< Psalms 64 >

1 TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID. Hear, O God, my voice, in my (meditation) You keep my life from the fear of an enemy,
大衛的詩,交與伶長。 上帝啊,我哀歎的時候,求你聽我的聲音! 求你保護我的性命,不受仇敵的驚恐!
2 Hide me from the secret counsel of evildoers, From the tumult of workers of iniquity.
求你把我隱藏, 使我脫離作惡之人的暗謀和作孽之人的擾亂。
3 Who sharpened their tongue as a sword, They directed their arrow—a bitter word.
他們磨舌如刀, 發出苦毒的言語,好像比準了的箭,
4 To shoot the perfect in secret places, Suddenly they shoot him, and do not fear.
要在暗地射完全人; 他們忽然射他,並不懼怕。
5 They strengthen an evil thing for themselves, They recount of the hiding of snares, They have said, “Who looks at it?”
他們彼此勉勵設下惡計; 他們商量暗設網羅, 說:誰能看見?
6 They search out perverse things, “We perfected a searching search,” And the inward part of man, and the heart, [are] deep.
他們圖謀奸惡, 說:我們是極力圖謀的。 他們各人的意念心思是深的。
7 And God shoots them [with] an arrow, Their wounds have been sudden,
但上帝要射他們; 他們忽然被箭射傷。
8 And they cause him to stumble, Their own tongue [is] against them, Every looker on them flees away.
他們必然絆跌,被自己的舌頭所害; 凡看見他們的必都搖頭。
9 And all men fear, and declare the work of God, And they have wisely considered His deed.
眾人都要害怕, 要傳揚上帝的工作, 並且明白他的作為。
10 The righteous rejoice in YHWH, And have trusted in Him, And all the upright of heart boast!
義人必因耶和華歡喜, 並要投靠他; 凡心裏正直的人都要誇口。
