称颂 神的全知与眷佑

大卫的诗,交给诗班长。

139 耶和华啊!你鉴察了我,

你认识我。(本节在《马索拉文本》包括细字标题)

我坐下,我起来,你都知道;

你在远处就明白我的意念。

我行路,我躺卧,你都细察;

我的一切行为,你都熟悉。

耶和华啊!我的舌头还没有发言,

你已经完全知道了。

你在我前后围绕着我,

你的手按在我身上。

这样的知识奇妙,是我不能理解的;

高超,是我不能达到的。

我到哪里去躲避你的灵?

我往哪里去逃避你的面呢?

如果我升到天上,你在那里;

如果我在阴间下榻,你也在那里。

如果我展开清晨的翅膀,

飞到海的极处居住,

10 就是在那里,你的手仍必引导我,

你的右手也必扶持我。

11 如果我说:“愿黑暗遮盖我,

愿我周围的亮光变成黑夜。”

12 但对你来说,黑暗也不算是黑暗,

黑夜必如同白昼一样发亮,

黑暗和光明,在你看来都是一样的。

13 我的脏腑是你所造的,

在我母腹中你塑造了我。

14 我要称谢你,因为我的受造奇妙可畏;

你的作为奇妙,

这是我深深知道的。

15 我在隐密处被造,

在地的深处被塑造,

那时,我的形体不能向你隐藏。

16 我未成形的身体,你的眼睛早已看见;

为我所定的日子,我还未度过一日,

都完全记在你的册上了。

17  神啊!你的意念对我多么珍贵(“珍贵”或译:“深奥”),

数目何等众多。

18 如果我数点,它们比海沙更多;

我睡醒的时候,仍然与你同在。

19  神啊!甚愿你杀戮恶人;

你们流人血的啊,离开我去吧!

20 他们恶意说话顶撞你,

你的仇敌妄称你的名。

21 耶和华啊!恨恶你的,我怎能不恨恶他们呢?

起来攻击你的,我怎能不厌恶他们呢?

22 我极度恨恶他们,

把他们视为我的仇敌。

23  神啊!求你鉴察我,知道我的心思;

试验我,知道我的意念。

24 看看我里面有甚么恶行没有,

引导我走永恒的道路。

Where Can I Go from Your Spirit?

For the choir director. Of David. A Psalm.

139 O Yahweh, You have (A)searched me and known me.
You (B)know [a]when I sit down and [b]when I rise up;
You (C)understand my thought from afar.
You [c](D)scrutinize my [d]path and my lying down,
And are intimately acquainted with all my ways.
[e]Even before there is a word on my tongue,
Behold, O Yahweh, You (E)know it all.
You have (F)enclosed me behind and before,
And You have (G)put Your hand upon me.
Such (H)knowledge is (I)too wonderful for me;
It is too high, I cannot attain to it.

(J)Where can I go from Your Spirit?
Or where can I flee from Your presence?
(K)If I ascend to heaven, You are there;
If I make my bed in Sheol, behold, (L)You are there.
If I lift up the wings of the dawn,
If I dwell in the remotest part of the sea,
10 Even there Your hand will (M)lead me,
And Your right hand will lay hold of me.
11 If I say, “Surely the (N)darkness will (O)bruise me,
And the light around me will be night,”
12 Even the (P)darkness is not too dark for You,
And the night is as bright as the day.
(Q)Darkness and light are alike to You.

13 For You (R)formed my [f]inward parts;
You (S)wove me in my mother’s womb.
14 I will give thanks to You, for [g]I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
(T)Wonderful are Your works,
And my soul knows it very well.
15 My [h](U)frame was not hidden from You,
When I was made in secret,
And (V)intricately woven in the (W)depths of the earth;
16 Your (X)eyes have seen my unshaped substance;
And in (Y)Your book all of them were written
The (Z)days that were formed for me,
When as yet there was not one of them.

17 How precious are Your (AA)thoughts to me, O God!
How vast is the sum of them!
18 If I should count them, they would (AB)outnumber the sand.
When (AC)I awake, I am still with You.

19 Oh that You would (AD)slay the wicked, O God!
(AE)O (AF)men of bloodshed, depart from me.
20 For they (AG)speak [i]against You wickedly,
And Your enemies [j](AH)take Your name in vain.
21 Do I not (AI)hate those who hate You, O Yahweh?
And do I not (AJ)revile those who rise up against You?
22 I hate them with the utmost hatred;
They have become my enemies.

23 (AK)Search me, O God, and know my heart;
(AL)Try me and know my anxious thoughts;
24 And see if there be any [k](AM)hurtful way in me,
And (AN)lead me in the (AO)everlasting way.

Psalm 139

For the director of music. Of David. A psalm.

You have searched me,(A) Lord,
    and you know(B) me.
You know when I sit and when I rise;(C)
    you perceive my thoughts(D) from afar.
You discern my going out(E) and my lying down;
    you are familiar with all my ways.(F)
Before a word is on my tongue
    you, Lord, know it completely.(G)
You hem me in(H) behind and before,
    and you lay your hand upon me.
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,(I)
    too lofty(J) for me to attain.

Where can I go from your Spirit?
    Where can I flee(K) from your presence?
If I go up to the heavens,(L) you are there;
    if I make my bed(M) in the depths, you are there.
If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
    if I settle on the far side of the sea,
10 even there your hand will guide me,(N)
    your right hand(O) will hold me fast.
11 If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me
    and the light become night around me,”
12 even the darkness will not be dark(P) to you;
    the night will shine like the day,
    for darkness is as light to you.

13 For you created my inmost being;(Q)
    you knit me together(R) in my mother’s womb.(S)
14 I praise you(T) because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
    your works are wonderful,(U)
    I know that full well.
15 My frame was not hidden from you
    when I was made(V) in the secret place,
    when I was woven together(W) in the depths of the earth.(X)
16 Your eyes saw my unformed body;
    all the days ordained(Y) for me were written in your book
    before one of them came to be.
17 How precious to me are your thoughts,[a](Z) God!(AA)
    How vast is the sum of them!
18 Were I to count them,(AB)
    they would outnumber the grains of sand(AC)
    when I awake,(AD) I am still with you.

19 If only you, God, would slay the wicked!(AE)
    Away from me,(AF) you who are bloodthirsty!(AG)
20 They speak of you with evil intent;
    your adversaries(AH) misuse your name.(AI)
21 Do I not hate those(AJ) who hate you, Lord,
    and abhor(AK) those who are in rebellion against you?
22 I have nothing but hatred for them;
    I count them my enemies.(AL)
23 Search me,(AM) God, and know my heart;(AN)
    test me and know my anxious thoughts.
24 See if there is any offensive way(AO) in me,
    and lead me(AP) in the way everlasting.
