祈求 神保護脫離惡人陰謀

大衛的詩,交給詩班長。

140 耶和華啊!求你拯救我脫離惡人,

求你保護我脫離強暴的人。

他們心中圖謀惡事,

整天挑啟爭端。

他們使自己的舌頭尖利,如同蛇的舌頭;

他們嘴裡有虺蛇的毒。(細拉)

耶和華啊!求你保護我脫離惡人的手,

保護我脫離強暴的人,

因為他們圖謀推倒我。

驕傲的人暗中布下陷阱害我,

他們在路旁張開繩索作網,

設下圈套陷害我。(細拉)

我曾對耶和華說:“你是我的 神;

耶和華啊!求你留心聽我懇求的聲音!”

主耶和華,拯救我的力量啊,

在爭戰的日子,你保護了我的頭。

耶和華啊!求你不要容惡人的心願得償,

不要使他們的計謀成功,

免得他們自高自大。(細拉)

至於那些圍困我的人,

願他們的頭被自己嘴唇的奸惡遮蓋。

10 願炭火落在他們身上;

願他們掉在深坑裡,

不能再起來。

11 願搬弄是非的人在地上站立不住;

願災禍連連獵取強暴的人。

12 我知道耶和華必為困苦人伸冤,

必替窮乏人辨屈。

13 義人必稱讚你的名,

正直的人必住在你面前。

Prayer for Deliverance from Evil Men

To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.

140 Deliver me, O Lord, from evil men;
Preserve me from violent men,
Who plan evil things in their hearts;
(A)They continually gather together for war.
They sharpen their tongues like a serpent;
The (B)poison of asps is under their lips. Selah

(C)Keep me, O Lord, from the hands of the wicked;
Preserve me from violent men,
Who have purposed to make my steps stumble.
The proud have hidden a (D)snare for me, and cords;
They have spread a net by the wayside;
They have set traps for me. Selah

I said to the Lord: “You are my God;
Hear the voice of my supplications, O Lord.
O God the Lord, the strength of my salvation,
You have [a]covered my head in the day of battle.
Do not grant, O Lord, the desires of the wicked;
Do not further his wicked scheme,
(E)Lest they be exalted. Selah

As for the head of those who surround me,
Let the evil of their lips cover them;
10 (F)Let burning coals fall upon them;
Let them be cast into the fire,
Into deep pits, that they rise not up again.
11 Let not a slanderer be established in the earth;
Let evil hunt the violent man to overthrow him.

12 I know that the Lord will (G)maintain
The cause of the afflicted,
And justice for the poor.
13 Surely the righteous shall give thanks to Your name;
The upright shall dwell in Your presence.
