Capítulo 144

¹[A Psalm] of David. Blessed be the LORD, my rock, Who trains my hands for war, [And] my fingers for battle;

¹（大衛的詩。）耶和華─我的磐石是應當稱頌的！他教導我的手爭戰，教導我的指頭打仗。

²My lovingkindness and my fortress, My stronghold and my deliverer, My shield and He in whom I take refuge, Who subdues my people under me.

²他是我慈愛的主，我的山寨，我的高臺，我的救主，我的盾牌，是我所投靠的；他使我的百姓服在我以下。

³O LORD, what is man, that You take knowledge of him? Or the son of man, that You think of him?

³耶和華啊，人算甚麼，你竟認識他！世人算甚麼，你竟顧念他！

⁴Man is like a mere breath; His days are like a passing shadow.

⁴人好像一口氣；他的年日如同影兒快快過去。

⁵Bow Your heavens, O LORD, and come down; Touch the mountains, that they may smoke.

⁵耶和華啊，求你使天下垂，親自降臨，摸山，山就冒煙。

⁶Flash forth lightning and scatter them; Send out Your arrows and confuse them.

⁶求你發出閃電，使他們四散，射出你的箭，使他們擾亂。

⁷Stretch forth Your hand from on high; Rescue me and deliver me out of great waters, Out of the hand of aliens

⁷求你從上伸手救拔我，救我出離大水，救我脫離外邦人的手。

⁸Whose mouths speak deceit, And whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood.

⁸他們的口說謊話；他們的右手起假誓。

⁹I will sing a new song to You, O God; Upon a harp of ten strings I will sing praises to You,

⁹神啊，我要向你唱新歌，用十弦瑟向你歌頌。

¹⁰Who gives salvation to kings, Who rescues David His servant from the evil sword.

¹⁰你是那拯救君王的；你是那救僕人大衛脫離害命之刀的。

¹¹Rescue me and deliver me out of the hand of aliens, Whose mouth speaks deceit And whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood.

¹¹求你救拔我，救我脫離外邦人的手。他們的口說謊話；他們的右手起假誓。

¹²Let our sons in their youth be as grown-up plants, And our daughters as corner pillars fashioned as for a palace;

¹²我們的兒子從幼年好像樹栽子長大；我們的女兒如同殿角石，是按建宮的樣式鑿成的。

¹³Let our garners be full, furnishing every kind of produce, [And] our flocks bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our fields;

¹³我們的倉盈滿，能出各樣的糧食；我們的羊在田間孳生千萬。

¹⁴Let our cattle bear Without mishap and without loss, [Let there be] no outcry in our streets!

¹⁴我們的牛馱著滿馱，沒有人闖進來搶奪，也沒有人出去爭戰；我們的街市上也沒有哭號的聲音。

¹⁵How blessed are the people who are so situated; How blessed are the people whose God is the LORD!

¹⁵遇見這光景的百姓便為有福！有耶和華為他們的神，這百姓便為有福！
