诗篇 145
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
称颂 神的伟大与慈爱
大卫的赞美诗。
145 我的 神,我的王啊!我要尊崇你,(本节在《马索拉文本》包括细字标题)
我要永永远远称颂你的名。
2 我要天天称颂你,
我要永永远远赞美你的名。
3 耶和华是至大的,配受极大的赞美,
他的伟大无法测度。
4 世世代代的人都要颂赞你的作为,
他们要传扬你大能的作为。
5 他们要讲述你威严的尊荣,
我也要默想你奇妙的作为。
6 他们要述说你所行可畏的事的能力,
我也要宣扬你的伟大。
7 他们要传述你可记念、至善的名,
也要歌唱你的公义。
8 耶和华有恩典有怜悯,
不轻易发怒,大有慈爱。
9 耶和华善待万有,
他的怜悯临到他一切所造的。
10 耶和华啊!你一切所造的都要称谢你,
你的圣民也要称颂你。
11 他们要讲论你国的荣耀,
也要述说你大能的作为。
12 好使世人知道你大能的作为,
和你国威严的尊荣。
13 你的国是永远的国,
你的王权存到万代(七十士译本加上「主在他的话是信实的,在他一切的作为都是圣洁的」﹔死海古卷则有「 神在他的话是信实的,在他一切的作为都是慈爱的」和「耶和华是应当称颂的,应当永远称颂他的名」等句)。
14 跌倒的,耶和华都扶持他们;
被压迫的,他都扶他们起来。
15 万人的眼睛都仰望你,
你按时把粮食赐给他们。
16 你把手张开,
使所有生物都随愿得到饱足。
17 耶和华在他一切所行的事上,都是公义的,
他对他一切所造的,都存着慈爱的心。
18 凡是求告耶和华的,耶和华都和他们接近,
就是和所有真诚求告他的人接近。
19 敬畏他的,他必成就他们的心愿,
也必听他们的呼求,拯救他们。
20 耶和华保护所有爱他的人,
却要消灭所有恶人。
21 我的口要说赞美耶和华的话;
愿所有的人都永永远远称颂他的圣名。
Psalm 145

This is a song that David wrote to praise God.
An alphabet of praise[a]
145 Always I will praise you, my God and my king,
and I will say how great you are!
2 Because you are good, I will praise you every day.
Yes, I will always praise your name.
3 Clearly the Lord is great!
He is so great that we cannot understand it.
4 Down from father to son, people will praise you.
They will tell each other about the powerful things that you have done.
5 Everyone will speak about your glory and authority.
I also will think carefully about your great miracles.
6 Famous are the powerful things that you have done.
People will talk about them.
I also will speak about the great things that you do.
7 Good things are what everybody will remember about you.
They will sing about your justice.
8 How very kind the Lord is!
He is very patient and his faithful love continues.
9 It is the Lord who takes care of everybody.
He is kind to everything that he has made.
10 Join together to thank the Lord!
Everything that he has made will praise him.
Your own people will praise you, Lord!
11 King is who you are and your kingdom is great!
People will speak about your royal authority.
12 Let everyone agree that you do great things!
Let them say that you rule with great authority.
13 Many years your kingdom will remain, even for ever.
You will always rule your people and their descendants.
Nothing that the Lord promises is false.
He is kind in everything that he does.[b]
14 Often people fall, but the Lord lifts them up.
He helps everyone who has trouble.
15 People look to you for help.
You give them food when they need it.
16 Ready to help, you open your hand.
You give to every living thing the good things that they want.
17 So the Lord is fair in all that he does.
He always shows how much he loves us.
18 The Lord is ready to help everyone who asks him.
He is near to everyone who prays honestly.
19 Very kindly he gives his own people the things that they need.
He saves them when they call to him for help.
20 Whoever loves the Lord, he keeps safe.
But he destroys wicked people.
21 Yes, I will praise the Lord!
Everyone who lives should praise his holy name for ever!
