< 詩篇 48 >
1 科辣黑後裔的詩歌。 在我們天主的城池中,上主至大,應受到讚頌。
A Song; a Psalm of the sons of Korah. Great is Jehovah, and greatly to be praised, In the city of our God, in his holy mountain.
2 祂的聖山巍峨高聳,是普世的歡喜,北方中心熙雍聖山,是大王的城邑。
Beautiful in elevation, the joy of the whole earth, Is mount Zion, [on] the sides of the north, The city of the great King.
God hath made himself known in her palaces for a refuge.
For, lo, the kings assembled themselves, They passed by together.
They saw it, then were they amazed; They were dismayed, they hasted away.
Trembling took hold of them there, Pain, as of a woman in travail.
With the east wind Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish.
8 在萬軍上主的城裏,即我們天主的城堡,我們所見正如所聞:天主必使城堡永固。
As we have heard, so have we seen In the city of Jehovah of hosts, in the city of our God: God will establish it for ever. (Selah)
We have thought on thy lovingkindness, O God, In the midst of thy temple.
10 天主,你的名號遠達地極,你受的讚美亦應該如此。你的右手全充滿了正義,
As is thy name, O God, So is thy praise unto the ends of the earth: Thy right hand is full of righteousness.
11 願熙雍山因你的公正而喜樂;猶大女子也要因此歡欣踴躍。
Let mount Zion be glad, Let the daughters of Judah rejoice, Because of thy judgments.
Walk about Zion, and go round about her; Number the towers thereof;
13 觀察她的城廓,巡視她的碉堡,是為叫你們向後代子孫陳述:
Mark ye well her bulwarks; Consider her palaces: That ye may tell it to the generation following.
14 天主的確是偉大的天主,也永遠是我們的天主,始終領導我們的天主。
For this God is our God for ever and ever: He will be our guide [even] unto death.
