詩篇 22
1 【西亞的苦難與效果】 達味詩歌，交與樂官，調寄「朝鹿」。 我的天主，我的天主，你為什麼捨棄了我？你又為什麼遠離我的懇求，和我的哀號。
For the Chief Musician; set to Aijeleth hash-Shahar. A Psalm of David. My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? [why art thou so] far from helping me, [and from] the words of my roaring?
2 我的天主，我白天呼號，你不應允；我黑夜哀禱，你仍默靜。
O my God, I cry in the day-time, but thou answerest not; and in the night season, and am not silent.
3 但是你居於聖所，作以色列的榮耀！
But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.
4 我們的先祖曾經依賴了你，你救起他們，因他們依賴你；
Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them.
5 他們呼號了你，便得到救贖，他們信賴了你，而從未蒙羞。
They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not ashamed.
6 至於我，成了微蟲，失掉了人形；是人類的恥辱，受百姓的欺凌。
But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.
7 凡看見我的人都戲笑我，他們都撇著嘴搖著頭說：
All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, [saying],
8 他既信賴上主，上主就應救他；上主既喜愛他，祂就該拯救他。
Commit [thyself] unto the LORD; let him deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighteth in him.
9 是你使我由母腹中出生，使我在母懷裏享受安寧。
But thou art he that took me out the womb: thou didst make me trust [when I was] upon my mother’s breasts.
10 我一離開母胎，就已交托於你，尚在母懷時，你己是我的天主。
I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother’s belly.
11 因為大難臨頭，求你不要遠離我，求你來近，因為無人肯來夫助我。
Be not far from me; for trouble is near; for there is none to help.
12 成群的公牛圍繞著我，巴商的雄牛包圍著我；
Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.
13 都向我張開自己的嘴，活像怒孔掠食的獅子。
They gape upon me with their mouth, [as] a ravening and a roaring lion.
14 我好像傾瀉的水一般，我全身骨骸都已脫散；我的心好像是蠟，在我內臟中溶化。
I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.
15 我的上顎枯乾得像瓦片，我的舌頭貼在咽喉上面；你竟使我於死灰中輾轉。
My Strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.
16 惡犬成地圍困著我，歹徒成夥地環繞著我；他們穿透了我的手腳，
For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of evil-doers have enclosed me; they pierced my hands and my feet.
17 我竟能數清我的骨骼；他們卻冷眼觀望著我，
I may tell all my bones; they look and stare upon me:
18 他們瓜分了我的衣服，為我的長衣，他們拈鬮。
They part my garments among them, and upon my vesture do they cast lots.
19 上主! 請不要遠離我，我的勇力，速來助我。
But be not thou far off, O LORD: O thou my succour, haste thee to help me.
20 求你由刀劍下搶救我的靈魂，由惡犬的爪牙拯救我的生命；
Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog;
21 求你從獅子的血口救我脫身，由野牛角下救出我這苦命人。
Save me from the lion’s mouth; yea, from the horns of the wild-oxen thou hast answered me.
22 我要向我的弟兄，宣揚你的聖名，在盛大的集會中，向你讚美歌頌：
I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.
23 你們敬愛上主的人，請讚美上主，雅各伯所有的後裔，請光榮上主，以色列的一切子孫，請敬愛上主！
Ye that fear the LORD, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and stand in awe of him, all ye the seed of Israel.
24 因為祂沒有輕看或蔑視卑賤人的苦痛，也沒有掩起祂自己的面孔，他一呼號上主，上主即予俯聽。
For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard.
25 我在盛大的集會中要向祂頌讚，我在敬愛祂的人前正還我的誓願。
Of thee cometh my praise in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him.
26 貧困的人必將食而飽飫，尋求上主的人必讚頌主；願他們的心靈永久生存！
The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the LORD that seek after him: let your heart live for ever.
27 整個大地將醒覺而歸順上主，天下萬民將在祂前屈膝叩首；
All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee.
28 因為唯有上主得享王權，唯有祂將萬民宰治掌管。
For the kingdom is the LORD’S: and he is the ruler over the nations.
29 凡安眼於黃泉的人都要朝拜祂，凡返回於灰土的人都要叩拜祂。我的靈魂存在生活只是為了祂，
All the fat ones of the earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him, even he that cannot keep his soul alive.
30 我的後裔將要事奉上主，向未來的世界傳述我主，
A seed shall serve him; it shall be told of the Lord unto the [next] generation.
31 向下代人傳揚祂的正義說：這全是上主的所作所為！
They shall come and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done it.
