诗篇 64
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
祈求上帝的保护
大卫作的诗,交给乐长。
64 上帝啊,求你倾听我的苦诉,
求你保护我的性命不受仇敌的威胁。
2 求你保护我免遭恶人的谋害,
使我脱离不法之徒。
3 他们舌头锋利如刀,
言语恶毒如箭穿心。
4 他们埋伏起来,
暗箭伤害纯全无过的人。
他们突然袭击,毫无顾忌。
5 他们狼狈为奸,
商量暗设网罗,
以为谁也看不见。
6 他们图谋不义之事,
认为策划得无懈可击。
人心真是狡猾。
7 但上帝必用箭射他们,
将他们突然射倒在地。
8 他们必自作自受,
被自己的舌头所害。
看见的人都嘲笑他们。
9 这样,人人必敬畏上帝,
传扬祂奇妙的作为,
思想祂所做的事。
10 义人必因耶和华而欢欣,
并且投靠祂,
心地正直的人必赞美祂。
Psalm 64
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
Psalm 64[a]
Treacherous Conspirators Punished by God
1 For the leader. A psalm of David.
I
2 O God, hear my anguished voice;
from a dreadful foe protect my life.
3 Hide me from the malicious crowd,
the mob of evildoers.
4 They sharpen their tongues like swords,
bend their bows of poison words.(A)
5 They shoot at the innocent from ambush,
they shoot him in a moment and do not fear.
6 They resolve on their wicked plan;
they conspire to set snares;
they say: “Who will see us?”
7 They devise wicked schemes,
conceal the schemes they devise;
the designs of their hearts are hidden.(B)
II
8 God shoots an arrow at them;
in a moment they are struck down.(C)
9 They are brought down by their own tongues;
all who see them flee.(D)
10 Every person fears and proclaims God’s actions,
they ponder his deeds.
11 The righteous rejoices and takes refuge in the Lord;
all the upright give praise.(E)
Footnotes
- Psalm 64 A lament of a person overwhelmed by the malice of the wicked who are depicted in the Psalms as the enemies of the righteous (Ps 64:2–7). When people see God bringing upon the wicked the evil they intended against others, they will know who is the true ruler of the world (Ps 64:8–10). The final verse is a vow of praise (Ps 64:11).
