< Psalms 25 >
1 Unto the end. A Psalm of David. To you, Lord, I have lifted up my soul.
大衛的詩。 耶和華啊,我的心仰望你。
2 In you, my God, I trust. Let me not be put to shame.
我的上帝啊,我素來倚靠你; 求你不要叫我羞愧, 不要叫我的仇敵向我誇勝。
3 And do not let my enemies laugh at me. For all who remain with you will not be confounded.
凡等候你的必不羞愧; 惟有那無故行奸詐的必要羞愧。
4 May all those who act unjustly over nothing be confounded. O Lord, demonstrate your ways to me, and teach me your paths.
耶和華啊,求你將你的道指示我, 將你的路教訓我!
5 Direct me in your truth, and teach me. For you are God, my Savior, and I remain with you all day long.
求你以你的真理引導我,教訓我, 因為你是救我的上帝。 我終日等候你。
6 O Lord, remember your compassion and your mercies, which are from ages past.
耶和華啊,求你記念你的憐憫和慈愛, 因為這是亙古以來所常有的。
7 Do not remember the offenses of my youth and my ignorances. Remember me according to your mercy, because of your goodness, O Lord.
求你不要記念我幼年的罪愆和我的過犯; 耶和華啊,求你因你的恩惠,按你的慈愛記念我。
8 The Lord is sweet and righteous. Because of this, he will grant a law to those who fall short in the way.
耶和華是良善正直的, 所以他必指示罪人走正路。
9 He will direct the mild in judgment. He will teach the meek his ways.
他必按公平引領謙卑人, 將他的道教訓他們。
10 All the ways of the Lord are mercy and truth, to those who yearn for his covenant and his testimonies.
凡遵守他的約和他法度的人, 耶和華都以慈愛誠實待他。
11 Because of your name, O Lord, you will pardon my sin, for it is great.
耶和華啊,求你因你的名赦免我的罪, 因為我的罪重大。
12 Which is the man who fears the Lord? He has established a law for him, on the way that he has chosen.
誰敬畏耶和華, 耶和華必指示他當選擇的道路。
13 His soul will dwell upon good things, and his offspring will inherit the earth.
他必安然居住; 他的後裔必承受地土。
14 The Lord is a firmament to those who fear him, and his covenant will be made manifest to them.
耶和華與敬畏他的人親密; 他必將自己的約指示他們。
15 My eyes are ever toward the Lord, for he will pull my feet from the snare.
我的眼目時常仰望耶和華, 因為他必將我的腳從網裏拉出來。
16 Look upon me and have mercy on me; for I am alone and poor.
求你轉向我,憐恤我, 因為我是孤獨困苦。
17 The troubles of my heart have been multiplied. Deliver me from my needfulness.
我心裏的愁苦甚多, 求你救我脫離我的禍患。
18 See my lowliness and my hardship, and release all my offenses.
求你看顧我的困苦,我的艱難, 赦免我一切的罪。
19 Consider my enemies, for they have been multiplied, and they have hated me with an unjust hatred.
求你察看我的仇敵, 因為他們人多,並且痛痛地恨我。
20 Preserve my soul and rescue me. I will not be ashamed, for I have hoped in you.
求你保護我的性命,搭救我, 使我不致羞愧,因為我投靠你。
21 The innocent and the righteous have adhered to me, because I have remained with you.
願純全、正直保守我, 因為我等候你。
22 Free Israel, O God, from all his tribulations.
上帝啊,求你救贖以色列脫離他一切的愁苦。
