Psalms 116

1 Alleluia. I have loved: therefore, the Lord will heed the voice of my prayer.

我爱耶和华， 因为他听了我的声音和我的恳求。

2 For he has inclined his ear to me. And in my days, I will call upon him.

他既向我侧耳， 我一生要求告他。

3 The sorrows of death have surrounded me, and the perils of Hell have found me. I have found tribulation and sorrow. (Sheol h7585)

死亡的绳索缠绕我； 阴间的痛苦抓住我； 我遭遇患难愁苦。 (Sheol h7585)

4 And so, I called upon the name of the Lord. O Lord, free my soul.

那时，我便求告耶和华的名，说： 耶和华啊，求你救我的灵魂！

5 Merciful is the Lord, and just. And our God is compassionate.

耶和华有恩惠，有公义； 我们的 神以怜悯为怀。

6 The Lord is the keeper of little ones. I was humbled, and he freed me.

耶和华保护愚人； 我落到卑微的地步，他救了我。

7 Turn again, my soul, to your rest. For the Lord has done good to you.

我的心哪！你要仍归安乐， 因为耶和华用厚恩待你。

8 For he has rescued my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from slipping.

主啊，你救我的命免了死亡， 救我的眼免了流泪， 救我的脚免了跌倒。

9 I will please the Lord in the land of the living.

我要在耶和华面前行活人之路。

10 Alleluia. I had confidence, because of what I was saying, but then I was greatly humbled.

我因信，所以如此说话； 我受了极大的困苦。

11 I said in my excess, “Every man is a liar.”

我曾急促地说： 人都是说谎的！

12 What shall I repay to the Lord, for all the things that he has repaid to me?

我拿什么报答耶和华向我所赐的一切厚恩？

13 I will take up the cup of salvation, and I will call upon the name of the Lord.

我要举起救恩的杯， 称扬耶和华的名。

14 I will repay my vows to the Lord, in the sight of all his people.

我要在他众民面前向耶和华还我的愿。

15 Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his holy ones.

在耶和华眼中， 看圣民之死极为宝贵。

16 O Lord, because I am your servant, your servant and the son of your handmaid, you have broken my bonds.

耶和华啊，我真是你的仆人； 我是你的仆人，是你婢女的儿子。 你已经解开我的绑索。

17 I will sacrifice to you the sacrifice of praise, and I will invoke the name of the Lord.

我要以感谢为祭献给你， 又要求告耶和华的名。

18 I will repay my vows to the Lord in the sight of all his people,

我要在他众民面前， 在耶和华殿的院内， 在耶路撒冷当中， 向耶和华还我的愿。 你们要赞美耶和华！

19 in the courts of the house of the Lord, in your midst, O Jerusalem.
