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, God, listen to my complaint; preserve my life from fear of my enemies.

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 plotting of evildoers, from the commotion of the doers of iniquity.

3 他們磨舌如刀， 發出苦毒的言語，好像比準了的箭，

They have sharpened their tongues like swords; they have aimed their arrows, bitter words,

4 要在暗地射完全人； 他們忽然射他，並不懼怕。

so that they may shoot from secret places at someone who is innocent; suddenly they shoot at him and fear nothing.

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 plan; they consult privately together in order to set traps; they say, “Who will see us?”

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 invent sinful plans; “We have finished,” they say, “a careful plan.” The inner thoughts and hearts of man are deep.

7 但上帝要射他們； 他們忽然被箭射傷。

But God will shoot them; suddenly they will be wounded with his arrows.

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。

They will be made to stumble, since their own tongues are against them; all who see them will wag their heads.

9 眾人都要害怕， 要傳揚上帝的工作， 並且明白他的作為。

All people will fear and will declare God's deeds. They will wisely think about what he has done.

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 will be glad about Yahweh and will take refuge in him; all the upright in heart will take pride in him.
