Psalms 139
1 To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David. Jehovah, thou hast searched me, and known [me].
上主，您鑒察我，也認清我：
2 Thou knowest my down-sitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off;
我一舉一動，您全然認清我，您由遠處已明徹我的心思。
3 Thou searchest out my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways;
我或行走或躺臥，您已先知，我的一切行動，您都熟悉。
4 For there is not yet a word on my tongue, [but] lo, O Jehovah, thou knowest it altogether.
我的話尚未發言，上主，您已全都知曉。
5 Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thy hand upon me.
您將我前後包圍，用您的聖手將我蔭庇。
6 O knowledge too wonderful for me! it is high, I cannot [attain] unto it.
這是超越我理智的奇事，是我不能明白的妙理。
7 Whither shall I go from thy Spirit? and whither flee from thy presence?
我往何處，才能脫離您的神能？我去那裏，才能逃避您的面容？
8 If I ascend up into the heavens thou art there; or if I make my bed in Sheol, behold, thou [art there]; (Sheol h7585)
我若上升於高天，您已在那裏，我若下降於陰府，您也在那裏。 (Sheol h7585)
9 [If] I take the wings of the dawn [and] dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,
我若飛往日出的地方，我若住在海洋的西方，
10 Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.
您的雙手仍在那裏引導著我，您的聖手還在那裏扶持著我。
11 And if I say, Surely darkness shall cover me, and the light about me be night;
我若說：願黑暗把我籠罩，光明變成黑暗將我圍包；
12 Even darkness hideth not from thee, and the night shineth as the day: the darkness is as the light.
黑暗與黑夜對您並不矇矓，黑夜與白晝對您一樣光明。
13 For thou hast possessed my reins; thou didst cover me in my mother's womb.
您造成了我的五臟和六腑，您在我成胎之中締結了我。
14 I will praise thee, for I am fearfully, wonderfully made. Marvellous are thy works; and [that] my soul knoweth right well.
上主，我讚美您，因我被造驚奇神奧；您的工作千奇萬妙！我的生命，您全知曉。
15 My bones were not hidden from thee when I was made in secret, curiously wrought in the lower parts of the earth.
我何時在暗中構形，我何時在母胎造成，我的骨骸您全知情，
16 Thine eyes did see my unformed substance, and in thy book all [my members] were written; [during many] days were they fashioned, when [as yet] there was none of them.
我尚在母胎，您已親眼看見，世人的歲月尚未來到以前，都已全部記錄在冊表，都已全由您預先定好。
17 But how precious are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!
天主，您的策略，對我何其深奧！您策略的總數又是何其繁浩！
18 [If] I would count them, they are more in number than the sand. When I awake, I am still with thee.
我若去計數，而它們多於沙粒；設若數到底，我仍同您在一起。
19 Oh that thou wouldest slay the wicked, O God! And ye men of blood, depart from me.
天主，恨不得您能殺掉惡人，叫流人血的兇遠離我身！
20 For they speak of thee wickedly, they take [thy name] in vain, thine enemies.
他們無法無天地褻瀆您，他們不忠不義地攻擊您。
21 Do not I hate them, O Jehovah, that hate thee? and do not I loathe them that rise up against thee?
上主，憎恨您的人，我怎能不痛惡？上主，背叛您的人，我怎能不厭惡？
22 I hate them with perfect hatred; I account them mine enemies.
我對他們深惡痛棄，視他們為我的仇敵。
23 Search me, O God, and know my heart; prove me, and know my thoughts;
天主，求您檢察我，洞知我的心曲；天主，求您考驗我，明悉我的思慮。
24 And see if there be any grievous way in me; and lead me in the way everlasting.
求您察看我，我是否走入岐途，求您引導我邁向上永生的道路。
