遇極苦時之祈禱

22 大衛的詩,交於伶長。調用朝鹿。

我的神!我的神!為什麼離棄我?為什麼遠離不救我,不聽我唉哼的言語?
我的神啊,我白日呼求,你不應允;夜間呼求,並不住聲。
但你是聖潔的,是用以色列的讚美為寶座[a]的。
我們的祖宗倚靠你,他們倚靠你,你便解救他們。
他們哀求你便蒙解救,他們倚靠你就不羞愧。
但我是蟲,不是人,被眾人羞辱,被百姓藐視。
凡看見我的都嗤笑我,他們撇嘴搖頭,說:
「他把自己交託耶和華,耶和華可以救他吧!耶和華既喜悅他,可以搭救他吧!」
但你是叫我出母腹的,我在母懷裡,你就使我有倚靠的心。
10 我自出母胎就被交在你手裡,從我母親生我,你就是我的神。
11 求你不要遠離我,因為急難臨近了,沒有人幫助我。
12 有許多公牛圍繞我,巴珊大力的公牛四面困住我。
13 牠們向我張口,好像抓撕吼叫的獅子。
14 我如水被倒出來,我的骨頭都脫了節,我心在我裡面如蠟熔化。
15 我的精力枯乾,如同瓦片,我的舌頭貼在我牙床上。你將我安置在死地的塵土中。
16 犬類圍著我,惡黨環繞我,他們扎了我的手、我的腳。
17 我的骨頭我都能數過,他們瞪著眼看我。
18 他們分我的外衣,為我的裡衣拈鬮。
19 耶和華啊,求你不要遠離我!我的救主啊,求你快來幫助我!
20 求你救我的靈魂脫離刀劍,救我的生命[b]脫離犬類!
21 救我脫離獅子的口!你已經應允我,使我脫離野牛的角。

謝主恩佑之稱頌

22 我要將你的名傳於我的弟兄,在會中我要讚美你。

23 你們敬畏耶和華的人,要讚美他!雅各的後裔,都要榮耀他!以色列的後裔,都要懼怕他!
24 因為他沒有藐視、憎惡受苦的人,也沒有向他掩面,那受苦之人呼籲的時候,他就垂聽。
25 我在大會中讚美你的話是從你而來的,我要在敬畏耶和華的人面前還我的願。
26 謙卑的人必吃得飽足,尋求耶和華的人必讚美他。願你們的心永遠活著!
27 地的四極都要想念耶和華,並且歸順他,列國的萬族都要在你面前敬拜。
28 因為國權是耶和華的,他是管理萬國的。
29 地上一切豐肥的人必吃喝而敬拜,凡下到塵土中不能存活自己性命的人,都要在他面前下拜。
30 他必有後裔侍奉他,主所行的事必傳於後代。
31 他們必來把他的公義傳給將要生的民,言明這事是他所行的。

苦难中的呼求和感恩

大卫的诗,交给乐长,调用“朝鹿”。

22 我的上帝,我的上帝,
你为何离弃我?
为何迟迟不来救我,
不听我的哀号呢?
我的上帝啊,
我日夜不停地呼求,
你却没有回应。
然而,你是圣洁的,
你的宝座设立在以色列人的颂赞之上。
我们的祖先信靠你,
他们信靠你,
你就拯救他们。
他们向你呼求,
就得到拯救;
他们信靠你,
就不会失望。

但我好像不是人,只是一条虫,
受尽人的羞辱和藐视。
看见我的人都讥笑我,
他们撇着嘴、摇着头说:
“他信靠耶和华,
让耶和华救他吧!
既然耶和华喜悦他,
让耶和华拯救他吧!”
耶和华啊,
是你使我从母腹中安然出生,
让我在母亲怀里便倚靠你。
10 我一出生就被交托在你手中,
你从我出母胎就是我的上帝。
11 求你不要远离我,
因为危难当头,无人帮我。
12 我被许多仇敌围困,
他们像巴珊的公牛那样强壮。
13 他们张口要吞噬我,
如同吼叫着撕食猎物的狮子。

14 我的力量如水消逝,
我的骨头都脱了节,
我的心如蜡熔化。
15 我的力量枯竭如焦土,
我的舌头发干紧贴上颚。
你把我放在死亡的尘土中。
16 恶人包围我,犹如一群恶犬,
他们刺伤我的手脚。
17 我身上的骨头历历可见,
人们都幸灾乐祸地看着我。
18 他们分我的外衣,
又为我的内衣抽签。
19 耶和华啊,求你不要远离我。
你是我的力量,
求你快来帮助我。
20 求你救我逃脱刀剑之灾,
从这些恶犬的利爪下拯救我的生命。
21 求你救我脱离狮子的口,
使我脱离野牛的角。

22 我要向众弟兄传扬你的名,
在会众当中赞美你。
23 敬畏耶和华的人啊,
你们都要赞美祂,
雅各的后裔都要尊崇祂的名,
以色列的后裔都要敬畏祂。
24 因为祂没有藐视、厌恶苦难中的人,
也没有掩面不顾他们,
而是垂听他们的呼求。

25 我要在大会中赞美你,
在敬畏你的人面前履行我的誓言。
26 穷苦人必得饱足,
寻求耶和华的人必赞美祂,
他们的心要永远欢欣跳跃。
27 普世都要心系耶和华,归向祂,
各国人民都要敬拜祂。
28 因为耶和华是主宰,
祂统治列国。
29 世上的富贵人要敬拜祂,
必归尘土的世人都要敬拜祂。
30 世世代代的人都要事奉祂,
传扬主所行的奇事。
31 他们也要向未来的世代传讲祂的公义作为。

Psalm 22[a]

For the director of music. To the tune of “The Doe of the Morning.” A psalm of David.

My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?(A)
    Why are you so far(B) from saving me,
    so far from my cries of anguish?(C)
My God, I cry out by day, but you do not answer,(D)
    by night,(E) but I find no rest.[b]

Yet you are enthroned as the Holy One;(F)
    you are the one Israel praises.[c](G)
In you our ancestors put their trust;
    they trusted and you delivered them.(H)
To you they cried out(I) and were saved;
    in you they trusted(J) and were not put to shame.(K)

But I am a worm(L) and not a man,
    scorned by everyone,(M) despised(N) by the people.
All who see me mock me;(O)
    they hurl insults,(P) shaking their heads.(Q)
“He trusts in the Lord,” they say,
    “let the Lord rescue him.(R)
Let him deliver him,(S)
    since he delights(T) in him.”

Yet you brought me out of the womb;(U)
    you made me trust(V) in you, even at my mother’s breast.
10 From birth(W) I was cast on you;
    from my mother’s womb you have been my God.

11 Do not be far from me,(X)
    for trouble is near(Y)
    and there is no one to help.(Z)

12 Many bulls(AA) surround me;(AB)
    strong bulls of Bashan(AC) encircle me.
13 Roaring lions(AD) that tear their prey(AE)
    open their mouths wide(AF) against me.
14 I am poured out like water,
    and all my bones are out of joint.(AG)
My heart has turned to wax;(AH)
    it has melted(AI) within me.
15 My mouth[d] is dried up like a potsherd,(AJ)
    and my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth;(AK)
    you lay me in the dust(AL) of death.

16 Dogs(AM) surround me,
    a pack of villains encircles me;
    they pierce[e](AN) my hands and my feet.
17 All my bones are on display;
    people stare(AO) and gloat over me.(AP)
18 They divide my clothes among them
    and cast lots(AQ) for my garment.(AR)

19 But you, Lord, do not be far from me.(AS)
    You are my strength;(AT) come quickly(AU) to help me.(AV)
20 Deliver me from the sword,(AW)
    my precious life(AX) from the power of the dogs.(AY)
21 Rescue me from the mouth of the lions;(AZ)
    save me from the horns of the wild oxen.(BA)

22 I will declare your name to my people;
    in the assembly(BB) I will praise you.(BC)
23 You who fear the Lord, praise him!(BD)
    All you descendants of Jacob, honor him!(BE)
    Revere him,(BF) all you descendants of Israel!
24 For he has not despised(BG) or scorned
    the suffering of the afflicted one;(BH)
he has not hidden his face(BI) from him
    but has listened to his cry for help.(BJ)

25 From you comes the theme of my praise in the great assembly;(BK)
    before those who fear you[f] I will fulfill my vows.(BL)
26 The poor will eat(BM) and be satisfied;
    those who seek the Lord will praise him—(BN)
    may your hearts live forever!

27 All the ends of the earth(BO)
    will remember and turn to the Lord,
and all the families of the nations
    will bow down before him,(BP)
28 for dominion belongs to the Lord(BQ)
    and he rules over the nations.

29 All the rich(BR) of the earth will feast and worship;(BS)
    all who go down to the dust(BT) will kneel before him—
    those who cannot keep themselves alive.(BU)
30 Posterity(BV) will serve him;
    future generations(BW) will be told about the Lord.
31 They will proclaim his righteousness,(BX)
    declaring to a people yet unborn:(BY)
    He has done it!(BZ)

22 My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?

O my God, I cry in the day time, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent.

But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.

Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them.

They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.

But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.

All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying,

He trusted on the Lord that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.

But thou art he that took me out of the womb: thou didst make me hope when I was upon my mother's breasts.

10 I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother's belly.

11 Be not far from me; for trouble is near; for there is none to help.

12 Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.

13 They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion.

14 I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.

15 My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.

16 For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet.

17 I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me.

18 They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.

19 But be not thou far from me, O Lord: O my strength, haste thee to help me.

20 Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog.

21 Save me from the lion's mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns.

22 I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.

23 Ye that fear the Lord, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel.

24 For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard.

25 My praise shall be of thee in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him.

26 The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the Lord that seek him: your heart shall live for ever.

27 All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the Lord: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee.

28 For the kingdom is the Lord's: and he is the governor among the nations.

29 All they that be fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his own soul.

30 A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation.

31 They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done this.
