詩篇

第 56 章

1. 〔非利士人在迦特拿住大衛.那時他作這金詩、交與伶長、調用遠方無聲鴿。〕 神阿、求你憐憫我、因為人要把我吞了、終日攻擊欺壓我。
For the director of music. To the tune of"A Dove on Distant Oaks." Of David. A miktam. When the Philistines had seized him in Gath. Be merciful to me, O God, for men hotly pursue me; all day long they press their attack.
2. 我的仇敵終日要把我吞了.因逞驕傲攻擊我的人甚多。
My slanderers pursue me all day long; many are attacking me in their pride.
3. 我懼怕的時候要倚靠你。
When I am afraid, I will trust in you.
4. 我倚靠 神、我要讚美他的話.我倚靠 神、必不懼怕.血氣之輩能把我怎麼樣呢。
In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I will not be afraid. What can mortal man do to me?
5. 他們終日顛倒我的話.他們一切的心思、都是要害我。
All day long they twist my words; they are always plotting to harm me.
6. 他們聚集、埋伏窺探我的腳蹤、等候要害我的命。
They conspire, they lurk, they watch my steps, eager to take my life.
7. 他們豈能因罪孽逃脫麼. 神阿、求你在怒中使眾民墮落。
On no account let them escape; in your anger, O God, bring down the nations.
8. 我幾次流離、你都記數.求你把我眼淚裝在你的皮袋裡.這不都記在你冊子上麼。
Record my lament; list my tears on your scroll--are they not in your record?
9. 我呼求的日子、我的仇敵都要轉身退後. 神幫助我、這是我所知道的。
Then my enemies will turn back when I call for help. By this I will know that God is for me.
10. 我倚靠 神.我要讚美他的話.我倚靠耶和華.我要讚美他的話.
In God, whose word I praise, in the LORD, whose word I praise--
11. 我倚靠 神、必不懼怕.人能把我怎麼樣呢。
in God I trust; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?
12.  神阿、我向你所許的願在我身上.我要將感謝祭獻給你。
I am under vows to you, O God; I will present my thank offerings to you.
13. 因為你救我的命脫離死亡.你豈不是救護我的腳不跌倒、使我在生命光中行在 神面前麼。
For you have delivered me from death and my feet from stumbling, that I may walk before God in the light of life.
