Psalms 3
1 Yahweh, I have many enemies [DOU]! There are many people who oppose/rebel against me.
【困苦人的祈禱】 達味詩歌，作於逃避其子阿貝沙隆時。 上主，迫害我的人，不可勝數! 攻擊我的人，成群結隊！
2 Many people are saying about me, “God will [certainly] not help him!”
很多人論及我說：天主絕不拯救他！
3 But Yahweh, you are like a shield [that protects me] [MET]. You greatly honor me, and you encourage me (OR, enable me to triumph over my enemies) [IDM].
但是你，上主，是圍護我的盾牌，是我的榮耀，常使我首昂頭抬。
4 I cry out to you, Yahweh, and you answer me from [Zion], your sacred hill.
我一向上主大聲呼號，祂便從聖山上俯聽我。
5 [At night] I lie down and sleep, and I awake [in the morning feeling good/refreshed] because you, Yahweh, (take care of/protect) me [all during the night].
我躺下安睡，我又醒了，因為上主常扶持著我。
6 There may be thousands of [enemy] soldiers who surround me, but I am not afraid.
雖有千萬人，向我圍攻，我一絲一毫也不驚恐。
7 Yahweh, arise! My God, [come and] rescue me [again]! You [insult] my enemies by slapping them on their cheeks; [when you strike them], you break their teeth, [with the result that they cannot hurt anyone] [MET].
上主，請你興起奮發；我的天主，求你救拔，因為你擊破了我仇敵的腮頰，你打破眾惡人的門牙。
8 Yahweh, you are the one who saves your people [from their enemies]. Yahweh, bless your people!
救援之恩完全屬於上主；願你的百姓受你的祝福！
