Psalms 31
1 Yahweh, I have come to you to be protected; do not allow me to be [defeated, with the result that I am] disgraced. Since you always do what is fair/right, rescue me!
伶長にうたはしめたるダビデのうた ヱホバよわれ汝によりたのむ 願くはいづれの日までも愧をおはしめたまふなかれ なんぢの義をもてわれを助けたまへ
2 Listen to me, and save me right now! Be [like] a huge rock [under which I can hide] [MET] and [like] a strong fort in which I will be safe.
なんぢの耳をかたぶけて速かにわれをすくひたまへ 願くはわがためにかたき磐となり我をすくふ保障の家となりたまへ
3 Yes, you are [like] my huge rock and my fort; guide me and lead me [DOU] in order that I can honor you [MTY].
なんぢはわが磐わが城なり されば名のゆゑをもてわれを引われを導きたまへ
4 You are the one who protects me, so keep me from falling into the hidden traps [that my enemies have set for me].
なんぢ我をかれらが密かにまうけたる網よりひきいだしたまへ なんぢはわが保砦なり
5 Yahweh, you are a God who can be trusted, so I put myself into your care because you rescued me.
われ霊魂をなんぢの手にゆだぬ ヱホバまことの神よなんぢはわれを贖ひたまへり
6 Yahweh, I hate those who worship useless idols, but I trust in you.
われはいつはりの虚きことに心をよする者をにくむ われは獨ヱホバによりたのむなり
7 I will be very glad [DOU] because you faithfully love me. You see me when I have been afflicted, and you have known when I have had troubles.
我はなんぢの憐憫をよろこびたのしまん なんぢわが艱難をかへりみ わがたましひの禍害をしり
8 You have not allowed my enemies to capture me; instead, you have rescued me from danger.
われを仇の手にとぢこめしめたまはず わが足をひろきところに立たまへばなり
9 [But now], Yahweh, be kind to me [again] because I am distressed. Because I cry [so much], I cannot see well, and I am completely exhausted.
われ迫りくるしめり ヱホバよ我をあはれみたまへ わが目はうれひによりておとろふ 霊魂も身もまた衰へぬ
10 I have become very weak because I am [so] miserable, and it is causing my life to become shorter. I have become weak because of all my troubles; even my bones are becoming weaker.
わが生命はかなしみによりて消えゆき わが年華はなげきによりて消ゆけばなり わが力はわが不義によりておとろへ わが骨はかれはてたり
11 All of my enemies make fun of me, and [even] my neighbors despise me. [Even] my friends are afraid of me [because they think I am being punished by God], and when they see me on the streets, they run away.
われもろもろの仇ゆゑにそしらる わが隣にはわけて甚だし相識ものには忌憚られ衢にてわれを見るもの避てのがる
12 People have forgotten me like they forget people who are dead. [They think I am as useless] as a broken pot.
われは死たるもののごとく忘られて人のこころに置れず われはやぶれたる器もののごとくなれり
13 I have heard people slandering me, and they have caused me to become terrified. My enemies are making plans in order to kill me.
そは我おほくの人のそしりをきい到るところに懼あり かれら我にさからひて互にはかりしが わが生命をさへとらんと企てたり
14 But Yahweh, I trust in you. You are my God.
されどヱホバよわれ汝によりたのめり また汝はわが神なりといへり
15 My whole life [MTY] is in your hands; save me from my enemies, from those who pursue me.
わが時はすべてなんぢの手にあり ねがはくはわれを仇の手よりたすけ われに追迫るものより助けいだしたまへ
16 Be kind to me and rescue me because you always faithfully love me.
なんぢの僕のうへに聖顔をかがやかせ なんぢの仁慈をもて我をすくひたまヘ
17 Yahweh, I call out to you, so do not allow me to be disgraced. I desire that wicked people will be disgraced; I want them to [soon die and] go down to the place where the dead people are. (Sheol h7585)
ヱホバよわれに愧をおはしめ給ふなかれ そは我なんぢをよべばなり 願くはあしきものに恥をうけしめ陰府にありて口をつぐましめ給へ (Sheol h7585)
18 I desire that you will cause people [MTY] who tell lies to be unable to speak. Do that to people who are proud and those who arrogantly accuse righteous people.
傲慢と軽侮とをもて義きものにむかひ妄りにののしるいつはりの口唇をつぐましめたまへ
19 You have stored up many blessings for those who revere you. You do those good things for those who go to you to be protected; everyone sees you doing that.
汝をおそるる者のためにたくはへ なんぢに依頼むもののために人の子のまへにてほどこしたまへる汝のいつくしみは大なるかな
20 You hide people in your presence where it is safe, and protect them from people who plot [to kill them]. You hide them in safe places from their enemies [MTY] who accuse/insult them.
汝かれらを御前なるひそかなる所にかくして人の謀略よりまぬかれしめ また行宮のうちにひそませて舌のあらそひをさけしめたまはん
21 Praise Yahweh! When my enemies surrounded the city [in which I was living], he showed me in a wonderful way that he faithfully loves me.
讃べきかなヱホバは堅固なる城のなかにて奇しまるるばかりの仁慈をわれに顕したまへり
22 I was afraid, and I cried out, “I have been separated from Yahweh!” but you heard me and answered my cry for help.
われ驚きあわてていへらく なんぢの目のまへより絶れたりと 然どわれ汝によびもとめしとき汝わがねがひの聲をききたまへり
23 You people who belong to Yahweh, love him! Those who are loyal to him, he protects, but those who are very proud, he punishes them severely like they deserve to be punished.
なんぢらもろもろの聖徒よヱホバをいつくしめ ヱホバは眞實あるものをまもり傲慢者におもく報をほどこしたまふ
24 You who confidently expect Yahweh [to do great things for you], be strong, be courageous!
すべてヱホバを侯望むものよ雄々しかれ なんぢら心をかたうせよ
