诗篇 56

1 非利士人在迦特拿住大卫。那时，他作这金诗，交与伶长。调用远方无声鸽。 神啊，求你怜悯我，因为人要把我吞了， 终日攻击欺压我。

For the end, concerning the people that were removed from the sanctuary, by David for a memorial, when the Philistines caught him in Geth. Have mercy upon me, O God; for man has trodden me down; all the day long he warring has afflicted me.

2 我的仇敌终日要把我吞了， 因逞骄傲攻击我的人甚多。

Mine enemies have trodden me down all the day from the dawning of the day; for there are many warring against me.

3 我惧怕的时候要倚靠你。

They shall be afraid, but I will trust in you.

4 我倚靠 神，我要赞美他的话； 我倚靠 神，必不惧怕。 血气之辈能把我怎么样呢？

In God I will praise my words; all the day have I hoped in God; I will not fear what flesh shall do to me.

5 他们终日颠倒我的话； 他们一切的心思都是要害我。

All the day long they have abominated my words; all their devices [are] against me for evil.

6 他们聚集，埋伏窥探我的脚踪， 等候要害我的命。

They will dwell near and hide [themselves]; they will watch my steps, accordingly as I have waited patiently in my soul.

7 他们岂能因罪孽逃脱吗？ 神啊，求你在怒中使众民堕落！

You will on no account save them; you will bring down the people in wrath.

8 我几次流离，你都记数； 求你把我眼泪装在你的皮袋里。 这不都记在你册子上吗？

O God, I have declared my life to you; you has set my tears before you, even according to your promise.

9 我呼求的日子，我的仇敌都要转身退后。 神帮助我，这是我所知道的。

Mine enemies shall be turned back, in the day wherein I shall call upon you; behold, I know that you are my God.

10 我倚靠 神，我要赞美他的话； 我倚靠耶和华，我要赞美他的话。

In God, will I praise [his] word; in the Lord will I praise [his] saying.

11 我倚靠 神，必不惧怕。 人能把我怎么样呢？

I have hoped in God; I will not be afraid of what man shall do to me.

12 神啊，我向你所许的愿在我身上； 我要将感谢祭献给你。

The vows of your praise, O God, which I will pay, are upon me.

13 因为你救我的命脱离死亡。 你岂不是救护我的脚不跌倒、 使我在生命光中行在 神面前吗？

For you have delivered my soul from death, and my feet from sliding, that I should be well-pleasing before God in the land of the living.
