< 詩篇 136 >
1 你們要稱謝耶和華,因他本為善; 他的慈愛永遠長存。
Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good.
Give thanks to the God of gods.
Give thanks to the Lord of lords.
He alone does great wonders.
By His insight He made the heavens.
He spread out the earth upon the waters.
He made the great lights—
the moon and stars to govern the night.
10 稱謝那擊殺埃及人之長子的, 因他的慈愛永遠長存。
He struck down the firstborn of Egypt
11 他領以色列人從他們中間出來, 因他的慈愛永遠長存。
and brought Israel out from among them
12 他施展大能的手和伸出來的膀臂, 因他的慈愛永遠長存。
with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm.
He divided the Red Sea in two
14 他領以色列從其中經過, 因他的慈愛永遠長存;
and led Israel through the midst,
15 卻把法老和他的軍兵推翻在紅海裏, 因他的慈愛永遠長存。
but swept Pharaoh and his army into the Red Sea.
16 稱謝那引導自己的民行走曠野的, 因他的慈愛永遠長存。
He led His people through the wilderness.
He struck down great kings
and slaughtered mighty kings—
19 就是殺戮亞摩利王西宏, 因他的慈愛永遠長存;
Sihon king of the Amorites
21 他將他們的地賜他的百姓為業, 因他的慈愛永遠長存;
and He gave their land as an inheritance,
22 就是賜他的僕人以色列為業, 因他的慈愛永遠長存。
a heritage to His servant Israel.
23 他顧念我們在卑微的地步, 因他的慈愛永遠長存。
He remembered us in our low estate
and freed us from our enemies.
25 他賜糧食給凡有血氣的, 因他的慈愛永遠長存。
He gives food to every creature.
26 你們要稱謝天上的上帝, 因他的慈愛永遠長存。
Give thanks to the God of heaven!
