< 詩篇 3 >
1 【困苦人的祈禱】 達味詩歌,作於逃避其子阿貝沙隆時。 上主,迫害我的人,不可勝數! 攻擊我的人,成群結隊!
[A Psalm by David, when he fled from Absalom his son.] LORD, how my adversaries have increased. Many rise up against me.
Many there are who say of my soul, "There is no salvation for him in God." (Selah)
3 但是你,上主,是圍護我的盾牌,是我的榮耀,常使我首昂頭抬。
But you, LORD, are a shield around me, my glory, and the one who lifts up my head.
I cried out to the LORD with my voice, and he answered me from his holy mountain. (Selah)
I lay down and slept. I awoke, for the LORD sustains me.
I am not afraid of ten thousands of people who have set themselves against me on every side.
7 上主,請你興起奮發;我的天主,求你救拔,因為你擊破了我仇敵的腮頰,你打破眾惡人的門牙。
Arise, LORD. Save me, my God. For you slap all my enemies in the face. You break the teeth of the wicked.
Salvation belongs to the LORD. Your blessing is upon your people. (Selah)
