1 Bow down thine ear, O Jehovah, and answer me, for I am poor and needy.

大衛的祈禱。 耶和華啊，求你側耳應允我， 因我是困苦窮乏的。

2 Preserve my soul, for I am devout. O thou my God, save thy servant who trusts in thee.

求你保存我的性命，因我是虔誠人。 我的上帝啊，求你拯救這倚靠你的僕人！

3 Be merciful to me, O Lord, for to thee do I cry all the day long.

主啊，求你憐憫我， 因我終日求告你。

4 Rejoice the soul of thy servant, for to thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.

主啊，求你使僕人心裏歡喜， 因為我的心仰望你。

5 For thou, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive, and abundant in loving kindness to all those who call upon thee.

主啊，你本為良善，樂意饒恕人， 有豐盛的慈愛賜給凡求告你的人。

6 Give ear, O Jehovah, to my prayer, and hearken to the voice of my supplications.

耶和華啊，求你留心聽我的禱告， 垂聽我懇求的聲音。

7 In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee, for thou will answer me.

我在患難之日要求告你， 因為你必應允我。

8 There is none like thee among the gods, O Lord, nor like thy works.

主啊，諸神之中沒有可比你的； 你的作為也無可比。

9 All nations whom thou have made shall come and worship before thee, O Lord, and they shall glorify thy name.

主啊，你所造的萬民都要來敬拜你； 他們也要榮耀你的名。

10 For thou are great, and do wondrous things. Thou alone are God.

因你為大，且行奇妙的事； 惟獨你是上帝。

11 Teach me thy way, O Jehovah, I will walk in thy truth. Unite my heart to fear thy name.

耶和華啊，求你將你的道指教我； 我要照你的真理行； 求你使我專心敬畏你的名！

12 I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with my whole heart, and I will glorify thy name for evermore.

主－我的上帝啊，我要一心稱讚你； 我要榮耀你的名，直到永遠。

13 For great is thy loving kindness toward me, and thou have delivered my soul from the lowest Sheol. (Sheol h7585)

因為，你向我發的慈愛是大的； 你救了我的靈魂免入極深的陰間。 (Sheol h7585)

14 O God, the proud have risen up against me, and a company of violent men have sought after my soul, and have not set thee before them.

上帝啊，驕傲的人起來攻擊我， 又有一黨強橫的人尋索我的命； 他們沒有將你放在眼中。

15 But thou, O Lord, are a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness and truth.

主啊，你是有憐憫有恩典的上帝， 不輕易發怒，並有豐盛的慈愛和誠實。

16 O turn to me, and have mercy upon me. Give thy strength to thy servant, and save the son of thy handmaid.

求你向我轉臉，憐恤我， 將你的力量賜給僕人，救你婢女的兒子。

17 Show me a sign for good, that those who hate me may see it, and be put to shame, because thou, Jehovah, have helped me, and comforted me.

求你向我顯出恩待我的憑據， 叫恨我的人看見便羞愧， 因為你－耶和華幫助我，安慰我。
