Psalms 64

1 God, listen to me as I tell you the things that I am worried about. I am afraid of my enemies; so save/rescue me from them.

達味詩歌，交與樂官。 天主，求您傾聽我哀訴的聲音，從仇敵的恐嚇中保全我生命。

2 Protect me from what wicked men are planning to do to me; protect me from that gang of men who do what is evil.

求您掩護我遠離惡人的陰險，使我脫免作奸犯科者的暴亂；

3 The hostile things they say [MTY] are like [SIM] [sharp] swords; their cruel words are like [SIM] arrows.

他們磨礪自己的舌頭有如刀劍，他們吐出有毒的語言有如弓箭：

4 Without being afraid, they [lie about people and slander people] who have not done what is wrong, like someone who suddenly jumps up from where he is hiding and shoots [arrows] at his enemy [MET].

暗地裏向無辜的人擊撾，肆無忌憚，突然將他刺殺。

5 They encourage each other about doing the evil things that they are planning to do; they talk [with each other] about where they can set traps to catch people, and they think, “No one [RHQ] will see what we are doing,

他們彼此激勵行惡，互相商議暗佈羅網；說：看見我們的究竟是誰？

6 because we have planned very well the crime that we are going to commit!” No one can fully understand what people can think and plan!

誰能查出我們的邪思﹖我們已作成精密陰謀，走近的人必墜入深溝。

7 But [it will be as though] God will shoot his arrows at them, and suddenly they will be wounded.

但是，天主必要用箭射擊他們，他們必要突然身受創痕。

8 Because of what they say [MTY], he will get rid of them, and then everyone who sees [what has happened to] them will shake their heads [to ridicule them].

他們的舌頭必使自己跌仆，凡見到他們的人都必搖頭。

9 And then everyone will be afraid [to sin because of what might happen to them, also]; they will tell others what God has done, and they themselves will think much about it.

眾人要恐懼，要傳述天主的作為，他們也都要細心默思他的事跡。

10 Righteous people should rejoice because of what Yahweh [has done]; they should go to him to (find protection/be safe); and all those who are godly will praise him.

義人必要喜樂於上主，向他投靠，心地正直的人，必要因此而歡躍。
