< 詩篇 142 >
1 われ聲をいだしてヱホバによばはり 聲をいだしてヱホバにこひもとむ
[A Psalm] of instruction for David, when he was in the cave, —a Prayer. I cried to the Lord with my voice; with my voice I made supplication to the Lord.
2 われはその聖前にわが歎息をそそぎいだし そのみまへにわが患難をあらはす
I will pour out before him my supplication: I will declare before him mine affliction.
3 わが霊魂わがうちにきえうせんとするときも汝わがみちを識たまへり 人われをとらへんとてわがゆくみちに羂をかくせり
When my spirit was fainting within me, then you knew my paths; in the very way wherein I was walking, they hid a snare for me.
4 願くはわがみぎの手に目をそそぎて見たまへ 一人だに我をしるものなし われには避所なくまたわが霊魂をかへりみる人なし
I looked on [my] right hand, and behold, for there was none that noticed me; refuge failed me; and there was none that cared for my soul.
5 ヱホバよわれ汝をよばふ 我いへらく汝はわがさけどころ有生の地にてわがうべき分なりと
I cried to you, O Lord, and said, You are my hope, my portion in the land of the living.
6 ねがはくはわが號呼にみこころをとめたまへ われいたく卑くせられたればなり 我をせむる者より助けいだしたまへ 彼等はわれにまさりて強ければなり
Attend to my supplication, for I am brought very low; deliver me from them that persecute me; for they are stronger than I.
7 願くはわがたましひを囹圄よりいだし われに聖名を感謝せしめたまへ なんぢ豊かにわれを待ひたまふべければ 義者われをめぐらん
Bring my soul out of prison, that I may give thanks to your name, O Lord; the righteous shall wait for me, until you recompense me.
