诗篇 144
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
受耶和华训导者可免敌害
144 大卫的诗。
1 耶和华我的磐石是应当称颂的！他教导我的手争战，教导我的指头打仗。
2 他是我慈爱的主，我的山寨，我的高台，我的救主，我的盾牌，是我所投靠的，他使我的百姓服在我以下。
3 耶和华啊，人算什么，你竟认识他？世人算什么，你竟顾念他？
4 人好像一口气，他的年日如同影儿快快过去。
5 耶和华啊，求你使天下垂，亲自降临；摸山，山就冒烟。
6 求你发出闪电，使他们四散，射出你的箭，使他们扰乱。
7 求你从上伸手救拔我，救我出离大水，救我脱离外邦人的手。
8 他们的口说谎话，他们的右手起假誓。
9 神啊，我要向你唱新歌，用十弦瑟向你歌颂。
10 你是那拯救君王的，你是那救仆人大卫脱离害命之刀的。
11 求你救拔我，救我脱离外邦人的手。他们的口说谎话，他们的右手起假誓。
圣民之福
12 我们的儿子从幼年好像树栽子长大，我们的女儿如同殿角石，是按建宫的样式凿成的。
13 我们的仓盈满，能出各样的粮食，我们的羊在田间孳生千万。
14 我们的牛驮着满驮，没有人闯进来抢夺，也没有人出去争战，我们的街市上也没有哭号的声音。
15 遇见这光景的百姓便为有福！有耶和华为他们的神，这百姓便为有福！

Of David.
144 ·Praise [Blessed be] the Lord, my Rock [61:2],
who trains ·me [L my hands] for war,
who trains ·me [L my fingers] for battle.
2 ·He protects me like a strong, walled city, and he loves me [L He is my loyal one and my fortress].
He is my ·defender [stronghold] and my ·Savior [rescuer],
my shield ·and my protection [L in whom I find refuge].
He ·helps me keep my people under control [L subdues my people under me].
3 Lord, ·why are people important to you [L what are people that you care about them]?
·Why do you even think about human beings [L What are human beings that you think about them; 8:4]?
4 People are like ·a breath [vapor; 39:5, 11; 62:9; Eccl. 1:2];
their ·lives [L days] are like passing shadows [102:11; 109:23; Eccl. 6:12].
5 Lord, ·tear open [bend] the ·sky [heavens] and come down.
Touch the mountains so they will smoke [18:9; Ex. 19:11, 18–19].
6 Send the lightning and scatter ·my enemies [L them].
Shoot your arrows and ·force them away [rout them; 18:14].
7 ·Reach down [L Send forth your hand] from above.
·Save me [Set me free] and ·rescue [protect] me ·out of this sea of enemies [L from the mighty waters; C symbolizing chaos],
from ·these [L the hand/power of] foreigners.
8 ·They are liars [L Their mouths speak vanities/falsehood];
·they are dishonest [L their right hand is a false right hand].
9 God, I will sing a new song [C celebrating victory; 33:3; 40:3; 96:1; 98:1; 149:1; Is. 42:10; Rev. 5:9; 14:3] to you;
I will ·play [make a psalm] to you on the ten-stringed harp.
10 You give ·victory [salvation] to kings.
You ·save [set free] your servant David from ·cruel [evil] swords.
11 ·Save me [Set me free], ·rescue [protect] me from ·these [L the hand/power of the] foreigners.
·They are liars [L Their mouths speak vanities/falsehood]; ·they are dishonest [L their right hand is a false right hand].
12 Let our sons in their youth
·grow like plants [or be like full-grown plants; C robust and vital; 128:3].
Let our daughters be
like the ·decorated [cut] ·stones [or pillars] in the ·Temple [or palace; C stately and beautiful].
13 Let our barns be filled
with crops of all kinds.
Let our sheep in the fields have
thousands and tens of thousands of lambs.
14 Let our cattle be ·strong [well fed; or heavy with young].
Let ·no one break in [L there be no breach; or no miscarriage; C in the city walls].
Let there be no ·war [L going out; C in war or exile, or perhaps referring to premature birth],
no screams in our ·streets [public areas].
15 ·Happy [Blessed] are ·those [L the people] who are like this;
·happy [blessed] are the people whose God is the Lord.
