撒母耳記下 22
Revised Chinese Union Version (Traditional Script) Shen Edition
大衛的凱歌(A)
22 當耶和華救大衛脫離所有仇敵和掃羅之手的日子,他用這詩的歌詞向耶和華說話。 2 他說:
耶和華是我的巖石、我的山寨、我的救主、
3 我的 神、我的磐石、我所投靠的。
他是我的盾牌,是拯救我的角,
是我的碉堡,是我的避難所,
是我的救主,救我脫離兇暴的。
4 我要求告當讚美的耶和華,
我必從仇敵手中被救出來。
5 死亡的波浪環繞我,
毀滅的急流驚嚇我,
6 陰間的繩索纏繞我,
死亡的圈套臨到我。
7 我在急難中求告耶和華,
向我的 神呼求。
他從殿中聽了我的聲音;
我的呼求進入他的耳中。
8 那時,因他發怒地就搖撼震動;
天的根基也戰抖搖撼。
9 他的鼻孔冒煙上騰;
他的口發火焚燒,連煤炭也燒着了。
10 他使天下垂,親自降臨;
黑雲在他腳下。
11 他乘坐基路伯飛行,
在風的翅膀上顯現。
12 他以黑暗和聚集的水、
天空的密雲為四圍的行宮。
13 因他發出光輝,
火炭都燒着了。
14 耶和華在天上打雷;
至高者發出聲音。
15 他射出箭來,使仇敵四散;
發出閃電,擊潰他們。
16 耶和華的斥責一發,鼻孔的氣一出,
海底就顯現,大地的根基也暴露。
17 他從高天伸手抓住我,
把我從大水中拉上來。
18 他救我脫離我的強敵,
脫離那些恨我的人,
因為他們比我強盛。
19 我遭遇災難的日子,他們來攻擊我;
但耶和華是我的倚靠。
20 他領我到寬闊之處,
他救拔我,因他喜愛我。
21 耶和華必按我的公義報答我,
按我手中的清潔賞賜我。
22 因為我遵守耶和華的道,
未曾作惡離開我的 神。
23 他的一切典章在我面前,
他的律例我也未曾丟棄。
24 我在他面前作了完全人,
我也持守自己遠離罪孽。
25 所以耶和華按我的公義,
在他眼前按我的清潔賞賜我。
26 慈愛的人,你以慈愛待他;
完全的人,你以完善待他;
27 清潔的人,你以清潔待他;
歪曲的人,你以彎曲待他。
28 困苦的百姓,你必拯救;
但你的眼目察看高傲的人,使他們降卑。
29 耶和華啊,你是我的燈;
耶和華必照明我的黑暗。
30 我藉着你衝入敵軍,
藉着我的 神跳過城牆。
31 至於 神,他的道是完全的;
耶和華的話是純淨的。
凡投靠他的,他就作他們的盾牌。
32 除了耶和華,誰是 神呢?
除了我們的 神,誰是磐石呢?
33 神是我堅固的保障,
他為我開完全的路。
34 他使我的腳快如母鹿,
使我站穩在高處。
35 他教導我的手能爭戰,
我的膀臂能開銅造的弓。
36 你賜救恩給我作盾牌,
你的庇護[a]使我為大。
37 你使我腳步寬闊,
我的腳踝未曾滑跌。
38 我追趕我的仇敵,消滅他們;
若不將他們滅絕,我總不歸回。
39 我滅絕了他們,
打傷了他們,使他們站不起來;
他們都倒在我的腳下。
40 你曾以力量束我的腰,使我能爭戰;
也曾使那起來攻擊我的,都服在我以下。
41 你又使我的仇敵在我面前轉身逃跑,
使我能殲滅那恨我的人。
42 他們仰望,卻無人拯救;
就是呼求耶和華,他也不應允。
43 我搗碎他們,如同地上的灰塵;
踐踏壓碎他們,如同街上的泥土。
44 你救我脫離我百姓[b]的紛爭,
保護我作列國的元首;
我素不認識的百姓必事奉我。
45 外邦人要向我投降,
一聽見我的名聲就必順從我。
46 外邦人要喪膽,
戰戰兢兢地出營寨。
47 耶和華永遠活着。
願我的磐石被稱頌,
願 神—救我的磐石受尊崇。
48 這位 神為我伸冤,
使萬民服在我以下。
49 他救我脫離仇敵,
又把我舉起,高過那些起來攻擊我的人,
救我脫離殘暴的人。
50 耶和華啊,因此我要在列國中稱謝你,
歌頌你的名。
51 耶和華賜極大的救恩給他所立的王,
施慈愛給他的受膏者,
就是給大衛和他的後裔,直到永遠!
2 Samuel 22
New King James Version
Praise for God’s Deliverance(A)
22 Then David (B)spoke to the Lord the words of this song, on the day when the Lord had (C)delivered him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul. 2 And he (D)said:
(E)“The Lord is my rock and my (F)fortress and my deliverer;
3 The God of my strength, (G)in whom I will trust;
My (H)shield and the (I)horn[a] of my salvation,
My (J)stronghold and my (K)refuge;
My Savior, You save me from violence.
4 I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised;
So shall I be saved from my enemies.
5 “When the waves of death surrounded me,
The floods of ungodliness [b]made me afraid.
6 The (L)sorrows of Sheol surrounded me;
The snares of death confronted me.
7 In my distress (M)I called upon the Lord,
And cried out to my God;
He (N)heard my voice from His temple,
And my cry entered His ears.
8 “Then (O)the earth shook and trembled;
(P)The foundations of [c]heaven quaked and were shaken,
Because He was angry.
9 Smoke went up from His nostrils,
And devouring (Q)fire from His mouth;
Coals were kindled by it.
10 He (R)bowed the heavens also, and came down
With (S)darkness under His feet.
11 He rode upon a cherub, and flew;
And He [d]was seen (T)upon the wings of the wind.
12 He made (U)darkness canopies around Him,
Dark waters and thick clouds of the skies.
13 From the brightness before Him
Coals of fire were kindled.
14 “The Lord (V)thundered from heaven,
And the Most High uttered His voice.
15 He sent out (W)arrows and scattered them;
Lightning bolts, and He vanquished them.
16 Then the channels of the sea (X)were seen,
The foundations of the world were uncovered,
At the (Y)rebuke of the Lord,
At the blast of the breath of His nostrils.
17 “He(Z) sent from above, He took me,
He drew me out of many waters.
18 He delivered me from my strong enemy,
From those who hated me;
For they were too strong for me.
19 They confronted me in the day of my calamity,
But the Lord was my (AA)support.
20 (AB)He also brought me out into a broad place;
He delivered me because He (AC)delighted in me.
21 “The(AD) Lord rewarded me according to my righteousness;
According to the (AE)cleanness of my hands
He has recompensed me.
22 For I have (AF)kept the ways of the Lord,
And have not wickedly departed from my God.
23 For all His (AG)judgments were before me;
And as for His statutes, I did not depart from them.
24 I was also (AH)blameless before Him,
And I kept myself from my iniquity.
25 Therefore (AI)the Lord has [e]recompensed me according to my righteousness,
According to [f]my cleanness in His eyes.
26 “With (AJ)the merciful You will show Yourself merciful;
With a blameless man You will show Yourself blameless;
27 With the pure You will show Yourself pure;
And (AK)with the devious You will show Yourself shrewd.
28 You will save the (AL)humble[g] people;
But Your eyes are on (AM)the haughty, that You may bring them down.
29 “For You are my (AN)lamp, O Lord;
The Lord shall enlighten my darkness.
30 For by You I can run against a troop;
By my God I can leap over a (AO)wall.
31 As for God, (AP)His way is perfect;
(AQ)The word of the Lord is proven;
He is a shield to all who trust in Him.
32 “For (AR)who is God, except the Lord?
And who is a rock, except our God?
33 [h]God is my (AS)strength and power,
And He (AT)makes [i]my way (AU)perfect.
34 He makes [j]my feet (AV)like the feet of deer,
And (AW)sets me on my high places.
35 He teaches my hands [k]to make war,
So that my arms can bend a bow of bronze.
36 “You have also given me the shield of Your salvation;
Your gentleness has made me great.
37 You (AX)enlarged my path under me;
So my feet did not slip.
38 “I have pursued my enemies and destroyed them;
Neither did I turn back again till they were destroyed.
39 And I have destroyed them and wounded them,
So that they could not rise;
They have fallen (AY)under my feet.
40 For You have (AZ)armed me with strength for the battle;
You have [l]subdued under me (BA)those who rose against me.
41 You have also [m]given me the (BB)necks of my enemies,
So that I destroyed those who hated me.
42 They looked, but there was none to save;
Even (BC)to the Lord, but He did not answer them.
43 Then I beat them as fine (BD)as the dust of the earth;
I trod them (BE)like dirt in the streets,
And I [n]spread them out.
44 “You(BF) have also delivered me from the [o]strivings of my people;
You have kept me as the (BG)head of the nations.
(BH)A people I have not known shall serve me.
45 The foreigners submit to me;
As soon as they hear, they obey me.
46 The foreigners fade away,
And [p]come frightened (BI)from their hideouts.
47 “The Lord lives!
Blessed be my Rock!
Let God be exalted,
The (BJ)Rock of my salvation!
48 It is God who avenges me,
And (BK)subdues the peoples under me;
49 He delivers me from my enemies.
You also lift me up above those who rise against me;
You have delivered me from the (BL)violent man.
50 Therefore I will give thanks to You, O Lord, among (BM)the Gentiles,
And sing praises to Your (BN)name.
51 “He(BO) is the tower of salvation to His king,
And shows mercy to His (BP)anointed,
To David and (BQ)his descendants forevermore.”

King James Version
22 And David spake unto the Lord the words of this song in the day that the Lord had delivered him out of the hand of all his enemies, and out of the hand of Saul:
2 And he said, The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer;
3 The God of my rock; in him will I trust: he is my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, my saviour; thou savest me from violence.
4 I will call on the Lord, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies.
5 When the waves of death compassed me, the floods of ungodly men made me afraid;
6 The sorrows of hell compassed me about; the snares of death prevented me;
7 In my distress I called upon the Lord, and cried to my God: and he did hear my voice out of his temple, and my cry did enter into his ears.
8 Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations of heaven moved and shook, because he was wroth.
9 There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it.
10 He bowed the heavens also, and came down; and darkness was under his feet.
11 And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: and he was seen upon the wings of the wind.
12 And he made darkness pavilions round about him, dark waters, and thick clouds of the skies.
13 Through the brightness before him were coals of fire kindled.
14 The Lord thundered from heaven, and the most High uttered his voice.
15 And he sent out arrows, and scattered them; lightning, and discomfited them.
16 And the channels of the sea appeared, the foundations of the world were discovered, at the rebuking of the Lord, at the blast of the breath of his nostrils.
17 He sent from above, he took me; he drew me out of many waters;
18 He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them that hated me: for they were too strong for me.
19 They prevented me in the day of my calamity: but the Lord was my stay.
20 He brought me forth also into a large place: he delivered me, because he delighted in me.
21 The Lord rewarded me according to my righteousness: according to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me.
22 For I have kept the ways of the Lord, and have not wickedly departed from my God.
23 For all his judgments were before me: and as for his statutes, I did not depart from them.
24 I was also upright before him, and have kept myself from mine iniquity.
25 Therefore the Lord hath recompensed me according to my righteousness; according to my cleanness in his eye sight.
26 With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful, and with the upright man thou wilt shew thyself upright.
27 With the pure thou wilt shew thyself pure; and with the froward thou wilt shew thyself unsavoury.
28 And the afflicted people thou wilt save: but thine eyes are upon the haughty, that thou mayest bring them down.
29 For thou art my lamp, O Lord: and the Lord will lighten my darkness.
30 For by thee I have run through a troop: by my God have I leaped over a wall.
31 As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the Lord is tried: he is a buckler to all them that trust in him.
32 For who is God, save the Lord? and who is a rock, save our God?
33 God is my strength and power: and he maketh my way perfect.
34 He maketh my feet like hinds' feet: and setteth me upon my high places.
35 He teacheth my hands to war; so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms.
36 Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy gentleness hath made me great.
37 Thou hast enlarged my steps under me; so that my feet did not slip.
38 I have pursued mine enemies, and destroyed them; and turned not again until I had consumed them.
39 And I have consumed them, and wounded them, that they could not arise: yea, they are fallen under my feet.
40 For thou hast girded me with strength to battle: them that rose up against me hast thou subdued under me.
41 Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies, that I might destroy them that hate me.
42 They looked, but there was none to save; even unto the Lord, but he answered them not.
43 Then did I beat them as small as the dust of the earth, I did stamp them as the mire of the street, and did spread them abroad.
44 Thou also hast delivered me from the strivings of my people, thou hast kept me to be head of the heathen: a people which I knew not shall serve me.
45 Strangers shall submit themselves unto me: as soon as they hear, they shall be obedient unto me.
46 Strangers shall fade away, and they shall be afraid out of their close places.
47 The Lord liveth; and blessed be my rock; and exalted be the God of the rock of my salvation.
48 It is God that avengeth me, and that bringeth down the people under me.
49 And that bringeth me forth from mine enemies: thou also hast lifted me up on high above them that rose up against me: thou hast delivered me from the violent man.
50 Therefore I will give thanks unto thee, O Lord, among the heathen, and I will sing praises unto thy name.
51 He is the tower of salvation for his king: and sheweth mercy to his anointed, unto David, and to his seed for evermore.
