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。

O God, you are my God; early will I seek you: my soul thirsts for you, my flesh longs for you in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;

2 我在聖殿裏瞻仰過您，為看到您的威能和您的光輝；

To see your power and your glory, so as I have seen you in the sanctuary.

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 kindness is better than life, my lips shall praise you.

4 我要一生一世讚美您，我要因您的名把手舉起！

Thus will I bless you while I live: I will lift up my hands in your name.

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 shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise you with joyful lips:

6 我在床上想起了您，徹夜不眠地默想著您。

When I remember you upon my bed, and meditate on you in the night watches.

7 因為您作了我的助佑，我要在您的羽翼下歡舞。

Because you have been my help, therefore in the shadow of your wings will I rejoice.

8 我的心靈緊緊追隨您，您的右手常常扶持著我。

My soul follows hard after 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 that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the earth.

10 他們必為刀劍所殺死，也必然為野犬所分食。

They shall fall by the sword: they shall be 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 shall rejoice in God; every one that swears by him shall glory: but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.
