诗篇 40
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
蒙主救拔脱离苦难
40 大卫的诗，交于伶长。
1 我曾耐性等候耶和华，他垂听我的呼求。
2 他从祸坑里，从淤泥中，把我拉上来，使我的脚立在磐石上，使我脚步稳当。
3 他使我口唱新歌，就是赞美我们神的话。许多人必看见而惧怕，并要倚靠耶和华。
4 那倚靠耶和华，不理会狂傲和偏向虚假之辈的，这人便为有福！
5 耶和华我的神啊，你所行的奇事，并你向我们所怀的意念甚多，不能向你陈明。若要陈明，其事不可胜数。
6 祭物和礼物你不喜悦，你已经开通我的耳朵，燔祭和赎罪祭非你所要。
7 那时我说：“看哪，我来了，我的事在经卷上已经记载了。
8 我的神啊，我乐意照你的旨意行，你的律法在我心里。”
9 我在大会中宣传公义的佳音，我必不止住我的嘴唇，耶和华啊，这是你所知道的。
10 我未曾把你的公义藏在心里，我已陈明你的信实和你的救恩，我在大会中未曾隐瞒你的慈爱和诚实。
11 耶和华啊，求你不要向我止住你的慈悲，愿你的慈爱和诚实常常保佑我。
12 因有无数的祸患围困我，我的罪孽追上了我，使我不能昂首。这罪孽比我的头发还多，我就心寒胆战。
13 耶和华啊，求你开恩搭救我！耶和华啊，求你速速帮助我！
14 愿那些寻找我要灭我命的一同抱愧蒙羞，愿那些喜悦我受害的退后受辱。
15 愿那些对我说“啊哈！啊哈！”的，因羞愧而败亡。
16 愿一切寻求你的因你高兴欢喜，愿那些喜爱你救恩的常说：“当尊耶和华为大！”
17 但我是困苦穷乏的，主仍顾念我。你是帮助我的，搭救我的，神啊，求你不要耽延！
Psalm 40
New Century Version
Praise and Prayer for Help
For the director of music. A psalm of David.
40 I waited patiently for the Lord.
He turned to me and heard my cry.
2 He lifted me out of the pit of destruction,
out of the sticky mud.
He stood me on a rock
and made my feet steady.
3 He put a new song in my mouth,
a song of praise to our God.
Many people will see this and worship him.
Then they will trust the Lord.
4 Happy is the person
who trusts the Lord,
who doesn’t turn to those who are proud
or to those who worship false gods.
5 Lord my God, you have done many miracles.
Your plans for us are many.
If I tried to tell them all,
there would be too many to count.
6 You do not want sacrifices and offerings.
But you have made a hole in my ear
to show that my body and life are yours.
You do not ask for burnt offerings
and sacrifices to take away sins.
7 Then I said, “Look, I have come.
It is written about me in the book.
8 My God, I want to do what you want.
Your teachings are in my heart.”
9 I will tell about your goodness in the great meeting of your people.
Lord, you know my lips are not silent.
10 I do not hide your goodness in my heart;
I speak about your loyalty and salvation.
I do not hide your love and truth
from the people in the great meeting.
11 Lord, do not hold back your mercy from me;
let your love and truth always protect me.
12 Troubles have surrounded me;
there are too many to count.
My sins have caught me
so that I cannot see a way to escape.
I have more sins than hairs on my head,
and I have lost my courage.
13 Please, Lord, save me.
Hurry, Lord, to help me.
14 People are trying to kill me.
Shame them and disgrace them.
People want to hurt me.
Let them run away in disgrace.
15 People are making fun of me.
Let them be shamed into silence.
16 But let those who follow you
be happy and glad.
They love you for saving them.
May they always say, “Praise the Lord!”
17 Lord, because I am poor and helpless,
please remember me.
You are my helper and savior.
My God, do not wait.
