诗篇 38
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
在痛苦中認罪祈求
大衛的記念詩。
38 耶和華啊！求你不要在忿怒中責備我，
也不要在烈怒中管教我。
2 因為你的箭射入我身，
你的手壓住我。
3 因你的忿怒，我體無完膚；
因我的罪惡，我的骨頭都不安妥。
4 我的罪孽高過我的頭，
如同重擔，使我擔當不起。
5 因為我的愚昧，
我的傷口發臭流膿。
6 我屈身彎腰，彎到極低，
整天哀痛，到處行走。
7 我的兩腰灼痛，
我體無完膚。
8 我已經疲乏無力，被壓得粉碎了；
我因心裡痛苦而唉哼。
9 主啊！我的心願都在你面前，
我不向你隱瞞我的歎息。
10 我的心劇烈跳動，我的力量衰退；
連我眼中的光彩也消逝了。
11 我的良朋密友因我的災禍，都站到一旁去；
我的親人也都站得遠遠的。
12 那些尋索我命的，設下網羅；
那些想要害我的，口說威嚇的話，
他們整天思想詭計。
13 至於我，像個聾子，不能聽見；
像個啞巴，不能開口。
14 我竟變成了一個像是不能聽見的人，
變成了一個口中不能反駁的人。
15 耶和華啊！我等候你；
主我的 神啊！你必應允我。
16 因為我曾說：“恐怕他們向我誇耀；
我的腳滑跌的時候，不要讓他們向我誇口。”
17 我隨時會跌倒，
我的痛苦常在我面前。
18 我要承認我的罪孽，
我要因我的罪憂傷。
19 但我強悍的仇敵眾多，
無理憎恨我的不斷增加。
20 那些以惡報善的都與我作對，
因為我追求良善。
21 耶和華啊！求你不要離棄我；
我的 神啊，求你不要遠離我。
22 拯救我的主啊！
求你快來幫助我。
Psalm 38
English Standard Version
Do Not Forsake Me, O Lord
A Psalm of David, (A)for the memorial offering.
38 O Lord, (B)rebuke me not in your anger,
nor discipline me in your wrath!
2 For your (C)arrows have sunk into me,
and your hand (D)has come down on me.
3 There is (E)no soundness in my flesh
because of your indignation;
there is no health in my (F)bones
because of my sin.
4 For my (G)iniquities have gone over my head;
like a heavy burden, they are too heavy for me.
5 My wounds stink and fester
because of my foolishness,
6 I am (H)utterly bowed down and (I)prostrate;
all the day I (J)go about mourning.
7 For my sides are filled with burning,
and there is (K)no soundness in my flesh.
8 I am feeble and crushed;
I (L)groan because of the tumult of my heart.
9 O Lord, all my longing is before you;
my (M)sighing is not hidden from you.
10 My heart throbs; my strength fails me,
and (N)the light of my eyes—it also has gone from me.
11 My (O)friends and companions (P)stand aloof from my (Q)plague,
and my nearest kin (R)stand far off.
12 Those who seek my life (S)lay their snares;
those who seek my hurt (T)speak of ruin
and meditate (U)treachery all day long.
13 But I am like a deaf man; I do not hear,
like (V)a mute man who does not open his mouth.
14 I have become like a man who does not hear,
and in whose mouth are no (W)rebukes.
15 But for (X)you, O Lord, do I wait;
it is you, O Lord my God, who will answer.
16 For I said, “Only (Y)let them not rejoice over me,
who (Z)boast against me when my (AA)foot slips!”
Psalm 38
New King James Version
Prayer in Time of Chastening
A Psalm of David. (A)To bring to remembrance.
38 O Lord, do not (B)rebuke me in Your wrath,
Nor chasten me in Your hot displeasure!
2 For Your arrows pierce me deeply,
And Your hand presses me down.
3 There is no soundness in my flesh
Because of Your anger,
Nor any health in my bones
Because of my sin.
4 For my iniquities have gone over my head;
Like a heavy burden they are too heavy for me.
5 My wounds are foul and festering
Because of my foolishness.
6 I am [a]troubled, I am bowed down greatly;
I go mourning all the day long.
7 For my loins are full of inflammation,
And there is no soundness in my flesh.
8 I am feeble and severely broken;
I groan because of the turmoil of my heart.
9 Lord, all my desire is before You;
And my sighing is not hidden from You.
10 My heart pants, my strength fails me;
As for the light of my eyes, it also has gone from me.
11 My loved ones and my friends (C)stand aloof from my plague,
And my relatives stand afar off.
12 Those also who seek my life lay snares for me;
Those who seek my hurt speak of destruction,
And plan deception all the day long.
13 But I, like a deaf man, do not hear;
And I am like a mute who does not open his mouth.
14 Thus I am like a man who does not hear,
And in whose mouth is no response.
15 For [b]in You, O Lord, (D)I hope;
You will [c]hear, O Lord my God.
16 For I said, “Hear me, lest they rejoice over me,
Lest, when my foot slips, they exalt themselves against me.”
17 (E)For I am ready to fall,
And my sorrow is continually before me.
18 For I will (F)declare my iniquity;
I will be (G)in [d]anguish over my sin.
19 But my enemies are vigorous, and they are strong;
And those who hate me wrongfully have multiplied.
20 Those also (H)who render evil for good,
They are my adversaries, because I follow what is good.
21 Do not forsake me, O Lord;
O my God, (I)be not far from me!
22 Make haste to help me,
O Lord, my salvation!
