詩篇 139
1 大衛的詩，交與伶長。 耶和華啊，你已經鑒察我，認識我。
For the end, a Psalm of David. O Lord, thou hast proved me, and known me.
2 我坐下，我起來，你都曉得； 你從遠處知道我的意念。
Thou knowest my down-sitting and mine up-rising: thou understandest my thoughts long before.
3 我行路，我躺臥，你都細察； 你也深知我一切所行的。
Thou hast traced my path and my bed, and hast foreseen all my ways.
4 耶和華啊，我舌頭上的話， 你沒有一句不知道的。
For there is no unrighteous word in my tongue: behold, O Lord, thou hast known all things,
5 你在我前後環繞我， 按手在我身上。
the last and the first: thou hast fashioned me, and laid thine hand upon me.
6 這樣的知識奇妙，是我不能測的， 至高，是我不能及的。
The knowledge of thee is too wonderful for me; it is very difficult, I cannot [attain] to it.
7 我往哪裏去躲避你的靈？ 我往哪裏逃、躲避你的面？
Whither shall I go from thy Spirit? and whither shall I flee from my presence?
If I should go up to heaven, thou art there: if I should go down to hell, thou art present. (Sheol h7585)
9 我若展開清晨的翅膀， 飛到海極居住，
If I should spread my wings [to fly] straight forward, and sojourn at the extremity of the sea, [it would be vain],
10 就是在那裏，你的手必引導我； 你的右手也必扶持我。
for even there thy hand would guide me, and thy right hand would hold me.
11 我若說：黑暗必定遮蔽我， 我周圍的亮光必成為黑夜；
When I said, Surely the darkness will cover me; even the night [was] light in my luxury.
12 黑暗也不能遮蔽我，使你不見， 黑夜卻如白晝發亮。 黑暗和光明，在你看都是一樣。
For darkness will not be darkness with thee; but night will be light as day: as its darkness, so shall its light [be to thee].
13 我的肺腑是你所造的； 我在母腹中，你已覆庇我。
For thou, O Lord, hast possessed my reins; thou hast helped me from my mother's womb.
14 我要稱謝你，因我受造，奇妙可畏； 你的作為奇妙，這是我心深知道的。
I will give thee thanks; for thou art fearfully wondrous; wondrous are thy works; and my soul knows [it] well.
15 我在暗中受造，在地的深處被聯絡； 那時，我的形體並不向你隱藏。
My bones, which thou madest in secret were not hidden from thee, nor my substance, in the lowest parts of the earth.
16 我未成形的體質，你的眼早已看見了； 你所定的日子，我尚未度一日， 你都寫在你的冊上了。
Thine eyes saw my unwrought [substance], and all [men] shall be written in thy book; they shall be formed by day, though [there should for a time] be no one among them.
17 上帝啊，你的意念向我何等寶貴！ 其數何等眾多！
But thy friends, O God, have been greatly honoured by me; their rule has been greatly strengthened.
18 我若數點，比海沙更多； 我睡醒的時候，仍和你同在。
I will number them, and they shall be multiplied beyond the sand; I awake, and am still with thee.
19 上帝啊，你必要殺戮惡人； 所以，你們好流人血的，離開我去吧！
Oh that thou wouldest slay the wicked, O God; depart from me, ye men of blood.
20 因為他們說惡言頂撞你； 你的仇敵也妄稱你的名。
For thou wilt say concerning [their] thought, [that] they shall take thy cities in vain.
21 耶和華啊，恨惡你的，我豈不恨惡他們嗎？ 攻擊你的，我豈不憎嫌他們嗎？
Have I not hated them, O Lord, that hate thee? and wasted away because of thine enemies?
22 我切切地恨惡他們， 以他們為仇敵。
I have hated them with perfect hatred; they were counted my enemies.
23 上帝啊，求你鑒察我，知道我的心思， 試煉我，知道我的意念，
Prove me, O God, and know my heart; examine me, and know my paths;
24 看在我裏面有甚麼惡行沒有， 引導我走永生的道路。
and see if [there is any] way of iniquity in me, and lead me in an everlasting way.
