< 詩篇 16 >
1 【上主是我的產業】天主,求您保祐我,因為我只投靠您。
A Precious Psalm of David. Preserve me, O GOD, for I have sought refuge in thee.
2 我對天主說:唯有您是我的上主,唯有您是我的幸福。
Thou hast said unto Yahweh, My Lord, art thou! My goodness, mounteth not unto thee.
It belongeth unto the holy ones, whom, in his own land, Yahweh, ennobleth, In whom is all his delight
4 歸依其他神的人,他們的苦楚必然累增;我決不向他們行奠血之祭,他們的名號,我口決不提起。
They multiply their idols—another, have they purchased! I will not pour out their drink-offerings of blood, nor will I take up their names on my lips.
5 上主,您是我的產業,您是我的杯爵;我得到您的基業,有您為我守著。
Yahweh, is mine allotted portion and my cup, Thou, art maintaining my lot.
6 您恩賜給我在優雅的地區,我的產業實在令我滿心歡喜。
The lines, have fallen unto me, in pleasant places, Verily an inheritance that delighteth me.
7 我要稱頌引導我的上主,我的心連夜間也向我督促。
I will bless Yahweh, who hath counselled me, —Surely, by night, shall mine impulses admonish me.
8 我常將上主置於我的眼前,我決不動搖,因上主在我身邊。
I have set Yahweh before me continually, because he is on my right hand, I shall not be shaken!
9 因此我心高興,我靈喜歡,連我的肉軀也無憂安眠。
Therefore, hath my heart rejoiced, and mine honour exulted, Yea, my flesh, shall settle down securely;
10 因為您絕不會將我遺棄在陰府,也絕不讓您的聖者見到腐朽。 (Sheol )
For thou wilt not abandon my soul to hades, neither wilt thou suffer thy man of lovingkindness, to see corruption: (Sheol )
11 請將您生命的道路指示給我,唯有在您面前才有圓滿的喜悅,永遠在您身邊才是我的福樂。
Thou wilt cause me to know, the path of life, —Fulness of joys before thee, Pleasures at thy right hand evermore.
