聖詠集 Psalms
1達味聖詠,交與樂官。 1 For the leader. A psalm of David.
2上主,求你救拔我脫離兇惡的人,上主,求你保護我擺脫強暴的人! 2Deliver me, LORD, from the wicked; preserve me from the violent,
3他們心中策劃惡謀,他們終日挑撥爭鬥; 3From those who plan evil in their hearts, who stir up conflicts every day,
4他們磨快自己的舌尖,有如蛇蝮,在他們的雙唇的下面,含有蛇毒。(休止) 4 Who sharpen their tongues like serpents, venom of asps upon their lips. Selah
5上主,求你拯救我脫離兇惡的人,上主,求你保護我擺脫強暴的人,因他們企圖要我腳步滑倒。 5Keep me, LORD, from the clutches of the wicked; preserve me from the violent, who plot to trip me up.
6驕傲人給我暗暗設下網羅,張起繩索作為圈套,設下陷阱等我路過。(休止) 6 The arrogant have set a trap for me; villains have spread a net, laid snares for me by the wayside. Selah
7我求上主說:你是我的天主;上主,求你聽我哀禱的苦訴! 7I say to the LORD: You are my God; listen, LORD, to the words of my prayer.
8上主天主,你是我有力的救助,在作戰時,請你掩護我的頭顱! 8My revered LORD, my strong helper, my helmet on the day of battle.
9上主,請不要順隨惡人的奢欲,上主,請不要完成他們的計謀。(休止) 9LORD, do not grant the desires of the wicked; do not let their plots succeed. Selah
10願那些顯露頭角而圍困我的人,出於他們口唇的詛咒,反歸己身。 10Around me they raise their proud heads; may the mischief they threaten overwhelm them.
11願火炭降落在他們的身上,將他們拋入深坑免再高昂。 11May God rain burning coals upon them, cast them into the grave never more to rise.
12播弄是非的人,不得在世久存,災禍會突然使強暴的人被擒。 12Slanderers will not survive on earth; evil will quickly entrap the violent.
13我確知上主必為受壓迫的人伸冤,也必為貧窮的人主持正義的判斷。 13For I know the LORD will secure justice for the needy, their rights for the poor.
14義人必定將你的聖名頌讚,善人必定居住在你的面前。 14Then the just will give thanks to your name; the upright will dwell in your presence.
