詩篇 140
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
祈求上帝保護
大衛的詩，交給樂長。
140 耶和華啊！
求你拯救我脫離惡人，
保護我脫離殘暴之徒。
2 他們心懷叵測，整天挑撥離間。
3 他們的言語惡毒如蛇，
嘴唇有蛇的毒液。（細拉）
4 耶和華啊，
求你使我免遭惡人的毒手，
保護我脫離殘暴之徒。
他們圖謀害我。
5 傲慢人在我的路上暗設網羅，
佈下圈套，挖了陷阱。（細拉）
6 耶和華啊，
我說：「你是我的上帝。」
耶和華啊，求你垂聽我的呼求。
7 主耶和華，我大能的拯救者啊，
在戰爭的日子，你保護我。
8 耶和華啊，
求你不要讓惡人的願望實現，
不要讓他們的陰謀得逞，
免得他們狂妄自大。（細拉）
9 願那些圍攻我的人自食惡果。
10 願火炭落在他們身上，
願他們被丟進火裡，
被拋進深坑，不得翻身。
11 願譭謗者在地上無法立足，
願禍患毀滅殘暴之徒。
12 我知道耶和華必為貧窮人伸張正義，
為困苦者伸冤。
13 義人必讚美你的名，
正直人必活在你面前。
Psalm 140
King James Version
140 Deliver me, O Lord, from the evil man: preserve me from the violent man;
2 Which imagine mischiefs in their heart; continually are they gathered together for war.
3 They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent; adders' poison is under their lips. Selah.
4 Keep me, O Lord, from the hands of the wicked; preserve me from the violent man; who have purposed to overthrow my goings.
5 The proud have hid a snare for me, and cords; they have spread a net by the wayside; they have set gins for me. Selah.
6 I said unto the Lord, Thou art my God: hear the voice of my supplications, O Lord.
7 O God the Lord, the strength of my salvation, thou hast covered my head in the day of battle.
8 Grant not, O Lord, the desires of the wicked: further not his wicked device; lest they exalt themselves. Selah.
9 As for the head of those that compass me about, let the mischief of their own lips cover them.
10 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 an evil speaker be established in the earth: evil shall hunt the violent man to overthrow him.
12 I know that the Lord will maintain the cause of the afflicted, and the right of the poor.
13 Surely the righteous shall give thanks unto thy name: the upright shall dwell in thy presence.
