诗篇 68
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
称颂 神的权能与胜利
歌一首,大卫的诗,交给诗班长。
68 愿 神兴起,愿他的仇敌四散;
愿恨恶他的人从他面前逃跑。
2 愿你把他们赶散,如同烟被风吹散一样;
愿恶人在 神面前灭亡,
好象蜡在火前熔化。
3 但愿义人在 神面前欢喜快乐;
愿他们高兴快乐。
4 你们要向 神歌唱,歌颂他的名;
为那乘车经过旷野的预备道路(本句或译:“高举那乘驾云彩之上的”);
他的名是耶和华,
你们要在他面前欢乐。
5 神在他的圣居所,
作孤儿的父亲,作寡妇的伸冤者。
6 神使孤独的有家可居住;
领被囚的出来,到丰盛之处;
唯有悖逆的住在干旱之地。
7 神啊!你领着你的子民出来,
走过旷野的时候,(细拉)
8 地就震动,
在你面前天也落下雨来;
这西奈山在 神面前,
就是在以色列的 神面前,也要震动。
9 神啊!你降下大雨,
使你贫瘠的产业得到滋润。
10 你的子民住在其中;
神啊,你满有恩慈,为贫苦的人预备了一切。
11 主发出命令,
传扬好信息的妇女就成了一大群。
12 “带领大军的君王都逃跑了,逃跑了;
住在家中的妇女分得了战利品。
13 你们躺卧在羊圈中,
如同鸽子的翅膀镀上白银,
羽毛镀上黄金。”
14 全能者赶散境内列王的时候,
就像撒们山上下大雪。
15 巴珊山是 神的山(“ 神的山”或译:“最宏伟的山”);
巴珊山是多峰多岭的山。
16 多峰多岭的山哪!
你们为甚么敌视 神所喜悦居住的山呢?
耶和华必住在那里,直到永远。
17 神的车马千千万万;
主从西奈山来到他的圣所中(本句原文作“主在其中,西奈山在圣所中”)。
18 你升到高天的时候,
掳了许多俘虏;
你在人间,就是在悖逆的人当中,
接受了礼物,
使耶和华 神可以与他们同住。
19 主,拯救我们的 神,是应当称颂的,
他天天背负我们的重担。
(细拉)
20 我们的 神是施行拯救的 神;
人能逃脱死亡,是在于主耶和华。
21 神必打碎仇敌的头颅,
就是打碎那些常行在罪中的人的脑袋。
22 主说:“我必使他们从巴珊回来,
使他们从海的深处回来;
23 好使你在他们的血中洗自己的脚(按照《马索拉文本》,本句应作“好使你在血中打碎自己的脚”;现参照《七十士译本》翻译),使你的狗的舌头也有分舔仇敌的血。”
24 神啊!人人都看见你的巡行队伍,
看见我的 神、我的君王的巡行队伍,进入圣所。
25 歌唱的在前头行,作乐的走在后面,
中间还有击鼓的少女。
26 你们要在大会中称颂 神,
以色列的子孙(“以色列的子孙”原文作“从以色列的源头来的”)啊!你们要称颂耶和华。
27 在那里有微小的便雅悯领导他们;
随后的,有犹大的领袖,成群结队,
还有西布伦和拿弗他利的领袖。
28 神(“ 神”有古抄本作“你的 神”)啊!召唤你的能力吧。
神啊!坚立你为我们作成的事吧。
29 因为你在耶路撒冷的圣殿,
众王都把礼物带来献给你。
30 求你斥责芦苇中的野兽、
成群的公牛和万民中的牛犊,
并且把贪爱银块的人践踏在脚下;
求你赶散那些喜爱战争的民族。
31 有使节从埃及出来,
古实人赶快向 神呈献礼物。
32 地上的万国啊!你们要歌颂 神,
你们要颂扬主。 (细拉)
33 歌颂那乘驾在自古就有的众天之上的主;
看哪!他发出了强而有力的声音。
34 你们要承认能力是从 神而来的,
他的威荣是在以色列之上,
他的能力显于穹苍。
35 神啊!你在你的圣所中显为可畏;
以色列的 神把能力和权能赐给他的子民。
神是应当称颂的。
Psalm 68
Easy-to-Read Version
To the director: A praise song of David.
68 God, get up and scatter your enemies!
May all your enemies run from you.
2 May your enemies be scattered
like smoke blown away by the wind.
May your enemies be destroyed
like wax melting in a fire.
3 But let good people be happy.
Let them gather before God and enjoy themselves together.
4 Sing to God! Sing praises to his name!
Prepare the way for the one who rides on the clouds.
His name is Yah.[a]
Worship before him with joy.
5 God, who lives in his holy palace, is a father to orphans,
and he takes care of widows.
6 God provides homes for those who are lonely.
He frees people from prison and makes them happy.
But those who turn against him will live in the desert.
7 God, you led your people out of Egypt.
You marched across the desert. Selah
8 The ground shook and rain poured from the sky
when God, the God of Israel, came to Sinai.
9 God, you sent the rain
to make a tired, old land strong again.
10 Your people[b] came back to live there,
and you provided good things for the poor.
11 My Lord gave the command,
and many people went to tell the good news:
12 “The armies of powerful kings ran away!
At home, the women divide the things brought from the battle.
13 Those who stayed home will share in the wealth—
metal doves with wings covered in silver and feathers sparkling with gold.”
14 God All-Powerful scattered the kings
like snow falling on Mount Zalmon.
15 Mount Bashan is a great mountain
with many high peaks.
16 But, Bashan, why are you jealous of Mount Zion?
That is where God has chosen to live.
The Lord will live there forever.
17 With his millions of chariots,
the Lord came from Sinai into the holy place.
18 You went up to your high place,
leading a parade of captives.
You received gifts from people,[c]
even those who turned against you.
The Lord God went up there to live.
19 Praise the Lord!
Every day he helps us with the loads we must carry.
He is the God who saves us. Selah
20 He is our God, the God who saves us.
My Lord God saves us from death.
21 God will smash the heads of his enemies.
He will punish those who fight against him.[d]
22 My Lord said, “If they run up to Bashan or down to the depths of the sea,
I will bring them back.
23 So you will march through pools of their blood,
and there will be plenty left for your dogs.”
24 God, everyone can see your victory parade—
the victory march of my God and King into his holy place![e]
25 Singers come marching in front, followed by the musicians;
they are surrounded by young girls playing tambourines.
26 Praise God in the meeting place.[f]
Praise the Lord, people of Israel!
27 There is the smallest tribe, Benjamin, leading them.
And there comes a large group of leaders from Judah.
Following them are the leaders of Zebulun and Naphtali.
28 God, show us your power!
Show us the power you used for us in the past.
29 Kings will bring their wealth to you,
to your Temple in Jerusalem.
30 Punish the people in Egypt.
They are like cattle in the marshes, like bulls among the calves.
You humiliated them.
You scattered them in war.
Now let them come crawling to you,
bringing their pieces of silver.
31 Messengers from Egypt will come bearing gifts.
Ethiopia will offer God their tribute.
32 Kings on earth, sing to God!
Sing songs of praise to our Lord! Selah
33 Sing to him who rides his chariot through the ancient skies.
Listen to his powerful voice!
34 Tell everyone how powerful he is!
He rules over Israel.
His power fills the skies.
35 God, you are awesome in your Temple!
The God of Israel is the one who gives strength and power to his people.
Praise God!
