祈求上帝帮助

大卫的诗。

28 耶和华啊,我呼求你;
我的磐石啊,别不理我。
你若默然不语,
我必绝望而死。
我向你呼求,
向你的至圣所举手祷告时,
求你垂听。
求你不要把我与奸恶人一同责罚,
他们对邻居口蜜腹剑。
求你使他们罪有应得,
按他们的恶行,
按他们手上的罪恶报应他们。
他们既然毫不在意耶和华的作为和祂的创造,
祂必永远毁灭他们。

耶和华当受称颂!
因为祂听了我的恳求。
祂是我的力量,我的盾牌,
我信靠祂,就得帮助。
我的心欢喜雀跃,
我要歌唱赞美祂。
耶和华是祂子民的力量,
是祂膏立者得救的堡垒。
耶和华啊,
求你拯救你的子民,
赐福给你拣选的人,
如牧人般照顾他们,
永远扶持他们。

大衛的詩。

28 耶和華啊,我呼求你;
我的磐石啊,別不理我。
你若默然不語,
我必絕望而死。
我向你呼求,
向你的至聖所舉手禱告時,
求你垂聽。
求你不要把我與奸惡人一同責罰,
他們對鄰居口蜜腹劍。
求你使他們罪有應得,
按他們的惡行,
按他們手上的罪惡報應他們。
他們既然毫不在意耶和華的作為和祂的創造,
祂必永遠毀滅他們。

耶和華當受稱頌!
因為祂聽了我的懇求。
祂是我的力量,我的盾牌。
我信靠祂,就得幫助,
我的心歡喜雀躍,
我要歌唱讚美祂。
耶和華是祂子民的力量,
是祂膏立者得救的堡壘。
耶和華啊,
求你拯救你的子民,
賜福給你揀選的人,
如牧人般照顧他們,
永遠扶持他們。

A Prayer in Troubled Times

Of David.

28 Lord, my Rock [C providing protection], I ·call out to you for help [pray].
    Do not be ·deaf [silent] to me.
If you are silent,
    I will be like those ·in the grave [L who go down to the Pit; 16:10].
Hear the sound of my ·prayer [supplication],
    when I cry out to you for help.
I raise my hands
    toward your Most Holy Place [C the place where God made his presence known, the sanctuary].
Don’t drag me away with the wicked,
    with those who do evil.
They say “Peace” to their neighbors,
    but evil is in their hearts.
Pay them back for what they have done,
    for their evil deeds.
Pay them back for ·what they have done [L the work of their hands];
    give them their reward.
They don’t understand what the Lord has done
    or ·what he has made [L the work of his hands].
So he will ·knock [tear] them down
    and not ·lift [L build] them up.

·Praise [L Blessed be] the Lord,
    because he heard ·my prayer for help [L the sound of my supplication].
The Lord is my strength [Ex. 15:2] and shield.
    ·I trust [My heart has confidence in] him, and he helps me.
·I am [L My heart is] very happy,
    and I ·praise [give thanks to] him with my song.
The Lord is powerful;
    he ·gives victory [is a saving refuge] to his ·chosen one [anointed].
·Save [L Give victory to] your people
    and bless ·those who are your own [L your inheritance].
Be their shepherd and carry them forever.
