诗篇 39
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
人生虛幻,主是唯一指望
大衛的詩,交給詩班長耶杜頓。
39 我曾說:“我要謹慎我的行為,
不讓我的舌頭犯罪;
惡人在我面前的時候,
我總要用罩子約束我的嘴。”
2 我靜默不出聲,
甚至連好話也不說(“甚至連好話也不說”或譯:“我安靜也得不到安慰”),
我的痛苦就更加劇烈。
3 我的心在我裡面發熱;
我默想的時候,心裡火燒;
我就用舌頭說話:
4 “耶和華啊!求你使我知道我的結局,
我的壽數有多少,
使我知道我的生命多麼短促。
5 你使我的日子窄如手掌,
我的一生在你面前如同無有;
各人站得最穩的時候,也只不過是一口氣。(細拉)
6 世人來來往往只是幻影,
他們忙亂也是虛空;
積聚財物,卻不知道誰要來收取。
7 主啊!現在我還等候甚麼呢?
我的指望在乎你。
8 求你救我脫離我的一切過犯,
不要使我遭受愚頑人的羞辱。
9 因為是你作了這事,
我就靜默不開口。
10 求你除掉你降在我身上的災禍;
因你手的責打,我就消滅。
11 你因人的罪孽,藉著責罰管教他們,
叫他們所寶貴的消失,像被蟲蛀蝕;
世人都不過是一口氣。(細拉)
12 耶和華啊!求你垂聽我的禱告,
留心聽我的呼求;
我流淚,求你不要緘默;
因為我在你面前是客旅,
是寄居的,像我所有的祖先一樣。
13 求你不要怒視我,
使我在去而不返之先,可以喜樂。”
Psalm 39
New International Version
Psalm 39[a]
For the director of music. For Jeduthun. A psalm of David.
1 I said, “I will watch my ways(A)
and keep my tongue from sin;(B)
I will put a muzzle on my mouth(C)
while in the presence of the wicked.”
2 So I remained utterly silent,(D)
not even saying anything good.
But my anguish(E) increased;
3 my heart grew hot(F) within me.
While I meditated,(G) the fire(H) burned;
then I spoke with my tongue:
4 “Show me, Lord, my life’s end
and the number of my days;(I)
let me know how fleeting(J) my life is.(K)
5 You have made my days(L) a mere handbreadth;
the span of my years is as nothing before you.
Everyone is but a breath,(M)
even those who seem secure.[b]
6 “Surely everyone goes around(N) like a mere phantom;(O)
in vain they rush about,(P) heaping up wealth(Q)
without knowing whose it will finally be.(R)
7 “But now, Lord, what do I look for?
My hope is in you.(S)
8 Save me(T) from all my transgressions;(U)
do not make me the scorn(V) of fools.
9 I was silent;(W) I would not open my mouth,(X)
for you are the one who has done this.(Y)
10 Remove your scourge from me;
I am overcome by the blow(Z) of your hand.(AA)
11 When you rebuke(AB) and discipline(AC) anyone for their sin,
you consume(AD) their wealth like a moth(AE)—
surely everyone is but a breath.(AF)
