詩篇 58

1 達味金詩，交與樂官。調寄「莫要毀壞」。 判官們！你們是否真正出言公平？世人們！你們是否照理審斷案情？

To the chief music-maker; put to Al-tashheth. Michtam. Of David. Is there righteousness in your mouths, O you gods? are you upright judges, O you sons of men?

2 可惜你們一心只想為非作惡，在地上你們的雙手只行宰割。

The purposes of your hearts are evil; your hands are full of cruel doings on the earth.

3 作惡者一離母胎，即背離正路；說謊者一出母腹，即走入歧途。

The evil-doers are strange from the first; from the hour of their birth they go out of the true way, saying false words.

4 他們滿懷的毒素有如蛇毒；他們又像塞住耳朵的聾蝮，

Their poison is like the poison of a snake; they are like the adder, whose ears are shut;

5 不聽巫士的言語，不隨靈妙的妖術。

Who will not be moved by the voice of the wonder-worker, however great are his powers.

6 天主，求你把他們口中的牙齒搗爛，上主，求你把少壯獅子的牙床打斷。

O God, let their teeth be broken in their mouths; let the great teeth of the young lions be pulled out, O Lord.

7 他們有如奔湍的急水流去，他們有如被踏的青草枯萎；

Let them be turned to liquid like the ever-flowing waters; let them be cut off like the grass by the way.

8 他們有如蝸牛爬過溶化消失，又如流產的胎兒不得親見天日！

Let them be like an after-birth which is turned to water and comes to an end; like the fruit of a woman who gives birth before her time, let them not see the sun.

9 他們的鍋在未覺到荊火以前，願狂怒的烈風將他們全部吹散！

Before they are conscious of it, let them be cut down like thorns; let a strong wind take them away like waste growth.

10 義人看見大仇己報時，必然喜樂，他要在惡人的血中洗自己的腳。

The upright man will be glad when he sees their punishment; his feet will be washed in the blood of the evil-doer.

11 如此，眾人都說：「義人果然獲得了好的報酬，世上確有執行審判的天主！

So that men will say, Truly there is a reward for righteousness; truly there is a God who is judge on the earth.
