诗篇 119
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
遵行 神律例是有福的
119 行为完全，
遵行耶和华律法的，都是有福的。
2 谨守他的法度，
全心寻求他的，都是有福的。
3 他们不作不义的事；
他们遵行他的道。
4 你曾把你的训词吩咐我们，
要我们殷勤遵守。
5 但愿我的道路坚定，
为要遵守你的律例。
6 我重视你的一切诫命，
就不至于羞愧。
7 我学会了你公义的法则，
就以正直的心称谢你。
8 我必遵守你的律例，
求你不要把我弃绝。
谨守 神的话可免犯罪
9 少年人用甚么洁净自己的行为呢？
就是要遵守你的话。
10 我一心寻求你，
求你不要容我偏离你的诫命。
11 我把你的话藏在心里，
免得我得罪你。
12 耶和华啊！你是该受称颂的；
求你把你的律例教导我。

如同喜欢一切财富。

重视你的道路。
16 我喜爱你的律例，
我不会忘记你的话。
爱慕 神典章必有喜乐

使我能看出你律法的奇妙。
19 我是在世上作寄居的，
求你不要向我隐瞒你的命令。
20 我常常切慕你的典章，
以致我心力交瘁。
21 那些受咒诅的傲慢人，和那些偏离了你诫命的人，
你必斥责他们。
22 求你除去我所受的羞辱和藐视，
因为我遵守你的法度。
23 虽有作领袖的坐着毁谤我，
你的仆人却默想你的律例。
24 你的法度是我的喜乐，
是我的谋士。
恳求 神教导明白律法
25 我快要归回尘土，
求你按着你的话把我救活过来。
26 我陈明我所行的，你就应允了我；
求你把你的律例教导我。

我就默想你的奇妙。
28 我因愁苦而流泪，
求你照着你的话使我坚强。
29 求你使我离开虚谎的路，
施恩把你的律法赐给我。
30 我拣选了信实的道路，
我把你的典章摆在我面前。
31 我紧守你的法度，
耶和华啊！求你不要使我蒙羞。
32 因为你使我的心舒畅，
我就跑在你诫命的路上。
立志一心遵守 神诫命

38 求你向你的仆人实践你的诺言，
就是你向敬畏你的人所应许的。
39 求你使我所怕的羞辱离开我，
因为你的典章都是美好的。
40 我切慕你的训词，求你使我活在你的公义中。
信靠 神应许必不蒙羞
41 耶和华啊！愿你照着你的应许，
使你的慈爱、你的救恩临到我。
42 我就有话回答那羞辱我的，
因为我倚靠你的话。
43 求你使真理的话总不离开我的口，
因为我仰望你的典章。
44 我要常常谨守你的律法，
直到永远。
45 我必行在宽阔之处，
因为我一向寻求你的训词。
46 我在君王面前讲论你的法度，
也不以为耻。

我也要默想你的律例。
神的话满有盼望安慰
49 求你记念你向你仆人应许的话，
因为你使我有盼望。
50 你的应许使我存活；
这就是我在困苦中的安慰。
51 骄傲的人苛刻地讥诮我，
我却没有偏离你的律法。
52 耶和华啊！我思念你在古时赐下的典章，
我就得了安慰。
53 因为恶人离弃你的律法，
我就非常忿怒。
54 在我寄居的住所里，
你的律例成了我的诗歌。
55 耶和华啊！我在夜间记念你的名，
我要谨守你的律法。
56 我这样作，
是因为我遵守你的训词。
谨守 神的话不敢忘记
57 耶和华啊！你是我的业分，
我曾说我要谨守你的话。
58 我曾一心向你乞恩，
愿你照着你的应许恩待我。
59 我思想我所行的道路，
就转回脚步归向你的法度。
60 我赶快谨守你的命令，
不敢耽延。
61 恶人的绳索虽然捆绑我，
我却不忘记你的律法。
62 因你公义的典章，
我半夜起来称谢你。
63 凡是敬畏你，谨守你训词的，
我都与他们为友。
64 耶和华啊！你的慈爱遍满大地；
求你把你的律例教导我。
苦难使人学习 神律例
65 耶和华啊！你向来照着你的话，
善待你的仆人。
66 求你把聪明和知识指教我，
因为我信靠你的命令。
67 我受苦以先，犯了错误；
现在我谨守你的话。
68 你本是良善的，你所行的也是良善的；
求你把你的律例教导我。
69 傲慢人用谎言中伤我，
我却一心遵守你的训词。
70 他们的心麻木如同脂油，
我却喜欢你的律法。
71 我受苦是对我有益的，
为要使我学习你的律例。
72 你口中的律法对我有益，
胜过千千万万的金银。
仰望 神的话必得安慰
73 你的手造了我，建立了我；
求你使我有悟性，可以学习你的命令。
74 愿敬畏你的人看见我就欢喜，
因为我仰望你的话。
75 耶和华啊！我知道你的判语是公义的，
为了你的信实，你使我受苦。
76 求你按着你给你仆人的应许，
以你的慈爱安慰我。
77 愿你的怜悯临到我，使我活着，
因为我喜欢你的律法。
78 愿傲慢人蒙羞，因为他们以诡诈诬蔑我；
至于我，我却要默想你的训词。
79 愿敬畏你、知道你法度的人，
都归向我；
80 愿我的心在你的律例上无可指摘，
使我不至蒙羞。
逼迫中仍谨记 神律例
81 我渴望你的救恩以致心力衰竭，
但我仍仰望你的话。
82 我仰望你的应许以致眼睛昏花，
我说：“你甚么时候才安慰我呢？”
83 我虽然好象烟熏的皮袋，
我却没有忘记你的律例。
84 你仆人的日子还有多少？
你甚么时候才向那些逼迫我的人施行审判呢？
85 傲慢人为我掘了坑，
他们就是那些不按着你律法而行的人。
86 你的一切命令都是可信靠的；
他们以诡诈逼迫我，求你帮助我。
87 他们几乎把我从世上除灭了；
至于我，我却没有离弃你的训词。
88 求你照着你的慈爱使我存活，
我就必谨守你口中的法度。
神的话永远坚立长存
89 耶和华啊！你的话存到永远，
坚立在天上。
90 你的信实存到万代；
你坚立了地，地就长存。
91 天地照着你的安排存到今日，
因为万有都是你的仆役。
92 如果我不是喜欢你的律法，
就早已在苦难中灭亡了。
93 我永远不会忘记你的训词，
因为你用这些训词使我存活。
94 我是属于你的，求你拯救我，
因为我寻求你的训词。
95 恶人等待着要把我毁灭，
我却思考你的法度。
96 我看一切圆满的事都有尽头，
只有你的命令是广阔无边的。
神训词使人明白事理
97 我多么爱慕你的律法，
终日不住地默想。
98 你的命令使我比我的仇敌更有智慧，
因为你的命令常存在我里面。
99 我比我所有的老师明智，
因为我默想你的法度。
100 我比老年人更明理，
因为我遵守你的训词。
101 我制止我的脚不走任何邪恶的路，
为要谨守你的话。
102 我没有偏离你的典章，
因为你亲自教导了我。
103 你的话语在我的上膛多么甜美，
在我的口中比蜂蜜更甜。
104 我借着你的训词，得以明白事理；
因此，我恨恶一切虚谎的道。
立誓专心遵行 神律例
105 你的话是我脚前的灯，
是我路上的光。
106 我曾起誓，并且坚守誓言，
我必遵守你公义的典章。
107 我受苦极重；
耶和华啊！求你照着你的应许使我存活。
108 耶和华啊！求你悦纳我口中的甘心祭，
又把你的典章教导我。
109 我的性命常在危险中，
我却没有忘记你的律法。
110 恶人虽然设下陷阱要害我，
我却没有偏离你的训词。
111 我以你的法度为我永远的产业；
因为它们是我心中的喜乐。
112 我专心遵行你的律例，
永不改变，遵行到底。
重视 神律例必蒙扶持
113 我恨恶心怀二意的人，
我却喜爱你的律法。
114 你是我的避难所，我的盾牌；
我仰望你的话。
115 作恶的人哪！你们离开我吧，
好让我遵守我 神的命令。
116 求你照着你的应许扶持我，使我存活；
不要使我因仰望你而蒙羞。
117 求你扶持我，我就必得救；
我必常常重视你的律例。
118 偏离你的律例的，你都把他们弃绝；
他们的诡诈是徒然的。
119 世上所有的恶人，你都把他们除灭，如同除去渣滓，
因此我喜爱你的法度。
120 我因惧怕你而战栗；
我畏惧你的审判。
秉行 神律法确保福乐
121 我曾秉公行义；
求你不要把我撇下，交给欺压我的人。
122 求你作你仆人的保证人，确保我的好处；
不要容傲慢人欺压我。
123 因盼望你的救恩和你公义的应许，
我的眼睛都昏花了。
124 求你按着你的慈爱待你的仆人，
把你的律例教导我。
125 我是你的仆人，求你赐我悟性，
使我可以明白你的法度。
126 现在是耶和华行动的时候；
因为人都违犯了你的律法。
127 因此我爱你的命令，
胜过金子，甚至胜过精金。
128 在一切事上，你所有的训词我都视为正直；
我恨恶一切虚谎的道。
切慕 神命令，祈愿遵行
129 你的法度奇妙，
所以我必遵守你的法度，
130 你的话一解开，就发出亮光，
使愚人有悟性。
131 我张口喘气，
因为我切慕你的命令。
132 求你转向我，恩待我；
像你素常对待那些爱你名的人那样。
133 求你用你的话引导我的脚步，
不容甚么罪孽辖制我。
134 求你救赎我脱离人的欺压，
好让我谨守你的训词。
135 求你用你的脸光照你的仆人，
把你的律例教导我。
136 我的眼泪像河水涌流，
因为人都不谨守你的律法。
神的话正直可信可靠

为要默想你的话语。

像得了许多战利品的人一样。

11 Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.
12 Blessed art thou, O Lord: teach me thy statutes.
13 With my lips have I declared all the judgments of thy mouth.

17 Deal bountifully with thy servant, that I may live, and keep thy word.
18 Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law.
19 I am a stranger in the earth: hide not thy commandments from me.
20 My soul breaketh for the longing that it hath unto thy judgments at all times.
21 Thou hast rebuked the proud that are cursed, which do err from thy commandments.
22 Remove from me reproach and contempt; for I have kept thy testimonies.
23 Princes also did sit and speak against me: but thy servant did meditate in thy statutes.
24 Thy testimonies also are my delight and my counselors.
25 My soul cleaveth unto the dust: quicken thou me according to thy word.
26 I have declared my ways, and thou heardest me: teach me thy statutes.
27 Make me to understand the way of thy precepts: so shall I talk of thy wondrous works.
28 My soul melteth for heaviness: strengthen thou me according unto thy word.
29 Remove from me the way of lying: and grant me thy law graciously.
30 I have chosen the way of truth: thy judgments have I laid before me.
31 I have stuck unto thy testimonies: O Lord, put me not to shame.
32 I will run the way of thy commandments, when thou shalt enlarge my heart.
33 Teach me, O Lord, the way of thy statutes; and I shall keep it unto the end.
34 Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law; yea, I shall observe it with my whole heart.
35 Make me to go in the path of thy commandments; for therein do I delight.
36 Incline my heart unto thy testimonies, and not to covetousness.

39 Turn away my reproach which I fear: for thy judgments are good.
40 Behold, I have longed after thy precepts: quicken me in thy righteousness.
41 Let thy mercies come also unto me, O Lord, even thy salvation, according to thy word.
42 So shall I have wherewith to answer him that reproacheth me: for I trust in thy word.
43 And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth; for I have hoped in thy judgments.
44 So shall I keep thy law continually for ever and ever.
45 And I will walk at liberty: for I seek thy precepts.
46 I will speak of thy testimonies also before kings, and will not be ashamed.
47 And I will delight myself in thy commandments, which I have loved.
48 My hands also will I lift up unto thy commandments, which I have loved; and I will meditate in thy statutes.
49 Remember the word unto thy servant, upon which thou hast caused me to hope.
50 This is my comfort in my affliction: for thy word hath quickened me.
51 The proud have had me greatly in derision: yet have I not declined from thy law.
52 I remembered thy judgments of old, O Lord; and have comforted myself.
53 Horror hath taken hold upon me because of the wicked that forsake thy law.
54 Thy statutes have been my songs in the house of my pilgrimage.
55 I have remembered thy name, O Lord, in the night, and have kept thy law.
56 This I had, because I kept thy precepts.
57 Thou art my portion, O Lord: I have said that I would keep thy words.
58 I intreated thy favour with my whole heart: be merciful unto me according to thy word.
59 I thought on my ways, and turned my feet unto thy testimonies.
60 I made haste, and delayed not to keep thy commandments.
61 The bands of the wicked have robbed me: but I have not forgotten thy law.
62 At midnight I will rise to give thanks unto thee because of thy righteous judgments.
63 I am a companion of all them that fear thee, and of them that keep thy precepts.
64 The earth, O Lord, is full of thy mercy: teach me thy statutes.
65 Thou hast dealt well with thy servant, O Lord, according unto thy word.
66 Teach me good judgment and knowledge: for I have believed thy commandments.
67 Before I was afflicted I went astray: but now have I kept thy word.
68 Thou art good, and doest good; teach me thy statutes.
69 The proud have forged a lie against me: but I will keep thy precepts with my whole heart.
70 Their heart is as fat as grease; but I delight in thy law.
71 It is good for me that I have been afflicted; that I might learn thy statutes.
72 The law of thy mouth is better unto me than thousands of gold and silver.
73 Thy hands have made me and fashioned me: give me understanding, that I may learn thy commandments.
74 They that fear thee will be glad when they see me; because I have hoped in thy word.
75 I know, O Lord, that thy judgments are right, and that thou in faithfulness hast afflicted me.
76 Let, I pray thee, thy merciful kindness be for my comfort, according to thy word unto thy servant.
77 Let thy tender mercies come unto me, that I may live: for thy law is my delight.
78 Let the proud be ashamed; for they dealt perversely with me without a cause: but I will meditate in thy precepts.
79 Let those that fear thee turn unto me, and those that have known thy testimonies.
80 Let my heart be sound in thy statutes; that I be not ashamed.
81 My soul fainteth for thy salvation: but I hope in thy word.
82 Mine eyes fail for thy word, saying, When wilt thou comfort me?
83 For I am become like a bottle in the smoke; yet do I not forget thy statutes.
84 How many are the days of thy servant? when wilt thou execute judgment on them that persecute me?
85 The proud have digged pits for me, which are not after thy law.
86 All thy commandments are faithful: they persecute me wrongfully; help thou me.
87 They had almost consumed me upon earth; but I forsook not thy precepts.
88 Quicken me after thy lovingkindness; so shall I keep the testimony of thy mouth.
89 For ever, O Lord, thy word is settled in heaven.
90 Thy faithfulness is unto all generations: thou hast established the earth, and it abideth.
91 They continue this day according to thine ordinances: for all are thy servants.
92 Unless thy law had been my delights, I should then have perished in mine affliction.
93 I will never forget thy precepts: for with them thou hast quickened me.
94 I am thine, save me: for I have sought thy precepts.
95 The wicked have waited for me to destroy me: but I will consider thy testimonies.
96 I have seen an end of all perfection: but thy commandment is exceeding broad.
97 O how love I thy law! it is my meditation all the day.
98 Thou through thy commandments hast made me wiser than mine enemies: for they are ever with me.
99 I have more understanding than all my teachers: for thy testimonies are my meditation.
100 I understand more than the ancients, because I keep thy precepts.
101 I have refrained my feet from every evil way, that I might keep thy word.
102 I have not departed from thy judgments: for thou hast taught me.
103 How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth!
104 Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way.
105 Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
106 I have sworn, and I will perform it, that I will keep thy righteous judgments.
107 I am afflicted very much: quicken me, O Lord, according unto thy word.
108 Accept, I beseech thee, the freewill offerings of my mouth, O Lord, and teach me thy judgments.
109 My soul is continually in my hand: yet do I not forget thy law.
110 The wicked have laid a snare for me: yet I erred not from thy precepts.
111 Thy testimonies have I taken as an heritage for ever: for they are the rejoicing of my heart.
112 I have inclined mine heart to perform thy statutes alway, even unto the end.
113 I hate vain thoughts: but thy law do I love.
114 Thou art my hiding place and my shield: I hope in thy word.
115 Depart from me, ye evildoers: for I will keep the commandments of my God.
116 Uphold me according unto thy word, that I may live: and let me not be ashamed of my hope.
117 Hold thou me up, and I shall be safe: and I will have respect unto thy statutes continually.
118 Thou hast trodden down all them that err from thy statutes: for their deceit is falsehood.
119 Thou puttest away all the wicked of the earth like dross: therefore I love thy testimonies.
120 My flesh trembleth for fear of thee; and I am afraid of thy judgments.
121 I have done judgment and justice: leave me not to mine oppressors.
122 Be surety for thy servant for good: let not the proud oppress me.
123 Mine eyes fail for thy salvation, and for the word of thy righteousness.
124 Deal with thy servant according unto thy mercy, and teach me thy statutes.
125 I am thy servant; give me understanding, that I may know thy testimonies.
126 It is time for thee, Lord, to work: for they have made void thy law.
127 Therefore I love thy commandments above gold; yea, above fine gold.
128 Therefore I esteem all thy precepts concerning all things to be right; and I hate every false way.
129 Thy testimonies are wonderful: therefore doth my soul keep them.
130 The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.
131 I opened my mouth, and panted: for I longed for thy commandments.
132 Look thou upon me, and be merciful unto me, as thou usest to do unto those that love thy name.
133 Order my steps in thy word: and let not any iniquity have dominion over me.
134 Deliver me from the oppression of man: so will I keep thy precepts.
135 Make thy face to shine upon thy servant; and teach me thy statutes.
136 Rivers of waters run down mine eyes, because they keep not thy law.
137 Righteous art thou, O Lord, and upright are thy judgments.
138 Thy testimonies that thou hast commanded are righteous and very faithful.
139 My zeal hath consumed me, because mine enemies have forgotten thy words.
140 Thy word is very pure: therefore thy servant loveth it.
141 I am small and despised: yet do not I forget thy precepts.
142 Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and thy law is the truth.
143 Trouble and anguish have taken hold on me: yet thy commandments are my delights.
144 The righteousness of thy testimonies is everlasting: give me understanding, and I shall live.
145 I cried with my whole heart; hear me, O Lord: I will keep thy statutes.
146 I cried unto thee; save me, and I shall keep thy testimonies.
147 I prevented the dawning of the morning, and cried: I hoped in thy word.
148 Mine eyes prevent the night watches, that I might meditate in thy word.
149 Hear my voice according unto thy lovingkindness: O Lord, quicken me according to thy judgment.
150 They draw nigh that follow after mischief: they are far from thy law.
151 Thou art near, O Lord; and all thy commandments are truth.
152 Concerning thy testimonies, I have known of old that thou hast founded them for ever.
153 Consider mine affliction, and deliver me: for I do not forget thy law.
154 Plead my cause, and deliver me: quicken me according to thy word.
155 Salvation is far from the wicked: for they seek not thy statutes.
156 Great are thy tender mercies, O Lord: quicken me according to thy judgments.
157 Many are my persecutors and mine enemies; yet do I not decline from thy testimonies.
158 I beheld the transgressors, and was grieved; because they kept not thy word.
159 Consider how I love thy precepts: quicken me, O Lord, according to thy lovingkindness.
160 Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever.
161 Princes have persecuted me without a cause: but my heart standeth in awe of thy word.
162 I rejoice at thy word, as one that findeth great spoil.
163 I hate and abhor lying: but thy law do I love.
164 Seven times a day do I praise thee because of thy righteous judgments.
165 Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them.
166 Lord, I have hoped for thy salvation, and done thy commandments.
167 My soul hath kept thy testimonies; and I love them exceedingly.
168 I have kept thy precepts and thy testimonies: for all my ways are before thee.
169 Let my cry come near before thee, O Lord: give me understanding according to thy word.
170 Let my supplication come before thee: deliver me according to thy word.
171 My lips shall utter praise, when thou hast taught me thy statutes.
172 My tongue shall speak of thy word: for all thy commandments are righteousness.
173 Let thine hand help me; for I have chosen thy precepts.
174 I have longed for thy salvation, O Lord; and thy law is my delight.
175 Let my soul live, and it shall praise thee; and let thy judgments help me.
176 I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek thy servant; for I do not forget thy commandments.
