< Psalms 7 >

1 A Shiggaion of David, which he sang to the LORD concerning the words of Cush, a Benjamite. O LORD my God, I take refuge in You; save me and deliver me from all my pursuers,
大衛指着便雅憫人古實的話,向耶和華唱的流離歌。 耶和華-我的上帝啊,我投靠你! 求你救我脫離一切追趕我的人,將我救拔出來!
2 or they will shred my soul like a lion and tear me to pieces with no one to rescue me.
恐怕他們像獅子撕裂我, 甚至撕碎,無人搭救。
3 O LORD my God, if I have done this, if injustice is on my hands,
耶和華-我的上帝啊,我若行了這事, 若有罪孽在我手裏,
4 if I have rewarded my ally with evil, if I have plundered my foe without cause,
我若以惡報那與我交好的人- 連那無故與我為敵的,我也救了他,
5 then may my enemy pursue me and overtake me; may he trample me to the ground and leave my honor in the dust.
就任憑仇敵追趕我,直到追上, 將我的性命踏在地下, 使我的榮耀歸於灰塵。 (細拉)
6 Arise, O LORD, in Your anger; rise up against the fury of my enemies. Awake, my God, and ordain judgment.
耶和華啊,求你在怒中起來, 挺身而立,抵擋我敵人的暴怒! 求你為我興起!你已經命定施行審判!
7 Let the assembled peoples gather around You; take Your seat over them on high.
願眾民的會環繞你! 願你從其上歸於高位!
8 The LORD judges the peoples; vindicate me, O LORD, according to my righteousness and integrity.
耶和華向眾民施行審判; 耶和華啊,求你按我的公義和我心中的純正判斷我。
9 Put an end to the evil of the wicked, but establish the righteous, O righteous God who searches hearts and minds.
願惡人的惡斷絕! 願你堅立義人! 因為公義的上帝察驗人的心腸肺腑。
10 My shield is with God, who saves the upright in heart.
上帝是我的盾牌; 他拯救心裏正直的人。
11 God is a righteous judge and a God who feels indignation each day.
上帝是公義的審判者, 又是天天向惡人發怒的上帝。
12 If one does not repent, God will sharpen His sword; He has bent and strung His bow.
若有人不回頭,他的刀必磨快, 弓必上弦,預備妥當了。
13 He has prepared His deadly weapons; He ordains His arrows with fire.
他也預備了殺人的器械; 他所射的是火箭。
14 Behold, the wicked man travails with evil; he conceives trouble and births falsehood.
試看惡人因奸惡而劬勞, 所懷的是毒害,所生的是虛假。
15 He has dug a hole and hollowed it out; he has fallen into a pit of his own making.
他掘了坑,又挖深了, 竟掉在自己所挖的阱裏。
16 His trouble recoils on himself, and his violence falls on his own head.
他的毒害必臨到他自己的頭上; 他的強暴必落到他自己的腦袋上。
17 I will thank the LORD for His righteousness and sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High.
我要照着耶和華的公義稱謝他, 歌頌耶和華至高者的名。
