晨兴之祈祷

大卫逃避他儿子押沙龙的时候作的诗。

耶和华啊,我的敌人何其加增!有许多人起来攻击我。
有许多人议论我说:“他得不着神的帮助。”(细拉)
但你耶和华是我四围的盾牌,是我的荣耀,又是叫我抬起头来的。
我用我的声音求告耶和华,他就从他的圣山上应允我。(细拉)
我躺下睡觉,我醒着,耶和华都保佑我。
虽有成万的百姓来周围攻击我,我也不怕。
耶和华啊,求你起来!我的神啊,求你救我!因为你打了我一切仇敌的腮骨,敲碎了恶人的牙齿。
救恩属乎耶和华,愿你赐福给你的百姓。(细拉)

This is a song that David wrote when he ran away from his son, Absalom.[a]

A morning song

Lord, every day I have more enemies.
    Many people fight against me.
They say about me,
    ‘God will not save him.’
Selah.
But Lord, you are like a shield for me.[b]
    You are the one who gives me honour.
    You lift my head up high.
I called aloud to the Lord.
    He answered me from his holy mountain.
Selah.
I lie down and I sleep.
    Then I wake up, because the Lord takes care of me.
Even if 10,000 enemies are all around me to attack me,
    I will not be afraid of them.
Lord, stand up! My God, save me from my enemies!
    Hit all my enemies in the face.
    Break the teeth of those bad people.
Lord, it is you that saves us.
    You bless your people.
Selah.
