< 詩篇 36 >

1 聖歌隊の指揮者によってうたわせた主のしもべダビデの歌 とがは悪しき者にむかい、その心のうちに言う。その目の前に神を恐れる恐れはない。
[Wicked people continually desire to] sin. They consider [IDM] that they do not need to revere God.
2 彼は自分の不義があらわされないため、また憎まれないために、みずからその目でおもねる。
Because they are very proud, they do not think that God will discover their sins and condemn them (OR, they do not think about their sins and hate themselves for it).
3 その口の言葉はよこしまと欺きである。彼は知恵を得ることと、善を行う事とをやめた。
[Everything] that they say is deceitful and full of lies; they no longer do what is good and are no longer wise.
4 彼はその床の上でよこしまな事をたくらみ、よからぬ道に身をおいて、悪をきらわない。
While they are lying on their beds, they plan to do things to harm [others]; they are determined to do things that are not good, and they never refuse [to do what is] evil.
5 主よ、あなたのいつくしみは天にまで及び、あなたのまことは雲にまで及ぶ。
Yahweh, your faithful love for us reaches as high as the heavens, you faithfully [do what you have promised]; [it is as though your doing that] extends up to the clouds.
6 あなたの義は神の山のごとく、あなたのさばきは大きな淵のようだ。主よ、あなたは人と獣とを救われる。
Your righteous behavior is [as permanent as] the highest mountains [MET], your acting justly [will continue as long as] the deepest oceans [exist]. You take care of people and you take care of animals.
7 神よ、あなたのいつくしみはいかに尊いことでしょう。人の子らはあなたの翼のかげに避け所を得、
God, your faithful love for us is very precious. You protect us like birds protect their baby birds under their wings [MET].
8 あなたの家の豊かなのによって飽き足りる。あなたはその楽しみの川の水を彼らに飲ませられる。
You provide for us plenty of food from the abundant supply [IDM] that you have; your great blessings for us [flow] like a river.
9 いのちの泉はあなたのもとにあり、われらはあなたの光によって光を見る。
You are the one who causes everything to live; your light is what enables us to see.
10 どうか、あなたを知る者に絶えずいつくしみを施し、心の直き者に絶えず救を施してください。
Continue to faithfully love those who have experienced a relationship with you, and bless those who act righteously/justly.
11 高ぶる者の足がわたしを踏み、悪しき者の手がわたしを追い出すことをゆるさないでください。
Do not allow proud people [SYN] to attack me, or allow wicked people to chase me away.
12 悪を行う者はそこに倒れ、彼らは打ち伏せられて、起きあがることはできない。
Look where evil people have fallen on the ground, defeated; they were thrown down, and they will never rise again.
