诗篇 39
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
受苦者的呼求
大卫的诗，交给乐长耶杜顿。
39 我说：“我要谨言慎行，
免犯口舌之罪。
只要身边有恶人，
我就用嚼环勒住自己的口。”
2 然而，我默不作声，
连好话也不出口时，
内心就更加痛苦。
3 我心如火烧，越沉思越烦躁，
便开口呼求：
4 “耶和华啊，求你让我知道我人生的终点和寿数，
明白人生何其短暂。
5 你使我的生命转瞬即逝，
我的岁月在你眼中不到片刻。
人的生命不过是一丝气息，（细拉）
6 人生不过是幻影，
劳碌奔波却一场空，
积蓄财富却不知谁来享用。
7 主啊，如今我盼望什么呢？
你是我的盼望。
8 求你救我脱离一切过犯，
不要让愚昧人嘲笑我。
9 我默然不语，一言不发，
因为我受的责罚是出于你。
10 求你不要再惩罚我，
你的责打使我几乎丧命。
11 因为人犯罪，你管教他们，
使他们所爱的被吞噬，像被虫蛀。
世人不过是一丝气息。（细拉）
12 “耶和华啊，
求你垂听我的祷告，
倾听我的呼求，
别对我的眼泪视若无睹。
因为我在你面前只是客旅，
是寄居的，
正如我的祖先。
13 求你宽恕我，
好让我在离世之前能重展笑容。”
Psalm 39
New American Standard Bible
The Futility of Life.
For the music director, for [a]Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.
39 I said, “I will (A)keep watch over my ways
So that I (B)do not sin with my tongue;
I will keep watch over (C)my mouth as with a muzzle
While the wicked are in my presence.”
2 I was (D)mute [b]and silent,
I [c]refused to say even something good,
And my pain was stirred up.
3 My (E)heart was hot within me,
While I was musing the fire burned;
Then I spoke with my tongue:
4 “Lord, let me know (F)my end,
And what is the extent of my days;
Let me know how (G)transient I am.
5 Behold, You have made (H)my days like [d]hand widths,
And my (I)lifetime as nothing in Your sight;
Certainly all mankind standing is [e]a mere (J)breath. Selah
6 Certainly every person (K)walks around as [f]a fleeting shadow;
They certainly make an (L)uproar for nothing;
He (M)amasses riches and does not know who will gather them.
7 “And now, Lord, for what do I wait?
My (N)hope is in You.
8 (O)Save me from all my wrongdoings;
Do not make me an object of (P)reproach for the foolish.
9 I have become (Q)mute, I do not open my mouth,
Because it is (R)You who have done it.
10 (S)Remove Your plague from me;
Because of (T)the opposition of Your hand I am [g]perishing.
11 With (U)rebukes You punish a person for wrongdoing;
You (V)consume like a moth what is precious to him;
Certainly (W)all mankind is mere breath! Selah
12 “(X)Hear my prayer, Lord, and listen to my cry for help;
Do not be silent (Y)to my tears;
For I am (Z)a stranger with You,
(AA)One who lives abroad, like all my fathers.
13 (AB)Turn Your eyes away from me, that I may become cheerful again
Before I depart and am no more.”
