诗篇 38
1 (大卫的记念诗)耶和华阿,求你不要在怒中责备我。不要在烈怒中惩罚我。
A psalm of David. A petition. O LORD, do not rebuke me in your anger or discipline me in your wrath.
2 因为你的箭射入我身,你的手压住我。
For your arrows have pierced me, and your hand has come down upon me.
3 因你的恼怒,我的肉无一完全。因我的罪过,我的骨头也不安宁。
Because of your wrath there is no health in my body; my bones have no soundness because of my sin.
4 我的罪孽高过我的头,如同重担叫我担当不起。
My guilt has overwhelmed me like a burden too heavy to bear.
5 因我的愚昧,我的伤发臭流脓。
My wounds fester and are loathsome because of my sinful folly.
6 我疼痛,大大拳曲,终日哀痛。
I am bowed down and brought very low; all day long I go about mourning.
7 我满腰是火。我的肉无一完全。
My back is filled with searing pain; there is no health in my body.
8 我被压伤,身体疲倦。因心里不安,我就唉哼。
I am feeble and utterly crushed; I groan in anguish of heart.
9 主阿,我的心愿都在你面前。我的叹息不向你隐瞒。
All my longings lie open before you, O Lord; my sighing is not hidden from you.
10 我心跳动,我力衰微,连我眼中的光,也没有了。
My heart pounds, my strength fails me; even the light has gone from my eyes.
11 我的良朋密友,因我的灾病,都躲在旁边站着。我的亲戚本家,也远远地站立。
My friends and companions avoid me because of my wounds; my neighbors stay far away.
12 那寻索我命的,设下网罗。那想要害我的,口出恶言,终日思想诡计。
Those who seek my life set their traps, those who would harm me talk of my ruin; all day long they plot deception.
13 但我如聋子不听,像哑巴不开口。
I am like a deaf man, who cannot hear, like a mute, who cannot open his mouth;
14 我如不听见的人,口中没有回话。
I have become like a man who does not hear, whose mouth can offer no reply.
15 耶和华阿,我仰望你。主我的神阿,你必应允我。
I wait for you, O LORD; you will answer, O Lord my God.
16 我曾说,恐怕他们向我夸耀。我失脚的时候,他们向我夸大。
For I said, "Do not let them gloat or exalt themselves over me when my foot slips."
17 我几乎跌倒,我的痛苦常在我面前。
For I am about to fall, and my pain is ever with me.
18 我要承认我的罪孽。我要因我的罪忧愁。
I confess my iniquity; I am troubled by my sin.
19 但我的仇敌又活泼又强壮。无理恨我的增多了。
Many are those who are my vigorous enemies; those who hate me without reason are numerous.
20 以恶报善的与我作对,因我是追求良善。
Those who repay my good with evil slander me when I pursue what is good.
21 耶和华阿,求你不要撇弃我。我的神阿,求你不要远离我。
O LORD, do not forsake me; be not far from me, O my God.
22 拯救我的主阿,求你快快帮助我。
Come quickly to help me, O Lord my Savior.
