Psalms 30

1 A Psalm; a Song at the Dedication of the House. [A Psalm] of David. I will extol thee, O Jehovah; for thou hast raised me up, And hast not made my foes to rejoice over me.

【病後感恩歌】 聖殿祝聖的詩歌，達味作。 上主，我稱揚你，因為你救拔了我，你也沒有使我的仇敵向我自誇。

2 O Jehovah my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me.

上主，我一向你呼號，我主，你便醫治了我。

3 O Jehovah, thou hast brought up my soul from Sheol; Thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit. (Sheol h7585)

上主，你由陰府中把我救出，又使我安全復生，免降幽谷。 (Sheol h7585)

4 Sing praise unto Jehovah, O ye saints of his, And give thanks to his holy memorial [name].

上主的聖民，請向上主歌頌，稱謝上主的聖名。

5 For his anger is but for a moment; His favor is for a life-time: Weeping may tarry for the night, But joy [cometh] in the morning.

因為上主的忿怒，瞬息消散；上主的恩愛卻要終生綿延。晚間雖令人哭涕，清晨卻使人歡喜。

6 As for me, I said in my prosperity, I shall never be moved.

我曾自誇說過，我永不會動搖。

7 Thou, Jehovah, of thy favor hadst made my mountain to stand strong: Thou didst hide thy face; I was troubled.

上主，你恩待我，使我立足於穩固山岡；但是你一掩面，我便立刻感到失措驚惶。

8 I cried to thee, O Jehovah; And unto Jehovah I made supplication:

上主，我曾向你呼號，我曾向我主哀求說：

9 What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth?

我如果降入陰府，我的血於你何益？灰土豈能讚美你，或宣揚你的忠義？

10 Hear, O Jehovah, and have mercy upon me: Jehovah, be thou my helper.

上主，請俯聽我，憐憫我；上主，求你前來助佑我。

11 Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing; Thou hast loosed my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;

你把我的哀痛，給我變成了舞蹈，脫去了我的苦衣給我披上喜樂；

12 To the end that [my] glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O Jehovah my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever.

為此，我的心靈歌頌你，永不止息；上主，我的天主，我要永遠稱謝你！
