诗篇 38
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
受苦者的祈求
大卫求上帝眷顾的诗。
38 耶和华啊,
求你不要在发怒时惩罚我,
不要在烈怒下管教我。
2 因为你的箭射穿我,
你的手击打我。
3 你的怒气使我浑身是病,
我的罪恶使我骨头朽烂。
4 我的罪恶滔天,使我不堪其重。
5 我因愚昧而伤口溃烂流脓。
6 我疼得弯腰驼背,
终日哀伤。
7 我的腰灼痛难忍,
我浑身是病。
8 我精疲力尽,彻底崩溃;
我心中悲伤,呻吟不止。
9 主啊,你知道我的渴望,
听见了我的叹息。
10 我的心砰砰直跳,
气力衰竭,
眼睛黯淡无光。
11 因我的疾病,朋友同伴回避我,
亲人远离我。
12 谋害我的人设下陷阱,
想害我的人威胁我,
整天图谋奸计。
13 但我像听不见的聋子,
无法说话的哑巴。
14 我就像一个不能听、不能辩的人。
15 耶和华啊,我等候你;
主,我的上帝啊,你必应允我。
16 我曾求告你,
别让他们幸灾乐祸,
在我失脚时沾沾自喜。
17 我快要跌倒,
我的痛苦无休无止。
18 我要承认我的罪过,
罪恶使我心里惴惴不安。
19 我的仇敌势力强大,
无故恨我的人不计其数。
20 我追求良善,
他们就恨我,以恶报善。
21 耶和华啊,求你不要撇弃我!
我的上帝啊,求你不要远离我!
22 拯救我的主啊,
求你快来帮助我!
Psalm 38

Psalm 38
Do Not Rebuke Me in Your Anger
Heading
A psalm by David. To bring to remembrance.
Opening Plea
1 Lord, do not rebuke me in anger.
Do not discipline me in wrath.
The Greatness of David’s Burden
2 Indeed, your arrows have stuck in me.
Your hand has come down on me.
3 There is no health in my flesh because of your rage.
There is no wellness in my bones because of my sin,
4 because my guilt has gone over my head.
Like a heavy burden, it is too heavy for me.
5 My wounds stink and ooze because of my folly.
6 I am drooping. I am completely bent over.
All day long I go around mourning.
7 Even my back burns with pain.[a]
My whole body[b] is unhealthy.
8 I have become numb. I am totally crushed.
I groan loudly because of my anxious thoughts.
9 Lord, all my needs lie before you.
My sighs are not hidden from you.
10 My heart beats quickly. My strength leaves me.
Even the light of my eyes is gone from me.
11 My loved ones and my friends stand far away
because of the blow I have suffered.
My neighbors stand at a distance.
12 Those who pursue my life set traps.
Those who seek to harm me talk about my ruin.
All day long they plot deception.
13 I am deaf. I cannot hear.
Like a mute person, I cannot open my mouth.
14 I am like a man who cannot hear.
No response comes from his mouth.
David’s Confidence of Delivery
15 Yet I wait for you, Lord.
You will answer, O Lord my God.
16 So I said, “Do not let them celebrate because of me.
Do not let them gloat when my foot slips.”
17 Look! I am about to fall,
and I am always in pain,
18 so I declare my guilt,
and I am troubled by my sin.
19 My aggressive enemies are numerous.
Those who hate me for no reason are many.
20 Those who repay evil for good
slander me because I pursue what is good.
Closing Plea
21 Do not forsake me, O Lord.
My God, do not be far from me.
22 Hurry to help me, O Lord, my salvation.
