在困乏中對 神的渴慕

大衛的詩,是他在猶大曠野時作的。

63  神啊!你是我的 神,我要切切尋求你;

在乾旱、疲乏、無水之地,

我的心,我的身,

都渴想你,切慕你。

因此,我在聖所中瞻仰你,

為要見你的能力和榮耀。

因你的慈愛比生命更好,

我的嘴唇要頌讚你。

我要一生稱頌你,

我要奉你的名舉手禱告。

我的心滿足,就像飽享了骨髓肥油;

我要用歡樂的嘴唇讚美你。

我在床上記念你,

我整夜默想你。

因為你幫助了我,

我要在你翅膀的蔭下歡呼。

我心緊緊追隨你;

你的右手扶持我。

但那些尋索我、要殺我的人,

必下到地的深處。

10 他們必交在刀劍之下,

成了野狗的食物。

11 但王必因 神歡喜;

所有指著 神起誓的,都必可以誇耀;

說謊的人的口卻必被塞住。

Psalm 63

A psalm of David, when he was in the Judean desert.

63 God! My God! It’s you—
    I search for you!
    My whole being[a] thirsts for you!
    My body desires you
        in a dry and tired land,
        no water anywhere.
Yes, I’ve seen you in the sanctuary;
    I’ve seen your power and glory.
My lips praise you
    because your faithful love
    is better than life itself!
So I will bless you as long as I’m alive;
    I will lift up my hands in your name.

I’m fully satisfied—
    as with a rich dinner.
My mouth speaks praise with joy on my lips—
    whenever I ponder you on my bed,
    whenever I meditate on you
        in the middle of the night—
    because you’ve been a help to me and I shout for joy in the protection of your wings.
My whole being clings to you;
    your strong hand upholds me.

But what about those people who want to destroy me?
    Let them go into the bowels of the earth!
10     Let their blood flow by the sword!
    Let them be food for wild jackals!
11 But the king should rejoice in God;
    everyone who swears by God should give praise
        when the mouths of liars are shut for good.
