< Psalms 5 >
1 For the chief musician; with wind instruments. A psalm of David. Listen to my call to you, Yahweh; think about my groanings.
大卫的诗,交与伶长。用吹的乐器。 耶和华啊,求你留心听我的言语, 顾念我的心思!
2 Listen to the sound of my call, my King and my God, for it is to you that I pray.
我的王我的 神啊,求你垂听我呼求的声音! 因为我向你祈祷。
3 Yahweh, in the morning you hear my cry; in the morning I will bring my petition to you and wait expectantly.
耶和华啊,早晨你必听我的声音; 早晨我必向你陈明我的心意,并要警醒!
4 Certainly you are not a God who approves of evil; evil people will not be your guests.
因为你不是喜悦恶事的 神, 恶人不能与你同居。
5 The arrogant will not stand in your presence; you hate all who behave wickedly.
狂傲人不能站在你眼前; 凡作孽的,都是你所恨恶的。
6 You will destroy liars; Yahweh despises violent and deceitful men.
说谎言的,你必灭绝; 好流人血弄诡诈的,都为耶和华所憎恶。
7 But as for me, because of your great covenant faithfulness, I will come into your house; in reverence I will bow down toward your holy temple.
至于我,我必凭你丰盛的慈爱进入你的居所; 我必存敬畏你的心向你的圣殿下拜。
8 Oh Lord, lead me in your righteousness because of my enemies; make your path straight before me.
耶和华啊,求你因我的仇敌,凭你的公义引领我, 使你的道路在我面前正直。
9 For there is no truth in their mouth; their inward being is wicked; their throat is an open tomb; they flatter with their tongue.
因为,他们的口中没有诚实; 他们的心里满有邪恶; 他们的喉咙是敞开的坟墓; 他们用舌头谄媚人。
10 Declare them guilty, God; may their schemes be their downfall! Drive them out for their many transgressions, for they have rebelled against you.
神啊,求你定他们的罪! 愿他们因自己的计谋跌倒; 愿你在他们许多的过犯中把他们逐出, 因为他们背叛了你。
11 But may all those who take refuge in you rejoice; let them always shout for joy because you defend them; let them be joyful in you, those who love your name.
凡投靠你的,愿他们喜乐,时常欢呼, 因为你护庇他们; 又愿那爱你名的人都靠你欢欣。
12 For you will bless the righteous, Yahweh; you will surround them with favor as with a shield.
因为你必赐福与义人; 耶和华啊,你必用恩惠如同盾牌四面护卫他。
