诗篇 73
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
卷三：诗篇73—89
上帝的公正审判
亚萨的诗。
73 上帝实在善待以色列人，
恩待那些内心纯洁的人。
2 我却身陷险地，
几乎失脚跌倒。
3 我看见狂傲的恶人亨通就心怀不平。
4 他们一生平顺，健康强壮。
5 他们不像别人受苦，
不像世人遭难。
6 他们把骄傲作项链戴在颈上，
把暴力作外袍裹在身上。
7 他们胖得眼睛凸出，
心中充满罪恶。
8 他们讥讽嘲笑，言语恶毒，
狂妄地以暴力相威胁。
9 他们亵渎上天，诋毁大地。
10 上帝的子民也跟随他们，
听从他们的话。
11 他们说：
“上帝怎能知道？
至高者会察觉吗？”
12 看这些恶人，
他们总是生活安逸，财富日增。
13 我洁身自爱，保持清白，
实属徒然。
14 我天天遭灾，日日受苦。
15 要是我这样说，
我就是背叛了你的子民。
16 我想明白这一切，
却百思不得其解。
17 直到我进入你的圣所，
才明白他们的结局。
18 你把他们放在容易滑倒的地方，
使他们落入毁灭中。
19 他们顷刻间被毁灭，
在恐怖中彻底灭亡。
20 他们不过是人醒来后的一场梦。
主啊，你一行动，
他们必灰飞烟灭。
21 我曾感到悲伤，心如刀绞。
22 我当时愚昧无知，
在你面前如同畜类。
23 然而，我一直和你在一起，
你牵着我的手引导我。
24 你以谆谆教诲指引我，
以后必接我到荣耀中。
25 除你以外，在天上我还有谁？
除你以外，在地上我别无爱慕。
26 尽管我身心俱衰，
上帝永远是我心中的力量，
永远属于我。
27 那些远离你的人必灭亡，
你必灭绝不忠于你的人。
28 对于我，到上帝面前是何等美好。
我以主耶和华为我的避难所，
并宣扬祂的一切作为。
Psalm 73
New Century Version
Should the Wicked Be Rich?
A psalm of Asaph.
73 God is truly good to Israel,
to those who have pure hearts.
2 But I had almost stopped believing;
I had almost lost my faith
3 because I was jealous of proud people.
I saw wicked people doing well.
4 They are not suffering;
they are healthy and strong.
5 They don’t have troubles like the rest of us;
they don’t have problems like other people.
6 They wear pride like a necklace
and put on violence as their clothing.
7 They are looking for profits
and do not control their selfish desires.
8 They make fun of others and speak evil;
proudly they speak of hurting others.
9 They brag to the sky.
They say that they own the earth.
10 So their people turn to them
and give them whatever they want.
11 They say, “How can God know?
What does God Most High know?”
12 These people are wicked,
always at ease, and getting richer.
13 So why have I kept my heart pure?
Why have I kept my hands from doing wrong?
14 I have suffered all day long;
I have been punished every morning.
15 God, if I had decided to talk like this,
I would have let your people down.
16 I tried to understand all this,
but it was too hard for me to see
17 until I went to the Temple of God.
Then I understood what will happen to them.
18 You have put them in danger;
you cause them to be destroyed.
19 They are destroyed in a moment;
they are swept away by terrors.
20 It will be like waking from a dream.
Lord, when you rise up, they will disappear.
21 When my heart was sad
and I was angry,
22 I was senseless and stupid.
I acted like an animal toward you.
23 But I am always with you;
you have held my hand.
24 You guide me with your advice,
and later you will receive me in honor.
25 I have no one in heaven but you;
I want nothing on earth besides you.
26 My body and my mind may become weak,
but God is my strength.
He is mine forever.
27 Those who are far from God will die;
you destroy those who are unfaithful.
28 But I am close to God, and that is good.
The Lord God is my protection.
I will tell all that you have done.
