Psalms 13

1 For the Leader. A Psalm of David. How long, O LORD, wilt Thou forget me for ever? How long wilt Thou hide Thy face from me?

【急難中的哭訴】達味詩歌，交與樂官。

2 How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart by day? How long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?

上主，你把我全然遺忘，要到何時？上主，你掩面而不顧我，要到何時？

3 Behold Thou, and answer me, O LORD my God; lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;

我的心情終日愁悵，要到何時？我的仇敵高居我上，要到何時？

4 Lest mine enemy say: 'I have prevailed against him'; lest mine adversaries rejoice when I am moved.

上主，我的天主! 求你垂顧回答我；賜我眼目明亮，別讓我沉睡而亡。

5 But as for me, in Thy mercy do I trust; my heart shall rejoice in Thy salvation.

免得我的仇人說：「我已打了勝仗! 」免得我跌倒之時，敵人歡欣若狂。

6 I will sing unto the LORD, because He hath dealt bountifully with me.

我今信賴你的愛憐；我心歡愉你的救援；我要向我恩主歌讚。
