詩篇 57
1 大衛逃避掃羅，藏在洞裏。那時，他作這金詩，交與伶長。調用休要毀壞。 上帝啊，求你憐憫我，憐憫我！ 因為我的心投靠你。 我要投靠在你翅膀的蔭下， 等到災害過去。
For the music director. According to “Do Not Destroy.” A psalm (miktam) of David concerning the time he fled from Saul and hid in the cave. Please be kind to me, God! Be kind to me because I come to you for protection. I will shelter under the shadow of your wings until the danger is past.
2 我要求告至高的上帝， 就是為我成全諸事的上帝。
I cry out for help to God Most High, to God who vindicates me.
3 那要吞我的人辱罵我的時候， 上帝從天上必施恩救我， 也必向我發出慈愛和誠實。
From heaven he sends his help, and he saves me. He defeats those who persecute me. (Selah) God sends me his unfailing love, showing he is completely trustworthy.
4 我的性命在獅子中間； 我躺臥在性如烈火的世人當中。 他們的牙齒是槍、箭； 他們的舌頭是快刀。
I am surrounded by man-eating lions—I am forced to live with them! Their teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongues are swords.
5 上帝啊，願你崇高過於諸天！ 願你的榮耀高過全地！
God, your greatness is above the highest heavens; and your glory covers the whole earth!
6 他們為我的腳設下網羅，壓制我的心； 他們在我面前挖了坑，自己反掉在其中。 (細拉)
They set a trap to catch me. I was so depressed. They dug a pit on my path but they were the ones who fell into it. (Selah)
7 上帝啊，我心堅定，我心堅定； 我要唱詩，我要歌頌！
I have confidence in you, God, I have confidence in you. I will sing songs of praise to you.
8 我的靈啊，你當醒起！ 琴瑟啊，你們當醒起！ 我自己要極早醒起！
I say to myself, “Wake up!” Wake up, harp and lyre! I will wake up the dawn!
9 主啊，我要在萬民中稱謝你， 在列邦中歌頌你！
I will thank you among the peoples, Lord; I will sing your praises among the nations.
10 因為，你的慈愛高及諸天； 你的誠實達到穹蒼。
Your faithful love reaches to the heavens; your trustworthiness to the clouds.
11 上帝啊，願你崇高過於諸天！ 願你的榮耀高過全地！
God, your greatness is above the highest heavens; and your glory covers the whole earth!
