詩篇 116
1 我愛耶和華， 因為他聽了我的聲音和我的懇求。
I have loved, because Jehovah heareth My voice, my supplication,
2 他既向我側耳， 我一生要求告他。
Because He hath inclined His ear to me, And during my days I call.
Compassed me have cords of death, And straits of Sheol have found me, Distress and sorrow I find. (Sheol h7585)
4 那時，我便求告耶和華的名，說： 耶和華啊，求你救我的靈魂！
And in the name of Jehovah I call: I pray Thee, O Jehovah, deliver my soul,
5 耶和華有恩惠，有公義； 我們的上帝以憐憫為懷。
Gracious [is] Jehovah, and righteous, Yea, our God [is] merciful,
6 耶和華保護愚人； 我落到卑微的地步，他救了我。
A preserver of the simple [is] Jehovah, I was low, and to me He giveth salvation.
7 我的心哪！你要仍歸安樂， 因為耶和華用厚恩待你。
Turn back, O my soul, to thy rest, For Jehovah hath conferred benefits on thee.
8 主啊，你救我的命免了死亡， 救我的眼免了流淚， 救我的腳免了跌倒。
For Thou hast delivered my soul from death, My eyes from tears, my feet from overthrowing.
9 我要在耶和華面前行活人之路。
I walk habitually before Jehovah In the lands of the living.
10 我因信，所以如此說話； 我受了極大的困苦。
I have believed, for I speak, I — I have been afflicted greatly.
11 我曾急促地說： 人都是說謊的！
I said in my haste, 'Every man [is] a liar.'
12 我拿甚麼報答耶和華向我所賜的一切厚恩？
What do I return to Jehovah? All His benefits [are] upon me.
13 我要舉起救恩的杯， 稱揚耶和華的名。
The cup of salvation I lift up, And in the name of Jehovah I call.
14 我要在他眾民面前向耶和華還我的願。
My vows to Jehovah let me complete, I pray you, before all His people.
15 在耶和華眼中， 看聖民之死極為寶貴。
Precious in the eyes of Jehovah [is] the death for His saints.
16 耶和華啊，我真是你的僕人； 我是你的僕人，是你婢女的兒子。 你已經解開我的綁索。
Cause [it] to come, O Jehovah, for I [am] Thy servant. I [am] Thy servant, son of Thy handmaid, Thou hast opened my bonds.
17 我要以感謝為祭獻給你， 又要求告耶和華的名。
To Thee I sacrifice a sacrifice of thanks, And in the name of Jehovah I call.
18 我要在他眾民面前， 在耶和華殿的院內， 在耶路撒冷當中， 向耶和華還我的願。 你們要讚美耶和華！
My vows to Jehovah let me complete, I pray you, before all His people,
In the courts of the house of Jehovah, In thy midst, O Jerusalem, praise ye Jah!
