詩篇 10
1 【求主隡除惡霸】上主，你為什麼站在遠處！在困苦之時竟隱藏不露？
Why, Jehovah, dost Thou stand at a distance? Thou dost hide in times of adversity,
2 惡人蠻橫地難為弱小的人，叫他陷於預設的陰謀之中。
Through the pride of the wicked, Is the poor inflamed, They are caught in devices that they devised.
3 惡人因隨心所欲而自慶，匪徒因輕慢上主而自幸；
Because the wicked hath boasted Of the desire of his soul, And a dishonest gainer he hath blessed, He hath despised Jehovah.
4 惡人心高氣傲說：他絕不會追究！也絕沒有天主！這就是他的企圖。
The wicked according to the height of his face, inquireth not. 'God is not!' [are] all his devices.
5 他的道路時時彎曲錯謬；常把你的懲罰拋諸腦後，對一切私仇常怒氣詛咒。
Pain do his ways at all times, On high [are] Thy judgments before him, All his adversaries — he puffeth at them.
6 心下自語：我永遠不會動搖！我永永遠遠不會遭受災禍！
He hath said in his heart, 'I am not moved,' To generation and generation not in evil.
7 他他滿口是欺詐與辱罵，舌下盡是惡毒與謊話。
Of oaths his mouth is full, And deceits, and fraud: Under his tongue [is] perverseness and iniquity,
8 他在村邊隱密處埋伏，他暗地裏要殺害無辜，他對不幸者窺伺注目，
He doth sit in an ambush of the villages, In secret places he doth slay the innocent. His eyes for the afflicted watch secretly,
9 他在暗處伺伏，有如獅子蹲在洞口，要把貧困的人，伺機刮搜，將貧困者拖入網中劫走。
He lieth in wait in a secret place, as a lion in a covert. He lieth in wait to catch the poor, He catcheth the poor, drawing him into his net.
10 他俯下身子，蹲伏在地下，不幸者便陷入他的爪牙；
He is bruised — he boweth down, Fallen by his mighty ones hath the afflicted.
11 心下自語說：天主忘了，祂掩了面，永不再看。
He said in his heart, 'God hath forgotten, He hath hid His face, He hath never seen.'
12 上主天主，求你起來將手舉起，不要把窮苦人忘記。
Arise, O Jehovah! O God, lift up Thy hand! Forget not the humble.
13 為何讓人們輕慢天主，心下自語，「祂絕不會追究？」
Wherefore hath the wicked despised God? He hath said in his heart, 'It is not required.'
14 其實你已看見欺壓與罪行，正考慮如何親手加以嚴懲；因此不幸的人向你投奔，唯有你是孤兒們的救星。
Thou hast seen, For Thou perverseness and anger beholdest; By giving into Thy hand, On Thee doth the afflicted leave [it], Of the fatherless Thou hast been an helper.
15 願你打斷罪犯與惡人的臂膊，報復他的罪孽直至不再發作。
Break the arm of the wicked and the evil, Seek out his wickedness, find none;
16 上主為王，直至於萬世無疆；野蠻人必由祂領域中喪亡。
Jehovah [is] king to the age, and for ever, The nations have perished out of His land!
17 上主，你垂允了謙卑者的心願，堅固他們的心靈，也側耳俯聽。
The desire of the humble Thou hast heard, O Jehovah. Thou preparest their heart; Thou causest Thine ear to attend,
18 護衛孤兒和受壓迫者的特權，使塵世的人不再施恐怖手段
To judge the fatherless and bruised: He addeth no more to oppress — man of the earth!
