< Psalms 86 >
1 A Prayer of David. Incline thine ear, Jehovah, answer me; for I am afflicted and needy.
詠【信靠的祈禱】 達味的祈禱。
2 Keep my soul, for I am godly; O thou my God, save thy servant who confideth in thee.
上主,求您側耳俯聽我,因為我可憐而又無靠。
3 Be gracious unto me, O Lord; for unto thee do I call all the day.
求您保護我的靈魂,因為我熱愛您,求您保佑您的僕人,因為我仰望您。
4 Rejoice the soul of thy servant; for unto thee, Lord, do I lift up my soul.
您是我的天主,求您憐憫我;上主,因為我時常向您禱告。
5 For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive, and art of great loving-kindness unto all that call upon thee.
求您使您的僕人的心靈歡欣。上主,我向您舉起我的心神。
6 Give ear, O Jehovah, unto my prayer, and attend to the voice of my supplications.
我主,因為您又良善又寬仁,凡呼求您的人,您必對他寬仁;
7 In the day of my distress I will call upon thee, for thou wilt answer me.
上主,求您俯聽我的祈禱,求您細聽我懇求的禱告。
8 Among the gods there is none like unto thee, Lord, and there is nothing like unto thy works.
我在遭難時向您呼喊,因為您一定會俯允我。
9 All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee, O Lord, and shall glorify thy name.
上主,沒有任何一個神能與您相似,沒有誰的作為能與您的作為相比。
10 For thou art great, and doest wondrous things: thou art God, thou alone.
上主,您所造的萬民一齊來到,他們崇拜您,並宣揚您的名號。
11 Teach me thy way, Jehovah; I will walk in thy truth: unite my heart to fear thy name.
因為您是偉大的,獨行奇謀,只是您是惟一無二的天主。
12 I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with my whole heart; and I will glorify thy name for evermore.
上主,求您教訓我您的途徑,使我照您的真理去行;求您指引我心,敬愛您的名;我的天主,我要全心向您讚頌,上主,我要光榮您的聖名。
13 For great is thy loving-kindness toward me, and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest Sheol. (Sheol )
因為您對我的仁愛浩大無邊,救援我的靈魂,免陷極深陰間。 (Sheol )
14 O God, the proud are risen against me, and the assembly of the violent seek after my soul, and they have not set thee before them.
天主,驕傲的人起來將我欺凌,蠻橫的一群人想害我的性命,也沒有將您放在他們的眼中。
15 But thou, Lord, art a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in goodness and truth.
但是上主,您是良善又慈悲的天主,您緩於發怒,極其寬仁又極其忠恕。
16 Turn toward me, and be gracious unto me; give thy strength unto thy servant, and save the son of thine handmaid.
求您回顧我,求您憐憫我,將您的能力賜給您的僕役,救拔您婢女所生的兒子!
17 Shew me a token for good, that they which hate me may see it, and be ashamed; for thou, Jehovah, hast helped me and comforted me.
求您將您愛護的記號指示給我,使惱恨我的人看到羞愧難過。因為您緩助了我。
