诗篇 72
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
为君王祈祷
所罗门的诗。
72 上帝啊,
求你将你的公正赐给王,
将你的公义赐给王的儿子。
2 让他凭公义审判你的子民,
按公平对待那些贫苦的人。
3 愿大山给百姓带来繁荣,
小山带来公义。
4 愿他保护百姓中受苦的人,
拯救贫穷的人,打倒欺压者。
5 只要日月尚存,
愿百姓永远敬畏你。
6 愿他的统治如春雨降在新割过的草场上,
又像甘霖滋润大地。
7 在他统治之下,
愿义人兴旺,国富民强,
如月长存。
8 愿他的疆域横跨洋海,
从幼发拉底河直到地极。
9 愿旷野的居民都来向他下拜,
敌人都扑倒在尘土中。
10 愿他施、示巴和西巴的君王都来纳贡称臣。
11 愿君王都敬拜他,
万国都事奉他。
12 贫穷人呼求,他便搭救;
困苦人无助,他就伸出援手。
13 他怜悯软弱和贫困的人,
拯救贫困人的性命。
14 他要救他们脱离别人的压迫和暴力,
因为他爱惜他们的生命。
15 愿王寿命长久,
愿人们将示巴的金子献给他,
不断为他祷告,
终日称颂他。
16 愿遍地五谷丰登,
山顶上出产丰富,
如黎巴嫩的密林。
愿各城人口稠密如原野的青草。
17 愿他的名流芳百世,如日长存。
愿万国都因他而蒙福,
都称颂他。
18 以色列的上帝耶和华当受称颂,
唯有祂行奇妙的事。
19 愿祂荣耀的名永受称颂!
愿普天下充满祂的荣耀。
阿们!阿们!
20 耶西的儿子大卫的祷告结束。
Psalm 72
Wycliffe Bible
72 To Solomon. God, give thy doom to the king; and thy rightfulness to the son of the king. (A psalm, or a song, for Solomon. God, give thy judgement to the king; yea, thy righteousness to the king’s son.)
2 To deem thy people in rightfulness; and thy poor men in doom. (To judge thy people with righteousness; and thy poor with justice.)
3 Mountains receive peace to the people; and little hills receive rightfulness. (May the mountains and the little hills, bring peace and prosperity to the people; in righteousness.)
4 He shall deem the poor men of the people, and he shall make safe the sons of poor men; and he shall make low the false challenger. (He shall judge the poor, and he shall save the sons and the daughters of the poor; and he shall bring down their oppressors.)
5 And he shall dwell with the sun, and before the moon, that is, without beginning, and (without) end; in generation and into generation (in all generations).
6 He shall come down as rain into a fleece; and as gutters dropping on the earth. (He shall come down like rain onto a field; and like showers dropping upon the earth.)
7 Rightfulness shall come forth in his days (Righteousness shall come forth in his days); and the abundance of peace, till the moon be taken away.
8 And he shall be lord from the sea till to the sea; and from the flood till to the ends of the world. (And he shall be lord from sea to sea; and from the Euphrates River unto the ends of the earth.)
9 Ethiopians shall fall down before him; and his enemies shall lick the earth. (Those who live in the desert shall bow down before him; and his enemies shall lick the dust.)
10 The kings of Tarshish and isles shall offer gifts; the kings of Arabia and of Seba shall bring gifts. (The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall offer gifts, or tribute; the kings of Sheba and of Seba shall also bring him gifts, or tribute.)
11 And all kings shall worship him; all folks shall serve him (all nations shall serve him).
12 For he shall deliver a poor man from the mighty; and a poor man to whom there was none helper. (For he shall rescue the poor from the mighty; yea, the poor for whom there was no helper.)
13 He shall spare a poor man and needy; and he shall make safe the souls of poor men. (He shall spare the poor and the needy; yea, he shall save the souls, or the lives, of the poor.)
14 He shall again-buy the souls of them from usuries, and wickedness; and the name of them is honourable before him.
15 And he shall live, and men shall give to him of the gold of Arabia; and they shall ever worship of him, all day they shall bless him. (And long may he live, and may men give to him the gold of Sheba; they shall worship him forever, yea, all day long they shall bless him.)
16 Steadfastness shall be in the earth, in the highest place of mountains; the fruit thereof shall be enhanced above the Lebanon; and they shall blossom from the city, as the hay of earth doeth. (May corn grow in all the earth, even on the highest places of the mountains; may the crops there be numbered above that of Lebanon; and may the people in the city increase like the hay, or the grass, in the fields.)
17 His name be blessed into worlds; his name dwell before the sun. And all the lineages of earth shall be blessed in him; all folks shall magnify him. (May the king’s name be blessed forever; and his name remain as long as the sun. And may all the peoples of the earth ask to be blessed as he was; may all the nations magnify him.)
18 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; which alone maketh marvels. (Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; who alone doeth these marvellous deeds.)
19 And blessed be the name of his majesty [into] without end; and all earth shall be filled with his majesty; be it done, be it done. (And blessed be his majestic name forever; let all the earth be filled with his majesty, or his glory; be it done, be it done.)
20 The prayers of David, the son of Jesse, be ended.

1 Endow the king with your justice,(A) O God,

and from the River[b](J) to the ends of the earth.(K)

the afflicted who have no one to help.
13 He will take pity(R) on the weak and the needy
and save the needy from death.
14 He will rescue(S) them from oppression and violence,
for precious(T) is their blood in his sight.
15 Long may he live!
May gold from Sheba(U) be given him.
May people ever pray for him
and bless him all day long.(V)
16 May grain(W) abound throughout the land;
on the tops of the hills may it sway.
May the crops(X) flourish like Lebanon(Y)
and thrive[c] like the grass of the field.(Z)
17 May his name endure forever;(AA)
may it continue as long as the sun.(AB)
18 Praise be to the Lord God, the God of Israel,(AD)
who alone does marvelous deeds.(AE)
19 Praise be to his glorious name(AF) forever;
may the whole earth be filled with his glory.(AG)
Amen and Amen.(AH)
20 This concludes the prayers of David son of Jesse.(AI)
