诗篇 105
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
上帝和祂的子民(A)
105 你们要称谢耶和华,呼求祂的名,
在列邦传扬祂的作为。
2 要歌颂、赞美祂,
述说祂一切奇妙的作为。
3 要以祂的圣名为荣,
愿寻求耶和华的人都欢欣。
4 要寻求耶和华和祂的能力,
时常来到祂面前。
5-6 祂仆人亚伯拉罕的后裔,
祂所拣选的雅各的子孙啊,
要记住祂所行的神迹奇事和祂口中的判词。
7 祂是我们的上帝耶和华,
祂在普天下施行审判。
8 祂永远记得祂的约,
历经千代也不忘祂的应许,
9 就是祂与亚伯拉罕所立的约,
向以撒所起的誓。
10 祂把这约定为律例赐给雅各,
定为永远的约赐给以色列。
11 祂说:“我必把迦南赐给你,
作为你的产业。”
12 那时他们人丁稀少,
在当地寄居。
13 他们在异国他乡流离飘零。
14 耶和华不容人压迫他们,
还为他们的缘故责备君王,
15 说:“不可难为我膏立的人,
也不可伤害我的先知。”
16 祂在那里降下饥荒,
断绝一切食物的供应。
17 祂派一个人率先前往,
这人就是被卖为奴隶的约瑟。
18 他被戴上脚镣,套上枷锁,
19 直到后来他的预言应验,
耶和华的话试炼了他。
20 埃及王下令释放他,
百姓的首领给他自由,
21 派他执掌朝政,
管理国中的一切,
22 有权柄管束王的大臣,
将智慧传授王的长老。
23 以色列来到埃及,
寄居在含地。
24 耶和华使祂的子民生养众多,
比他们的仇敌还要强盛。
25 祂使仇敌憎恨他们,
用诡计虐待他们。
26 祂派遣祂的仆人摩西和祂拣选的亚伦,
27 在埃及行神迹,
在含地行奇事。
28 祂降下黑暗,使黑暗笼罩那里;
他们没有违背祂的话。
29 祂使埃及的水变成血,
鱼都死去;
30 又使国中到处是青蛙,
王宫禁院也不能幸免。
31 祂一发命令,
苍蝇蜂拥而至,虱子遍满全境。
32 祂使雨变成冰雹,
遍地电光闪闪。
33 祂击倒他们的葡萄树和无花果树,
摧毁他们境内的树木。
34 祂一发声,
就飞来无数蝗虫和蚂蚱,
35 吃尽他们土地上的植物,
吃尽他们田间的出产。
36 祂又击杀他们境内所有的长子,
就是他们年轻力壮时生的长子。
37 祂带领以色列人携金带银地离开埃及,
各支派中无人畏缩。
38 埃及人惧怕他们,
乐见他们离去。
39 祂铺展云彩为他们遮荫,
晚上用火给他们照明。
40 他们祈求,
祂就赐下鹌鹑,降下天粮,
叫他们饱足。
41 祂使磐石裂开、涌出水来,
在干旱之地奔流成河。
42 因为祂没有忘记祂赐给仆人亚伯拉罕的神圣应许。
43 祂带领自己的子民欢然离去,
祂所拣选的百姓欢唱着前行。
44 祂把列国的土地赐给他们,
使他们获得别人的劳动成果。
45 祂这样做是要使他们持守祂的命令,
遵行祂的律法。
你们要赞美耶和华!
Psalm 105
Expanded Bible
God’s Love for Israel
105 Give thanks to the Lord and ·pray to him [L call on his name].
·Tell [L Make known among] the nations what he has done.
2 Sing to him; ·sing praises [make a psalm] to him.
Tell about all his ·miracles [wonderful acts].
3 ·Be glad that you are his [L Exult/Glory in his holy name];
let ·those [L the heart of those] who seek the Lord ·be happy [rejoice].
4 ·Depend on [Seek] the Lord and his strength;
always ·go to him for help [L seek his face].
5 Remember the ·miracles [wonderful acts] he has done;
remember his ·wonders [signs] and ·his decisions [L the judgments of his mouth].
6 You are ·descendants [L seed] of his servant Abraham [Gen. 12:1–3],
the children of Jacob, his chosen people.
7 He is the Lord our God.
His ·laws [justice; judgments] are for all the world.
8 He will ·keep [L remember] his ·agreement [covenant; treaty] forever;
·he will keep his promises always [L the word which he commanded, for a thousand generations].
9 He will keep the ·agreement [covenant; treaty] he ·made [L cut] with Abraham [Gen. 12:1–3; 17:23]
and the ·promise [oath] he made to Isaac [Gen. 26:3–5].
10 He made it a ·law [statute; ordinance; requirement] for the people of Jacob;
he made it an ·agreement [covenant; agreement] with Israel to last forever.
11 The Lord said, “I will give you the land of Canaan [Gen. 15:18],
·and it will belong to you [L as a portion of your inheritance].”
12 Then ·God’s people [L they] were few in number.
They were ·strangers [sojourners; wanderers; resident aliens] in the land.
13 They went from one nation to another,
from one kingdom to another.
14 But the Lord did not let anyone ·hurt [exploit; oppress] them;
he warned kings ·not to harm them [L concerning them].
15 He said, “Don’t touch my ·chosen [anointed] people,
and don’t harm my prophets.”
16 ·God [He] ·ordered [proclaimed] a ·time of hunger [famine] in the land,
and he ·destroyed all the food [L broke every staff of bread; Gen. 41:54].
17 Then he sent a man ahead of them—
Joseph, who was sold as a slave [Gen. 37; 45:5; 50:20].
18 They ·put chains around his feet [L afflicted his feet with chain]
and an iron ·ring [collar] around his neck.
19 ·Then the time he had spoken of came,
and the Lord’s words proved that Joseph was right [or Until the time he had spoken of came, the words of the Lord kept testing him].
20 The king [C of Egypt] sent for Joseph and ·freed [released] him;
the ruler of the people set him free [Gen. 41:14, 40].
21 He made him the ·master [lord] of his house;
Joseph was in charge of his riches [Acts 7:10].
22 He could ·order [bind] the princes as he wished.
He taught the older men to be wise.
23 Then Israel [C another name for Jacob, Joseph’s father] came to Egypt;
Jacob lived in the land of Ham [C Egypt; Gen. 46:1–7].
24 The Lord made his people ·grow in number [fruitful; Ex. 1:7],
and he ·made them stronger than [strengthened them against] their ·enemies [foes].
25 He ·caused the Egyptians [L turned their hearts] to hate his people
and to ·make plans [L act deceptively] against his servants [Ex. 1:8].
26 Then he sent his servant Moses,
and Aaron, whom he had chosen [Ex. 3:1—4:17].
27 They did many signs among the Egyptians
and worked ·wonders [miracles; C the plagues; Ex. 7–12] in the land of Ham [C Egypt; Gen. 46:1–7].
28 The Lord sent darkness and made the land dark,
but the Egyptians ·turned against what he said [rebelled against his word; Ex. 10:21–29].
29 He changed their water into blood
and made their fish die [Ex. 7:14–25].
30 Then their country ·was filled [swarmed] with frogs,
even in the bedrooms of their ·rulers [L kings; Ex. 8:1–17].
31 The Lord spoke and flies came [Ex. 8:20–32],
and gnats were everywhere in the country [Ex. 8:16–19].
32 He made hail fall like rain
and sent lightning through their land.
33 He struck down their grapevines and fig trees,
and he ·destroyed [shattered] every tree in the country [Ex. 9:13–35].
34 He spoke and ·grasshoppers [locusts] came;
the ·locusts [young locusts] ·were too many to count [L without number].
35 They ate all the ·plants [vegetation] in the land
and ·everything the earth produced [L the fruit of the ground; Ex. 10:1–20].
36 ·The Lord [L He] also ·killed [L struck] all the firstborn sons in the land,
the oldest son of each family [L the first of their virility; Ex. 11:1—12:30].
37 Then he brought them out with silver and gold [Ex. 12:35–36].
·Not one of his people stumbled [L There was no stumbling among the tribe].
38 The Egyptians ·were glad [rejoiced] when they left,
because ·the Egyptians were afraid of them [L dread of them fell on them; C because of the plagues].
39 ·The Lord covered them with a cloud [L He spread out a cloud as a covering]
and ·lit up the night with fire [L a fire to illuminate the night; Ex. 13:21–22].
40 When they asked, he brought them quail
and filled them with bread from heaven [Ex. 16].
41 God ·split [L opened] the rock, and water flowed out;
it ran like a river through the ·desert [wasteland; Ex. 17:1–7].
42 He remembered his holy ·promise [word]
to his servant Abraham [Gen. 12:1–3].
43 So God brought his people out with joy,
his chosen ones with singing.
44 He gave them lands of other nations,
so they received ·what others had worked for [L the labors of peoples].
45 This was so they would ·keep [observe; guard] his ·orders [statutes; ordinances; requirements]
and ·obey [protect] his ·teachings [instructions; laws].
Praise the Lord!
