Chapter 69

¹For the choir director; according to Shoshannim. [A Psalm] of David. Save me, O God, For the waters have threatened my life.

¹（大衛的詩，交與伶長。調用百合花。）神啊，求你救我！因為眾水要淹沒我。

²I have sunk in deep mire, and there is no foothold; I have come into deep waters, and a flood overflows me.

²我陷在深淤泥中，沒有立腳之地；我到了深水中，大水漫過我身。

³I am weary with my crying; my throat is parched; My eyes fail while I wait for my God.

³我因呼求困乏，喉嚨發乾；我因等候神，眼睛失明。

⁴Those who hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head; Those who would destroy me are powerful, being wrongfully my enemies; What I did not steal, I then have to restore.

⁴無故恨我的，比我頭髮還多；無理與我為仇、要把我剪除的，甚為強盛。我沒有搶奪的，要叫我償還。

⁵O God, it is You who knows my folly, And my wrongs are not hidden from You.

⁵神啊，我的愚昧，你原知道；我的罪愆不能隱瞞。

⁶May those who wait for You not be ashamed through me, O Lord GOD of hosts; May those who seek You not be dishonored through me, O God of Israel,

⁶萬軍的主─耶和華啊，求你叫那等候你的，不要因我蒙羞！以色列的神啊，求你叫那尋求你的，不要因我受辱！

⁷Because for Your sake I have borne reproach; Dishonor has covered my face.

⁷因我為你的緣故受了辱罵，滿面羞愧。

⁸I have become estranged from my brothers And an alien to my mother's sons.

⁸我的弟兄看我為外路人；我的同胞看我為外邦人。

⁹For zeal for Your house has consumed me, And the reproaches of those who reproach You have fallen on me.

⁹因我為你的殿心裡焦急，如同火燒，並且辱罵你人的辱罵都落在我身上。

¹⁰When I wept in my soul with fasting, It became my reproach.

¹⁰我哭泣，以禁食刻苦我心；這倒算為我的羞辱。

¹¹When I made sackcloth my clothing, I became a byword to them.

¹¹我拿麻布當衣裳，就成了他們的笑談。

¹²Those who sit in the gate talk about me, And I [am] the song of the drunkards.

¹²坐在城門口的談論我；酒徒也以我為歌曲。

¹³But as for me, my prayer is to You, O LORD, at an acceptable time; O God, in the greatness of Your lovingkindness, Answer me with Your saving truth.

¹³但我在悅納的時候向你─耶和華祈禱。神啊，求你按你豐盛的慈愛，憑你拯救的誠實應允我！

¹⁴Deliver me from the mire and do not let me sink; May I be delivered from my foes and from the deep waters.

¹⁴求你搭救我出離淤泥，不叫我陷在其中；求你使我脫離那些恨我的人，使我出離深水。

¹⁵May the flood of water not overflow me Nor the deep swallow me up, Nor the pit shut its mouth on me.

¹⁵求你不容大水漫過我，不容深淵吞滅我，不容坑坎在我以上合口。

¹⁶Answer me, O LORD, for Your lovingkindness is good; According to the greatness of Your compassion, turn to me,

¹⁶耶和華啊，求你應允我！因為你的慈愛本為美好；求你按你豐盛的慈悲回轉眷顧我！

¹⁷And do not hide Your face from Your servant, For I am in distress; answer me quickly.

¹⁷不要掩面不顧你的僕人；我是在急難之中，求你速速地應允我！

¹⁸Oh draw near to my soul [and] redeem it; Ransom me because of my enemies!

¹⁸求你親近我，救贖我！求你因我的仇敵把我贖回！

¹⁹You know my reproach and my shame and my dishonor; All my adversaries are before You.

¹⁹你知道我受的辱罵、欺凌、羞辱；我的敵人都在你面前。

²⁰Reproach has broken my heart and I am so sick. And I looked for sympathy, but there was none, And for comforters, but I found none.

²⁰辱罵傷破了我的心，我又滿了憂愁。我指望有人體恤，卻沒有一個；我指望有人安慰，卻找不著一個。

²¹They also gave me gall for my food And for my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.

²¹他們拿苦膽給我當食物；我渴了，他們拿醋給我喝。

²²May their table before them become a snare; And when they are in peace, [may it become] a trap.

²²願他們的筵席在他們面前變為網羅，在他們平安的時候變為機檻。

²³May their eyes grow dim so that they cannot see, And make their loins shake continually.

²³願他們的眼睛昏矇，不得看見；願你使他們的腰常常戰抖。

²⁴Pour out Your indignation on them, And may Your burning anger overtake them.

²⁴求你將你的惱恨倒在他們身上，叫你的烈怒追上他們。

²⁵May their camp be desolate; May none dwell in their tents.

²⁵願他們的住處變為荒場；願他們的帳棚無人居住。

²⁶For they have persecuted him whom You Yourself have smitten, And they tell of the pain of those whom You have wounded.

²⁶因為，你所擊打的，他們就逼迫；你所擊傷的，他們戲說他的愁苦。

²⁷Add iniquity to their iniquity, And may they not come into Your righteousness.

²⁷願你在他們的罪上加罪，不容他們在你面前稱義。

²⁸May they be blotted out of the book of life And may they not be recorded with the righteous.

²⁸願他們從生命冊上被塗抹，不得記錄在義人之中。

²⁹But I am afflicted and in pain; May Your salvation, O God, set me [securely] on high.

²⁹但我是困苦憂傷的；神啊，願你的救恩將我安置在高處。

³⁰I will praise the name of God with song And magnify Him with thanksgiving.

³⁰我要以詩歌讚美神的名，以感謝稱他為大！

³¹And it will please the LORD better than an ox [Or] a young bull with horns and hoofs.

³¹這便叫耶和華喜悅，勝似獻牛，或是獻有角有蹄的公牛。

³²The humble have seen [it and] are glad; You who seek God, let your heart revive.

³²謙卑的人看見了就喜樂；尋求神的人，願你們的心甦醒。

³³For the LORD hears the needy And does not despise His [who are] prisoners.

³³因為耶和華聽了窮乏人，不藐視被囚的人。

³⁴Let heaven and earth praise Him, The seas and everything that moves in them.

³⁴願天和地、洋海和其中一切的動物都讚美他！

³⁵For God will save Zion and build the cities of Judah, That they may dwell there and possess it.

³⁵因為神要拯救錫安，建造猶大的城邑；他的民要在那裡居住，得以為業。

³⁶The descendants of His servants will inherit it, And those who love His name will dwell in it.

³⁶他僕人的後裔要承受為業；愛他名的人也要住在其中。
