詩篇 116
1 我對上主愛慕傾心，因祂俯聽我的禱聲；
I love Jehovah, because he listens to my voice, and my cries for mercy.
2 在我呼籲祂的那日，祂向我側祂的聖耳。
Because he has turned his ear to me, therefore I will call on him as long as I live.
The cords of death surrounded me, the pains of Sheol got a hold of me. I found trouble and sorrow. (Sheol h7585)
4 我呼求了上主的聖名，上主，求您救我的性命。
Then I called on the name of Jehovah: "Jehovah, I beg you, deliver my soul."
5 上主富有憐憫和正義，我們的天主仁愛無比；
Jehovah is Gracious and righteous. Yes, our God is merciful.
6 上主，保護誠樸的人，我若軟弱，祂必救助。
Jehovah preserves the simple. I was brought low, and he saved me.
7 我的靈魂，您回到您的安息，因為上主實在是厚待了您。
Return to your rest, my soul, for Jehovah has dealt bountifully with you.
8 因為祂救拔我的靈魂脫免死亡，不使我的眼睛流淚，不使我的腳跌傷。
For you have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.
9 我要在人的地域，在上主的面前行走。
I will walk before Jehovah in the land of the living.
10 雖然說我已痛苦萬分，但是我仍然抱有信心。
I believed, therefore I said, "I am greatly afflicted."
11 我在彷徨中曾說：眾人都虛詐不誠。
I said in my haste, "All men are liars."
12 我要怎樣報謝上主，謝祂賜給我的一切恩佑？
What will I give to Jehovah for all his benefits toward me?
13 我要舉起救恩的杯，我要呼顅上主的名，
I will take the cup of salvation, and call on the name of Jehovah.
14 我要在眾百姓面前，向上主還我的誓願。
I will pay my vows to Jehovah, yes, in the presence of all his people.
15 上主的聖者的去世，在上主的眼中十分珍貴。
Precious in the sight of Jehovah is the death of his faithful ones.
16 我的上主！我是您的僕役，您僕役是您婢女的兒子；您將我的鎖鏈給我開釋，
Jehovah, truly I am your servant. I am your servant, the son of your handmaid. You have freed me from my chains.
17 我要給您奉獻讚頌之祭，我要呼號上主的名字。
I will offer to you the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call on the name of Jehovah.
18 我要在眾百姓面前，向上主還我的誓願，
I will pay my vows to Jehovah, yes, in the presence of all his people,
19 要在上主聖殿的庭院，耶路撒冷! 即在您中間。
in the courts of Jehovah's house, in the midst of you, Jerusalem. Praise JAH.
