Psalms 144
1 [A Psalm] of David concerning Goliad. Blessed [be] the Lord my God, who instructs my hands for battle, [and] my fingers for war.
大卫的诗。 耶和华—我的磐石是应当称颂的！ 他教导我的手争战， 教导我的指头打仗。
2 My mercy, and my refuge; my helper, and my deliverer; my protector, in whom I have trusted; who subdues my people under me.
他是我慈爱的主，我的山寨， 我的高台，我的救主， 我的盾牌，是我所投靠的； 他使我的百姓服在我以下。
3 Lord, what is man, that you are made known to him? or the son of man, that you take account of him?
耶和华啊，人算什么，你竟认识他！ 世人算什么，你竟顾念他！
4 Man is like to vanity: his days pass as a shadow.
人好像一口气； 他的年日如同影儿快快过去。
5 O Lord, bow your heavens, and come down: touch the mountains, and they shall smoke.
耶和华啊，求你使天下垂，亲自降临， 摸山，山就冒烟。
6 Send lightning, and you shall scatter them: send forth your arrows, and you shall discomfit them.
求你发出闪电，使他们四散， 射出你的箭，使他们扰乱。
7 Send forth your hand from on high; rescue me, and deliver me out of great waters, out of the hand of strange children;
求你从上伸手救拔我， 救我出离大水， 救我脱离外邦人的手。
8 whose mouth has spoken vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of iniquity.
他们的口说谎话； 他们的右手起假誓。
9 O God, I will sing a new song to you: I will play to you on a lute of ten strings.
神啊，我要向你唱新歌， 用十弦瑟向你歌颂。
10 [Even] to him who gives salvation to kings: who redeems his servant David from the hurtful sword.
你是那拯救君王的； 你是那救仆人大卫脱离害命之刀的。
11 Deliver me, and rescue me from the hand of strange children, whose mouth has spoken vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of iniquity;
求你救拔我， 救我脱离外邦人的手。 他们的口说谎话； 他们的右手起假誓。
12 whose children are as plants, strengthened in their youth: their daughters are beautiful, sumptuously adorned after the similitude of a temple.
我们的儿子从幼年好像树栽子长大； 我们的女儿如同殿角石， 是按建宫的样式凿成的。
13 Their garners are full, and bursting with one kind of store after another; their sheep are prolific, multiplying in their streets.
我们的仓盈满，能出各样的粮食； 我们的羊在田间孳生千万。
14 Their oxen are fat: there is no falling down of a hedge, nor going out, nor cry in their folds.
我们的牛驮着满驮， 没有人闯进来抢夺， 也没有人出去争战； 我们的街市上也没有哭号的声音。
15 Men bless the people to whom this lot belongs, [but] blessed is the people whose God is the Lord.
遇见这光景的百姓便为有福！ 有耶和华为他们的 神，这百姓便为有福！
