诗篇 31
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
依赖耶和华求其救援
31 大卫的诗，交于伶长。
1 耶和华啊，我投靠你，求你使我永不羞愧，凭你的公义搭救我。
2 求你侧耳而听，快快救我，做我坚固的磐石、拯救我的保障。
3 因为你是我的岩石，我的山寨，所以求你为你名的缘故，引导我，指点我。
4 求你救我脱离人为我暗设的网罗，因为你是我的保障。
5 我将我的灵魂交在你手里，耶和华诚实的神啊，你救赎了我！
6 我恨恶那信奉虚无之神的人，我却倚靠耶和华。
7 我要为你的慈爱高兴欢喜，因为你见过我的困苦，知道我心中的艰难。
8 你未曾把我交在仇敌手里，你使我的脚站在宽阔之处。
9 耶和华啊，求你怜恤我，因为我在急难之中，我的眼睛因忧愁而干瘪，连我的身心也不安舒。
10 我的生命为愁苦所消耗，我的年岁为叹息所旷废，我的力量因我的罪孽衰败，我的骨头也枯干。
11 我因一切敌人成了羞辱，在我的邻舍跟前更甚。那认识我的都惧怕我，在外头看见我的都躲避我。
12 我被人忘记，如同死人，无人记念，我好像破碎的器皿。
13 我听见了许多人的谗谤，四围都是惊吓。他们一同商议攻击我的时候，就图谋要害我的性命。
14 耶和华啊，我仍旧倚靠你，我说：“你是我的神！”
15 我终身的事在你手中，求你救我脱离仇敌的手和那些逼迫我的人。
16 求你使你的脸光照仆人，凭你的慈爱拯救我。
17 耶和华啊，求你叫我不致羞愧，因为我曾呼吁你。求你使恶人羞愧，使他们在阴间缄默无声。
18 那撒谎的人逞骄傲轻慢，出狂妄的话攻击义人，愿他的嘴哑而无言！
19 敬畏你、投靠你的人，你为他们所积存的，在世人面前所施行的恩惠是何等大呢！
20 你必把他们藏在你面前的隐密处，免得遇见人的计谋；你必暗暗地保守他们在亭子里，免受口舌的争闹。
21 耶和华是应当称颂的！因为他在坚固城里，向我施展奇妙的慈爱。
22 至于我，我曾急促地说“我从你眼前被隔绝”，然而我呼求你的时候，你仍听我恳求的声音。
23 耶和华的圣民哪，你们都要爱他！耶和华保护诚实人，足足报应行事骄傲的人。
24 凡仰望耶和华的人，你们都要壮胆，坚固你们的心！
Psalm 31
Contemporary English Version
(A psalm by David for the music leader.)
A Prayer for Protection
1 I come to you, Lord,
for protection.
Don't let me be ashamed.
Do as you have promised
and rescue me.
2 Listen to my prayer
and hurry to save me.
Be my mighty rock[a]
and the fortress
where I am safe.
3 You, Lord God,
are my mighty rock
and my fortress.
Lead me and guide me,
so that your name
will be honored.
4 Protect me from hidden traps
and keep me safe.
5 (A) You are faithful,
and I trust you
because you rescued me.
6 I hate the worshipers
of worthless idols,
but I trust you, Lord.
7 I celebrate and shout
because you are kind.
You saw all my suffering,
and you cared for me.
8 You kept me from the hands
of my enemies,
and you set me free.
9 Have pity, Lord!
I am hurting and almost blind.
My whole body aches.
10 I have known only sorrow
all my life long, and I suffer
year after year.
I am weak from sin,
and my bones are limp.
11 My enemies insult me.
Neighbors are even worse,
and I disgust my friends.
People meet me on the street,
and they turn and run.
12 I am completely forgotten
like someone dead.
I am merely a broken dish.
13 I hear the crowds whisper,
“Everyone is afraid!”
They are plotting and scheming
to murder me.
14 But I trust you, Lord,
and I claim you as my God.
15 My life is in your hands.
Save me from enemies
who hunt me down.
16 Smile on me, your servant.
Have pity and rescue me.
17 I pray only to you.
Don't disappoint me.
Disappoint my cruel enemies
until they lie silent
in their graves.
18 Silence those proud liars!
Make them stop bragging
and insulting your people.
19 You are wonderful,
and while everyone watches,
you store up blessings for all
who honor and trust you.
20 You are their shelter
from harmful plots,
and you are their protection
from vicious gossip.
21 I will praise you, Lord,
for showing great kindness
when I was like a city
under attack.
22 I was terrified and thought,
“They've chased me
far away from you!”
But you answered my prayer
when I shouted for help.
23 (B) All who belong to the Lord,
show how you love him.
The Lord protects the faithful,
but he severely punishes
everyone who is proud.
24 All who trust the Lord,
be cheerful and strong.

Psalm 31
King James Version
31 In thee, O Lord, do I put my trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness.
2 Bow down thine ear to me; deliver me speedily: be thou my strong rock, for an house of defence to save me.
3 For thou art my rock and my fortress; therefore for thy name's sake lead me, and guide me.
4 Pull me out of the net that they have laid privily for me: for thou art my strength.
5 Into thine hand I commit my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O Lord God of truth.
6 I have hated them that regard lying vanities: but I trust in the Lord.
7 I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy: for thou hast considered my trouble; thou hast known my soul in adversities;
8 And hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a large room.
9 Have mercy upon me, O Lord, for I am in trouble: mine eye is consumed with grief, yea, my soul and my belly.
10 For my life is spent with grief, and my years with sighing: my strength faileth because of mine iniquity, and my bones are consumed.
11 I was a reproach among all mine enemies, but especially among my neighbours, and a fear to mine acquaintance: they that did see me without fled from me.
12 I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel.
13 For I have heard the slander of many: fear was on every side: while they took counsel together against me, they devised to take away my life.
14 But I trusted in thee, O Lord: I said, Thou art my God.
15 My times are in thy hand: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me.
16 Make thy face to shine upon thy servant: save me for thy mercies' sake.
17 Let me not be ashamed, O Lord; for I have called upon thee: let the wicked be ashamed, and let them be silent in the grave.
18 Let the lying lips be put to silence; which speak grievous things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous.
19 Oh how great is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee; which thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee before the sons of men!
20 Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of man: thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues.
21 Blessed be the Lord: for he hath shewed me his marvellous kindness in a strong city.
22 For I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes: nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried unto thee.
23 O love the Lord, all ye his saints: for the Lord preserveth the faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer.
24 Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the Lord.
