詩篇 52

1 エドム人ドエグ、サウルにきたりてダビデはアビメレクの家にきぬと告しときダビデがよみて伶長にうたはしめたる教訓のうた 猛者よなんぢ何なればあしき企圖をもて自らほこるや神のあはれみは恒にたえざるなり

“For the leader of the music. A psalm of David, when Doeg, the Edomite, came and told Saul, and said to him, David is come to the house of Abimelech.” Why gloriest thou in mischief, thou man of violence? The goodness of God yet continueth daily.

2 なんぢの舌はあしきことをはかり利き剃刀のごとくいつはりをおこなふ

Thy tongue deviseth mischief, Like a sharp razor, thou contriver of deceit!

3 なんぢは善よりも惡をこのみ正義をいふよりも虚偽をいふをこのむ (セラ)

Thou lovest evil more than good, And to lie more than to speak truth. (Pause)

4 たばかりの舌よなんぢはすべての物をくひほろぼす言をこのむ

Thou lovest all devouring words, O thou deceitful tongue!

5 されば神とこしへまでも汝をくだき また汝をとらへてその幕屋よりぬきいだし生るものの地よりなんぢの根をたやしたまはん (セラ)

Thee also shall God utterly destroy! o He shall seize thee, and tear thee from thy dwelling-place, And uproot thee from the land of the living. (Pause)

6 義者はこれを見ておそれ彼をわらひていはん

The righteous shall see and fear, And shall laugh at him.

7 神をおのが力となさず その富のゆたかなるをたのみ その惡をもて己をかたくせんとする人をみよと

“Behold the man that made not God his strength, But trusted in the abundance of his riches, And placed his strength in his wickedness!”

8 然はあれどわれは神の家にあるあをき橄欖の樹のごとし 我はいやとほながに神のあはれみに依頼まん

But I shall be like a green olive-tree in the house of God; I will trust in the goodness of God for ever and ever.

9 なんぢこの事をおこなひ給ひしによりて我とこしへになんぢに感謝し なんぢの聖徒のまへにて聖名をまちのぞまん こは宜しきことなれぱなり

I will praise thee for ever for what thou hast done; I will trust in thy name, because it is good, Before the eyes of thy godly ones!
