< 詩篇 145 >
1 我的天主,君王,我要頌揚您,歌頌您的名,世世代代不停止。
[A praise psalm by David.] I will exalt you, my God, the King. I will praise your name forever and ever.
Every day I will praise you. I will extol your name forever and ever.
3 偉大的上主,實在應受讚美,上主的偉大,高深不可推測;
Great is YHWH, and greatly to be praised. His greatness is unsearchable.
4 世世代代應宣揚上主的工程,世世代代應傳述上主的大能:
One generation will commend your works to another, and will declare your mighty acts.
Of the glorious splendor of your majesty they will speak, of your wondrous works, I will meditate.
Men will speak of the might of your awesome acts. I will declare your greatness.
They will utter the memory of your great goodness, and will sing of your righteousness.
8 主慈悲為懷,寬宏大方;他常緩於發怒,仁愛無量。
YHWH is gracious, merciful, slow to anger, and of great loving kindness.
9 上主對待萬有,溫和善良,對他的受造物,仁愛慈祥。
YHWH is good to all. His tender mercies are over all his works.
10 上主,願您的一切受造物稱謝您,上主,願您的一切聖徒們讚美您,
All your works will give thanks to you, YHWH. And your faithful ones will bless you.
They will speak of the glory of your kingdom, and talk about your power;
to make known to the descendants of Adam his mighty acts, the glory of the majesty of his kingdom.
13 您的王國,是萬代的王國,您的王權,存留於無窮世;上主對自己的一切諾言,忠信不欺,上主對自己的一切受造,勝善無比。
Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom. Your dominion endures throughout all generations. YHWH is faithful in all his words, and gracious in all his deeds.
14 凡跌倒的,上主必要扶持,凡被壓抑的,使他們起立。
YHWH upholds all who fall, and raises up all those who are bowed down.
The eyes of all wait for you. You give them their food in due season.
You yourself open your hand and satisfy the desire of every living thing.
17 上主在他的一切路徑上,至公至義;上主在他的一切化工上,聖善無比。
YHWH is righteous in all his ways, and faithful in all his deeds.
18 上主接近一切呼求祂的人,就是一切誠心呼求祂的人。
YHWH is near to all those who call on him, to all who call on him in truth.
19 他必成全敬愛自己者的心願,聽到他們的呼號,必施以救援。
He will fulfill the desire of those who fear him. He also will hear their cry, and will save them.
20 凡愛慕上主的,上主必保護他們;凡作惡犯罪的,上主必消除他們。
YHWH preserves all those who love him, but all the wicked he will destroy.
21 願我的口舌稱述上主的光榮,願眾生讚美他的聖名於無窮!
My mouth will speak the praise of YHWH. Let all flesh bless his holy name forever and ever.
