蒙主救拔脫離苦難

40 大衛的詩,交於伶長。

我曾耐性等候耶和華,他垂聽我的呼求。
他從禍坑裡,從淤泥中,把我拉上來,使我的腳立在磐石上,使我腳步穩當。
他使我口唱新歌,就是讚美我們神的話。許多人必看見而懼怕,並要倚靠耶和華。
那倚靠耶和華,不理會狂傲和偏向虛假之輩的,這人便為有福!
耶和華我的神啊,你所行的奇事,並你向我們所懷的意念甚多,不能向你陳明。若要陳明,其事不可勝數。
祭物和禮物你不喜悅,你已經開通我的耳朵,燔祭和贖罪祭非你所要。
那時我說:「看哪,我來了,我的事在經卷上已經記載了。
我的神啊,我樂意照你的旨意行,你的律法在我心裡。」
我在大會中宣傳公義的佳音,我必不止住我的嘴唇,耶和華啊,這是你所知道的。
10 我未曾把你的公義藏在心裡,我已陳明你的信實和你的救恩,我在大會中未曾隱瞞你的慈愛和誠實。
11 耶和華啊,求你不要向我止住你的慈悲,願你的慈愛和誠實常常保佑我。
12 因有無數的禍患圍困我,我的罪孽追上了我,使我不能昂首。這罪孽比我的頭髮還多,我就心寒膽戰。
13 耶和華啊,求你開恩搭救我!耶和華啊,求你速速幫助我!
14 願那些尋找我要滅我命的一同抱愧蒙羞,願那些喜悅我受害的退後受辱。
15 願那些對我說「啊哈!啊哈!」的,因羞愧而敗亡。
16 願一切尋求你的因你高興歡喜,願那些喜愛你救恩的常說:「當尊耶和華為大!」
17 但我是困苦窮乏的,主仍顧念我。你是幫助我的,搭救我的,神啊,求你不要耽延!

My Help and My Deliverer

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.

40 I (A)waited patiently for the Lord;
    he inclined to me and (B)heard my cry.
He drew me up from (C)the pit of destruction,
    out of (D)the miry bog,
and (E)set my feet upon a rock,
    (F)making my steps secure.
He put (G)a new song in my mouth,
    a song of praise to our God.
Many will (H)see and fear,
    and put their trust in the Lord.

Blessed is the man who (I)makes
    the Lord his trust,
who does not turn to the proud,
    to those who (J)go astray after a lie!
You have multiplied, O Lord my God,
    your (K)wondrous deeds and your (L)thoughts toward us;
    none can compare with you!
I will proclaim and tell of them,
    yet they are (M)more than can be told.

(N)In sacrifice and offering you have not delighted,
    but you have given me an open (O)ear.[a]
Burnt offering and sin offering
    you have not required.
Then I said, “Behold, I have come;
    in the scroll of the book it is written (P)of me:
(Q)I delight to do your will, O my God;
    your law is (R)within my heart.”

I have told the glad news of deliverance[b]
    in (S)the great congregation;
behold, I have not (T)restrained my lips,
    (U)as you know, O Lord.
10 I have not hidden your deliverance within my heart;
    I have spoken of your faithfulness and your salvation;
I have not concealed your steadfast love and your faithfulness
    from the great congregation.

11 As for you, O Lord, you will not restrain
    your mercy from me;
your (V)steadfast love and your faithfulness will
    ever preserve me!
12 For evils have (W)encompassed me
    beyond number;
my (X)iniquities have overtaken me,
    and I cannot (Y)see;
they are (Z)more than the hairs of my head;
    my heart (AA)fails me.

13 (AB)Be pleased, O Lord, to (AC)deliver me!
    O Lord, (AD)make haste to help me!
14 (AE)Let those be put to shame and disappointed altogether
    who seek to snatch away my life;
let those be (AF)turned back and brought to dishonor
    who delight in my hurt!
15 Let those be appalled because of their shame
    who (AG)say to me, “Aha, Aha!”

16 But may all who seek you
    rejoice and be glad in you;
may those who love your salvation
    (AH)say continually, “Great is the Lord!”
17 As for me, I am (AI)poor and needy,
    but (AJ)the Lord takes thought for me.
You are my help and my deliverer;
    do not delay, O my God!
