詩篇 第 9 篇

¹（大衛的詩，交與伶長。調用慕拉便。）我要一心稱謝耶和華；我要傳揚你一切奇妙的作為。I will praise thee, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works.

²我要因你歡喜快樂；至高者啊，我要歌頌你的名！I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to thy name, O thou most High.

³我的仇敵轉身退去的時候，他們一見你的面就跌倒滅亡。When mine enemies are turned back, they shall fall and perish at thy presence.

⁴因你已經為我伸冤，為我辨屈；你坐在寶座上，按公義審判。For thou hast maintained my right and my cause; thou satest in the throne judging right.

⁵你曾斥責外邦，你曾滅絕惡人；你曾塗抹他們的名，直到永永遠遠。Thou hast rebuked the heathen, thou hast destroyed the wicked, thou hast put out their name for ever and ever.

⁶仇敵到了盡頭；他們被毀壞，直到永遠。你拆毀他們的城邑，連他們的名號都歸於無有。O thou enemy, destructions are come to a perpetual end: and thou hast destroyed cities; their memorial is perished with them.

⁷惟耶和華坐著為王，直到永遠；他已經為審判設擺他的寶座。But the LORD shall endure for ever: he hath prepared his throne for judgment.

⁸他要按公義審判世界，按正直判斷萬民。And he shall judge the world in righteousness, he shall minister judgment to the people in uprightness.

⁹耶和華又要給受欺壓的人作高臺，在患難的時候作高臺。The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble.

¹⁰耶和華啊，認識你名的人要倚靠你，因你沒有離棄尋求你的人。And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.

¹¹應當歌頌居錫安的耶和華，將他所行的傳揚在眾民中。Sing praises to the LORD, which dwelleth in Zion: declare among the people his doings.

¹²因為那追討流人血之罪的─他記念受屈的人，不忘記困苦人的哀求。When he maketh inquisition for blood, he remembereth them: he forgetteth not the cry of the humble.

¹³耶和華啊，你是從死門把我提拔起來的；求你憐恤我，看那恨我的人所加給我的苦難，Have mercy upon me, O LORD; consider my trouble which I suffer of them that hate me, thou that liftest me up from the gates of death:

¹⁴好叫我述說你一切的美德；我必在錫安城（原文是女子）的門因你的救恩歡樂。That I may shew forth all thy praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion: I will rejoice in thy salvation.

¹⁵外邦人陷在自己所掘的坑中；他們的腳在自己暗設的網羅裡纏住了。The heathen are sunk down in the pit that they made: in the net which they hid is their own foot taken.

¹⁶耶和華已將自己顯明了，他已施行審判；惡人被自己手所做的纏住了（或譯：他叫惡人被自己手所做的累住了）。（細拉）The LORD is known by the judgment which he executeth: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah.

¹⁷惡人，就是忘記神的外邦人，都必歸到陰間。The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.

¹⁸窮乏人必不永久被忘；困苦人的指望必不永遠落空。For the needy shall not alway be forgotten: the expectation of the poor shall not perish for ever.

¹⁹耶和華啊，求你起來，不容人得勝！願外邦人在你面前受審判！Arise, O LORD; let not man prevail: let the heathen be judged in thy sight.

²⁰耶和華啊，求你使外邦人恐懼；願他們知道自己不過是人。（細拉）Put them in fear, O LORD: that the nations may know themselves to be but men. Selah.
