< 詩篇 60 >
1 神よなんぢわれらを棄われらをちらし給へり なんぢは憤ほりたまへり ねがはくは再びわれらを歸したまへ
To the Chief Musician. Upon "The Lily of Testimony." A precious Psalm of David, to instruct. When he waged war with Aram-neharaim, and with Aram-zobah, —and then Joab returned and smote of Edom in the Valley of Salt, twelve thousand. O God, thou hast rejected us—hast scattered us, Thou hast been angry, Wilt thou restore us?
2 なんぢ國をふるはせてこれを裂たまへり ねがはくはその多くの隙をおぎなひたまへ そは國ゆりうごくなり
Thou hast shaken the land—hast rent it, Heal thou the fractures thereof—for it hath tottered:
3 なんぢはその民にたへがたきことをしめし 人をよろめかする酒をわれらに飮しめ給へり
Thou hast suffered thy people to see hardship, Thou hast let them drink the wine of confusion.
4 なんぢ眞理のために擧しめんとて汝をおそるるものに一つの旗をあたへたまへり (セラ)
Thou hadst given—to them that revere thee—a banner, to float aloft, Because of [thy] faithfulness. (Selah)
5 ねがはくは右の手をもて救をほどこし われらに答をなして愛しみたまふものに助をえしめたまへ
That thy beloved ones may be delivered, Save thou with thine own right hand—and answer us.
6 神はその聖をもていひたまへり われ甚くよろこばん われシケムをわかちスコテの谷をはからん
God, hath spoken in his holiness—I will exult! I will apportion Shechem, And, the Vale of Succoth, will I measure out;
7 ギレアデはわがもの マナセはわが有なり エフライムも亦わが首のまもりなり ユダはわが杖
Mine, is Gilead—and mine, Manasseh, But, Ephraim, is the defence, of my head, Judah, is my commander’s staff;
8 モアブはわが足盥なり エドムにはわが履をなげん ベリシテよわが故によりて聲をあげよと
Moab, is my wash-bowl, Upon Edom, will I throw my shoe, Over Philistia! raise shout of triumph.
9 たれかわれを堅固なる邑にすすましめんや 誰かわれをみちびきてエドムにゆきたるか
Who will conduct me to a fortified city? Who will lead me as far as Edom!
10 神よなんぢはわれらを棄たまひしにあらずや 神よなんぢはわれらの軍とともにいでゆきたまはず
Is it not, thou, O God?—thou hast rejected us! And wilt thou not go forth, O God, with our hosts?
11 ねがはくは助をわれにあたへて敵にむかはしめたまへ 人のたすけは空しければなり
Grant us help out of distress, For, vain, is the deliverance of man:
12 われらは神によりて勇しくはたらかん われらの敵をみたまふものは神なればなり
In God, we shall do valiantly, He himself, therefore, will tread down our adversaries.
