Psalms 27
1 BY DAVID. YHWH [is] my light and my salvation, Whom do I fear? YHWH [is] the strength of my life, Of whom am I afraid?
上主是我的光明，我的救援，我還畏懼何人﹖ 上主是我生命穩固的保障，我還害怕何人﹖
2 When evildoers come near to me to eat my flesh, My adversaries and my enemies to me, They have stumbled and fallen.
當惡人前來攻擊我，要吃我的肉時，我的對手，我的仇敵，反而跌倒斷氣。
3 Though a host encamps against me, My heart does not fear, Though war rises up against me, In this I [am] confident.
雖有大軍向我進攻，我的心毫不戰慄；雖然戰爭向我迫近，我依然滿懷依恃。
4 One [thing] I asked of YHWH—it I seek: My dwelling in the house of YHWH, All the days of my life, To look on the pleasantness of YHWH, And to inquire in His temple.
我有一事祈求上主，我要懇切請求此事：使我一生的歲月，常居住在上主的殿裏，欣賞上主的甘飴慈祥，瞻仰上主聖所的堂皇。
5 For He hides me in a dwelling place in the day of evil, He hides me in a secret place of His tent, He raises me up on a rock.
因為在我困難的時他日，祂將我藏在祂的帳棚裏；將我藏在祂帳幕的深處，並將我高舉放在磐石。
6 And now my head is lifted up, Above my enemies—my surrounders, And I sacrifice in His tent sacrifices of shouting, I sing, indeed, I sing praise to YHWH.
現在我可昂首抬頭，卑視我周圍的仇人；我要在上主的帳幕裏，奉獻歡樂之祭，要向上主歡唱讚美的詩詞。
7 Hear, O YHWH, my voice—I call, And favor me, and answer me.
上主，求你俯聽我的呼號，上主，求你憐憫我，垂允我。
8 My heart said to You, “They sought my face, Your face, O YHWH, I seek.”
論及你，我心中時常在想：你應該尋求祂的儀容。
9 Do not hide Your face from me, Do not turn Your servant aside in anger, You have been my help. Do not leave me, nor forsake me, O God of my salvation.
求你不要向我掩住你的臉，你發怒時不要趕散你僕人。你向來就是我唯一的救援；救我的天主，不要棄我不管。
10 When my father and my mother Have forsaken me, then YHWH gathers me.
我的父母雖捨棄了我，然而上主卻收留了我。
11 Show me, O YHWH, Your way, And lead me in a path of uprightness, For the sake of my beholders.
上主，求你給我指示你的正路，為了我的仇敵，我踏上了坦途。
12 Do not give me to the will of my adversaries, For false witnesses have risen against me, And they breathe out violence to me.
求你不要將我交於仇人的私慾，因為殘暴的假見證來向我攻擊。
13 I had not believed to look on the goodness of YHWH In the land of the living!
我深信在此活人的地區，必定會享見上主的幸福。
14 Look to YHWH—be strong, And He strengthens your heart, Indeed, look to YHWH!
你要鼓起勇氣，期望上主！你要振作精神，期望上主！
