< Psalms 54 >
1 Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me in thy might.
達味訓誨歌,交與樂官,和以絃樂。 作於齊弗人來對撒烏耳說:「看,達味藏在我們這裡」時。 天主,求你因你的名賜我救援,求你並以你的權能為我伸冤。
2 Hear my prayer, O God. Give ear to the words of my mouth.
天主,求你俯聽我的祈求,側耳傾聽我的投訴。
3 For strangers are risen up against me, and violent men have sought after my soul. They have not set God before them. (Selah)
傲慢的人起來向我進攻,蠻橫的人想謀害我的生命,他們沒有把天主放在眼中。(休止)
4 Behold, God is my helper. The Lord is of those who uphold my soul.
請看,天主必定給我助陣,上主必扶持我生命。
5 He will requite the evil to my enemies. Destroy thou them in thy truth.
求你使災禍報應在我的仇讎身上,求你憑你的忠誠將他們消除滅亡。
6 With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to thee. I will give thanks to thy name, O Jehovah, for it is good.
我要自願向上主祭獻;上主,我要對你的美名稱讚。
7 For he has delivered me out of all trouble, and my eye has seen it upon my enemies.
因為你救我脫離了一切災難,使我親眼看見我的仇敵潰散。
