| 聖詠集 |
Psalms |
| 1上主，你是伸冤的天主，伸冤的天主，求你顯出！ |
1 LORD, avenging God, avenging God, shine forth! |
| 2審判大地的天主，請你起來！給驕傲人施以應得的禍災！ |
2Rise up, judge of the earth; give the proud what they deserve. |
| 3上主，惡人洋洋得意，要到何時？歹徒沾沾自喜，要到何時？ |
3How long, LORD, shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked glory? |
| 4他們大言不慚，要到何時？作惡的人自誇，要到何時？ |
4How long will they mouth haughty speeches, go on boasting, all these evildoers? |
| 5上主，他們蹂躪你的百姓，他們磨難你的子民， |
5They crush your people, LORD, torment your very own. |
| 6屠殺寡婦與旅客，將孤兒置於死地， |
6They kill the widow and alien; the fatherless they murder. |
| 7他們還說：上主看不見，雅各伯的天主決不管。 |
7They say, "The LORD does not see; the God of Jacob takes no notice." |
| 8民間的愚昧者！你們應該知悉，糊塗的人！你們何時才能明白？ |
8Understand, you stupid people! You fools, when will you be wise? |
| 9裝置耳朵的，難道自己已聽不着，製造眼睛的，難道自己看不到？ |
9Does the one who shaped the ear not hear? The one who formed the eye not see? |
| 10訓戒萬民者，難道自己不懲治，教導人類者，難道自己無知識？ |
10Does the one who guides nations not rebuke? The one who teaches humans not have knowledge? |
| 11上主認透人的思念，原來都是虛幻。 |
11The LORD does know human plans; they are only puffs of air. |
| 12上主，那些受你教訓的人，守你法律者是有福的人， |
12Happy those whom you guide, LORD, whom you teach by your instruction. |
| 13你叫他在患難時獲享安穩，直到給惡人們掘下了陷阱。 |
13You give them rest from evil days, while a pit is being dug for the wicked. |
| 14因為上主不拒絕自己的百姓，上主不遺棄自己的人民。 |
14You, LORD, will not forsake your people, nor abandon your very own. |
| 15原來公理必歸正義的人士，心地正直的人，必追求公理。 |
15Judgment shall again be just, and all the upright of heart will follow it. |
| 16誰肯奮起替我攻打行兇的人，誰肯站起替我抵抗作惡的人？ |
16Who will rise up for me against the wicked? Who will stand up for me against evildoers? |
| 17若不是上主扶助我，我的靈魂已歸冥所。 |
17If the LORD were not my help, I would long have been silent in the grave. |
| 18我正在想說：我的腳步快要滑倒。上主，你就以你的仁愛來扶助我。 |
18When I say, "My foot is slipping," your love, LORD, holds me up. |
| 19憂愁焦思雖然齊集我的心神，你的安慰卻舒暢了我的靈魂。 |
19When cares increase within me, your comfort gives me joy. |
| 20若有人冒充法律，製造苦惱，不義的法庭，豈能與你相好？ |
20Can unjust judges be your allies, those who create burdens in the name of law, |
| 21他們殘害義人的性命，判決無辜人的流血刑。 |
21Those who conspire against the just and condemn the innocent to death? |
| 22然而上主必定作我的堡壘，我的天主作我避難的磐石。 |
22No, the LORD is my secure height, my God, the rock where I find refuge, |
| 23他必以他們的罪過來報復他們；必要用他們的凶惡來消滅他們，上主我們的天主必要消滅他們。 |
23Who will turn back their evil upon them and destroy them for their wickedness. Surely the LORD our God will destroy them! |
