聖詠集 Psalms
1達味詩歌,交與樂官。 1 For the leader. A psalm of David.
2眷顧貧窮人的人,真是有福,患難時日,他必蒙上主救助。 2 Happy those concerned for the lowly and poor; when misfortune strikes, the LORD delivers them.
3上主必保護他,賜他生存,在世上蒙福,決不將他交給他的仇敵而任敵所欲。 3The LORD keeps and preserves them, makes them happy in the land, and does not betray them to their enemies.
4他呻吟床榻,上主給他支援,他患病時,必使他轉危為安。 4The LORD sustains them on their sickbed, allays the malady when they are ill.
5我曾哀求你:「上主,求你憐憫我,」「求你治癒我,因為我得罪了你。」 5Once I prayed, "LORD, have mercy on me; heal me, I have sinned against you.
6我的仇敵反而惡言辱罵我說:「他何時死,他的名字幾時泯滅?」 6My enemies say the worst of me: 'When will that one die and be forgotten?'
7前來探訪我的人,只以虛言相待,其實是心懷惡意,出去便說出來。 7When people come to visit me, they speak without sincerity. Their hearts store up malice; they leave and spread their vicious lies.
8恨我的人,個個竊竊私議,咒我遭殃生疾: 8My foes all whisper against me; they imagine the worst about me:
9「願他身患惡疾!願他一病不起!」 9I have a deadly disease, they say; I will never rise from my sickbed.
10連我素來信賴的知心友好,吃過我飯的人,也舉腳踢我。 10 Even the friend who had my trust, who shared my table, has scorned me.
11上主,求你可憐我,使我病除,為使我能對他們加以復仇。 11 But you, LORD, have mercy and raise me up that I may repay them as they deserve."
12我以此作為你真愛我的記號:就是不讓我的敵人向我誇耀; 12By this I know you are pleased with me, that my enemy no longer jeers at me.
13你時常保持我無災無難,使我永遠站在你的面前。 13For my integrity you have supported me and let me stand in your presence forever.
14願上主,以色列天主,受讚頌,自永遠直到永遠,阿們,阿們! 14 Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, from all eternity and forever. Amen. Amen.
