诗篇 74
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
哀诉选民受制圣殿被毁
74 亚萨的训诲诗。
1 神啊,你为何永远丢弃我们呢?你为何向你草场的羊发怒,如烟冒出呢?
2 求你记念你古时所得来的会众,就是你所赎做你产业支派的,并记念你向来所居住的锡安山。
3 求你举步去看那日久荒凉之地,仇敌在圣所中所行的一切恶事。
4 你的敌人在你会中吼叫,他们竖了自己的旗为记号。
5 他们好像人扬起斧子,砍伐林中的树。
6 圣所中一切雕刻的,他们现在用斧子锤子打坏了。
7 他们用火焚烧你的圣所,亵渎你名的居所,拆毁到地。
8 他们心里说:“我们要尽行毁灭!”他们就在遍地把神的会所都烧毁了。
9 我们不见我们的标帜,不再有先知,我们内中也没有人知道,这灾祸要到几时呢。
10 神啊,敌人辱骂要到几时呢?仇敌亵渎你的名要到永远吗?
11 你为什么缩回你的右手?求你从怀中伸出来毁灭他们!
12 神自古以来为我的王,在地上施行拯救。
13 你曾用能力将海分开,将水中大鱼的头打破。
14 你曾砸碎鳄鱼的头,把它给旷野的禽兽[a]为食物。
15 你曾分裂磐石,水便成了溪河;你使长流的江河干了。
16 白昼属你,黑夜也属你,亮光和日头是你所预备的。
17 地的一切疆界是你所立的,夏天和冬天是你所定的。
18 耶和华啊,仇敌辱骂,愚顽民亵渎了你的名,求你记念这事。
19 不要将你斑鸠的性命交给野兽,不要永远忘记你困苦人的性命。
20 求你顾念所立的约,因为地上黑暗之处都满了强暴的居所。
21 不要叫受欺压的人蒙羞回去,要叫困苦穷乏的人赞美你的名。
22 神啊,求你起来为自己申诉,要记念愚顽人怎样终日辱骂你。
23 不要忘记你敌人的声音,那起来敌你之人的喧哗时常上升。

Psalm 74
Contemporary English Version
(A special psalm by Asaph.)
A Prayer for the Nation in Times of Trouble
1 Our God, why have you
completely rejected us?
Why are you so angry
with the ones you care for?
2 Remember the people
you rescued long ago,
the tribe you chose
for your very own.
Think of Mount Zion,
your home;
3 walk over to the temple
left in ruins forever
by those who hate us.
4 Your enemies roared like lions
in your holy temple,
and they have placed
their banners there.
5 It looks like a forest
chopped to pieces.[a]
6 They used axes and hatchets
to smash the carvings.
7 They burned down your temple
and badly disgraced it.
8 They said to themselves,
“We'll crush them!”
Then they burned every one
of your meeting places
all over the country.
9 There are no more miracles
and no more prophets.
Who knows how long
it will be like this?
10 Our God, how much longer
will our enemies sneer?
Won't they ever stop
insulting you?
11 Why don't you punish them?
Why are you holding back?
12 Our God and King,
you have ruled
since ancient times;
you have won victories
everywhere on this earth.
13 (A) By your power you made a path
through the sea,
and you smashed the heads
of sea monsters.
14 (B) You crushed the heads
of the monster Leviathan,[b]
then fed him to wild creatures
in the desert.
15 You opened the ground
for streams and springs
and dried up mighty rivers.
16 You rule the day and the night,
and you put the moon
and the sun in place.
17 You made summer and winter
and gave them to the earth.[c]
18 Remember your enemies, Lord!
They foolishly sneer
and won't respect you.
19 You treat us like pet doves,
but they mistreat us.
Don't keep forgetting us
and letting us be fed
to those wild animals.
20 Remember the agreement
you made with us.
Violent enemies are hiding
in every dark corner
of the earth.
21 Don't disappoint those in need
or make them turn from you,
but help the poor and homeless
to shout your praises.
22 Do something, God!
Defend yourself.
Remember how those fools
sneer at you all day long.
23 Don't forget the loud shouts
of your enemies.
Psalm 74
New International Version
Psalm 74
A maskil[a] of Asaph.
1 O God, why have you rejected(A) us forever?(B)
Why does your anger smolder against the sheep of your pasture?(C)
2 Remember the nation you purchased(D) long ago,(E)
the people of your inheritance,(F) whom you redeemed(G)—
Mount Zion,(H) where you dwelt.(I)
3 Turn your steps toward these everlasting ruins,(J)
all this destruction the enemy has brought on the sanctuary.
4 Your foes roared(K) in the place where you met with us;
they set up their standards(L) as signs.
5 They behaved like men wielding axes
to cut through a thicket of trees.(M)
6 They smashed all the carved(N) paneling
with their axes and hatchets.
7 They burned your sanctuary to the ground;
they defiled(O) the dwelling place(P) of your Name.(Q)
8 They said in their hearts, “We will crush(R) them completely!”
They burned(S) every place where God was worshiped in the land.
9 We are given no signs from God;(T)
no prophets(U) are left,
and none of us knows how long this will be.
10 How long(V) will the enemy mock(W) you, God?
Will the foe revile(X) your name forever?
11 Why do you hold back your hand, your right hand?(Y)
Take it from the folds of your garment(Z) and destroy them!
13 It was you who split open the sea(AC) by your power;
you broke the heads of the monster(AD) in the waters.
14 It was you who crushed the heads of Leviathan(AE)
and gave it as food to the creatures of the desert.(AF)
15 It was you who opened up springs(AG) and streams;
you dried up(AH) the ever-flowing rivers.
16 The day is yours, and yours also the night;
you established the sun and moon.(AI)
17 It was you who set all the boundaries(AJ) of the earth;
you made both summer and winter.(AK)
18 Remember how the enemy has mocked you, Lord,
how foolish people(AL) have reviled your name.
19 Do not hand over the life of your dove(AM) to wild beasts;
do not forget the lives of your afflicted(AN) people forever.
20 Have regard for your covenant,(AO)
because haunts of violence fill the dark places(AP) of the land.
21 Do not let the oppressed(AQ) retreat in disgrace;
may the poor and needy(AR) praise your name.
22 Rise up,(AS) O God, and defend your cause;
remember how fools(AT) mock you all day long.
23 Do not ignore the clamor(AU) of your adversaries,(AV)
the uproar(AW) of your enemies,(AX) which rises continually.
