Psalms 30

1 A Psalm of David: dedication-song of the house. I will extol thee, Jehovah; for thou hast delivered me, and hast not made mine enemies to rejoice over me.

【病後感恩歌】 聖殿祝聖的詩歌，達味作。 上主，我稱揚你，因為你救拔了我，你也沒有使我的仇敵向我自誇。

2 Jehovah my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me.

上主，我一向你呼號，我主，你便醫治了我。

3 Jehovah, thou hast brought up my soul from Sheol, thou hast quickened me from among those that go down to the pit. (Sheol h7585)

上主，你由陰府中把我救出，又使我安全復生，免降幽谷。 (Sheol h7585)

4 Sing psalms unto Jehovah, ye saints of his, and give thanks in remembrance of his holiness.

上主的聖民，請向上主歌頌，稱謝上主的聖名。

5 For a moment [is passed] in his anger, a life in his favour; at even weeping cometh for the night, and at morn there is rejoicing.

因為上主的忿怒，瞬息消散；上主的恩愛卻要終生綿延。晚間雖令人哭涕，清晨卻使人歡喜。

6 As for me, I said in my prosperity, I shall never be moved.

我曾自誇說過，我永不會動搖。

7 Jehovah, by thy favour thou hadst made my mountain to stand strong: thou didst hide thy face; I was troubled.

上主，你恩待我，使我立足於穩固山岡；但是你一掩面，我便立刻感到失措驚惶。

8 I called to thee, Jehovah, and unto the Lord did I make supplication:

上主，我曾向你呼號，我曾向我主哀求說：

9 What profit is there in my blood, in my going down to the pit? shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth?

我如果降入陰府，我的血於你何益？灰土豈能讚美你，或宣揚你的忠義？

10 Hear, O Jehovah, and be gracious unto me; Jehovah, be my helper.

上主，請俯聽我，憐憫我；上主，求你前來助佑我。

11 Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing; thou hast loosed my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;

你把我的哀痛，給我變成了舞蹈，脫去了我的苦衣給我披上喜樂；

12 That [my] glory may sing psalms of thee, and not be silent. Jehovah my God, I will praise thee for ever.

為此，我的心靈歌頌你，永不止息；上主，我的天主，我要永遠稱謝你！
