< 詩篇 34 >
1 大衛在亞比米勒面前裝瘋,被他趕出去,就作這詩。 我要時時稱頌耶和華; 讚美他的話必常在我口中。
A psalm of David; when he pretended to be insane before Abimelech, who drove him out. I will praise Yahweh at all times, his praise will always be in my mouth.
I will praise Yahweh! May the oppressed hear and rejoice.
Praise Yahweh with me, let us lift up his name together.
4 我曾尋求耶和華,他就應允我, 救我脫離了一切的恐懼。
I sought Yahweh and he answered me, and he gave me victory over all my fears.
Those who look to him are radiant, and their faces are not ashamed.
6 我這困苦人呼求,耶和華便垂聽, 救我脫離一切患難。
This oppressed man cried and Yahweh heard him and saved him from all his troubles.
7 耶和華的使者在敬畏他的人四圍安營, 搭救他們。
The angel of Yahweh camps around those who fear him and rescues them.
8 你們要嘗嘗主恩的滋味,便知道他是美善; 投靠他的人有福了!
Taste and see that Yahweh is good. Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him.
9 耶和華的聖民哪,你們當敬畏他, 因敬畏他的一無所缺。
Fear Yahweh, you his holy people. There is no lack for those who fear him.
10 少壯獅子還缺食忍餓, 但尋求耶和華的甚麼好處都不缺。
The young lions sometimes lack food and suffer hunger, but those who seek Yahweh will not lack anything good.
11 眾弟子啊,你們當來聽我的話! 我要將敬畏耶和華的道教訓你們。
Come, sons, listen to me. I will teach you the fear of Yahweh.
What man is there who desires life and loves many days, that he may see good?
Then keep your tongue from evil and keep your lips from speaking lies.
Turn away from evil and do good. Seek peace and go after it.
15 耶和華的眼目看顧義人; 他的耳朵聽他們的呼求。
The eyes of Yahweh are on the righteous and his ears are directed toward their cry.
16 耶和華向行惡的人變臉, 要從世上除滅他們的名號。
The face of Yahweh is against those who do evil, to cut off the memory of them from the earth.
17 義人呼求,耶和華聽見了, 便救他們脫離一切患難。
The righteous cry out and Yahweh hears and he rescues them from all their troubles.
Yahweh is close to the brokenhearted, and he saves those who are crushed in spirit.
Many are the troubles of the righteous, but Yahweh delivers them out of them all.
He keeps all his bones, not one of them will be broken.
Evil will kill the wicked. Those who hate the righteous will be condemned.
22 耶和華救贖他僕人的靈魂; 凡投靠他的,必不致定罪。
Yahweh rescues the lives of his servants. None of those who take refuge in him will be condemned.
