詩篇 27
1 上主是我的光明，我的救援，我還畏懼何人﹖ 上主是我生命穩固的保障，我還害怕何人﹖
[By David.] YHWH is my light and my salvation. Whom shall I fear? YHWH is the stronghold of my life. Of whom shall I be afraid?
2 當惡人前來攻擊我，要吃我的肉時，我的對手，我的仇敵，反而跌倒斷氣。
When evildoers came at me to eat up my flesh, even my adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell.
3 雖有大軍向我進攻，我的心毫不戰慄；雖然戰爭向我迫近，我依然滿懷依恃。
Though an army is deployed against me, my heart shall not fear. Though war should rise against me, even then I will be confident.
4 我有一事祈求上主，我要懇切請求此事：使我一生的歲月，常居住在上主的殿裏，欣賞上主的甘飴慈祥，瞻仰上主聖所的堂皇。
One thing I have asked of YHWH, that I will seek after, that I may dwell in the house of YHWH all the days of my life, to see YHWH's beauty, and to inquire in his temple.
5 因為在我困難的時他日，祂將我藏在祂的帳棚裏；將我藏在祂帳幕的深處，並將我高舉放在磐石。
For in the day of trouble he will keep me secretly in his pavilion. In the covert of his tabernacle he will hide me. He will lift me up on a rock.
6 現在我可昂首抬頭，卑視我周圍的仇人；我要在上主的帳幕裏，奉獻歡樂之祭，要向上主歡唱讚美的詩詞。
Now my head will be lifted up above my enemies around me. I will offer sacrifices of joy in his tent. I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to YHWH.
7 上主，求你俯聽我的呼號，上主，求你憐憫我，垂允我。
Hear, YHWH, when I cry with my voice. Have mercy also on me, and answer me.
8 論及你，我心中時常在想：你應該尋求祂的儀容。
My heart said of you, "Seek his face." Your face, YHWH, I will seek.
9 求你不要向我掩住你的臉，你發怒時不要趕散你僕人。你向來就是我唯一的救援；救我的天主，不要棄我不管。
Do not hide your face from me. Do not put your servant away in anger. You have been my help. Do not abandon me, neither forsake me, God of my salvation.
10 我的父母雖捨棄了我，然而上主卻收留了我。
When my father and my mother forsake me, then YHWH will take me up.
11 上主，求你給我指示你的正路，為了我的仇敵，我踏上了坦途。
Teach me your way, YHWH. Lead me in a straight path, because of my enemies.
12 求你不要將我交於仇人的私慾，因為殘暴的假見證來向我攻擊。
Do not deliver me over to the desire of my adversaries, for false witnesses have risen up against me, such as breathe out violence.
13 我深信在此活人的地區，必定會享見上主的幸福。
I am still confident of this: I will see the goodness of YHWH in the land of the living.
14 你要鼓起勇氣，期望上主！你要振作精神，期望上主！
Wait for YHWH. Be strong, and let your heart take courage. Yes, wait for YHWH.
