< Psalms 7 >

1 A SHIGGAION OF DAVID, THAT HE SUNG TO YHWH CONCERNING THE WORDS OF CUSH, A BENJAMITE. O YHWH, my God, in You I have trusted, Save me from all my pursuers, and deliver me.
【苦中投奔於主】 達味有感於本雅明族人的話,向上主唱流離之歌。 上主,我的天主!我一心投奔你;求你助我逃脫一切追逐我的人,求你救拔我;
2 Lest he tear my soul as a lion, Tearing, and there is no deliverer.
免得有人像獅子一般撕裂我時,無人搭救我。
3 O YHWH, my God, if I have done this, If there is iniquity in my hands,
上主!如果我真做了這事,我主!在我手中就真有罪!
4 If I have done my well-wisher evil, And draw my adversary without cause,
我若真加害過我的友好,或無故把我的仇敵劫掠;
5 [Then] an enemy pursues my soul, and overtakes, And treads down my life to the earth, And places my glory in the dust. (Selah)
就讓敵人追逐我,擒獲我,把我的性命踐踏在污地,將我的光榮歸諸於泥灰。
6 Rise, O YHWH, in Your anger, Be lifted up at the wrath of my adversaries, And awake Yourself for me: You have commanded judgment.
上主,求你震怒奮起,前來克制我仇的暴慢。我的天主,求你醒起助我,施行你定的斷案。
7 And a congregation of peoples surround You, And over it turn back on high.
願萬民聚齊環繞著你。願你回駕由高處鑒視。
8 YHWH judges the peoples; Judge me, O YHWH, According to my righteousness, And according to my integrity [that is] on me.
上主,萬民的審判者! 上主,請照我的正義,請按我的無罪,護衛我的權利。
9 Please let the evil of the wicked be ended, And establish the righteous, And a trier of hearts and reins is the righteous God.
公義的天主! 惟你洞察肺腑和人心,願惡人的毒害停止,求你堅固義人!
10 My shield [is] on God, Savior of the upright in heart!
天主是我的護盾,給心正的人助陣。
11 God [is] judging right, And He is not angry at all times.
天主是公義的審判者,對怙惡的人終日怒嚇。
12 If [one] does not turn, He sharpens His sword, He has bent His bow [and] He prepares it,
仇人雖然磨刀擦劍,開弓拉弦準備射箭;
13 Indeed, He has prepared for Himself Instruments of death, He makes His arrows for burning pursuers.
那只是為自己預備死亡的武器,為自己製造帶火的箭矢。
14 Behold, he travails [with] iniquity, And he has conceived perverseness, And has brought forth falsehood.
試看,他既孕惡懷毒,自然就要產生虛無,
15 He has prepared a pit, and he digs it, And he falls into a ditch he makes.
他挖掘坑穴,擺布陷阱,勢必落在自備的窖中。
16 His perverseness returns on his head, And his violence comes down on his crown.
他的兇惡必反轉到自己頭上,他的橫暴必降落在自己的頂上。
17 I thank YHWH, According to His righteousness, And I praise the Name of YHWH Most High!
我要稱謝上主的公道,歌頌至高上主的名號。
