詩篇 52

1 以東人多益來告訴掃羅說：「大衛到了亞希米勒家。」那時，大衛作這訓誨詩，交與伶長。 勇士啊，你為何以作惡自誇？ 上帝的慈愛是常存的。

For the Chief Musician. A contemplation by David, when Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul, “David has come to Ahimelech’s house.” Why do you boast of mischief, mighty man? God’s loving kindness endures continually.

2 你的舌頭邪惡詭詐， 好像剃頭刀，快利傷人。

Your tongue plots destruction, like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.

3 你愛惡勝似愛善， 又愛說謊，不愛說公義。 (細拉)

You love evil more than good, lying rather than speaking the truth. (Selah)

4 詭詐的舌頭啊， 你愛說一切毀滅的話！

You love all devouring words, you deceitful tongue.

5 上帝也要毀滅你，直到永遠； 他要把你拿去，從你的帳棚中抽出， 從活人之地將你拔出。 (細拉)

God will likewise destroy you forever. He will take you up, and pluck you out of your tent, and root you out of the land of the living. (Selah)

6 義人要看見而懼怕， 並要笑他，

The righteous also will see it, and fear, and laugh at him, saying,

7 說：看哪，這就是那不以上帝為他力量的人， 只倚仗他豐富的財物，在邪惡上堅立自己。

“Behold, this is the man who didn’t make God his strength, but trusted in the abundance of his riches, and strengthened himself in his wickedness.”

8 至於我，就像上帝殿中的青橄欖樹； 我永永遠遠倚靠上帝的慈愛。

But as for me, I am like a green olive tree in God’s house. I trust in God’s loving kindness forever and ever.

9 我要稱謝你，直到永遠， 因為你行了這事。 我也要在你聖民面前仰望你的名； 這名本為美好。

I will give you thanks forever, because you have done it. I will hope in your name, for it is good, in the presence of your holy ones.
