詩篇 31
1 ヱホバよわれ汝によりたのむ 願くはいづれの日までも愧をおはしめたまふなかれ なんぢの義をもてわれを助けたまへ
To the Chief Musician. A Melody of David. In thee, O Yahweh, have I sought refuge, Let me not be ashamed to times age-abiding, In thy righteousness, deliver me:
2 なんぢの耳をかたぶけて速かにわれをすくひたまへ 願くはわがためにかたき磐となり我をすくふ保障の家となりたまへ
Incline unto me, thine ear, Speedily rescue me, —Become to me a Rock of refuge, a Place of security, For saving me.
3 なんぢはわが磐わが城なり されば名のゆゑをもてわれを引われを導きたまへ
Because, my mountain crag and my stronghold, thou art, Therefore, for the sake of thine own Name, wilt thou lead me and guide me?
4 なんぢ我をかれらが密かにまうけたる網よりひきいだしたまへ なんぢはわが保砦なり
Wilt thou bring me forth, out of the net which they have hidden for me? For, thou, art my refuge.
5 われ霊魂をなんぢの手にゆだぬ ヱホバまことの神よなんぢはわれを贖ひたまへり
Into thy hand, do I commit my spirit—Thou hast ransomed me, O Yahweh, GOD most faithful.
6 われはいつはりの虚きことに心をよする者をにくむ われは獨ヱホバによりたのむなり
I hate such as give heed to false vanities, I, then, in Yahweh, have set my hope.
7 我はなんぢの憐憫をよろこびたのしまん なんぢわが艱難をかへりみ わがたましひの禍害をしり
I will indeed exult and rejoice, in thy lovingkindness, —In that thou hast looked upon my humiliation, thou hast taken note that in distresses was my life;
8 われを仇の手にとぢこめしめたまはず わが足をひろきところに立たまへばなり
And hast not shut me up in the hand of the foe, Thou hast given standing, in a roomy place, unto my feet.
9 われ迫りくるしめり ヱホバよ我をあはれみたまへ わが目はうれひによりておとろふ 霊魂も身もまた衰へぬ
Show me favour, O Yahweh, for in distress am I, —Wasted with vexation, is mine eye—my soul and my body;
10 わが生命はかなしみによりて消えゆき わが年華はなげきによりて消ゆけばなり わが力はわが不義によりておとろへ わが骨はかれはてたり
For, consumed with sorrow, is my life, and my years with sighing, —My strength hath staggered with my humiliation, and, my bones, are without marrow.
11 われもろもろの仇ゆゑにそしらる わが隣にはわけて甚だし相識ものには忌憚られ衢にてわれを見るもの避てのがる
By reason of all mine adversaries, have I become a reproach. Even to my neighbours, altogether, and a dread to mine acquaintance, —They who have seen me abroad, have fled from me:
12 われは死たるもののごとく忘られて人のこころに置れず われはやぶれたる器もののごとくなれり
I have been forgotten, like one dead—out of mind, I have been as a missing vessel.
13 そは我おほくの人のそしりをきい到るところに懼あり かれら我にさからひて互にはかりしが わが生命をさへとらんと企てたり
For I have heard the whispering of many—A terror round about! When they have sat in conclave together against me, to take away my life, have they intrigued.
14 されどヱホバよわれ汝によりたのめり また汝はわが神なりといへり
I, therefore. in thee, have put my trust, O Yahweh, I have said, My God, thou art!
15 わが時はすべてなんぢの手にあり ねがはくはわれを仇の手よりたすけ われに追迫るものより助けいだしたまへ
In thy hand, are my times, Rescue me from the hand of my foes and from my pursuers!
16 なんぢの僕のうへに聖顔をかがやかせ なんぢの仁慈をもて我をすくひたまへ
Cause thy face to shine upon thy servant, Save me in thy lovingkindness.
O Yahweh! let me not be ashamed, For I have called upon thee, Let the lawless be ashamed, Go down in silence to hades! (Sheol h7585)
18 傲慢と軽侮とをもて義きものにむかひ妄りにののしるいつはりの口唇をつぐましめたまへ
Let false lips be made dumb, —which are speaking—against a righteous one—arrogantly, with pride and contempt.
19 汝をおそるる者のためにたくはへ なんぢに依賴むもののために人の子のまへにてほどこしたまへる汝のいつくしみは大なるかな
How great is thy goodness, which thou hast hidden away for them who revere thee, —Thou hast wrought for them who seek refuge in thee, in sight of the sons of men.
20 汝かれらを御前なるひそかなる所にかくして人の謀略よりまぬかれしめ また行宮のうちにひそませて舌のあらそひをさけしめたまはん
Thou wilt conceal them, in the secrecy of thine own presence, from the conspiracies of men, —Thou wilt hide them in a pavilion, from the strife of tongues.
21 讃べきかなヱホバは堅固なる城のなかにて奇しまるるばかりの仁慈をわれに顯したまへり
Blessed be Yahweh, for he hath made wonderful his lovingkindness for me, in a fortified city.
22 われ驚きあわてていへらく なんぢの目のまへより絶れたりと 然どわれ汝によびもとめしとき汝わがねがひの聲をききたまへり
But, I, had said in mine alarm, I am cut off from before thine eyes, —But, indeed, thou didst hear the voice of my supplication, when I cried for help unto thee.
23 なんぢらもろもろの聖徒よヱホバをいつくしめ ヱホバは眞實あるものをまもり傲慢者におもく報をほどこしたまふ
Love Yahweh, all ye his men of lovingkindness, —Faithfulness, doth Yahweh observe, but repayeth abundantly him that worketh proudly.
24 すべてヱホバを俟望むものよ雄々しかれ なんぢら心をかたうせよ
Be strong, and let your heart be bold, all ye who are waiting for Yahweh.
