Psalms 85

1 Yahweh, you have been kind to [us people who live in] this land; you have enabled [us] Israeli people to become prosperous again.

詠【求賜平安與幸福】 科辣黑子孫的詩歌，交於樂官。 天主，您對您的地域已加垂憐，且將雅各伯的命改善；

2 You forgave [us], your people, for the sins that we had committed; you pardoned [us] for all our sins [DOU].

赦免了您百姓的罪愆，遮掩了他們所有的過犯；

3 You stopped being angry [with us] and turned away from severely punishing [us].

抑制了您怒氣的火燄。

4 Now, God, the one who saves/rescues us, (restore us/make us prosperous again) and stop being angry with us!

天主，我們的救主，求您復興我們，求您從我們身上消除您的氣憤。

5 (Will you continue to be angry with us forever?/Please do not continue to be angry with us forever.) [DOU, RHQ]

您豈能永遠向我們發怒？世世代代發洩您的憤怒？

6 Please enable us [RHQ] to prosper again in order that [we], your people, will rejoice about what you [have done for us].

難道不是您使我們復生？使您的子民因您而歡欣？

7 Yahweh, by rescuing us [from our troubles/difficulties], show us that you faithfully love us.

上主，求您向我們顯示您的救恩。

8 I want to listen to what Yahweh [our] God says, because he promises/says that he will enable [us], his people, to live peacefully, if we do not return to doing foolish things.

我要聽天主上主說的話：祂向自己的聖者和子民，以及向祂回心轉意的人，所說的話確實是和平綸音。

9 He is surely ready to save/rescue those who revere him, in order that [his] glory/splendor will be seen in our land.

祂的救恩必接近敬箋愛祂的人，為使我們在地上久存。

10 [When that happens], he will both faithfully love us and faithfully [do for us what he promised to do] [PRS]; and we will act/behave righteously, and he will give us peace, which will be like a kiss that he gives us.

仁愛和忠信必彼此相親。

11 Here on earth, we will (be loyal to/continually believe in) God, and from heaven, God will act justly/fairly [toward us].

忠信從地下生出，正義由天上遠矚。

12 Yes, Yahweh will do good things [for us], and there will be great harvests in our land.

上主必賜下安康幸福；我們的土地必有豐收穫。

13 [Yahweh always acts] righteously [PRS, MET]; he acts righteously wherever he goes.

正義在上主前面行走，救恩必隨同上主的腳步。
