聖詠集 Psalms
1達味金詩,交與樂官。調寄「莫要毀壞」。 1 For the leader. Do not destroy. A miktam of David.
2判官們!你們是否真正出言公平?世人們!你們是否照理審斷案情﹖ 2 Do you indeed pronounce justice, O gods; do you judge mortals fairly?
3可惜你們一心只想為非作惡,在地上你們的雙手只行宰割。 3No, you freely engage in crime; your hands dispense violence to the earth.
4作惡者一離母胎,即背離正路;說謊者一出母腹,即走入歧途。 4The wicked have been corrupt since birth; liars from the womb, they have gone astray.
5他們滿懷的毒素有如蛇毒;他們又像塞住耳朵的聾蝮, 5 Their poison is like the poison of a snake, like that of a serpent stopping its ears,
6不聽巫士的音語,不隨靈妙的妖術。 6So as not to hear the voice of the charmer who casts such cunning spells.
7天主,求你把他們口中的牙齒搗爛,上主,求你把少壯獅子的牙床打斷。 7O God, smash the teeth in their mouths; break the jaw-teeth of these lions, LORD!
8願他們有如奔湍的急水流去,願他們有如被踏的青草枯萎; 8Make them vanish like water flowing away; trodden down, let them wither like grass.
9願他們有如蝸牛爬過溶化消失,又如流產的胎兒不得親見天日! 9 Let them dissolve like a snail that oozes away, like an untimely birth that never sees the sun.
10他們的鍋在未覺到荊火以前,願狂怒的烈風將他們全吹散! 10Suddenly, like brambles or thistles, have the whirlwind snatch them away.
11義人看見大仇巳報時,必然喜樂,他要在惡人的血中洗自己的腳。 11Then the just shall rejoice to see the vengeance and bathe their feet in the blood of the wicked.
12如此,眾人都說:「義人果然獲得了好的報酬,世上確有執行審判的天主!」 12Then it will be said: "Truly there is a reward for the just; there is a God who is judge on earth!"
