< 詩篇 146 >
Praise Yah! Praise Yahweh, my soul.
2 在我一生,我要讚美上主,一息尚存,我要歌頌天主。
While I live, I will praise Yahweh. I will sing praises to my God as long as I exist.
3 您們不要全心依賴王侯大臣,也不要依賴不能施救的世人;
Don’t put your trust in princes, in a son of man in whom there is no help.
4 他的氣息一斷,就歸於灰土,他的一切計劃立刻化為烏有。
His spirit departs, and he returns to the earth. In that very day, his thoughts perish.
5 凡是以雅各伯的天主為自己扶助的人,上主天主為自己希望的,是有福的人。
Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in Yahweh, his God,
6 上主創造了上天與下土,海洋和其中的所有一切。他持守信實,一直到永久。
who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them; who keeps truth forever;
7 上主為被欺的人作辯護,上主給饑餓的人賜食物,上主使被囚的人得自由。
who executes justice for the oppressed; who gives food to the hungry. Yahweh frees the prisoners.
8 上主開啟瞎子的眼睛,上主使傴僂的人直身,上主愛慕那正義的人。
Yahweh opens the eyes of the blind. Yahweh raises up those who are bowed down. Yahweh loves the righteous.
9 上主對旅客加以保護,上主支持孤兒和寡婦,上主迷惑惡人的道路。
Yahweh preserves the foreigners. He upholds the fatherless and widow, but he turns the way of the wicked upside down.
10 願上主永永遠遠為君王!熙雍,您的天主萬壽無疆!
Yahweh will reign forever; your God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise Yah!
