在异域遭难时企望神

42 可拉后裔的训诲诗,交于伶长。

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?
我昼夜以眼泪当饮食,人不住地对我说:“你的神在哪里呢?”
我从前与众人同往,用欢呼称赞的声音,领他们到神的殿里,大家守节。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,因他笑脸帮助我,我还要称赞他。
我的神啊,我的心在我里面忧闷,所以我从约旦地,从黑门岭,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,耶和华必向我施慈爱;黑夜,我要歌颂、祷告赐我生命的神。
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,好像打碎我的骨头,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,因我还要称赞他,他是我脸上的光荣[a],是我的神。

  1. 诗篇 42:11 原文作:帮助。

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.
