陷害人的必遭 神報應

大衛的訓誨詩,交給詩班長,是在以東人多益來告訴掃羅:“大衛到了亞希米勒家”以後作的。(本篇細字標題在《馬索拉文本》為52:1~2)

52 勇士啊!你為甚麼以作惡自誇呢?

 神的慈愛是常存的。

你圖謀毀滅,

你的舌頭鋒利像剃刀,

常弄詭詐。

你喜愛作惡過於行善,

喜愛撒謊過於說實話。(細拉)

你喜愛你詭詐的舌頭,

所說一切毀滅人的話。

 神必把你永遠拆毀;

他必把你挪去,把你從帳棚中揪出來,

把你從活人之地連根拔起。(細拉)

義人必看見而懼怕;

他們必譏笑他,說:

“看哪!這就是那不以 神為自己保障的人,

他只倚靠自己豐盛的財富,

以毀滅別人來加強自己的力量。”

至於我,我就像神殿中茂盛的橄欖樹一樣;

我倚靠 神的慈愛,直到永永遠遠。

我要永遠稱謝你,因為你行了這事;

我必在你聖民的面前,宣揚(“宣揚”原文作“仰望”)你的名,

因你的名是美好的。

Psalm 52

For the choir director: A psalm[a] of David, regarding the time Doeg the Edomite said to Saul, “David has gone to see Ahimelech.”

Why do you boast about your crimes, great warrior?
    Don’t you realize God’s justice continues forever?
All day long you plot destruction.
    Your tongue cuts like a sharp razor;
    you’re an expert at telling lies.
You love evil more than good
    and lies more than truth. Interlude

You love to destroy others with your words,
    you liar!
But God will strike you down once and for all.
    He will pull you from your home
    and uproot you from the land of the living. Interlude

The righteous will see it and be amazed.
    They will laugh and say,
“Look what happens to mighty warriors
    who do not trust in God.
They trust their wealth instead
    and grow more and more bold in their wickedness.”

But I am like an olive tree, thriving in the house of God.
    I will always trust in God’s unfailing love.
I will praise you forever, O God,
    for what you have done.
I will trust in your good name
    in the presence of your faithful people.
