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。

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.
