Psalms 32

1 AN INSTRUCTION OF DAVID. O the blessedness of him whose transgression [is] forgiven, Whose sin is covered.

罪惡蒙赦免，過犯得遮掩的人，有福的。

2 O the blessedness of a man, To whom YHWH does not impute iniquity, And in whose spirit there is no deceit.

上主不歸咎，心中無詐欺的人是有福的。

3 When I have kept silence, my bones have become old, Through my roaring all the day.

就在我緘默不語的時期內，我的骸因常傷歎而疲衰；

4 When by day and by night Your hand is heavy on me, My moisture has been changed Into the droughts of summer. (Selah)

因為你的手晝夜在重壓著我，我的力量像在盛暑中而消耗。（休止）

5 I cause You to know my sin, And I have not covered my iniquity. I have said, “I confess to YHWH concerning My transgressions,” And You have taken away the iniquity of my sin. (Selah)

我終於向你承認我的罪過，絲毫也沒有隱瞞我的邪惡，我說：「我要向上主承認我的罪孽，」你立刻便寬赦了我的罪債。（休止）

6 For every saintly one prays this to You, In the time to find [You]. Surely at an overflowing of many waters, They do not come to him.

為此虔敬的人在困厄時，都應向你哀禱，縱使大水氾濫成災，他也不會遭受波濤。

7 You [are] a hiding place for me, You keep me from distress, Surround me [with] songs of deliverance. (Selah)

你是我的避難所，救我脫離災禍，你以拯救我的喜樂，常環繞著我。（休止）

8 I cause you to act wisely, And direct you in the way that you go, I cause My eye to take counsel concerning you.

我教導你，指示你應走的正道，雙眼注視你，親自作你的嚮導。

9 Do not be as a horse—as a mule, Without understanding, With bridle and bit, its ornaments, to curb, Not to come near to you.

不要像騾馬一般糊塗，需要韁轡來加以管束；不然，不向你眼前趨赴。

10 Many [are] the pains of the wicked; As for him who is trusting in YHWH, Kindness surrounds him.

邪惡的人必要受許多的痛苦；仰望上主的人，必有慈愛圍護，

11 Be glad in YHWH, and rejoice, you righteous, And sing, all you upright of heart!

正義的人們！你們應在上主內歡欣喜樂。 心正的人們！你們應在上主內歡呼踴躍。
