第九四章

¹O LORD, God of vengeance, God of vengeance, shine forth!

¹耶和華啊，你是伸冤的神；伸冤的神啊，求你發出光來！

²Rise up, O Judge of the earth, Render recompense to the proud.

²審判世界的主啊，求你挺身而立，使驕傲人受應得的報應！

³How long shall the wicked, O LORD, How long shall the wicked exult?

³耶和華啊，惡人誇勝要到幾時呢？要到幾時呢？

⁴They pour forth [words], they speak arrogantly; All who do wickedness vaunt themselves.

⁴他們絮絮叨叨說傲慢的話；一切作孽的人都自己誇張。

⁵They crush Your people, O LORD, And afflict Your heritage.

⁵耶和華啊，他們強壓你的百姓，苦害你的產業。

⁶They slay the widow and the stranger And murder the orphans.

⁶他們殺死寡婦和寄居的，又殺害孤兒。

⁷They have said, 'The LORD does not see, Nor does the God of Jacob pay heed.'

⁷他們說：耶和華必不看見；雅各的神必不思念。

⁸Pay heed, you senseless among the people; And when will you understand, stupid ones?

⁸你們民間的畜類人當思想；你們愚頑人到幾時才有智慧呢？

⁹He who planted the ear, does He not hear? He who formed the eye, does He not see?

⁹造耳朵的，難道自己不聽見麼？造眼睛的，難道自己不看見麼？

¹⁰He who chastens the nations, will He not rebuke, [Even] He who teaches man knowledge?

¹⁰管教列邦的，就是叫人得知識的，難道自己不懲治人麼？

¹¹The LORD knows the thoughts of man, That they are a [mere] breath.

¹¹耶和華知道人的意念是虛妄的。

¹²Blessed is the man whom You chasten, O LORD, And whom You teach out of Your law;

¹²耶和華啊，你所管教、用律法所教訓的人是有福的！

¹³That You may grant him relief from the days of adversity, Until a pit is dug for the wicked.

¹³你使他在遭難的日子得享平安；惟有惡人陷在所挖的坑中。

¹⁴For the LORD will not abandon His people, Nor will He forsake His inheritance.

¹⁴因為耶和華必不丟棄他的百姓，也不離棄他的產業。

¹⁵For judgment will again be righteous, And all the upright in heart will follow it.

¹⁵審判要轉向公義；心裡正直的，必都隨從。

¹⁶Who will stand up for me against evildoers? Who will take his stand for me against those who do wickedness?

¹⁶誰肯為我起來攻擊作惡的？誰肯為我站起抵擋作孽的？

¹⁷If the LORD had not been my help, My soul would soon have dwelt in [the abode of] silence.

¹⁷若不是耶和華幫助我，我就住在寂靜之中了。

¹⁸If I should say, 'My foot has slipped,' Your lovingkindness, O LORD, will hold me up.

¹⁸我正說我失了腳，耶和華啊，那時你的慈愛扶助我。

¹⁹When my anxious thoughts multiply within me, Your consolations delight my soul.

¹⁹我心裡多憂多疑，你安慰我，就使我歡樂。

²⁰Can a throne of destruction be allied with You, One which devises mischief by decree?

²⁰那藉著律例架弄殘害、在位上行奸惡的，豈能與你相交麼？

²¹They band themselves together against the life of the righteous And condemn the innocent to death.

²¹他們大家聚集攻擊義人，將無辜的人定為死罪。

²²But the LORD has been my stronghold, And my God the rock of my refuge.

²²但耶和華向來作了我的高臺；我的神作了我投靠的磐石。

²³He has brought back their wickedness upon them And will destroy them in their evil; The LORD our God will destroy them.

²³他叫他們的罪孽歸到他們身上。他們正在行惡之中，他要剪除他們；耶和華─我們的神要把他們剪除。
