< Psalms 33 >

1 Sing, you righteous, in YHWH, [For] praise from upright ones [is] lovely.
义人哪,你们应当靠耶和华欢乐; 正直人的赞美是合宜的。
2 Give thanks to YHWH with a harp, With stringed instrument of ten strings sing praise to Him,
你们应当弹琴称谢耶和华, 用十弦瑟歌颂他。
3 Sing to Him a new song, Play skillfully with shouting.
应当向他唱新歌, 弹得巧妙,声音洪亮。
4 For the word of YHWH [is] upright, And all His work [is] in faithfulness.
因为耶和华的言语正直; 凡他所做的尽都诚实。
5 Loving righteousness and judgment, The earth is full of the kindness of YHWH.
他喜爱仁义公平; 遍地满了耶和华的慈爱。
6 By the word of YHWH The heavens have been made, And all their host by the breath of His mouth.
诸天借耶和华的命而造; 万象借他口中的气而成。
7 Gathering the waters of the sea as a heap, Putting the depths in treasuries.
他聚集海水如垒, 收藏深洋在库房。
8 All the earth is afraid of YHWH, All the inhabitants of the world are afraid of Him.
愿全地都敬畏耶和华! 愿世上的居民都惧怕他!
9 For He has spoken, and it is, He has commanded, and it stands.
因为他说有,就有, 命立,就立。
10 YHWH made void the counsel of nations, He disallowed the thoughts of the peoples.
耶和华使列国的筹算归于无有, 使众民的思念无有功效。
11 The counsel of YHWH stands for all time, The thoughts of His heart from generation to generation.
耶和华的筹算永远立定; 他心中的思念万代常存。
12 O the blessedness of the nation whose God [is] YHWH, Of the people He chose, For an inheritance to Him.
以耶和华为 神的,那国是有福的! 他所拣选为自己产业的,那民是有福的!
13 YHWH has looked from the heavens, He has seen all the sons of men.
耶和华从天上观看; 他看见一切的世人。
14 From the fixed place of His dwelling, He looked to all inhabitants of the earth;
从他的居所往外察看地上一切的居民—
15 Who is forming their hearts together, Who is attending to all their works.
他是那造成他们众人心的, 留意他们一切作为的。
16 The king is not saved by the multitude of a force. A mighty man is not delivered, By abundance of power.
君王不能因兵多得胜; 勇士不能因力大得救。
17 A false thing [is] the horse for safety, And he does not deliver By the abundance of his strength.
靠马得救是枉然的; 马也不能因力大救人。
18 Behold, the eye of YHWH [is] to those fearing Him, To those waiting for His kindness,
耶和华的眼目看顾敬畏他的人 和仰望他慈爱的人,
19 To deliver their soul from death, And to keep them alive in famine.
要救他们的命脱离死亡, 并使他们在饥荒中存活。
20 Our soul has waited for YHWH, He [is] our help and our shield,
我们的心向来等候耶和华; 他是我们的帮助,我们的盾牌。
21 For our heart rejoices in Him, For we have trusted in His Holy Name.
我们的心必靠他欢喜, 因为我们向来倚靠他的圣名。
22 Let Your kindness, O YHWH, be on us, As we have waited for You!
耶和华啊,求你照着我们所仰望你的, 向我们施行慈爱!
