Psalms 32

1 [A Psalm] of David, Maschil. Blessed [is he whose] transgression [is] forgiven, [whose] sin [is] covered.

罪惡蒙赦免，過犯得遮掩的人，有福的。

2 Blessed [is] the man to whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit [there is] no guile.

上主不歸咎，心中無詐欺的人是有福的。

3 When I kept silence, my bones became old through my roaring all the day long.

就在我緘默不語的時期內，我的骸因常傷歎而疲衰；

4 For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: my moisture is turned into the drouth of summer. (Selah)

因為你的手晝夜在重壓著我，我的力量像在盛暑中而消耗。（休止）

5 I acknowledged my sin to thee, and my iniquity have I not hid. I said, I will confess my transgressions to the LORD; and thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. (Selah)

我終於向你承認我的罪過，絲毫也沒有隱瞞我的邪惡，我說：「我要向上主承認我的罪孽，」你立刻便寬赦了我的罪債。（休止）

6 For this shall every one that is godly pray to thee in a time when thou mayest be found: surely in the floods of great waters they shall not come nigh to him.

為此虔敬的人在困厄時，都應向你哀禱，縱使大水氾濫成災，他也不會遭受波濤。

7 Thou [art] my hiding place; thou wilt preserve me from trouble; thou wilt compass me about with songs of deliverance. (Selah)

你是我的避難所，救我脫離災禍，你以拯救我的喜樂，常環繞著我。（休止）

8 I will instruct thee, and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with my eye.

我教導你，指示你應走的正道，雙眼注視你，親自作你的嚮導。

9 Be ye not as the horse, [or] as the mule, [which] have no understanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, lest they come near to thee.

不要像騾馬一般糊塗，需要韁轡來加以管束；不然，不向你眼前趨赴。

10 Many sorrows [shall be] to the wicked: but he that trusteth in the LORD, mercy shall encompass him.

邪惡的人必要受許多的痛苦；仰望上主的人，必有慈愛圍護，

11 Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all [ye that are] upright in heart.

正義的人們！你們應在上主內歡欣喜樂。 心正的人們！你們應在上主內歡呼踴躍。
