诗篇

第 56 章

1. （非利士人在迦特拿住大卫。那时他作这金诗，交与伶长，调用远方无声鸽）神阿，求你怜悯我，因为人要把我吞了，终日攻击欺压我。
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. 我的仇敌终日要把我吞了。因逞骄傲攻击我的人甚多。
My slanderers pursue me all day long; many are attacking me in their pride.
3. 我惧怕的时候要倚靠你。
When I am afraid, I will trust in you.
4. 我倚靠神。我要赞美他的话。我倚靠神，必不惧怕。血气之辈能把我怎么样呢？
In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I will not be afraid. What can mortal man do to me?
5. 他们终日颠倒我的话。他们一切的心思，都是要害我。
All day long they twist my words; they are always plotting to harm me.
6. 他们聚集，埋伏窥探我的脚踪。等候要害我的命。
They conspire, they lurk, they watch my steps, eager to take my life.
7. 他们岂能因罪孽逃脱吗？神阿，求你在怒中使众民堕落。
On no account let them escape; in your anger, O God, bring down the nations.
8. 我几次流离，你都记数。求你把我眼泪装在你的皮袋里。这不都记在你册子上吗？
Record my lament; list my tears on your scroll--are they not in your record?
9. 我呼求的日子，我的仇敌都要转身退后。神帮助我，这是我所知道的。
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。我要赞美他的话。我倚靠耶和华。我要赞美他的话。
In God, whose word I praise, in the LORD, whose word I praise--
11. 我倚靠神，必不惧怕。人能把我怎么样呢？
in God I trust; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?
12. 神阿，我向你所许的愿在我身上。我要将感谢祭献给你。
I am under vows to you, O God; I will present my thank offerings to you.
13. 因为你救我的命脱离死亡。你岂不是救护我的脚不跌倒，使我在生命光中行在神面前吗？
For you have delivered me from death and my feet from stumbling, that I may walk before God in the light of life.
