< Psalms 36 >
1 For the music director. A psalm of David, servant of the Lord. Evil speaks to the wicked, deep down in their minds, for in their eyes they have no need to respect God.
耶和华的仆人大卫的诗,交与伶长。 恶人的罪过在他心里说: 我眼中不怕 神!
2 In their own eyes they're so wonderful that they can't even see their sin and do something about it.
他自夸自媚, 以为他的罪孽终不显露,不被恨恶。
3 Whatever they say is deceptive and deceitful. They no longer do anything wisely or for good.
他口中的言语尽是罪孽诡诈; 他与智慧善行已经断绝。
4 Even when they're lying in bed they think up evil schemes. They commit themselves to a way of life that is no good. They choose evil, and don't reject it.
他在床上图谋罪孽, 定意行不善的道,不憎恶恶事。
5 Lord, your faithful love reaches to the heavens, your trustworthiness to the clouds.
耶和华啊,你的慈爱上及诸天; 你的信实达到穹苍。
6 Your goodness is like the highest mountains, your fairness is like the deepest oceans. Lord, you save both the people and the animals.
你的公义好像高山; 你的判断如同深渊。 耶和华啊,人民、牲畜,你都救护。
7 God, how priceless is your trustworthy love! Everyone can find protection under the shelter of your wings.
神啊,你的慈爱何其宝贵! 世人投靠在你翅膀的荫下。
8 They gain strength from the wonderful food you provide in your house; you give them drink from your refreshing river.
他们必因你殿里的肥甘得以饱足; 你也必叫他们喝你乐河的水。
9 You are the source of life; you are the light by which we see.
因为,在你那里有生命的源头; 在你的光中,我们必得见光。
10 Extend your trustworthy love to those who know you, and your goodness to those who truly live right.
愿你常施慈爱给认识你的人, 常以公义待心里正直的人。
11 Don't let the arrogant trample me down; don't let the wicked drive me out.
不容骄傲人的脚践踏我; 不容凶恶人的手赶逐我。
12 Now look! See how those who do evil have fallen—thrown down, unable to get up.
在那里,作孽的人已经仆倒; 他们被推倒,不能再起来。
