诗篇 56

Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)

哀诉仇敌之虐害

56 非利士人在迦特拿住大卫。那时，他作这金诗，交于伶长。调用远方无声鸽。

¹神啊，求你怜悯我，因为人要把我吞了，终日攻击欺压我。
²我的仇敌终日要把我吞了，因逞骄傲攻击我的人甚多。
³我惧怕的时候要倚靠你。
⁴我倚靠神，我要赞美他的话。我倚靠神，必不惧怕，血气之辈能把我怎么样呢？
⁵他们终日颠倒我的话，他们一切的心思都是要害我。
⁶他们聚集、埋伏，窥探我的脚踪，等候要害我的命。
⁷他们岂能因罪孽逃脱吗？神啊，求你在怒中使众民堕落！
⁸我几次流离，你都记数，求你把我眼泪装在你的皮袋里。这不都记在你册子上吗？
⁹我呼求的日子，我的仇敌都要转身退后。神帮助我，这是我所知道的。

颂感神之救恩

¹⁰我倚靠神，我要赞美他的话！我倚靠耶和华，我要赞美他的话！

¹¹我倚靠神，必不惧怕，人能把我怎么样呢？
¹²神啊，我向你所许的愿在我身上，我要将感谢祭献给你。
¹³因为你救我的命脱离死亡，你岂不是救护我的脚不跌倒，使我在生命光中行在神面前吗？

Psalm 56

New American Bible (Revised Edition)

Psalm 56^[a]

Trust in God

¹For the director. According to Yonath elem rehoqim.^[b] A miktam of David, when the Philistines seized him at Gath.^(A)

I

²Have mercy on me, God,
    for I am treated harshly;
    attackers press me all the day.
³My foes treat me harshly all the day;
    yes, many are my attackers.
O Most High, ⁴when I am afraid,
    in you I place my trust.
⁵I praise the word of God;
    I trust in God, I do not fear.^(B)
    What can mere flesh do to me?^(C)

II

⁶All the day they foil my plans;
    their every thought is of evil against me.
⁷They hide together in ambush;
    they watch my every step;
    they lie in wait for my life.^(D)
⁸They are evil; watch them, God!
    Cast the nations down in your anger!
⁹My wanderings you have noted;
    are my tears not stored in your flask,^[c]
    recorded in your book?^(E)
¹⁰My foes turn back when I call on you.
    This I know: God is on my side.
¹¹I praise the word of God,
    I praise the word of the Lord.
¹²In God I trust, I do not fear.
    What can man do to me?

III

¹³I have made vows to you, God;
    with offerings I will fulfill them,^(F)
¹⁴For you have snatched me from death,
    kept my feet from stumbling,
That I may walk before God
    in the light of the living.

Footnotes

Psalm 56 Beset physically (Ps 56:2–3) and psychologically (Ps 56:6–7), the psalmist maintains a firm confidence in God (Ps 56:5, 9–10). Nothing will prevent the psalmist from keeping the vow to give thanks for God’s gift of life (Ps 56:13). A refrain (Ps 56:5, 11–12) divides the Psalm in two equal parts.
56:1 Yonath elem rehoqim: Hebrew words probably designating the melody to which the Psalm was to be sung.
56:9 Are my tears not stored in your flask: a unique saying in the Old Testament. The context suggests that the tears are saved because they are precious; God puts a high value on each of the psalmist’s troubles.
