< 詩篇 25 >
A psalm of David. Lord, I come to worship you.
2 我的上帝啊,我素來倚靠你; 求你不要叫我羞愧, 不要叫我的仇敵向我誇勝。
I trust in you, my God. Don't let me be humiliated, and don't let my enemies triumph over me.
3 凡等候你的必不羞愧; 惟有那無故行奸詐的必要羞愧。
No one who trusts in you will be humiliated, but humiliation comes to those who are deliberately dishonest.
4 耶和華啊,求你將你的道指示我, 將你的路教訓我!
Show me your ways, Lord; teach me to follow your paths.
5 求你以你的真理引導我,教訓我, 因為你是救我的上帝。 我終日等候你。
Lead me in your truth and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation. All day long I put my trust in you.
6 耶和華啊,求你記念你的憐憫和慈愛, 因為這是亙古以來所常有的。
Remember, Lord, your compassion and trustworthy love—they are eternal!
7 求你不要記念我幼年的罪愆和我的過犯; 耶和華啊,求你因你的恩惠,按你的慈愛記念我。
Please don't remember the sins of my youth when I rebelled against you. Instead, remember me according to your trustworthy love, remember me because of your goodness, Lord.
8 耶和華是良善正直的, 所以他必指示罪人走正路。
The Lord is good and he is right; that is why he shows the way to those who are lost.
He leads those who are humble in doing what's right, teaching them his way.
10 凡遵守他的約和他法度的人, 耶和華都以慈愛誠實待他。
The Lord's paths are those of trustworthy love and truth for those who keep his agreement and do as he says.
11 耶和華啊,求你因你的名赦免我的罪, 因為我的罪重大。
Lord, because of your nature, forgive my many sins.
12 誰敬畏耶和華, 耶和華必指示他當選擇的道路。
Who are those who respect the Lord? He will show them the path to choose.
They will continue to be prosperous, and their descendants will inherit the land.
14 耶和華與敬畏他的人親密; 他必將自己的約指示他們。
The Lord is friends with those who respect him, explaining to them his agreement.
15 我的眼目時常仰望耶和華, 因為他必將我的腳從網裏拉出來。
I always look to the Lord, for he rescues me when I'm trapped.
Watch over me and be good to me, because I am all alone and suffering.
My problems get bigger and bigger. Please save me from all I'm going through.
18 求你看顧我的困苦,我的艱難, 赦免我一切的罪。
See all my troubles and trials. Please forgive my sins.
19 求你察看我的仇敵, 因為他們人多,並且痛痛地恨我。
Look at how many enemies I have, and how they really hate me!
20 求你保護我的性命,搭救我, 使我不致羞愧,因為我投靠你。
Please look after me and save me! Don't let me be humiliated, for you are the one who protects me.
May integrity and honesty defend me because I place my confidence in you.
God, please deliver the people of Israel from all their troubles!
