詩篇 64

1 大衛的詩，交與伶長。 上帝啊，我哀歎的時候，求你聽我的聲音！ 求你保護我的性命，不受仇敵的驚恐！

For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. Hear my voice, O God, in my complaint: Preserve my life from fear of the enemy.

2 求你把我隱藏， 使我脫離作惡之人的暗謀和作孽之人的擾亂。

Hide me from the secret counsel of evil-doers, From the tumult of the workers of iniquity;

3 他們磨舌如刀， 發出苦毒的言語，好像比準了的箭，

Who have whet their tongue like a sword, And have aimed their arrows, even bitter words,

4 要在暗地射完全人； 他們忽然射他，並不懼怕。

That they may shoot in secret places at the perfect: Suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.

5 他們彼此勉勵設下惡計； 他們商量暗設網羅， 說：誰能看見？

They encourage themselves in an evil purpose; They commune of laying snares privily; They say, Who will see them?

6 他們圖謀奸惡， 說：我們是極力圖謀的。 他們各人的意念心思是深的。

They search out iniquities; We have accomplished, [say they], a diligent search: And the inward thought and the heart of every one is deep.

7 但上帝要射他們； 他們忽然被箭射傷。

But God will shoot at them; With an arrow suddenly shall they be wounded.

8 他們必然絆跌，被自己的舌頭所害； 凡看見他們的必都搖頭。

So they shall be made to stumble, their own tongue being against them: All that see them shall wag the head.

9 眾人都要害怕， 要傳揚上帝的工作， 並且明白他的作為。

And all men shall fear; And they shall declare the work of God, And shall wisely consider of his doing.

10 義人必因耶和華歡喜， 並要投靠他； 凡心裏正直的人都要誇口。

The righteous shall be glad in Jehovah, and shall take refuge in him; And all the upright in heart shall glory.
