第二卷(四十二至七十二篇)

可拉后裔的诗。交给圣咏团长。

流亡异乡者的祷告(一)

42  神啊,我的心切慕你,
    如鹿切慕溪水。
我的心渴想 神,就是永生 神,
    我几时得朝见 神呢?
我昼夜以眼泪当食物,
    人不住地对我说:“你的 神在哪里呢?”

我从前与众人同往,
    领他们到 神的殿里,
    大家用欢呼称颂的声音守节;
我追想这些事,
    我的心极其悲伤。
我的心哪,你为何忧闷?
    为何在我里面烦躁?
应当仰望 神,
    我还要称谢他,我当面的拯救,

我的 神。我的心在我里面忧闷[a]
    所以我从约旦地,
    黑门岭,从米萨山记念你。
你的瀑布发声,深渊就与深渊响应,
    你的波浪洪涛漫过我身。
白昼,耶和华必施慈爱;
    黑夜,我要歌颂祈祷赐我生命的 神。
我要对 神—我的磐石说:
    “你为何忘记我呢?
    我为何因仇敌的欺压时常哀痛呢?”
10 我的敌人辱骂我,
    好像敲碎我的骨头,
    他们不住地对我说:
    “你的 神在哪里呢?”

11 我的心哪,你为何忧闷?
    为何在我里面烦躁?
应当仰望 神,
    我还要称谢他,我当面的拯救,我的 神。

卷二:詩篇42—72

流落異鄉者的禱告

可拉後裔作的訓誨詩,交給樂長。

42 上帝啊,我的心切慕你,
像鹿切慕溪水。
我心裡渴慕上帝,
渴慕永活的上帝,
我何時才能去朝拜祂呢?
我不吃不喝,晝夜以淚洗面,
人們整天譏笑我:
「你的上帝在哪裡?」
從前我帶領眾人浩浩蕩蕩去上帝的殿,
在歡呼、感恩聲中一起過節。
我回想這些事,
心中無限憂傷。
我的心啊!
你為何沮喪?為何煩躁?
要仰望上帝,
因為我還要讚美祂——我的救主,我的上帝。

我的上帝啊,我心中沮喪,
便在約旦河、黑門山和米薩山想起你。
你的瀑布發出巨響,
迴盪在深淵之間,
你的洪濤巨浪淹沒我。
白天耶和華將祂的慈愛澆灌我;
夜間我歌頌祂,
向賜我生命的上帝禱告。
我對上帝——我的磐石說:
「你為何忘記我?
為何要我受仇敵的攻擊,使我哀傷不已呢?」
10 仇敵的辱罵刺骨鑽心。
他們整天對我說:
「你的上帝在哪裡?」
11 我的心啊!
你為何沮喪?為何煩躁?
要仰望上帝,
因為我還要讚美祂——我的救主,我的上帝。

42 As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God.

My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: when shall I come and appear before God?

My tears have been my meat day and night, while they continually say unto me, Where is thy God?

When I remember these things, I pour out my soul in me: for I had gone with the multitude, I went with them to the house of God, with the voice of joy and praise, with a multitude that kept holyday.

Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his countenance.

O my God, my soul is cast down within me: therefore will I remember thee from the land of Jordan, and of the Hermonites, from the hill Mizar.

Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterspouts: all thy waves and thy billows are gone over me.

Yet the Lord will command his lovingkindness in the day time, and in the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto the God of my life.

I will say unto God my rock, Why hast thou forgotten me? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

10 As with a sword in my bones, mine enemies reproach me; while they say daily unto me, Where is thy God?

11 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.

BOOK TWO

Psalms 42–72

Yearning for God in the Midst of Distresses

To the Chief Musician. A [a]Contemplation of the sons of Korah.

42 As the deer [b]pants for the water brooks,
So pants my soul for You, O God.
(A)My soul thirsts for God, for the (B)living God.
When shall I come and [c]appear before God?
(C)My tears have been my food day and night,
While they continually say to me,
(D)“Where is your God?”

When I remember these things,
(E)I pour out my soul within me.
For I used to go with the multitude;
(F)I went with them to the house of God,
With the voice of joy and praise,
With a multitude that kept a pilgrim feast.

(G)Why are you [d]cast down, O my soul?
And why are you disquieted within me?
(H)Hope in God, for I shall yet praise Him
[e]For the help of His countenance.

[f]O my God, my soul is cast down within me;
Therefore I will remember You from the land of the Jordan,
And from the heights of Hermon,
From [g]the Hill Mizar.
Deep calls unto deep at the noise of Your waterfalls;
(I)All Your waves and billows have gone over me.
The Lord will (J)command His lovingkindness in the daytime,
And (K)in the night His song shall be with me—
A prayer to the God of my life.

I will say to God my Rock,
(L)“Why have You forgotten me?
Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?”
10 As with a [h]breaking of my bones,
My enemies [i]reproach me,
(M)While they say to me all day long,
“Where is your God?”

11 (N)Why are you cast down, O my soul?
And why are you disquieted within me?
Hope in God;
For I shall yet praise Him,
The [j]help of my countenance and my God.
