詩篇 63

1 達味詩歌，作於飄流在猶大曠野時。 天主，您是我的天主，我急切祈求您；我的靈魂渴慕您，我的肉身切望您，我有如一塊乾旱涸竭的無水田地。

A Psalm of David, when he was in the Wilderness of Judah. O God, You are my God. Earnestly I seek You; my soul thirsts for You. My body yearns for You in a dry and weary land without water.

2 我在聖殿裏瞻仰過您，為看到您的威能和您的光輝；

So I have seen You in the sanctuary and beheld Your power and glory.

3 您的慈愛比生命更為寶貴，我的唇舌要時常稱頌您。

Because Your loving devotion is better than life, my lips will glorify You.

4 我要一生一世讚美您，我要因您的名把手舉起！

So I will bless You as long as I live; in Your name I will lift my hands.

5 我的心靈好像飽享了膏脂，我要以歡愉的口唇讚美您。

My soul is satisfied as with the richest of foods; with joyful lips my mouth will praise You.

6 我在床上想起了您，徹夜不眠地默想著您。

When I remember You on my bed, I think of You through the watches of the night.

7 因為您作了我的助佑，我要在您的羽翼下歡舞。

For You are my help; I will sing for joy in the shadow of Your wings.

8 我的心靈緊緊追隨您，您的右手常常扶持著我。

My soul clings to You; Your right hand upholds me.

9 那些謀圖陷害我命的人，必將墜落在地下的深層；

But those who seek my life to destroy it will go into the depths of the earth.

10 他們必為刀劍所殺死，也必然為野犬所分食。

They will fall to the power of the sword; they will become a portion for foxes.

11 但是君王必要因天主而喜慶；凡以天主宣誓的人，必要自幸，因為說謊的口，必要瘖啞失聲。

But the king will rejoice in God; all who swear by Him will exult, for the mouths of liars will be shut.
