< Psalms 83 >

1 A Song, a Psalm of Asaph. O God, keep not Thou silence; hold not Thy peace, and be not still, O God.
亚萨的诗歌。 神啊，求你不要静默！ 神啊，求你不要闭口，也不要不作声！
2 For, lo, Thine enemies are in an uproar; and they that hate Thee have lifted up the head.
因为你的仇敌喧嚷， 恨你的抬起头来。
3 They hold crafty converse against Thy people, and take counsel against Thy treasured ones.
他们同谋奸诈要害你的百姓， 彼此商议要害你所隐藏的人。
4 They have said: 'Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.'
他们说：来吧，我们将他们剪灭， 使他们不再成国！ 使以色列的名不再被人记念！
5 For they have consulted together with one consent; against Thee do they make a covenant;
他们同心商议， 彼此结盟，要抵挡你，
6 The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab, and the Hagrites;
就是住帐棚的以东人和以实玛利人， 摩押和夏甲人，
7 Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre;
迦巴勒、亚扪， 和亚玛力、非利士并泰尔的居民。
8 Assyria also is joined with them; they have been an arm to the children of Lot. (Selah)
亚述也与他们连合； 他们作罗得子孙的帮手。 (细拉)
9 Do Thou unto them as unto Midian; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook Kishon;
求你待他们，如待米甸， 如在基顺河待西西拉和耶宾一样。
10 Who were destroyed at En-dor; they became as dung for the earth.
他们在隐·多珥灭亡， 成了地上的粪土。
11 Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, and like Zebah and Zalmunna all their princes;
求你叫他们的首领像俄立和西伊伯， 叫他们的王子都像西巴和撒慕拿。
12 Who said: 'Let us take to ourselves in possession the habitations of God.'
他们说：我们要得 神的住处， 作为自己的产业。
13 O my God, make them like the whirling dust; as stubble before the wind.
我的 神啊，求你叫他们像旋风的尘土， 像风前的碎秸。
14 As the fire that burneth the forest, and as the flame that setteth the mountains ablaze;
火怎样焚烧树林， 火焰怎样烧着山岭，
15 So pursue them with Thy tempest, and affright them with Thy storm.
求你也照样用狂风追赶他们， 用暴雨恐吓他们。
16 Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek Thy name, O LORD.
愿你使他们满面羞耻， 好叫他们寻求你—耶和华的名！
17 Let them be ashamed and affrighted for ever; yea, let them be abashed and perish;
愿他们永远羞愧惊惶！ 愿他们惭愧灭亡！
18 That they may know that it is Thou alone whose name is the LORD, the Most High over all the earth.
使他们知道：惟独你— 名为耶和华的—是全地以上的至高者！
