诗篇 56
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)

信靠上帝的祷告

大卫作的诗，交给乐长，调用“远方无声鸽”，大卫在迦特被非利士人抓住时所作。

56 上帝啊，求你怜悯我，
因为仇敌攻击我，整日迫害我。
2 我的仇敌整日攻击我，
许多人狂妄地迫害我。
3 我害怕的时候，
仍要倚靠你。
4 我赞美上帝的应许，
我信靠祂，就不惧怕，
区区世人能把我怎样？
5 他们整天歪曲我的话，
总是图谋害我。
6 他们勾结起来，
暗中监视我的行踪，
伺机害我。
7 上帝啊，
不要让这些作恶的人逃脱，
求你在怒中毁灭他们。
8 你知道我的哀伤，
你把我的眼泪收在袋中。
我的遭遇都记录在你的册子上。
9 我向你求救的时候，
敌人都落荒而逃。
我知道上帝是我的帮助。
10 我因上帝的应许而赞美祂，
我因耶和华的应许而赞美祂。
11 我信靠上帝，就不惧怕，
区区世人能把我怎样？
12 上帝啊，
我要恪守向你发的誓言，
献上感恩祭。
13 因为你救我脱离死亡，
使我没有跌倒，
让我可以活在你面前，
沐浴生命之光。

Psalm 56
Lexham English Bible

Prayer for Deliverance and Confidence in God

For the music director, according to The Silent Dove of Distant Lands.

Of David. A miktam.

When the Philistines seized him in Gath.[a]

56 Be gracious to me, O God, because humankind has trampled me;
fighting all the day he oppresses me.
2 My enemies[b] trample all day,
because many are attacking me proudly.
3 When[c] I fear, I trust you.
4 God, whose word I praise,
God I trust; I do not fear.
What can mere flesh do to me?
5 All day they twist my words;
all their thoughts are against me for evil.
6 They attack,[d] they hide, they watch my steps,[e]
as they lie in wait for my life.
7 Because of iniquity will they escape?
In anger cast down the peoples, O God.
8 You have kept count of my wonderings.
Put my tears in your bottle;
are they not in your book?
9 Then my enemies will turn back when[f] I call.[g]
This I know because[h] God is for me.
10 God, whose word I praise,
Yahweh, whose word I praise,
11 God I trust; I do not fear.
What can mere humankind do to me?
12 My vows to you, O God, are binding upon me.
I will pay thank offerings to you,
13 because you have delivered my soul from death.
Have you not kept my feet from stumbling,
that I may walk before God
in the light of the living?

Psalm 56
King James Version

56 Be merciful unto me, O God: for man would swallow me up; he fighting daily oppresseth me.

2 Mine enemies would daily swallow me up: for they be many that fight against me, O thou most High.

3 What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.

4 In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me.

5 Every day they wrest my words: all their thoughts are against me for evil.

6 They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my steps, when they wait for my soul.

7 Shall they escape by iniquity? in thine anger cast down the people, O God.

8 Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: are they not in thy book?

9 When I cry unto thee, then shall mine enemies turn back: this I know; for God is for me.

10 In God will I praise his word: in the Lord will I praise his word.

11 In God have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do unto me.

12 Thy vows are upon me, O God: I will render praises unto thee.

13 For thou hast delivered my soul from death: wilt not thou deliver my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living?
