Psalms |
| 1達味有感於本雅明族人古士的話，向上主唱的流離之歌。 |
1 A plaintive song of David, which he sang to the LORD concerning Cush, the Benjaminite. |
| 2上主，我的天主！我一心投奔你；求你助我逃脫一切追逐我的人，求你救拔我； |
2LORD my God, in you I take refuge; rescue me; save me from all who pursue me, |
| 3免得有人像獅子一般撕裂我時，無人搭救我。 |
3Lest they maul me like lions, tear me to pieces with none to save. |
| 4上主！如果我真作了這事，我主！在我手中就真有罪！ |
4 LORD my God, if I am at fault in this, if there is guilt on my hands, |
| 5我若真加害過我的友好，或無故把我的仇敵劫掠； |
5If I have repaid my friend with evil-- I spared even those who hated me without cause-- |
| 6就讓敵人追逐我，擒獲我，把我的性命踐踏在污地，將我的光榮歸諸於泥灰。（休止） |
6Then let my enemy pursue and overtake me, trample my life to the ground, and leave me dishonored in the dust.Selah |
| 7上主，求你震怒奮起，前來克制我仇的暴慢。我的天主，求你醒起助我，施行你定的斷案。 |
7Rise up, LORD, in your anger; rise against the fury of my foes. Wake to judge as you have decreed. |
| 8願萬民聚齊環繞着你。願你回駕由高處鑒視。 |
8Have the assembly of the peoples gather about you; sit on your throne high above them, |
| 9上主，萬民的審判者！上主，請照我的正義，請按我的無罪，護衛我的權利。 |
9O LORD, judge of the nations. Grant me justice, LORD, for I am blameless, free of any guilt. |
| 10公義的天主！惟你洞察肺腑和人心，願惡人的毒害停止，求你堅固義人！ |
10Bring the malice of the wicked to an end; uphold the innocent, O God of justice, who tries hearts and minds. |
| 11天主是我的護盾，給心正的人助陣。 |
11A shield before me is God who saves the honest heart. |
| 12天主是公義的審判者，對怙惡的人終日怒嚇。 |
12God is a just judge, who rebukes in anger every day. |
| 13仇人雖然磨刀擦劍，開弓拉弦準備射箭； |
13If sinners do not repent, God sharpens his sword, strings and readies the bow, |
| 14那只是為自己預備死亡的武器，為自己製造帶火的箭矢。 |
14Prepares his deadly shafts, makes arrows blazing thunderbolts. |
| 15試看，他既孕惡懷毒，自然就要產生虛無， |
15Sinners conceive iniquity; pregnant with mischief, they give birth to failure. |
| 16他挖掘坑穴，擺佈陷阱，勢必落在自備的窖中。 |
16They open a hole and dig it deep, but fall into the pit they have dug. |
| 17他的兇惡必反轉到自己頭上，他的橫暴必降落在自己的頂上。 |
17Their mischief comes back upon themselves; their violence falls on their own heads. |
| 18我要稱謝上主的公道，歌頌至高上主的名號。 |
18I praise the justice of the LORD; I celebrate the name of the LORD Most High. |
