詩篇
CH. 5
1
〔大衛的詩、交與伶長、用吹的樂器。〕耶和華阿、求你留心聽我的言語、顧念我的心思。

For the director of music. For flutes. A psalm of David. Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my sighing.
2
我的王我的 神阿、求你垂聽我呼求的聲音.因為我向你祈禱。

Listen to my cry for help, my King and my God, for to you I pray.
3
耶和華阿、早晨你必聽我的聲音.早晨我必向你陳明我的心意、並要儆醒。

In the morning, O LORD, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait in expectation.
4
因為你不是喜悅惡事的 神.惡人不能與你同居。

You are not a God who takes pleasure in evil; with you the wicked cannot dwell.
5
狂傲人不能站在你眼前.凡作孽的、都是你所恨惡的。

The arrogant cannot stand in your presence; you hate all who do wrong.
6
說謊言的、你必滅絕.好流人血弄詭詐的、都為耶和華所憎惡。

You destroy those who tell lies; bloodthirsty and deceitful men the LORD abhors.
7
至於我、我必憑你豐盛的慈愛進入你的居所.我必存敬畏你的心向你的聖殿下拜。

But I, by your great mercy, will come into your house; in reverence will I bow down toward your holy temple.
8
耶和華阿、求你因我的仇敵、憑你的公義、引領我.使你的道路在我面前正直。

Lead me, O LORD, in your righteousness because of my enemies--make straight your way before me.
9
因為他們的口中沒有誠實.他們的心裡滿有邪惡.他們的喉嚨、是敞開的墳墓.他們用舌頭諂媚人。

Not a word from their mouth can be trusted; their heart is filled with destruction. Their throat is an open grave; with their tongue they speak deceit.
10
 神阿、求你定他們的罪。願他們因自己的計謀跌倒.願你在他們許多的過犯中、把他們逐出.因為他們背叛了你。

Declare them guilty, O God! Let their intrigues be their downfall. Banish them for their many sins, for they have rebelled against you.
11
凡投靠你的、願他們喜樂、時常歡呼、因為你護庇他們.又願那愛你名的人、都靠你歡欣。

But let all who take refuge in you be glad; let them ever sing for joy. Spread your protection over them, that those who love your name may rejoice in you.
12
因為你必賜福與義人.耶和華阿、你必用恩惠如同盾牌四面護衛他。

For surely, O LORD, you bless the righteous; you surround them with your favor as with a shield.
