< Psalms 144 >
1 BY DAVID. Blessed [is] YHWH my Rock, Who is teaching My hands for war, My fingers for battle.
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 kind one, and my bulwark, My tower, and my deliverer, My shield, and in whom I have trusted, Who is subduing 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 YHWH, what [is] man that You know him? The son of man, that You esteem 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 has been like a breath, His days [are] as a shadow passing by.
人好像一口气; 他的年日如同影儿快快过去。
5 YHWH, incline Your heavens and come down, Strike against mountains, and they smoke.
耶和华啊,求你使天下垂,亲自降临, 摸山,山就冒烟。
6 Send forth lightning, and scatter them, Send forth Your arrows, and trouble 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, Free me, and deliver me from many waters, From the hand of sons of a stranger,
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 Because their mouth has spoken vanity, And their right hand [is] a right hand of falsehood.
他们的口说谎话; 他们的右手起假誓。
9 O God, I sing to You a new song, I sing praise to You on a stringed instrument of ten strings.
神啊,我要向你唱新歌, 用十弦瑟向你歌颂。
10 Who is giving deliverance to kings, Who is freeing His servant David from the sword of evil.
你是那拯救君王的; 你是那救仆人大卫脱离害命之刀的。
11 Free me, and deliver me From the hand of sons of a stranger, Because their mouth has spoken vanity, And their right hand [is] a right hand of falsehood,
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 Because our sons [are] as plants, Becoming great in their youth, Our daughters as hewn stones, Polished—the likeness of a palace,
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 Our granaries [are] full, bringing out from kind to kind, Our flocks are bringing forth thousands, Ten thousands in our out-places,
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 Our oxen are carrying, there is no breach, And there is no outgoing, And there is no crying in our broad places.
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 O the blessedness of the people that is thus, O the blessedness of the people whose God [is] YHWH!
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!
