Psalms |
| 1則辣黑人厄堂的訓誨詩。 |
1 A maskil of Ethan the Ezrahite. |
| 2我要永永遠遠歌詠上主的恩寵，要世世代代親口稱揚你的忠誠。 |
2The promises of the LORD I will sing forever, proclaim your loyalty through all ages. |
| 3你原說過：「我的恩寵已永遠奠定！」就如你在天上確定了你的忠誠。 |
3 For you said, "My love is established forever; my loyalty will stand as long as the heavens. |
| 4「我同我揀選的人立了約契，向我的僕人達味起了盟誓， |
4I have made a covenant with my chosen one; I have sworn to David my servant: |
| 5我直到永遠鞏固你的後裔，世世代代將你的寶座建立。」（休止） |
5I will make your dynasty stand forever and establish your throne through all ages." Selah |
| 6上主，願蒼天稱讚你的奇事，聖者的集會讚美你的忠義！ |
6The heavens praise your marvels, LORD, your loyalty in the assembly of the holy ones. |
| 7在雲彩之中，誰可與上主相比，天主的眾子，誰能同上主相似？ |
7 Who in the skies ranks with the LORD? Who is like the LORD among the gods? |
| 8在聖者的集會中，天主令人驚恐，他偉大可怕，超過他四週的神聖。 |
8A God dreaded in the council of the holy ones, greater and more awesome than all who sit there! |
| 9上主萬軍的天主，有誰能夠相似你？上主，你是全能的，你的忠信環繞你。 |
9LORD, God of hosts, who is like you? Mighty LORD, your loyalty is always present. |
| 10你統治洶湧的海嘯，你平抑翻騰的波濤。 |
10You rule the raging sea; you still its swelling waves. |
| 11你曾踐踏辣哈布，好像踐踏屍體，你以大能的手臂驅散你的仇敵。 |
11 You crushed Rahab with a mortal blow; your strong arm scattered your foes. |
| 12高天是屬你的，厚土也是屬你的，寰宇及其中的一切是你奠定的。 |
12Yours are the heavens, yours the earth; you founded the world and everything in it. |
| 13你創造了南方，創造了北方，大博爾，赫爾孟因你而歡暢。 |
13 Zaphon and Amanus you created; Tabor and Hermon rejoice in your name. |
| 14你的臂膀孔武而有力，你雙手堅強，右手舉起。 |
14Mighty your arm, strong your hand, your right hand is ever exalted. |
| 15正義和公理是你寶座的基礎，仁愛和忠信在你的前面開路。 |
15Justice and judgment are the foundation of your throne; love and loyalty march before you. |
| 16會歡樂歌唱的百姓，的確有福，上主，他們在你慈顏光中行走， |
16Happy the people who know you, LORD, who walk in the radiance of your face. |
| 17他們常常因你的名而歡躍，你的正義使他們引以自豪。 |
17In your name they sing joyfully all the day; at your victory they raise the festal shout. |
| 18因為你是他們權勢的光明，因你慈惠，我們的威能提升。 |
18 You are their majestic strength; by your favor our horn is exalted. |
| 19因為在上主內有我們的庇護，以色列的聖者是我們的君主。 |
19Truly the LORD is our shield, the Holy One of Israel, our king! |
| 20你曾在異像中向你的聖者說：「我已經給那有能者加了冕，由百姓中將我所選者舉薦。 |
20Once you spoke in vision; to your faithful ones you said: "I have set a leader over the warriors; I have raised up a hero from the army. |
| 21我揀選達味做我的忠僕，也給他傅抹了聖油。 |
21I have chosen David, my servant; with my holy oil I have anointed him. |
| 22我的雙手必常扶持他，我的臂膀必常堅固他， |
22My hand will be with him; my arm will make him strong. |
| 23仇敵不能欺騙他，惡人不能壓伏他。 |
23No enemy shall outwit him, nor shall the wicked defeat him. |
| 24我要在他前擊破他的仇敵，凡仇恨他的人，我必要打擊。 |
24I will crush his foes before him, strike down those who hate him. |
| 25我的忠信與仁慈常與他共處，他的頭角因我的名而得高舉。 |
25My loyalty and love will be with him; through my name his horn will be exalted. |
| 26我使他的手伸到海上，使他的右手伸到河上。 |
26 I will set his hand upon the sea, his right hand upon the rivers. |
| 27他要稱讚我說：『你是我的大父，是我救恩的磐石，是我的天主。』 |
27He shall cry to me,'You are my father, my God, the Rock that brings me victory!' |
| 28我也要立定他為首生子，他高出世上所有的君主。 |
28 I myself make him firstborn, Most High over the kings of the earth. |
| 29我同他永遠保持我的慈愛，我同他立的約，永不得破壞， |
29Forever I will maintain my love for him; my covenant with him stands firm. |
| 30使他的後裔，永世不替，使他的寶位，與天日齊。 |
30I will establish his dynasty forever, his throne as the days of the heavens. |
| 31若他的子孫放棄我的法令，不照我的命令行， |
31If his descendants forsake my law, do not follow my decrees, |
| 32若是他們違犯了我的章程，不遵守我的誡命， |
32If they fail to observe my statutes, do not keep my commandments, |
| 33我必用棍杖懲罰他們的罪過，也必用鞭子責打他們的邪惡。 |
33I will punish their crime with a rod and their guilt with lashes. |
| 34但我不將我的慈愛撤退，我也不使我的忠誠作廢， |
34But I will not take my love from him, nor will I betray my bond of loyalty. |
| 35也不放棄我的盟約，也不改變我的許諾。 |
35I will not violate my covenant; the promise of my lips I will not alter. |
| 36我一次指我的聖善起誓，我也絕對不會欺騙達味。 |
36By my holiness I swore once for all: I will never be false to David. |
| 37他的後裔必定要永遠興隆，他的御座在我前，如日永恆； |
37 His dynasty will continue forever, his throne, like the sun before me. |
| 38又如月亮循環不停，做空中忠實的見證。」（休止） |
38Like the moon it will stand eternal, forever firm like the sky!" Selah |
| 39但是你已經拒絕和擯棄，對你的受傅者憤怒大起。 |
39But now you have rejected and spurned, been enraged at your anointed. |
| 40將你僕人的盟約撕毀，將他的冠冕拋擲於地。 |
40You renounced the covenant with your servant, defiled his crown in the dust. |
| 41蕩平了他所有的城垣，使他的堡壘化為荒原。 |
41You broke down all his defenses, left his strongholds in ruins. |
| 42凡過路的人都劫掠他，他為鄰人所嘲笑辱罵。 |
42All who pass through seize plunder; his neighbors deride him. |
| 43你高舉了他仇人的右手，使他的敵人們滿心歡愉。 |
43You have exalted the right hand of his foes, have gladdened all his enemies. |
| 44使他的刀刃遲鈍不利，上陣時使他不能站立； |
44You turned back his sharp sword, did not support him in battle. |
| 45使他的光輝消失滅跡，把他的寶座推翻於地。 |
45You brought to an end his splendor, hurled his throne to the ground. |
| 46縮短他青春的時日，要使他去蒙受羞恥。（休止） |
46You cut short the days of his youth, covered him with shame. Selah |
| 47上主，你不斷地隱避，要到何時，上主，你的怒火如焚，何時才熄？ |
47How long, LORD? Will you stay hidden forever? Must your wrath smolder like fire? |
| 48求你懷念我的性命何其短暫，你所創造的世人是多麼虛幻！ |
48Remember how brief is my life, how frail the race you created! |
| 49有那一個人能夠常生不死，有誰能自救於陰府的權勢？（休止） |
49What mortal can live and not see death? Who can escape the power of Sheol? Selah |
| 50吾主，你從前憑着你的忠義，向達味許的仁愛，今在哪裏？ |
50Where are your promises of old, Lord, the loyalty sworn to David? |
| 51上主，求你記念你僕人所受的恥辱。在我胸中所承擔異民的一切憎惡： |
51Remember, Lord, the insults to your servants, how I bear all the slanders of the nations. |
| 52就是你的那些反對者所加給你的恥辱，上主，他們也淩辱了你的受傅者的腳步。 |
52Your enemies, LORD, insult your anointed; they insult my every endeavor. |
| 53願上主永永遠遠受讚美！阿們，阿們！ |
53 Blessed be the LORD forever! Amen and amen! |
