诗篇 5
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
呼求 神保護
大衛的詩，交給詩班長，用管樂伴奏。
5 耶和華啊！求你留心聽我的話，
顧念我的歎息。
2 我的王，我的 神啊！
求你傾聽我呼求的聲音，
因為我向你禱告。
3 耶和華啊！求你在清晨聽我的聲音；
我要一早向你陳明，
並且迫切等候。
4 因為你是不喜愛邪惡的 神，
惡人不能與你同住。
5 狂傲的人不能在你眼前站立，
你恨惡所有作惡的人。
6 你必滅絕說謊話的；
好流人血和弄詭詐的，
都是耶和華所憎惡的。
7 至於我，我必憑著你豐盛的慈愛，
進入你的殿；
我要存著敬畏你的心，
向你的聖所敬拜。
8 耶和華啊！求你因我仇敵的緣故，
按著你的公義引導我，
在我面前鋪平你的道路。
9 因為他們的口裡沒有真話，
他們的內心充滿毀滅人的意圖，
他們的喉嚨是敞開的墳墓，
他們用舌頭弄詭詐。
10 神啊！求你定他們的罪；
願他們因自己的詭計跌倒，
願你因他們許多的過犯，把他們趕出去，
因為他們背叛了你。
11 願所有投靠你的人都喜樂，
常常歡呼；
願你保護他們，
又願愛你名的人，因你歡樂。
12 耶和華啊！因為你必賜福給義人，
你要以恩惠像盾牌四面護衛他。
Psalm 5
EasyEnglish Bible
Tell the music leader to use flutes.
This is a song that David wrote.
Pray about your enemies[a]
5 Lord, listen to what I say to you.
I am upset, so think about what I am saying.
2 My King and my God, listen to my voice.
I am asking you to help me.
I am praying to you!
3 Lord, every morning you listen to my voice.
At sunrise I will turn to you for help,
and I will wait for you to answer.[b]
4 My God, you do not like anything that is bad.
Evil people cannot live near you.
5 Proud people cannot stand in front of you.
God, you hate everyone who does evil things.
6 You destroy those who tell lies.
The Lord hates murderers,
and those who deceive others.[c]
7 But I will come into your house,
because of your faithful love.
I will bend low in your holy temple,
and I will worship you.
8 Lord, help me to follow your right way.
My enemies are waiting to attack me.
Show the right way clearly to me,
so that I do not go the wrong way.
9 My enemies never speak what is true.
They only want to destroy people.
Their mouth has the smell of an open grave.[d]
Their tongues say nice things,
but they are all lies!
10 God, say that they are guilty!
Let their own wicked ideas bring punishment to them.
Send them away because they do so many bad things.
Yes, they have turned against you.
11 Please make people who turn to you happy.
Make them always sing with joy,
because you keep them safe.
Take care of those who are faithful to you.
Then they will be really happy.
12 Lord, you bless those who live in a right way.
Your love is like a shield that keeps them safe.
