Psalms 38
1 A Psalm of David, to make memorial. O LORD, rebuke me not in Thine anger; neither chasten me in Thy wrath.
大卫的纪念诗。 耶和华啊，求你不要在怒中责备我， 不要在烈怒中惩罚我！
2 For Thine arrows are gone deep into me, and Thy hand is come down upon me.
因为，你的箭射入我身； 你的手压住我。
3 There is no soundness in my flesh because of Thine indignation; neither is there any health in my bones because of my sin.
因你的恼怒，我的肉无一完全； 因我的罪过，我的骨头也不安宁。
4 For mine iniquities are gone over my head; as a heavy burden they are too heavy for me.
我的罪孽高过我的头， 如同重担叫我担当不起。
5 My wounds are noisome, they fester, because of my foolishness.
因我的愚昧， 我的伤发臭流脓。
6 I am bent and bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day.
我疼痛，大大拳曲， 终日哀痛。
7 For my loins are filled with burning; and there is no soundness in my flesh.
我满腰是火； 我的肉无一完全。
8 I am benumbed and sore crushed; I groan by reason of the moaning of my heart.
我被压伤，身体疲倦； 因心里不安，我就唉哼。
9 Lord, all my desire is before Thee; and my sighing is not hid from Thee.
主啊，我的心愿都在你面前； 我的叹息不向你隐瞒。
10 My heart fluttereth, my strength faileth me; as for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me.
我心跳动，我力衰微， 连我眼中的光也没有了。
11 My friends and my companions stand aloof from my plague; and my kinsmen stand afar off.
我的良朋密友因我的灾病都躲在旁边站着； 我的亲戚本家也远远地站立。
12 They also that seek after my life lay snares for me; and they that seek my hurt speak crafty devices, and utter deceits all the day.
那寻索我命的设下网罗； 那想要害我的口出恶言， 终日思想诡计。
13 But I am as a deaf man, I hear not; and I am as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth.
但我如聋子不听， 像哑巴不开口。
14 Yea, I am become as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no arguments.
我如不听见的人， 口中没有回话。
15 For in Thee, O LORD, do I hope; Thou wilt answer, O Lord my God.
耶和华啊，我仰望你！ 主—我的 神啊，你必应允我！
16 For I said: 'Lest they rejoice over me; when my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.'
我曾说：恐怕他们向我夸耀； 我失脚的时候，他们向我夸大。
17 For I am ready to halt, and my pain is continually before me.
我几乎跌倒； 我的痛苦常在我面前。
18 For I do declare mine iniquity; I am full of care because of my sin.
我要承认我的罪孽； 我要因我的罪忧愁。
19 But mine enemies are strong in health; and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied.
但我的仇敌又活泼又强壮， 无理恨我的增多了。
20 They also that repay evil for good are adversaries unto me, because I follow the thing that is good.
以恶报善的与我作对， 因我是追求良善。
21 Forsake me not, O LORD; O my God, be not far from me.
耶和华啊，求你不要撇弃我！ 我的 神啊，求你不要远离我！
22 Make haste to help me, O LORD, my salvation.
拯救我的主啊，求你快快帮助我！
