诗篇 39
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
人生虚幻,主是唯一指望
大卫的诗,交给诗班长耶杜顿。
39 我曾说:“我要谨慎我的行为,
不让我的舌头犯罪;
恶人在我面前的时候,
我总要用罩子约束我的嘴。”
2 我静默不出声,
甚至连好话也不说(“甚至连好话也不说”或译:“我安静也得不到安慰”),
我的痛苦就更加剧烈。
3 我的心在我里面发热;
我默想的时候,心里火烧;
我就用舌头说话:
4 “耶和华啊!求你使我知道我的结局,
我的寿数有多少,
使我知道我的生命多么短促。
5 你使我的日子窄如手掌,
我的一生在你面前如同无有;
各人站得最稳的时候,也只不过是一口气。(细拉)
6 世人来来往往只是幻影,
他们忙乱也是虚空;
积聚财物,却不知道谁要来收取。
7 主啊!现在我还等候甚么呢?
我的指望在乎你。
8 求你救我脱离我的一切过犯,
不要使我遭受愚顽人的羞辱。
9 因为是你作了这事,
我就静默不开口。
10 求你除掉你降在我身上的灾祸;
因你手的责打,我就消灭。
11 你因人的罪孽,借着责罚管教他们,
叫他们所宝贵的消失,像被虫蛀蚀;
世人都不过是一口气。(细拉)
12 耶和华啊!求你垂听我的祷告,
留心听我的呼求;
我流泪,求你不要缄默;
因为我在你面前是客旅,
是寄居的,像我所有的祖先一样。
13 求你不要怒视我,
使我在去而不返之先,可以喜乐。”
Psalm 39
King James Version
39 I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me.
2 I was dumb with silence, I held my peace, even from good; and my sorrow was stirred.
3 My heart was hot within me, while I was musing the fire burned: then spake I with my tongue,
4 Lord, make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days, what it is: that I may know how frail I am.
5 Behold, thou hast made my days as an handbreadth; and mine age is as nothing before thee: verily every man at his best state is altogether vanity. Selah.
6 Surely every man walketh in a vain shew: surely they are disquieted in vain: he heapeth up riches, and knoweth not who shall gather them.
7 And now, Lord, what wait I for? my hope is in thee.
8 Deliver me from all my transgressions: make me not the reproach of the foolish.
9 I was dumb, I opened not my mouth; because thou didst it.
10 Remove thy stroke away from me: I am consumed by the blow of thine hand.
11 When thou with rebukes dost correct man for iniquity, thou makest his beauty to consume away like a moth: surely every man is vanity. Selah.
12 Hear my prayer, O Lord, and give ear unto my cry; hold not thy peace at my tears: for I am a stranger with thee, and a sojourner, as all my fathers were.
13 O spare me, that I may recover strength, before I go hence, and be no more.
Psalm 39
English Standard Version
What Is the Measure of My Days?
To the choirmaster: to (A)Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.
39 I said, “I will (B)guard my ways,
that I (C)may not sin with my tongue;
I will (D)guard my mouth with a muzzle,
so long as the wicked are in my presence.”
2 I was (E)mute and silent;
I held my peace to no avail,
and my distress grew worse.
3 My (F)heart became hot within me.
As I mused, the fire burned;
then I spoke with my tongue:
4 “O Lord, (G)make me know my end
and what is the measure of my days;
let me know how fleeting I am!
5 Behold, you have made my days a few handbreadths,
and (H)my lifetime is as nothing before you.
Surely (I)all mankind stands as a mere breath! Selah
6 Surely a man (J)goes about as a shadow!
Surely for nothing[a] they are in turmoil;
man (K)heaps up wealth and does not know who will gather!
7 “And now, O Lord, for what do I wait?
(L)My hope is in you.
8 Deliver me from all my transgressions.
(M)Do not make me the scorn of the fool!
9 (N)I am mute; I do not open my mouth,
(O)for it is you who have done it.
10 (P)Remove your stroke from me;
I am spent by the hostility of your hand.
11 When you discipline a man
with (Q)rebukes for sin,
you (R)consume like a (S)moth what is dear to him;
(T)surely all mankind is a mere breath! Selah
12 (U)“Hear my prayer, O Lord,
and give ear to my cry;
hold not your peace at my tears!
For I am (V)a sojourner with you,
(W)a guest, like all my fathers.
13 (X)Look away from me, that I may smile again,
(Y)before I depart and (Z)am no more!”
