诗篇 34
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
敬畏 神的必一无所缺
大卫的诗,是他在亚比米勒面前装疯,被驱逐离去时作的。
34 我要时常称颂耶和华,
赞美他的话必常在我口中。
2 我的心要因耶和华夸耀,
困苦的人听见了就喜乐。
3 你们要跟我一起尊耶和华为大,
我们来一同高举他的名。
4 我曾求问耶和华,他应允了我,
救我脱离一切恐惧。
5 人仰望他,就有光彩,
他们的脸必不蒙羞。
6 我这困苦人呼求,耶和华就垂听,
拯救我脱离一切患难。
7 耶和华的使者,在敬畏他的人周围扎营,
搭救他们。
8 你们要亲自体验,就知道耶和华是美善的;
投靠他的人,都是有福的。
9 耶和华的圣民哪!你们要敬畏他,
因为敬畏他的一无所缺。
10 少壮狮子有时还缺食挨饿,
但寻求耶和华的,甚么好处都不缺。
11 孩子们!你们要来听我;
我要教导你们敬畏耶和华。
12 谁喜爱生命,
爱慕长寿,享受美福,
13 就应谨守舌头,不出恶言,
嘴唇不说欺诈的话。
14 也要离恶行善,
寻找并追求和睦。
15 耶和华的眼睛看顾义人,
他的耳朵垂听他们的呼求。
16 耶和华的脸敌对作恶的人,
要把他们的名从世上除掉。
17 义人哀求,耶和华就垂听,
搭救他们脱离一切患难,
18 耶和华亲近心中破碎的人,
拯救灵里痛悔的人,
19 义人虽有许多苦难,
但耶和华搭救他脱离这一切。
20 耶和华保全他一身的骨头,
连一根也不容折断。
21 恶人必被恶害死;
憎恨义人的,必被定罪。
22 耶和华救赎他仆人的性命;
凡是投靠他的,必不被定罪。
Psalm 34
Expanded Bible
Praise God Who Judges and Saves
David’s song from the time he ·acted crazy [acted mad/insane; L changed his mind/discernment] so Abimelech [C perhaps another name for Achish] would ·send [drive] him away, and David did leave [1 Sam. 21:10–15].
34 I will ·praise [bless] the Lord at all times;
his praise is always ·on my lips [L in my mouth].
2 My ·whole being [soul] praises the Lord.
The ·poor [humble] will hear and be glad.
3 ·Glorify [Praise; Magnify] the Lord with me,
and let us ·praise [L extol] his name together.
4 I ·asked the Lord for help [sought the Lord], and he answered me.
He ·saved [rescued; T delivered] me from all that I feared.
5 Those who ·go [L look] to him for help are ·happy [radiant],
and ·they [L their faces] are never ·disgraced [shamed].
6 This ·poor [afflicted] man [C someone in the congregation or the psalmist himself] ·called [prayed], and the Lord heard him
and ·saved him from [gave him victory over] all his ·troubles [distress].
7 The angel of the Lord [91:11; Gen. 32:1–2; 2 Kin. 6:17; Matt. 4:5–6] camps around those who fear God [Prov. 1:7],
and he saves them.
8 ·Examine [L Taste] and see how good the Lord is.
·Happy [Blessed] is the person who ·trusts [finds refuge in] him.
9 You ·who belong to the Lord [holy ones], fear him [Prov. 1:7]!
Those who fear him will ·have everything they need [not lack anything; 23:1].
10 Even lions [C the most noble wild beast] may get weak and hungry,
but those who ·look to [seek] the Lord ·will have every [L do not lack any] good thing.
11 Children, come and listen to me.
I will teach you ·to worship [L the fear of] the Lord.
12 ·You must do these things
to enjoy life and have many happy days [L Who of you takes pleasure in life and loves days to experience good?].
13 You must ·not say evil things [L guard/keep your tongue from evil],
and ·you must not tell lies [L your lips from deception].
14 ·Stop doing [L Turn aside from] evil and do good.
·Look for [Seek] peace and ·work for [pursue] it.
15 ·The Lord sees the [L The eyes of the Lord are on] ·good [righteous] people
and ·listens to their prayers [L his ears attend to their cries for help].
16 But the ·Lord is [L face of the Lord is] against those who do evil;
he ·makes the world forget them [L cuts memory of them off the earth].
17 ·The Lord hears good people when they [L They] cry out to him,
and he saves them from all their ·troubles [distress].
18 The Lord is close to the brokenhearted,
and he saves those whose spirits have been crushed.
19 People who ·do what is right may [are righteous] have many ·problems [afflictions],
but the Lord ·will solve them [L saves them from them] all.
20 He will protect their very bones;
not one of them will be broken.
21 Evil will kill the wicked;
those who hate ·good [righteous] people will be judged guilty.
22 But the Lord ·saves [redeems; ransoms] his servants’ lives;
no one who ·trusts [finds refuge in] him will be judged guilty.
