詩篇 第 69 篇

¹（大衛的詩，交與伶長。調用百合花。）神啊，求你救我！因為眾水要淹沒我。Save me, O God; for the waters are come in unto my soul.

²我陷在深淤泥中，沒有立腳之地；我到了深水中，大水漫過我身。I sink in deep mire, where there is no standing: I am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.

³我因呼求困乏，喉嚨發乾；我因等候神，眼睛失明。I am weary of my crying: my throat is dried: mine eyes fail while I wait for my God.

⁴無故恨我的，比我頭髮還多；無理與我為仇、要把我剪除的，甚為強盛。我沒有搶奪的，要叫我償還。They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of mine head: they that would destroy me, being mine enemies wrongfully, are mighty: then I restored that which I took not away.

⁵神啊，我的愚昧，你原知道；我的罪愆不能隱瞞。O God, thou knowest my foolishness; and my sins are not hid from thee.

⁶萬軍的主─耶和華啊，求你叫那等候你的，不要因我蒙羞！以色列的神啊，求你叫那尋求你的，不要因我受辱！Let not them that wait on thee, O Lord GOD of hosts, be ashamed for my sake: let not those that seek thee be confounded for my sake, O God of Israel.

⁷因我為你的緣故受了辱罵，滿面羞愧。Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; shame hath covered my face.

⁸我的弟兄看我為外路人；我的同胞看我為外邦人。I am become a stranger unto my brethren, and an alien unto my mother’s children.

⁹因我為你的殿心裡焦急，如同火燒，並且辱罵你人的辱罵都落在我身上。For the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.

¹⁰我哭泣，以禁食刻苦我心；這倒算為我的羞辱。When I wept, and chastened my soul with fasting, that was to my reproach.

¹¹我拿麻布當衣裳，就成了他們的笑談。I made sackcloth also my garment; and I became a proverb to them.

¹²坐在城門口的談論我；酒徒也以我為歌曲。They that sit in the gate speak against me; and I was the song of the drunkards.

¹³但我在悅納的時候向你─耶和華祈禱。神啊，求你按你豐盛的慈愛，憑你拯救的誠實應允我！But as for me, my prayer is unto thee, O LORD, in an acceptable time: O God, in the multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy salvation.

¹⁴求你搭救我出離淤泥，不叫我陷在其中；求你使我脫離那些恨我的人，使我出離深水。Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not sink: let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters.

¹⁵求你不容大水漫過我，不容深淵吞滅我，不容坑坎在我以上合口。Let not the waterflood overflow me, neither let the deep swallow me up, and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me.

¹⁶耶和華啊，求你應允我！因為你的慈愛本為美好；求你按你豐盛的慈悲回轉眷顧我！Hear me, O LORD; for thy lovingkindness is good: turn unto me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies.

¹⁷不要掩面不顧你的僕人；我是在急難之中，求你速速地應允我！And hide not thy face from thy servant; for I am in trouble: hear me speedily.

¹⁸求你親近我，救贖我！求你因我的仇敵把我贖回！Draw nigh unto my soul, and redeem it: deliver me because of mine enemies.

¹⁹你知道我受的辱罵、欺凌、羞辱；我的敵人都在你面前。Thou hast known my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonour: mine adversaries are all before thee.

²⁰辱罵傷破了我的心，我又滿了憂愁。我指望有人體恤，卻沒有一個；我指望有人安慰，卻找不著一個。Reproach hath broken my heart; and I am full of heaviness: and I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; and for comforters, but I found none.

²¹他們拿苦膽給我當食物；我渴了，他們拿醋給我喝。They gave me also gall for my meat; and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.

²²願他們的筵席在他們面前變為網羅，在他們平安的時候變為機檻。Let their table become a snare before them: and that which should have been for their welfare, let it become a trap.

²³願他們的眼睛昏矇，不得看見；願你使他們的腰常常戰抖。Let their eyes be darkened, that they see not; and make their loins continually to shake.

²⁴求你將你的惱恨倒在他們身上，叫你的烈怒追上他們。Pour out thine indignation upon them, and let thy wrathful anger take hold of them.

²⁵願他們的住處變為荒場；願他們的帳棚無人居住。Let their habitation be desolate; and let none dwell in their tents.

²⁶因為，你所擊打的，他們就逼迫；你所擊傷的，他們戲說他的愁苦。For they persecute him whom thou hast smitten; and they talk to the grief of those whom thou hast wounded.

²⁷願你在他們的罪上加罪，不容他們在你面前稱義。Add iniquity unto their iniquity: and let them not come into thy righteousness.

²⁸願他們從生命冊上被塗抹，不得記錄在義人之中。Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and not be written with the righteous.

²⁹但我是困苦憂傷的；神啊，願你的救恩將我安置在高處。But I am poor and sorrowful: let thy salvation, O God, set me up on high.

³⁰我要以詩歌讚美神的名，以感謝稱他為大！I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.

³¹這便叫耶和華喜悅，勝似獻牛，或是獻有角有蹄的公牛。This also shall please the LORD better than an ox or bullock that hath horns and hoofs.

³²謙卑的人看見了就喜樂；尋求神的人，願你們的心甦醒。The humble shall see this, and be glad: and your heart shall live that seek God.

³³因為耶和華聽了窮乏人，不藐視被囚的人。For the LORD heareth the poor, and despiseth not his prisoners.

³⁴願天和地、洋海和其中一切的動物都讚美他！Let the heaven and earth praise him, the seas, and every thing that moveth therein.

³⁵因為神要拯救錫安，建造猶大的城邑；他的民要在那裡居住，得以為業。For God will save Zion, and will build the cities of Judah: that they may dwell there, and have it in possession.

³⁶他僕人的後裔要承受為業；愛他名的人也要住在其中。The seed also of his servants shall inherit it: and they that love his name shall dwell therein.
