< Psalms 132 >

1 A Song of Ascents. Remember, O Yahweh, unto David, all his humiliations!
上行之诗。 耶和华啊，求你记念大卫所受的一切苦难！
2 What he Sware to Yahweh, —Vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:
他怎样向耶和华起誓， 向雅各的大能者许愿，
3 Surely I will not enter the home of my own house, nor ascend my curtained couch;
说：我必不进我的帐幕， 也不上我的床榻；
4 I will not give sleep to mine eyes, nor, to mine eye-lashes, slumber:
我不容我的眼睛睡觉， 也不容我的眼目打盹；
5 Until I find a place for Yahweh, habitations for the Mighty One of Jacob.
直等我为耶和华寻得所在， 为雅各的大能者寻得居所。
6 Lo! we heard of it at Ephrathah, we found it in the fields of the wood.
我们听说约柜在以法他， 我们在基列·耶琳就寻见了。
7 We would enter his habitations, we would bow down at his footstool.
我们要进他的居所， 在他脚凳前下拜。
8 Arise! O Yahweh, unto thy place of rest, Thou, and the ark of thy strength.
耶和华啊，求你兴起， 和你有能力的约柜同入安息之所！
9 Thy priests, let them be clothed with righteousness, Thy men of lovingkindness, let them shout for joy!
愿你的祭司披上公义！ 愿你的圣民欢呼！
10 For the sake of David thy servant, do not turn away the face of thine Anointed One.
求你因你仆人大卫的缘故， 不要厌弃你的受膏者！
11 Yahweh hath sworn unto David, in faithfulness, will he not turn from it, —Of the fruit of thy body, will I seat on thy throne.
耶和华向大卫、凭诚实起了誓， 必不反复，说： 我要使你所生的 坐在你的宝座上。
12 If thy sons keep my covenant, and my testimony which I will teach them, even their sons, unto futurity, shall sit on thy throne.
你的众子若守我的约 和我所教训他们的法度， 他们的子孙必永远坐在你的宝座上。
13 For Yahweh hath chosen Zion, —He hath desired it as a dwelling for himself:
因为耶和华拣选了锡安， 愿意当作自己的居所，
14 This, is my place of rest unto futurity, Here, will I dwell, for I have desired it;
说：这是我永远安息之所； 我要住在这里， 因为是我所愿意的。
15 Her provision, will I abundantly bless, Her needy ones, will I satisfy with bread;
我要使其中的粮食丰满， 使其中的穷人饱足。
16 And, her priests, will I clothe with salvation, and, her men of lovingkindness, shall, shout aloud, for joy;
我要使祭司披上救恩， 圣民大声欢呼！
17 There, will I cause to bud a horn to David, I have prepared a lamp for mine Anointed One;
我要叫大卫的角在那里发生； 我为我的受膏者预备明灯。
18 His enemies, will I clothe with shame, but, upon himself, shall his crown be resplendent.
我要使他的仇敌披上羞耻； 但他的冠冕要在头上发光。
