Psalms 63

1 A psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah. God, you are my God! I earnestly search for you, my soul thirsts for you, and my flesh longs for you, in a dry and weary land where there is no water.

ユダの野にありしときに詠るダビデのうた ああ神よなんぢはわが神なり われ切になんぢをたづねもとむ 水なき燥きおとろへたる地にあるごとくわが霊魂はかわきて汝をのぞみ わが肉體はなんぢを戀したふ

2 So I have looked on you in the sanctuary, to see your power and your glory.

曩にも我かくのごとく大權と榮光とをみんことをねがひ聖所にありて目をなんぢより離れしめざりき

3 Because your covenant faithfulness is better than life, my lips will praise you.

なんぢの仁慈はいのちにも勝れるゆゑにわが口唇はなんぢを讃まつらん

4 So I will bless you while I live; I will lift up my hands in your name.

斯われはわが生るあひだ汝をいはひ名によりてわが手をあげん

5 It will be as if I ate a meal of marrow and fatness; with joyful lips my mouth will praise you,

6 when I think about you on my bed and meditate on you in the night hours.

われ床にありて汝をおもひいで夜の更るままになんぢを深くおもはん時 わがたましひは髄と脂とにて饗さるるごとく飽ことをえ わが口はよろこびの口唇をもてなんぢを讃たたへん

7 For you have been my help, and in the shadow of your wings I rejoice.

そはなんぢわが助となりたまひたれば 我なんぢの翼のかげに入てよろこびたのしまん

8 I cling to you; your right hand supports me.

わがたましひはなんぢを慕追ふ みぎの手はわれを支ふるなり

9 But those who seek to destroy my life will go down into the lowest parts of the earth;

然どわがたましひを滅さんとて尋ねもとむるものは地のふかきところにゆき

10 they will be given over to those whose hands use the sword, and they will become food for the jackals.

又つるぎの刃にわたされ野犬の獲るところとなるべし

11 But the king will rejoice in God; everyone who swears by him will be proud of him, but the mouth of those who speak lies will be stopped up.

しかれども王は神をよろこばん 神によりて誓をたつるものはみな誇ることをえん 虚偽をいふものの口はふさがるべければなり
