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。”

13 求你寬恕我,
好讓我在離世之前能重展笑容。」
Psalm 39

The Confession of a Sufferer[a]
39 I said, “I will be careful about what I do
    and will not let my tongue make me sin;
I will not say anything
    while evil people are near.”
2 I kept quiet, not saying a word,
    not even about anything good!
But my suffering only grew worse,
3     and I was overcome with anxiety.
The more I thought, the more troubled I became;
    I could not keep from asking:
4 “Lord, how long will I live?
    When will I die?
    Tell me how soon my life will end.”
5 How short you have made my life!
    In your sight my lifetime seems nothing.
Indeed every living being is no more than a puff of wind,
6     no more than a shadow.
All we do is for nothing;
    we gather wealth, but don't know who will get it.
7 What, then, can I hope for, Lord?
    I put my hope in you.
8 Save me from all my sins,
    and don't let fools make fun of me.
9 I will keep quiet, I will not say a word,
    for you are the one who made me suffer like this.
10 Don't punish me any more!
    I am about to die from your blows.
11 You punish our sins by your rebukes,
    and like a moth you destroy what we love.
Indeed we are no more than a puff of wind!
12 Hear my prayer, Lord,
    and listen to my cry;
    come to my aid when I weep.
Like all my ancestors
    I am only your guest for a little while.
13 Leave me alone so that I may have some happiness
    before I go away and am no more.
