Chapter 139

¹For the choir director. A Psalm of David. O LORD, You have searched me and known [me].

¹（大衛的詩，交與伶長。）耶和華啊，你已經鑒察我，認識我。

²You know when I sit down and when I rise up; You understand my thought from afar.

²我坐下，我起來，你都曉得；你從遠處知道我的意念。

³You scrutinize my path and my lying down, And are intimately acquainted with all my ways.

³我行路，我躺臥，你都細察；你也深知我一切所行的。

⁴Even before there is a word on my tongue, Behold, O LORD, You know it all.

⁴耶和華啊，我舌頭上的話，你沒有一句不知道的。

⁵You have enclosed me behind and before, And laid Your hand upon me.

⁵你在我前後環繞我，按手在我身上。

⁶[Such] knowledge is too wonderful for me; It is [too] high, I cannot attain to it.

⁶這樣的知識奇妙，是我不能測的，至高，是我不能及的。

⁷Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence?

⁷我往哪裡去躲避你的靈？我往哪裡逃、躲避你的面？

⁸If I ascend to heaven, You are there; If I make my bed in Sheol, behold, You are there.

⁸我若升到天上，你在那裡；我若在陰間下榻，你也在那裡。

⁹If I take the wings of the dawn, If I dwell in the remotest part of the sea,

⁹我若展開清晨的翅膀，飛到海極居住，

¹⁰Even there Your hand will lead me, And Your right hand will lay hold of me.

¹⁰就是在那裡，你的手必引導我；你的右手也必扶持我。

¹¹If I say, 'Surely the darkness will overwhelm me, And the light around me will be night,'

¹¹我若說：黑暗必定遮蔽我，我周圍的亮光必成為黑夜；

¹²Even the darkness is not dark to You, And the night is as bright as the day. Darkness and light are alike [to You].

¹²黑暗也不能遮蔽我，使你不見，黑夜卻如白晝發亮。黑暗和光明，在你看都是一樣。

¹³For You formed my inward parts; You wove me in my mother's womb.

¹³我的肺腑是你所造的；我在母腹中，你已覆庇我。

¹⁴I will give thanks to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Wonderful are Your works, And my soul knows it very well.

¹⁴我要稱謝你，因我受造，奇妙可畏；你的作為奇妙，這是我心深知道的。

¹⁵My frame was not hidden from You, When I was made in secret, [And] skillfully wrought in the depths of the earth;

¹⁵我在暗中受造，在地的深處被聯絡；那時，我的形體並不向你隱藏。

¹⁶Your eyes have seen my unformed substance; And in Your book were all written The days that were ordained [for me], When as yet there was not one of them.

¹⁶我未成形的體質，你的眼早已看見了；你所定的日子，我尚未度一日（或譯：我被造的肢體尚未有其一），你都寫在你的冊上了。

¹⁷How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God! How vast is the sum of them!

¹⁷神啊，你的意念向我何等寶貴！其數何等眾多！

¹⁸If I should count them, they would outnumber the sand. When I awake, I am still with You.

¹⁸我若數點，比海沙更多；我睡醒的時候，仍和你同在。

¹⁹O that You would slay the wicked, O God; Depart from me, therefore, men of bloodshed.

¹⁹神啊，你必要殺戮惡人；所以，你們好流人血的，離開我去罷！

²⁰For they speak against You wickedly, And Your enemies take [Your name] in vain.

²⁰因為他們說惡言頂撞你；你的仇敵也妄稱你的名。

²¹Do I not hate those who hate You, O LORD? And do I not loathe those who rise up against You?

²¹耶和華啊，恨惡你的，我豈不恨惡他們麼？攻擊你的，我豈不憎嫌他們麼？

²²I hate them with the utmost hatred; They have become my enemies.

²²我切切地恨惡他們，以他們為仇敵。

²³Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me and know my anxious thoughts;

²³神啊，求你鑒察我，知道我的心思，試煉我，知道我的意念，

²⁴And see if there be any hurtful way in me, And lead me in the everlasting way.

²⁴看在我裡面有甚麼惡行沒有，引導我走永生的道路。
