< Psalms 27 >
1 By David. Jehovah [is] my light and my salvation, Whom do I fear? Jehovah [is] the strength of my life, Of whom am I afraid?
大卫的诗。 耶和华是我的亮光,是我的拯救, 我还怕谁呢? 耶和华是我性命的保障, 我还惧谁呢?
2 When evil doers come near to me to eat my flesh, My adversaries and mine enemies to me, They have stumbled and fallen.
那作恶的就是我的仇敌, 前来吃我肉的时候就绊跌仆倒。
3 Though a host doth encamp against me, My heart doth not fear, Though war riseth up against me, In this I [am] confident.
虽有军兵安营攻击我,我的心也不害怕; 虽然兴起刀兵攻击我,我必仍旧安稳。
4 One [thing] I asked of Jehovah — it I seek. My dwelling in the house of Jehovah, All the days of my life, To look on the pleasantness of Jehovah, And to inquire in His temple.
有一件事,我曾求耶和华,我仍要寻求: 就是一生一世住在耶和华的殿中, 瞻仰他的荣美,在他的殿里求问。
5 For He hideth me in a tabernacle in the day of evil, He hideth me in a secret place of His tent, On a rock he raiseth me up.
因为我遭遇患难,他必暗暗地保守我; 在他亭子里,把我藏在他帐幕的隐密处, 将我高举在磐石上。
6 And now, lifted up is my head, Above my enemies — my surrounders, And I sacrifice in His tent sacrifices of shouting, I sing, yea, I sing praise to Jehovah.
现在我得以昂首,高过四面的仇敌。 我要在他的帐幕里欢然献祭; 我要唱诗歌颂耶和华。
7 Hear, O Jehovah, my voice — I call, And favour me, and answer me.
耶和华啊,我用声音呼吁的时候,求你垂听; 并求你怜恤我,应允我。
8 To Thee said my heart 'They sought my face, Thy face, O Jehovah, I seek.'
你说:你们当寻求我的面。 那时我心向你说:耶和华啊, 你的面我正要寻求。
9 Hide not Thy face from me, Turn not aside in anger Thy servant, My help Thou hast been. Leave me not, nor forsake me, O God of my salvation.
不要向我掩面。 不要发怒赶逐仆人, 你向来是帮助我的。 救我的 神啊,不要丢掉我, 也不要离弃我。
10 When my father and my mother Have forsaken me, then doth Jehovah gather me.
我父母离弃我, 耶和华必收留我。
11 Shew me, O Jehovah, Thy way, And lead me in a path of uprightness, For the sake of my beholders.
耶和华啊,求你将你的道指教我, 因我仇敌的缘故引导我走平坦的路。
12 Give me not to the will of my adversaries, For risen against me have false witnesses, And they breathe out violence to me.
求你不要把我交给敌人,遂其所愿; 因为妄作见证的和口吐凶言的,起来攻击我。
13 I had not believed to look on the goodness of Jehovah In the land of the living!
我若不信在活人之地得见耶和华的恩惠, 就早已丧胆了。
14 Look unto Jehovah — be strong, And He doth strengthen thy heart, Yea, look unto Jehovah!
要等候耶和华! 当壮胆,坚固你的心! 我再说,要等候耶和华!
