointed.

18

我要使他的仇敵都披上羞辱,但他的冠冕將在頭上發光!”

His enemies I will clothe with shame,but on him his crown will shine.”

133

大衛的上行之歌。

A Song of Ascents. Of David.

1

看哪,弟兄們和睦相處,多麼美善,多麼美好!

Behold, how good and pleasant it iswhen brothers dwell in unity!

2

這就像那上好的油,澆在亞倫的頭上,流到他的鬍鬚,又流到他的衣領;

It is like the precious oil on the head,running down on the beard,on the beard of Aaron,running down on the collar of his robes!

3

又好像黑門的甘露,降在錫安的群山;因為在那裡有耶和華命定的福,就是永遠的生命。

It is like the dew of Hermon,which falls on the mountains of Zion!For there the LORD has commanded the blessing,life forevermore.

134

Psalm 135

讚美耶和華揀選以色列

Your Name, O LORD, Endures Forever

1–2

你們要讚美耶和華!你們要讚美耶和華的名!耶和華的僕人們,你們侍立在耶和華的殿中,在我們 神的殿的院子裡,你們要讚美他!

1Praise the LORD!Praise the name of the LORD,give praise, O servants of the LORD,

2who stand in the house of the LORD,in the courts of the house of our God!

3

你們要讚美耶和華,因耶和華實在美善!你們要歌頌他的名,因他的名真是美好!

Praise the LORD, for the LORD is good;sing to his name, for it is pleasant!

4

因耶和華揀選雅各歸他自己,揀選以色列作他特有的珍貴產業。

For the LORD has chosen Jacob for himself,Israel as his own possession.

5

我知道耶和華真偉大,我們的主在萬神之上。

For I know that the LORD is great,and that our Lord is above all gods.

6

在天上、在地上、在海中、在一切的深淵,耶和華喜歡甚麼,就做甚麼。

Whatever the LORD pleases, he does,in heaven and on earth,in the seas and all deeps.

7

他使烏雲從地極上升,發出閃電隨雨而來,從他的庫房中吹出風來。

He it is who makes the clouds rise at the end of the earth,who makes lightnings for the rainand brings forth the wind from his storehouses.

8

他擊殺埃及頭生的,從人直到牲畜。

He it was who struck down the firstborn of Egypt,both of man and of beast;

9

埃及啊,他在你們當中施展神蹟奇能,對付法老和他所有臣僕!

who in your midst, O Egypt,sent signs and wondersagainst Pharaoh and all his servants;

10

他擊殺多國的民,殺戮強悍的君王,

who struck down many nationsand killed mighty kings,

11

就是亞摩利王西宏、巴珊王俄革,以及迦南所有的王國;

Sihon, king of the Amorites,and Og, king of Bashan,and all the kingdoms of Canaan,

12

他把他們的地賜給他的子民以色列作為產業。

and gave their land as a heritage,a heritage to his people Israel.

13

耶和華啊,你的名要存到永遠!耶和華啊,你的名號萬代長存!

Your name, O LORD, endures forever,your renown, O LORD, throughout all ages.

14

因為,耶和華要為他的子民申冤,要憐憫他的僕人們。

For the LORD will vindicate his peopleand have compassion on his servants.

15

列國的偶像是銀的、金的,是人手所造的;

The idols of the nations are silver and gold,the work of human hands.

16

有嘴巴,卻不能說話;有眼睛,卻不能看;

They have mouths, but do not speak;they have eyes, but do not see;

17

有耳朵,卻不能聽;口中也沒有氣息。

they have ears, but do not hear,nor is there any breath in their mouths.

18

造偶像的人要和偶像一樣,凡倚靠它們的人也都如此。

Those who make them become like them,so do all who trust in them!

19

以色列家啊,你們要稱頌耶和華!亞倫家啊,你們要稱頌耶和華!

O house of Israel, bless the LORD!O house of Aaron, bless the LORD!

20

利未家啊,你們要稱頌耶和華!敬畏耶和華的人啊,你們要稱頌耶和華!

O house of Levi, bless the LORD!You who fear the LORD, bless the LORD!

Blessed be the LORD from Zion,he who dwells in Jerusalem!Praise the LORD!

詩篇 137
Psalm 137

異域哀歌,追想錫安

How Shall We Sing the LORD's Song?

1

在巴比倫河畔,我們坐在那裡,一想起錫安就哭了。

By the waters of Babylon,there we sat down and wept,when we remembered Zion.

2

在河畔的楊樹上,我們掛起豎琴。

On the willows therewe hung up our lyres.

3

因為在那裡,擄掠我們的人要我們唱歌,苦害我們的人要取樂,說:“為我們唱一首錫安的歌吧!”

For there our captorsrequired of us songs,and our tormentors, mirth, saying,“Sing us one of the songs of Zion!”

4

我們怎能在異域唱耶和華的歌呢?

How shall we sing the LORD's songin a foreign land?

5

耶路撒冷啊,如果我忘記你,情願我的右手忘記技巧!

If I forget you, O Jerusalem,let my right hand forget its skill!

6

如果我不記得你,如果我不看重耶路撒冷過於我最大的喜樂,情願我的舌頭黏住上顎!

Let my tongue stick to the roof of my mouth,if I do not remember you,if I do not set Jerusalemabove my highest joy!

7

耶和華啊,求你追究伊東人!當耶路撒冷遭難的日子,他們竟說:“拆毀!拆毀!直拆到根基!”

Remember, O LORD, against the Edomitesthe day of Jerusalem,how they said, “Lay it bare, lay it bare,down to its foundations!”

8

將要被滅的女兒巴比倫啊,像你惡待我們那樣報復你的人,真是有福!

O daughter of Babylon, doomed to be destroyed,blessed shall he be who repays youwith what you have done to us!

9

抓住你的嬰孩,摔碎在巖石上的那人,真是有福!

Blessed shall he be who takes your little onesand dashes them against the rock!

138
詩篇 138
Psalm 138

歌頌耶和華的忠誠之愛和信實

Give Thanks to the LORD

大衛的詩。

Of David.

1

我要全心讚美你,在眾神面前歌頌你!

I give you thanks, O LORD, with my whole heart;before the gods I sing your praise;

2

我要向你的聖殿下拜,因你的忠誠之愛和信實而讚美你的名,因為你使你的名和你的應許顯為大,超越一切之上。

I bow down toward your holy temple and give thanks to your name for your steadfast love and yourfaithfulness,for you have exalted above all thingsyour name and your word.

3

我呼求的日子,你應允了我;你使我剛強,心裡有力量。

On the day I called, you answered me;my strength of soul you increased.

4

耶和華啊,願地上的君王都讚美你,因為他們聽見了你口中的言語。

All the kings of the earth shall give you thanks, O LORD,for they have heard the words of your mouth,

5

願他們歌頌耶和華的作為,因為耶和華大有榮耀。

and they shall sing of the ways of the LORD,for great is the glory of the LORD.

6

耶和華雖然崇高,卻垂顧卑微的人;而驕傲的人,他從遠處就認出。

For though the LORD is high, he regards the lowly,but the haughty he knows from afar.

7

即使我身處患難中,你也會保全我命;我仇敵的怒氣,你伸手抵擋,你的右手也要拯救我。

Though I walk in the midst of trouble,you preserve my life;you stretch out your hand against the wrath of my enemies,and your right hand delivers me.

8

耶和華將為我止息禍患。耶和華啊,你的忠誠之愛永遠長存!你親手所造的,求你不要撇棄!

The LORD will fulfill his purpose for me;your steadfast love, O LORD, endures forever.Do not forsake the work of your hands.

139
詩篇 139
Psalm 139

求耶和華鑒察,眷佑引導

Search Me, O God, and Know My Heart

大衛的詩,交給詩班長。

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.

1

耶和華啊,你已經鑒察我,認識我!

O LORD, you have searched me and known me!

2

我坐下,我起來,你都知道;你從遠處就明白我的意念。

You know when I sit down and when I rise up;you discern my thoughts from afar.

3

我行路,我躺臥,你都細察;我的一切行為,你都熟悉。

You search out my path and my lying downand are acquainted with all my ways.

4

甚至,我的舌頭還未發一言,耶和華啊,你已經完全知道!

Even before a word is on my tongue,behold, O LORD, you know it altogether.

5

你在我前後環繞我,把手按在我的頭上。

You hem me in, behind and before,and lay your hand upon me.

6

這樣的知識奇妙,過於我所能理解;高超,非我所能企及。

Such knowledge is too wonderful for me;it is high; I cannot attain it.

7

我可往哪裡去,躲避你的靈?我能往哪裡逃,躲避你的面?

Where shall I go from your Spirit?Or where shall I flee from your presence?

8

如果我升到天上,你在那裡;如果我到陰間下榻,你也在那裡。

If I ascend to heaven, you are there!If I make my bed in Sheol, you are there!

9

如果我展開黎明的翅膀,飛到海的盡頭居住,

If I take the wings of the morningand dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,

10

即使在那裡,你的手仍會引導我,你的右手要扶持我。

even there your hand shall lead me,and your right hand shall hold me.

11

如果我說:“黑暗必定可以遮蔽我,我周圍的亮光必定變成黑夜。”

If I say, “Surely the darkness shall cover me,and the light about me be night,”

12

但對你而言,黑暗不算黑暗,黑夜亮如白晝,黑暗和光明都是一樣。

even the darkness is not dark to you;the night is bright as the day,for darkness is as light with you.

13

是你創造我的肺腑;我在母腹中,你已塑造我。

For you formed my inward parts;you knitted me together in my mother's womb.

14

我要讚美你,因我受造奇妙可畏;你的作為奇妙,我深深知道。

I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.Wonderful are your works;my soul knows it very well.

15

我在隱密處被造,在地的深處被塑造;那時,我的骨頭不能向你隱藏。

My frame was not hidden from you,when I was being made in secret,intricately woven in the depths of the earth.

16

我未成形的身體,你的眼睛早已看見;你為我所定的日子,我還沒度過一日,全都已寫在你的冊上。

Your eyes saw my unformed substance;in your book were written, every one of them,the days that were formed for me,when as yet there was none of them.

17

神啊,你的意念對我多麼珍貴,總數何等浩瀚!

How precious to me are your thoughts, O God!How vast is the sum of them!

18

如果我數算,它們比海沙還多;我睡醒之時,仍然與你同在。

If I would count them, they are more than the sand.I awake, and I am still with you.

19

神啊,但願你殺戮惡人!你們這些嗜血之徒,離開我去吧!

Oh that you would slay the wicked, O God!O men of blood, depart from me!

20

因為,他們借用你的名圖謀詭詐,你的仇敵利用你的名弄虛作假。

They speak against you with malicious intent;your enemies take your name in vain!

21

耶和華啊,恨惡你的人,我恨惡他們!起來攻擊你的人,我厭惡他們!

Do I not hate those who hate you, O LORD?And do I not loathe those who rise up against you?

22

我極度恨惡他們,把他們視為我的仇敵。

I hate them with complete hatred;I count them my enemies.

23

神啊,求你鑒察我,知道我的心思;試驗我,知道我的憂慮;

Search me, O God, and know my heart!Try me and know my thoughts!

24

看看我裡面有沒有惡行,引導我走永恆的道路。

And see if there be any grievous way in me,and lead me in the way everlasting!

140
詩篇 140
Psalm 140

求耶和華保護免受惡人和暴徒所害

Deliver Me, O LORD, from Evil Men

大衛的詩,交給詩班長。

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.

1

耶和華啊,求你搭救我脫離兇惡的人,保護我脫離殘暴的人!

Deliver me, O LORD, from evil men;preserve me from violent men,

2

他們心中圖謀惡事,整天挑啟爭端。

who plan evil things in their heartand stir up wars continually.

3

他們使舌頭銳利如蛇,嘴裡有毒蛇的毒液。(細拉)

They make their tongue sharp as a serpent's,and under their lips is the venom of asps. Selah

4

耶和華啊,求你守護我脫離惡人的手,求你保護我脫離殘暴的人!他們企圖把我推跌。

Guard me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked;preserve me from violent men,who have planned to trip up my feet.

5

驕傲的人為我暗設羅網,在路旁張開繩索作網,設下圈套陷害我。(細拉)

The arrogant have hidden a trap for me,and with cords they have spread a net;beside the way they have set snares for me. Selah

6

我對耶和華說:“你是我的 神。”耶和華啊,求你張開耳朵聽我懇求的聲音!

I say to the LORD, You are my God;give ear to the voice of my pleas for mercy, O LORD!

7

主耶和華,我大能的救主啊,在爭戰的日子,你護庇了我的頭!

O LORD, my Lord, the strength of my salvation,you have covered my head in the day of battle.

8

耶和華啊,求你不要讓惡人稱心如意,不要讓他們的計謀得逞,免得他們自高自大!(細拉)

Grant not, O LORD, the desires of the wicked;do not further their evil plot, or they will be exalted! Selah

9

至於那些圍困我的人,願他們的頭被自己嘴唇招致的禍患遮蔽!

As for the head of those who surround me,let the mischief of their lips overwhelm them!

10

願炭火落在他們頭上,願他們被丟在深坑裡,不能再起來!

Let burning coals fall upon them!Let them be cast into fire,into miry pits, no more to rise!

11

願搬弄是非的人,在地上站立不住;願災禍獵取殘暴的人,將他打倒!

Let not the slanderer be established in the land;let evil hunt down the violent man speedily!

12

我知道耶和華會為貧苦的人申冤,為窮人主持公道。

I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted,and will execute justice for the needy.

13

義人將要讚美你的名,正直人要住在你面前。

Surely the righteous shall give thanks to your name;the upright shall dwell in your presence.

141
詩篇 141
Psalm 141

獻上晚祭,衷心祈禱

Give Ear to My Voice

大衛的詩。

A Psalm of David.

1

耶和華啊,我呼求你,求你快來幫助我!我呼求你的時候,求你張開耳朵聽我的聲音!

O LORD, I call upon you; hasten to me!Give ear to my voice when I call to you!

2

願我的禱告,好像香呈獻在你面前!願我雙手高舉,好像獻晚祭!

Let my prayer be counted as incense before you,and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice!

3

耶和華啊,求你管制我的口,把守我嘴唇的門!

Set a guard, O LORD, over my mouth;keep watch over the door of my lips!

4

求你不要讓我的心偏向惡事,免得我與作惡的人同流合污!求你也不讓我吃他們的美食!

Do not let my heart incline to any evil,to busy myself with wicked deedsin company with men who work iniquity,and let me not eat of their delicacies!

5

願義人擊打我,這是出於忠誠之愛!願他責備我,這是頭上的膏油,我的頭不會拒絕!我仍要為惡人的惡行祈禱。

Let a righteous man strike me—it is a kindness;let him rebuke me—it is oil for my head;let my head not refuse it.Yet my prayer is continually against their evil deeds.

6

他們的眾首領被拋下山崖,他們要聽我的話,因我的話語甘美。

When their judges are thrown over the cliff,then they shall hear my words, for they are pleasant.

7

我們的骨頭散落在陰間的門口,好像耕田鋤地時掘起的土塊。

As when one plows and breaks up the earth,so shall our bones be scattered at the mouth of Sheol.

8

主耶和華啊,我的雙眼仰望你!我投靠你,求你不要讓我喪命!

But my eyes are toward you, O GOD, my Lord;in you I seek refuge; leave me not defenseless!

9

求你守護我脫離惡人為我所設的羅網,以及作惡之人的圈套!

Keep me from the trap that they have laid for meand from the snares of evildoers!

10

願惡人都落在自己的羅網裡,我卻可以安然逃脫!

Let the wicked fall into their own nets,while I pass by safely.

142
詩篇 142
Psalm 142

落難之時,懇求耶和華眷顧

You Are My Refuge

大衛的訓誨詩,是他在洞裡的祈禱。

A Maskil of David, when he was in the cave. A Prayer.

1

我大聲向耶和華呼求,我高聲向耶和華懇求。

With my voice I cry out to the LORD;with my voice I plead for mercy to the LORD.

2

我在他面前傾吐我的苦情,在他面前述說我的患難。

I pour out my complaint before him;I tell my trouble before him.

3

我心靈憔悴的時候,你關懷我的道路;在我所行的路上,敵人暗設羅網害我。

When my spirit faints within me,you know my way!In the path where I walkthey have hidden a trap for me.

4

求你看我右邊,沒有人關心我;我沒有避難所,沒有人照顧我。

Look to the right and see:there is none who takes notice of me;no refuge remains to me;no one cares for my soul.

5

耶和華啊,我向你哀求!我說:“你是我的避難所,是我在活人之地的產業。”

I cry to you, O LORD;I say, “You are my refuge,my portion in the land of the living.”

6

求你留心聽我的呼求,因為我落到極卑微的地步!求你搭救我脫離追逼我的人,因為他們太強大,我對付不了!

Attend to my cry,for I am brought very low!Deliver me from my persecutors,for they are too strong for me!

7

求你救我出監牢,好讓我讚美你的名!義人將要環繞我,因為你以厚恩待我。

Bring me out of prison,that I may give thanks to your name!The righteous will surround me,for you will deal bountifully with me.

143
詩篇 143
Psalm 143

心靈憔悴,望耶和華拯救

My Soul Thirsts for You

大衛的詩。

A Psalm of David.

1

耶和華啊,求你聽我的禱告,張開耳朵聽我的懇求,按你的信實和公義應允我!

Hear my prayer, O LORD;give ear to my pleas for mercy!In your faithfulness answer me, in your righteousness!

2

求你不要審判你的僕人!因為在你面前,活著的沒有一個義人。

Enter not into judgment with your servant,for no one living is righteous before you.

3

仇敵迫害我,把我壓碎在地,使我住在暗黑之處,好像死了很久的人。

For the enemy has pursued my soul;he has crushed my life to the ground;he has made me sit in darkness like those long dead.

4

因此,我心靈憔悴,我的心在我裡面驚懼。

Therefore my spirit faints within me;my heart within me is appalled.

5

我追想古時之日,默誦你一切作為,述說你手的工作。

I remember the days of old;I meditate on all that you have done;I ponder the work of your hands.

6

我向你伸出雙手,我的心渴想你,如同乾旱之地渴望甘霖。(細拉)

I stretch out my hands to you;my soul thirsts for you like a parched land. Selah

7

耶和華啊,求你趕快應允我,因為我的靈已經衰竭!求你不要掩面不理我,免得我像那些下到墓穴的人一樣!

Answer me quickly, O LORD!My spirit fails!Hide not your face from me,lest I be like those who go down to the pit.

8

求你使我清晨得聞你的忠誠之愛,因為我倚靠你!求你指示我當走的路,因為我的心仰望你!

Let me hear in the morning of your steadfast love,for in you I trust.Make me know the way I should go,for to you I lift up my soul.

9

耶和華啊,求你搭救我脫離我的仇敵,我要往你那裡尋求庇護!

Deliver me from my enemies, O LORD!I have fled to you for refuge!

10

求你教導我遵行你的旨意,因為你是我的 神!願你美善的靈引導我到平坦之地!

Teach me to do your will,for you are my God!Let your good Spirit lead meon level ground!

11

耶和華啊,求你為你名的緣故使我存活!求你按你的公義領我出患難!

For your name's sake, O LORD, preserve my life!In your righteousness bring my soul out of trouble!

12

求你因你的忠誠之愛剷除我的仇敵,殲滅所有苦害我的人,因為我是你的僕人!

And in your steadfast love you will cut off my enemies,and you will destroy all the adversaries of my soul,for I am your servant.

詩篇 144
Psalm 144

拯救之 神,有福之民

My Rock and My Fortress

大衛的詩。

Of David.

1

耶和華,我的石山,配受稱頌!他教導我的雙手作戰,訓練我的十指打仗。

Blessed be the LORD, my rock,who trains my hands for war,and my fingers for battle;

2

他是我忠誠的保護、我的藏身處、我避難的高處、我的救主、我所投靠的盾牌;他使我的人民服在我以下。

he is my steadfast love and my fortress,my stronghold and my deliverer,my shield and he in whom I take refuge,who subdues peoples under me.

3

耶和華啊,人算甚麼,你竟關懷他!世人算甚麼,你竟顧念他!

O LORD, what is man that you regard him,or the son of man that you think of him?

4

人只不過像一口氣,他的年日如影消逝。

Man is like a breath;his days are like a passing shadow.

5

耶和華啊,你使天下垂,親自降臨!求你觸摸群山,使山冒煙!

Bow your heavens, O LORD, and come down!Touch the mountains so that they smoke!

6

求你發出閃電,使仇敵四散!射出你的箭,使他們潰亂!

Flash forth the lightning and scatter them;send out your arrows and rout them!

7

求你從高處伸手,救拔我,搭救我脫離大水,脫離外族人的手!

Stretch out your hand from on high;rescue me and deliver me from the many waters,from the hand of foreigners,

8

他們的口說謊話,他們舉起右手起假誓。

whose mouths speak liesand whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood.

9

神啊,我要向你唱新歌,用十弦琴向你歌頌!

I will sing a new song to you, O God;upon a ten-stringed harp I will play to you,

10

你賜救恩給眾君王,你使僕人大衛脫離奪命的刀。

who gives victory to kings,who rescues David his servant from the cruel sword.

11

求你救拔我,救我脫離外族人的手!他們的口說謊話,他們舉起右手起假誓。

Rescue me and deliver mefrom the hand of foreigners,whose mouths speak liesand whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood.

12

願我們的兒子,自幼就像小樹茁壯!願我們的女兒,好像殿四角的柱子,按宮殿的樣式鑿成!

May our sons in their youthbe like plants full grown,our daughters like corner pillarscut for the structure of a palace;

13

願我們的穀倉盈滿,各種糧食不缺!願我們的羊群,在郊野滋生千萬!

may our granaries be full,providing all kinds of produce;may our sheep bring forth thousandsand ten thousands in our fields;

14

願我們的牲口滿馱貨物,城牆沒有缺口,城裡無人出征,街上無人哭號!

may our cattle be heavy with young,suffering no mishap or failure in bearing;may there be no cry of distress in our streets!

15

得享這樣景況的人民,真是有福!耶和華做他們的 神,這人民真是有福!

Blessed are the people to whom such blessings fall!Blessed are the people whose God is the LORD!

On the glorious splendor of your majesty,and on your wondrous works, I will meditate.

6

他們要講論你可畏之事的大能,我也要宣揚你的偉大。

They shall speak of the might of your awesome deeds,and I will declare your greatness.

7

他們要傳揚你美善的名號,他們要歡唱你的公義。

They shall pour forth the fame of your abundant goodnessand shall sing aloud of your righteousness.

8

耶和華有恩典,有憐憫,不輕易發怒,並且有浩大的忠誠之愛。

The LORD is gracious and merciful,slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.

9

耶和華善待萬有,他的慈悲護庇他所造的一切。

The LORD is good to all,and his mercy is over all that he has made.

10

耶和華啊,你所造的萬有都要讚美你,對你忠誠的人都要稱頌你!

All your works shall give thanks to you, O LORD,and all your saints shall bless you!

11

講說你王國的榮耀,談論你大能的作為,

They shall speak of the glory of your kingdomand tell of your power,

12

好使世人知道你大能的作為,以及你王國威嚴的尊榮。

to make known to the children of man your mighty deeds,and the glorious splendor of your kingdom.

13

你的王國是永遠的王國,你的王權要存到萬代。

Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,and your dominion endures throughout all generations.[The LORD is faithful in all his wordsand kind in all his works.]

14

所有跌倒的人,耶和華都扶持;所有受壓的人,他將他們扶起。

The LORD upholds all who are fallingand raises up all who are bowed down.

15

萬有都舉目仰望你,你按時給他們糧食。

The eyes of all look to you,and you give them their food in due season.

16

你張開手,使一切有生命的都得飽足。

You open your hand;you satisfy the desire of every living thing.

17

耶和華在他一切所行的事上,全然公義;在他一切所做的事上,都有忠誠之愛。

The LORD is righteous in all his waysand kind in all his works.

18

所有呼求耶和華的人,所有誠心呼求他的人,耶和華都與他們親近。

The LORD is near to all who call on him,to all who call on him in truth.

19

敬畏他的人,他會成全他們的心願;他也會聽他們的呼求,拯救他們。

He fulfills the desire of those who fear him;he also hears their cry and saves them.

20

耶和華守護所有愛他的人,卻要滅絕所有的惡人。

The LORD preserves all who love him,but all the wicked he will destroy.

21

我的口要說出讚美耶和華的話!願所有的人都稱頌他的聖名,直到永永遠遠!

My mouth will speak the praise of the LORD,and let all flesh bless his holy name forever and ever.

2

我一生都要讚美耶和華,只要我還活著,我就要歌頌我的 神!

I will praise the LORD as long as I live;I will sing praises to my God while I have my being.

3

你們不要倚靠權貴,不要倚靠世人,他們不能拯救你們。

Put not your trust in princes,in a son of man, in whom there is no salvation.

4

他們的氣一斷,就回歸塵土;他們的謀算,當天就幻滅了。

When his breath departs, he returns to the earth;on that very day his plans perish.

5

以雅各的 神為自己的幫助,以耶和華他的 神為盼望的人,真是有福!

Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob,whose hope is in the LORD his God,

6

耶和華造天、地、海和其中的萬物,他持守信實,直到永遠。

who made heaven and earth,the sea, and all that is in them,who keeps faith forever;

7

他為受欺凌的人申冤,賜糧食給飢餓的人。耶和華釋放被囚的人,

who executes justice for the oppressed,who gives food to the hungry.The LORD sets the prisoners free;

8

耶和華開了盲人的眼睛,耶和華扶起被欺壓的人,耶和華喜愛義人。

the LORD opens the eyes of the blind.The LORD lifts up those who are bowed down;the LORD loves the righteous.

9

耶和華守護寄居者,扶持孤兒寡婦,使惡人的行動挫敗。

The LORD watches over the sojourners;he upholds the widow and the fatherless,but the way of the wicked he brings to ruin.

10

耶和華要為王,直到永遠!錫安啊,你的 神要為王,直到萬代!你們要讚美耶和華!

The LORD will reign forever,your God, O Zion, to all generations.Praise the LORD!

147
詩篇 147
Psalm 147

聖城蒙福,受邀頌讚

He Heals the Brokenhearted

1

你們要讚美耶和華!歌頌我們的 神,是多麼美善!讚美的話,是多麼美好合宜!

Praise the LORD!For it is good to sing praises to our God;for it is pleasant, and a song of praise is fitting.

2

耶和華要重建耶路撒冷,招聚流亡的以色列人。

The LORD builds up Jerusalem;he gathers the outcasts of Israel.

3

他醫好心靈破碎者,包紮他們的傷口。

He heals the brokenheartedand binds up their wounds.

4

他數點星辰的數目,一一給它們起名。

He determines the number of the stars;he gives to all of them their names.

5

我們的主真偉大,大有能力,他的智慧無法測度。

Great is our Lord, and abundant in power;his understanding is beyond measure.

6

耶和華扶持謙卑的人,卻把惡人打倒在地。

The LORD lifts up the humble;he casts the wicked to the ground.

7

你們要以讚美向耶和華歌唱,用琴向我們的 神歌頌!

Sing to the LORD with thanksgiving;make melody to our God on the lyre!

8

他以烏雲遮蔽天空,為大地預備雨水,使群山長滿青草。

He covers the heavens with clouds;he prepares rain for the earth;he makes grass grow on the hills.

9

他賜食物給走獸,以及啼叫的小烏鴉。

He gives to the beasts their food,and to the young ravens that cry.

10

他喜歡的,不是強大的戰馬;他喜悅的,不是勇猛的戰士。

His delight is not in the strength of the horse,nor his pleasure in the legs of a man,

11

耶和華喜悅敬畏他的人,喜悅仰望他忠誠之愛的人。

but the LORD takes pleasure in those who fear him,in those who hope in his steadfast love.

12

耶路撒冷啊,你要頌讚耶和華!錫安啊,你要讚美你的 神!

Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem!Praise your God, O Zion!

13

因為他鞏固了你城門的門閂,賜福給在你當中的兒女。

For he strengthens the bars of your gates;he blesses your children within you.

14

他使你四境平安,用上好的麥子使你飽足。

He makes peace in your borders;he fills you with the finest of the wheat.

15

他向地發出命令,他的話迅速頒行。

He sends out his command to the earth;his word runs swiftly.

16

他降下羊毛般的大雪,撒下灰燼似的寒霜;

He gives snow like wool;he scatters hoarfrost like ashes.

17

他拋下冰雹如碎石,面對他發出的嚴寒,誰能抵受得住?

He hurls down his crystals of ice like crumbs;who can stand before his cold?

18

他發出命令,冰雪就融化;他使風刮起,水就流動。

He sends out his word, and melts them;he makes his wind blow and the waters flow.

19

他把自己的話語傳給雅各,把他的規定律例傳給以色列。

He declares his word to Jacob,his statutes and rules to Israel.

20

他從來沒有這樣對待其他各國;他的律例,他們從未知道。你們要讚美耶和華!

He has not dealt thus with any other nation;they do not know his rules.Praise the LORD!

願他們用舞蹈讚美他的名,擊鼓彈琴歌頌他!

Let them praise his name with dancing,making melody to him with tambourine and lyre!

4

因為耶和華喜悅自己的子民,他以救恩為謙卑人的妝飾。

For the LORD takes pleasure in his people;he adorns the humble with salvation.

願忠誠的人在榮耀中歡樂!願他們在床上也歡呼!

Let the godly exult in glory;let them sing for joy on their beds.
