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！

HEAR my voice, O God, in my prayer: 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 the wicked; from the insurrection 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 whet their tongue like a sword, and bend their bows to shoot 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 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 matter: they commune of laying snares privily; they say, Who shall 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; they accomplish a diligent search: both the inward thought of every one of them, and the heart, is deep.

7 但上帝要射他們； 他們忽然被箭射傷。

But God shall 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 make their own tongue to fall upon themselves: all that see them shall flee away.

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 shall declare the work of God; for they 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 the Lord, and shall trust in him; and all the upright in heart shall glory.
