詩篇 105
1 【上主向先民顯的奇蹟】請眾感謝上主，呼號祂的聖名，請眾在萬民中，傳揚祂的聖名。
O give thanks unto the LORD, call upon His name; make known His doings among the peoples.
2 請眾歌頌祂，詠讚祂，傳述祂的奇工妙化。
Sing unto Him, sing praises unto Him; speak ye of all His marvellous works.
3 請您們以祂的聖名為光榮，願尋求上主的人樂滿心中。
Glory ye in His holy name; let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD.
4 請眾尋求上主和祂的德能，要時常不斷追求祂的儀容。
Seek ye the LORD and His strength; seek His face continually.
5 請您們記念祂所行的奇蹟，祂的異事和祂口中的判詞。
Remember His marvellous works that He hath done, His wonders, and the judgments of His mouth;
6 天主的僕人亞巴郎的後裔，上主揀選的雅各伯的兒子！
O ye seed of Abraham His servant, ye children of Jacob, His chosen ones.
7 祂是上主，是我們的天主，祂的統治遍及普世各處。
He is the LORD our God; His judgments are in all the earth.
8 祂永遠懷念著自己的盟約，直到萬代不忘自己的許諾；
He hath remembered His covenant for ever, the word which He commanded to a thousand generations;
9 就是向亞巴郎所立的盟約，向依撒格所起的誓諾，
The covenant which He made with Abraham, and His oath unto Isaac;
10 為雅各伯立為不移的規條，向以色列立為永遠的盟約，
And He established it unto Jacob for a statute, to Israel for an everlasting covenant;
11 說：我必將客納罕地賜給您，作您們產業的一分子。
Saying: 'Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance.'
12 當他們在那裏僑居時，寥寥無幾而人數極桸。
When they were but a few men in number. Yea, very few, and sojourners in it,
13 從這一族系遷移到另一族系，從這一國家飄流到另一地域。
And when they went about from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people,
14 祂不但不讓人把他們壓迫，且為了他們還把眾王責斥，
He suffered no man to do them wrong, yea, for their sake He reproved kings:
15 說：您們決不可觸犯我的受傅者，您們切不可把我的先知傷害！
'Touch not Mine anointed ones, and do My prophets no harm.'
16 以後祂使飢荒籠罩那地，斷絕了食糧的任何供給。
And He called a famine upon the land; He broke the whole staff of bread.
17 在他們以前祂將一人遣去，就是那被出賣為奴隸的若瑟。
He sent a man before them; Joseph was sold for a servant;
18 人以銬鐐扣他的雙腳，他的頸項也帶上了鐵鎖，
His feet they hurt with fetters, his person was laid in iron;
19 直到他所講的那預言實現，上主的話才在他身上應驗。
Until the time that his word came to pass, the word of the LORD tested him.
20 君王遂派人釋放了他，眾民的首長解救了他。
The king sent and loosed him; even the ruler of the peoples, and set him free.
21 且立他為王家的宰相，掌管一切皇產的侯王，
He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all his possessions;
22 讓他隨意指導通國的王侯，以其智謀教訓通國的長老。
To bind his princes at his pleasure, and teach his elders wisdom.
23 從此以色列進入了埃及，雅各伯也就在含邦作客。
Israel also came into Egypt; and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.
24 上主使祂的百姓昌旺，比他們的仇敵便強壯。
And He increased His people greatly, and made them too mighty for their adversaries.
25 祂轉變他們的心，仇恨祂的百姓，讓他們陰險殘酷對待祂的僕人。
He turned their heart to hate His people, to deal craftily with His servants.
26 祂打發祂的僕人梅瑟和所揀選的亞郎，
He sent Moses His servant, and Aaron whom He had chosen.
27 叫二人對他們將奇蹟和異事行於含邦。
They wrought among them His manifold signs, and wonders in the land of Ham.
28 上主命降黑暗，立時天昏地暗；然而埃及人卻反抗祂的聖言。
He sent darkness, and it was dark; and they rebelled not against His word.
29 使他們的水都變成血，將他們的魚類全都殺滅。
He turned their waters into blood, and slew their fish.
30 蝦蟆在他們的土內蕃生，跳進了他們眾王的內宮。
Their land swarmed with frogs, in the chambers of their kings.
31 祂一發令，蒼蠅便成群飛來，蚊蚋也在他們的各地徘徊，
He spoke, and there came swarms of flies, and gnats in all their borders.
32 代昝時雨，為他們降下冰雹，在他們全國各地雷電閃爍，
He gave them hail for rain, and flaming fire in their land.
33 打壞他們的葡萄和無花果樹，又擊倒了他們國內的樹木。
He smote their vines also and their fig-trees; and broke the trees of their borders.
34 祂一癹命令蝗虫飛遍，蚱蜢的數目，無法計算，
He spoke, and the locust came, and the canker-worm without number,
35 吃光他們地裏所有的青草，吞盡他們田間所有的百果。
And did eat up every herb in their land, and did eat up the fruit of their ground.
36 祂打擊境內所有的頭胎，將強壯的長子全部殺害。
He smote also all the first-born in their land, the first-fruits of all their strength.
37 祂領出滿載金銀的以色列，王支派中沒有一個人殘缺。
And He brought them forth with silver and gold; and there was none that stumbled among His tribes.
38 以色列出走，埃及人無不觀愉， 因為那實在叫他們戰兢恐懼。
Egypt was glad when they departed; for the fear of them had fallen upon them.
39 祂展佈雲彩，用以掩護遮陰，祂樹立火柱，為在夜間照明。
He spread a cloud for a screen; and fire to give light in the night.
40 他們一懇求，祂就送來鵪鶉，用天降的食糧，飽飫了他們。
They asked, and He brought quails, and gave them in plenty the bread of heaven.
41 祂闢開了岩石，使水湧出，在沙漠中好像江河流注。
He opened the rock, and waters gushed out; they ran, a river in the dry places.
42 因為祂沒有把祂神聖的許諾遺忘，並且也常懷念著祂的僕人亞巴郎。
For He remembered His holy word unto Abraham His servant;
43 祂引百姓歡樂地離去，祂率領選民欣然出走。
And He brought forth His people with joy, His chosen ones with singing.
44 給劃分了異民的領土，使他們佔領了外人的財富，
And He gave them the lands of the nations, and they took the labour of the peoples in possession;
45 為叫他們遵行祂的誡命，格守祂的命令。阿肋路亞。
That they might keep His statutes, and observe His laws. Hallelujah.
