< 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
I CRIED unto the Lord with my voice; with my voice unto the Lord did I make my supplication.
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 poured out my complaint before him; I shewed before him my trouble.
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 overwhelmed within me, then thou knewest my path. In the way wherein I walked have they privily laid 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 beheld, but there was no man that would know me: refuge failed me; no man 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 unto thee, O Lord: I said, Thou art my refuge and 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 unto my cry; for I am brought very low: deliver me from my persecutors; 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 praise thy name: the righteous shall compass me about; for thou shalt deal bountifully with me.
