Psalms |
| 1阿撒夫詩歌。上主，全能者天主，出令傳召下土，由太陽的出處直到太陽的落處。 |
1A psalm of Asaph. The LORD, the God of gods, has spoken and summoned the earth from the rising of the sun to its setting. |
| 2天主由美麗絕倫的熙雍，發出光明， |
2From Zion God shines forth. perfect in beauty. |
| 3我們的天主來臨，絕不會默默無聲；吞噬的烈火在他前面開道，旋轉的風暴在他四周怒號。 |
3Our God comes and will not be silent! Devouring fire precedes, storming fiercely round about. |
| 4他呼喚了上乾下坤，要審判自己的人民： |
4God summons the heavens above and the earth to the judgment of his people: |
| 5「你們應當給我聚集起虔敬我的人，就是那以犧牲與我訂立盟約的人。」 |
5"Gather my faithful ones before me, those who made a covenant with me by sacrifice." |
| 6諸天要宣示天主的公正，因為他要親自審判世人。（休止） |
6The heavens proclaim divine justice, for God alone is the judge. Selah |
| 7「請聽，我的子民，我要發出言語，以色列，我向你警戒告訴，我是天主，我是你的天主。 |
7"Listen, my people, I will speak; Israel, I will testify against you; God, your God, am I. |
| 8我並不因你的祭獻而責備你，因為我面前常有你的全燔祭。 |
8Not for your sacrifices do I rebuke you, nor for your holocausts, set before me daily. |
| 9我無須從你的家裏將牛犢攫取，也無須由你的圈裏把山羊捉捕； |
9I need no bullock from your house, no goats from your fold. |
| 10因為，森林裏的種種生物，全歸於我，山陵上的千萬走獸，都屬於我； |
10For every animal of the forest is mine, beasts by the thousands on my mountains. |
| 11天空中的一切飛鳥，我都認識，田野間的所有動物，我全知悉。 |
11I know every bird of the heavens; the creatures of the field belong to me. |
| 12如果我饑餓，我不必向你告訴，因宇宙和其中一切盡屬我有。 |
12Were I hungry, I would not tell you, for mine is the world and all that fills it. |
| 13難道我吃牛犢的肉塊，或者我喝山羊的鮮血？ |
13Do I eat the flesh of bulls or drink the blood of goats? |
| 14為此你該向天主奉獻頌謝祭，你又該向至高者還你的願誓。 |
14Offer praise as your sacrifice to God; fulfill your vows to the Most High. |
| 15並在困厄的時日，呼號我，我必拯救你，你要光榮我。」 |
15Then call on me in time of distress; I will rescue you, and you shall honor me." |
| 16天主卻對惡人說：你怎麼膽敢傳述我的誡命，你的口怎敢朗誦我的法令？ |
16But to the wicked God says: "Why do you recite my commandments and profess my covenant with your lips? |
| 17你豈不是惱恨規矩，將我的話置諸腦後？ |
17You hate discipline; you cast my words behind you! |
| 18你遇見了盜賊，便與他同僚，與犯姦淫的人，就同流合夥； |
18When you see thieves, you befriend them; with adulterers you throw in your lot. |
| 19你的口出言不善，你的舌造謠欺騙； |
19You give your mouth free rein for evil; you harness your tongue to deceit. |
| 20不停地毀謗你的兄弟，常污辱你母親的兒子。 |
20You sit maligning your own kin, slandering the child of your own mother. |
| 21你既作了這些，我豈能緘口不言？難道你竟以為我真能與你一般？我要責斥你，將一切放在你眼前。 |
21When you do these things should I be silent? Or do you think that I am like you? I accuse you, I lay the charge before you. |
| 22忘記天主的人們！你們要徹底覺悟，免得我撕裂你們時，沒有人來搶救。 |
22"Understand this, you who forget God, lest I attack you with no one to rescue. |
| 23奉獻頌謝祭的人，就是給我奉獻光榮讚頌，行為正直的人，我要使他享見天主的救恩。 |
23Those who offer praise as a sacrifice honor me; to the obedient I will show the salvation of God." |
