1 〔大衛的詩。〕耶和華阿、我要求告你．我的磐石阿、不要向我緘默．倘若你向我閉口、我就如將死的人一樣。
Of David. To you I call, O LORD my Rock; do not turn a deaf ear to me. For if you remain silent, I will be like those who have gone down to the pit. |
2 我呼求你、向你至聖所舉手的時候、求你垂聽我懇求的聲音。
Hear my cry for mercy as I call to you for help, as I lift up my hands toward your Most Holy Place. |
3 不要把我和惡人、並作孽的、一同除掉．他們與鄰舍說和平話、心裡卻是奸惡。
Do not drag me away with the wicked, with those who do evil, who speak cordially with their neighbors but harbor malice in their hearts. |
4 願你按著他們所作的、並他們所行的惡事待他們．願你照著他們手所作的待他們．將他們所應得的報應加給他們。
Repay them for their deeds and for their evil work; repay them for what their hands have done and bring back upon them what they deserve. |
5 他們既然不留心耶和華所行的、和他手所作的、他就必毀壞他們、不建立他們。
Since they show no regard for the works of the LORD and what his hands have done, he will tear them down and never build them up again. |
6 耶和華是應當稱頌的、因為他聽了我懇求的聲音。
Praise be to the LORD, for he has heard my cry for mercy. |
7 耶和華是我的力量、是我的盾牌．我心裡倚靠他、就得幫助．所以我心中歡樂．我必用詩歌頌讚他。
The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am helped. My heart leaps for joy and I will give thanks to him in song. |
8 耶和華是他百姓的力量、又是他受膏者得救的保障。
The LORD is the strength of his people, a fortress of salvation for his anointed one. |
9 求你拯救你的百姓、賜福給你的產業、牧養他們、扶持他們、直到永遠。
Save your people and bless your inheritance; be their shepherd and carry them forever. |
