Psalms 116

1 I have loved, because YHWH hears My voice, my supplication,

我爱耶和华， 因为他听了我的声音和我的恳求。

2 Because He has inclined His ear to me, And during my days I call.

他既向我侧耳， 我一生要求告他。

3 Cords of death have surrounded me, And straits of Sheol have found me, I find distress and sorrow. (Sheol h7585)

死亡的绳索缠绕我； 阴间的痛苦抓住我； 我遭遇患难愁苦。 (Sheol h7585)

4 And in the Name of YHWH I call: Ah, now, O YHWH, deliver my soul,

那时，我便求告耶和华的名，说： 耶和华啊，求你救我的灵魂！

5 YHWH [is] gracious, and righteous, Indeed, our God [is] merciful,

耶和华有恩惠，有公义； 我们的 神以怜悯为怀。

6 YHWH [is] a preserver of the simple, I was low, and He gives salvation to me.

耶和华保护愚人； 我落到卑微的地步，他救了我。

7 Return, O my soul, to your rest, For YHWH has conferred benefits on you.

我的心哪！你要仍归安乐， 因为耶和华用厚恩待你。

8 For You have delivered my soul from death, My eyes from tears, my feet from overthrowing.

主啊，你救我的命免了死亡， 救我的眼免了流泪， 救我的脚免了跌倒。

9 I habitually walk before YHWH In the lands of the living.

我要在耶和华面前行活人之路。

10 I have believed, for I speak, I have been greatly afflicted.

我因信，所以如此说话； 我受了极大的困苦。

11 I said in my haste, “Every man [is] a liar.”

我曾急促地说： 人都是说谎的！

12 What do I return to YHWH? All His benefits [are] on me.

我拿什么报答耶和华向我所赐的一切厚恩？

13 I lift up the cup of salvation, And in the Name of YHWH I call.

我要举起救恩的杯， 称扬耶和华的名。

14 Let me complete my vows to YHWH, Now, before all His people.

我要在他众民面前向耶和华还我的愿。

15 Precious in the eyes of YHWH [is] the death of His saints.

在耶和华眼中， 看圣民之死极为宝贵。

16 Ah, now, O YHWH, for I [am] Your servant; I [am] Your servant, son of Your handmaid; You have opened my bonds.

耶和华啊，我真是你的仆人； 我是你的仆人，是你婢女的儿子。 你已经解开我的绑索。

17 I sacrifice a sacrifice of thanks to You, And in the Name of YHWH I call.

我要以感谢为祭献给你， 又要求告耶和华的名。

18 Let me complete my vows to YHWH, Now, before all His people,

我要在他众民面前， 在耶和华殿的院内， 在耶路撒冷当中， 向耶和华还我的愿。 你们要赞美耶和华！

19 In the courts of the house of YHWH, In your midst, O Jerusalem, praise YAH!
