詩篇 141
1 上主，我呼求您，請求速來救助我；上主，我呼求您，請您聽我的呼號。
A Psalm of David. I call upon You, O LORD; come quickly to me. Hear my voice when I call to You.
2 願我向您的祈禱，像馨香上升；願我的手高舉，如同晚祭的高騰。
May my prayer be set before You like incense, my uplifted hands like the evening offering.
3 上主，求您在我的口邊派守衛，求您在我的唇前派警備。
Set a guard, O LORD, over my mouth; keep watch at the door of my lips.
4 莫讓我的心傾向邪道，免得我再去犯罪作惡；莫讓我與惡人同作壞事，免得我嚐食他們的美味。
Do not let my heart be drawn to any evil thing or take part in works of wickedness with men who do iniquity; let me not feast on their delicacies.
5 義人責打我，算是我的恩遇，他責斥我，是給我頭的傅油。我的頭也決不會加以抗拒，我仍然為迫害我的人祈求。
Let the righteous man strike me; let his rebuke be an act of loving devotion. It is oil for my head; let me not refuse it. For my prayer is ever against the deeds of the wicked.
6 當他們的首領被拋於巖石時，纔感覺到我的話是如何甘飴。
When their rulers are thrown down from the cliffs, the people will listen to my words, for they are pleasant.
As when one plows and breaks up the soil, so our bones have been scattered at the mouth of Sheol. (Sheol h7585)
8 上主天主，我的雙目一直仰望你，我信賴你，不要將我的靈魂拋棄。
But my eyes are fixed on You, O GOD the Lord. In You I seek refuge; do not leave my soul defenseless.
9 求你保護我免陷於他們為我設的網羅，求你使我能夠脫離為非作歹者的圈套。
Keep me from the snares they have laid for me, and from the lures of evildoers.
10 願惡人一起墮入自設的網羅，而我卻得以安然無恙地脫逃。
Let the wicked fall into their own nets, while I pass by in safety.
