Psalms 32

1 [A Psalm] of David. Maschil. Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, Whose sin is covered.

罪惡蒙赦免，過犯得遮掩的人，有福的。

2 Blessed is the man unto whom Jehovah imputeth not iniquity, And in whose spirit there is no guile.

上主不歸咎，心中無詐欺的人是有福的。

3 When I kept silence, my bones wasted away Through my groaning all the day long.

就在我緘默不語的時期內，我的骸因常傷歎而疲衰；

4 For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: My moisture was changed [as] with the drought of summer. (Selah)

因為你的手晝夜在重壓著我，我的力量像在盛暑中而消耗。（休止）

5 I acknowledged my sin unto thee, And mine iniquity did I not hide: I said, I will confess my transgressions unto Jehovah; And thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. (Selah)

我終於向你承認我的罪過，絲毫也沒有隱瞞我的邪惡，我說：「我要向上主承認我的罪孽，」你立刻便寬赦了我的罪債。（休止）

6 For this let every one that is godly pray unto thee in a time when thou mayest be found: Surely when the great waters overflow they shall not reach unto him.

為此虔敬的人在困厄時，都應向你哀禱，縱使大水氾濫成災，他也不會遭受波濤。

7 Thou art my hiding-place; thou wilt preserve me from trouble; Thou wilt compass me about with songs of deliverance. (Selah)

你是我的避難所，救我脫離災禍，你以拯救我的喜樂，常環繞著我。（休止）

8 I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will counsel thee with mine eye upon thee.

我教導你，指示你應走的正道，雙眼注視你，親自作你的嚮導。

9 Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding; Whose trappings must be bit and bridle to hold them in, [Else] they will not come near unto thee.

不要像騾馬一般糊塗，需要韁轡來加以管束；不然，不向你眼前趨赴。

10 Many sorrows shall be to the wicked; But he that trusteth in Jehovah, lovingkindness shall compass him about.

邪惡的人必要受許多的痛苦；仰望上主的人，必有慈愛圍護，

11 Be glad in Jehovah, and rejoice, ye righteous; And shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart.

正義的人們！你們應在上主內歡欣喜樂。 心正的人們！你們應在上主內歡呼踴躍。
