< 诗篇 7 >
1 大卫指着便雅悯人古实的话,向耶和华唱的流离歌。 耶和华—我的 神啊,我投靠你! 求你救我脱离一切追赶我的人,将我救拔出来!
“A psalm of David, which he sang to Jehovah, on account of the reproaches of Cush the Benjamite.” O Jehovah, my God! to thee do I look for help; Save me from them that persecute me, and deliver me!
Lest mine enemy tear me like a lion; Lest he rend me in pieces, while there is none to help.
3 耶和华—我的 神啊,我若行了这事, 若有罪孽在我手里,
O Jehovah, my God! if I have done this, —If there be iniquity upon my hands,
4 我若以恶报那与我交好的人— 连那无故与我为敌的,我也救了他,
If I have rendered evil to my friend, Or have despoiled him that without cause is mine enemy, —
5 就任凭仇敌追赶我,直到追上, 将我的性命踏在地下, 使我的荣耀归于灰尘。 (细拉)
Let my adversary pursue and take me; Let him trample me to the ground, And lay me prostrate in the dust! (Pause)
6 耶和华啊,求你在怒中起来, 挺身而立,抵挡我敌人的暴怒! 求你为我兴起!你已经命定施行审判!
Arise, O LORD! in thine anger; Lift thyself up against the rage of mine enemies; Awake for me, ordain judgment!
Let the assembly of the nations compass thee about, And on their account return to the height!
8 耶和华向众民施行审判; 耶和华啊,求你按我的公义和我心中的纯正判断我。
The LORD judgeth the nations; Judge me, O LORD! according to my righteousness, And requite me according to my integrity!
9 愿恶人的恶断绝! 愿你坚立义人! 因为公义的 神察验人的心肠肺腑。
Oh, let the wickedness of the wicked be at an end; But establish the righteous! For the righteous God trieth the heart and the reins.
My shield is with God, Who saveth the upright in heart.
11 神是公义的审判者, 又是天天向恶人发怒的 神。
God is a righteous judge, And a God who is angry every day.
12 若有人不回头,他的刀必磨快, 弓必上弦,预备妥当了。
If he do not desist, He sharpeneth his sword; He bendeth his bow, and maketh it ready;
He prepareth for him the instruments of death; He shooteth his burning arrows.
14 试看恶人因奸恶而劬劳, 所怀的是毒害,所生的是虚假。
Behold, he travailed with iniquity, And conceived mischief, But hath brought forth disappointment!
15 他掘了坑,又挖深了, 竟掉在自己所挖的阱里。
He made a pit and digged it. And is fallen into the ditch which he made.
16 他的毒害必临到他自己的头上; 他的强暴必落到他自己的脑袋上。
His mischief returneth upon his own head, And his violence cometh down upon his own skull.
17 我要照着耶和华的公义称谢他, 歌颂耶和华至高者的名。
I will praise the LORD according to his righteousness; I will sing praise to the name of the LORD most high.
