詩篇 5
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
求上帝保護
大衛的詩，交給樂長，管樂器伴奏。
5 耶和華啊，求你聽我的禱告，
顧念我的哀歎。
2 我的王，我的上帝啊！
求你垂聽我的呼求，
因為我只向你祈禱。
3 耶和華啊！早晨你聽我的禱告。
早晨我到你面前祈求，
切切等候。
4 你是厭惡邪惡的上帝，
惡人在你面前無立足之地。
5 狂妄之人不能站在你面前，
你憎惡一切作惡之人。
6 說謊的，你毀滅；
兇殘詭詐的，你痛恨。
7 因為你有無限的慈愛，
我要進入你的居所，
我要滿懷敬畏地向你的聖殿下拜。
8 耶和華啊，我的仇敵眾多，
求你以公義引領我，
使我走你安排的正路。
9 他們口中毫無實話，
心裡充滿惡毒，
喉嚨是敞開的墳墓，
舌頭上盡是詭詐。
10 上帝啊，
求你定他們的罪，
讓他們作繭自縛。
他們背叛你，罪惡深重，
求你把他們趕走。
11 願投靠你的人歡歌不斷。
求你庇護他們，
讓愛你的人因你而喜樂。
12 耶和華啊，你必賜福給義人，
你的恩惠像盾牌四面保護他們。
Psalm 5
Contemporary English Version
(A psalm by David for the music leader. Use flutes.)
A Prayer for Help
1 Listen, Lord, as I pray!
Pay attention when I groan.[a]
2 You are my King and my God.
Answer my cry for help
because I pray to you.
3 Each morning you listen
to my prayer,
as I bring my requests[b] to you
and wait for your reply.
4 You are not the kind of God
who is pleased with evil.
Sinners can't stay with you.
5 No one who boasts can stand
in your presence, Lord,
and you hate evil people.
6 You destroy every liar,
and you despise violence
and deceit.
7 Because of your great mercy,
I come to your house, Lord,
and I am filled with wonder
as I bow down to worship
at your holy temple.
8 You do what is right,
and I ask you to guide me.
Make your teaching clear
because of my enemies.
9 (A) Nothing they say is true!
They just want to destroy.
Their words are deceitful
like a hidden pit,
and their tongues are good
only for telling lies.
10 Punish them, God,
and let their own plans
bring their downfall.
Get rid of them!
They keep committing crimes
and turning against you.
11 Let all who run to you
for protection
always sing joyful songs.
Provide shelter for those
who truly love you
and let them rejoice.
12 Our Lord, you bless those
who live right,
and you shield them
with your kindness.
