诗篇 74
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
祈求 神记念他的子民
亚萨的训诲诗。
74 神啊！你为甚么永远丢弃我们呢？
为甚么你的怒气向你草场上的羊群好象烟冒出呢？（本节在《马索拉文本》包括细字标题）
2 求你记念你在古时买赎的会众，
就是你赎回作你产业的民族；
求你记念你所居住的锡安山。
3 求你举步去看那些长久荒凉的地方，
去看仇敌在圣所里所行的一切恶事。
4 你的敌人在敬拜你的聚会中吼叫，
他们竖起了自己的旗帜为记号。
5 他们好象那些举起斧子，
在树林中砍伐树木的人。
6 圣殿中的一切雕刻，
他们都用斧子和铳子打碎了。
7 他们用火把你的圣所烧成焦土，
他们亵渎你名的居所。
8 他们心里说：“我们要把它们完全毁灭！”
他们烧毁了地上一切敬拜 神的聚会地方。
9 我们看不见我们的记号，
也不再有先知；
我们中间也没有人知道这灾祸要到几时。
10 神啊！敌人辱骂你要到几时呢？
仇敌亵慢你的名要到永远吗？
11 你为甚么把你的手，就是你的右手收回呢？
求你从怀中抽出来毁灭他们。
12 神自古以来就是我的君王，
在地上施行拯救。
13 你曾用你的大能分开大海，
把海中怪兽的头都打碎了。
14 你砸碎了利未亚坦（“利未亚坦”为原文音译词，或译：“海怪”〔伯3:8〕或“鳄鱼”〔伯41:1〕）的头，
把牠给住在旷野的人作食物。
15 你曾开辟泉源和溪流，
又使长流不息的江河干涸。
16 白昼是你的，黑夜也是你的，
月亮和太阳，都是你设立的。
17 地上的一切疆界都是你立定的，
夏天和冬天都是你制定的。
18 耶和华啊！仇敌辱骂你，
愚顽人亵渎你的名，
求你记念这事。
19 求你不要把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，
因为地上黑暗的地方充满了强暴的居所。
21 不要使受欺压的人蒙羞回去，
要使困苦、贫穷的人赞美你的名。
22 神啊！求你起来，为你的案件辩护，
要记得愚顽人终日对你的辱骂。
23 求你不要忘记你敌人的声音，
不要忘记那些起来与你为敌的人不住加剧地喧闹。
Psalm 74
New King James Version
A Plea for Relief from Oppressors
A [a]Contemplation of Asaph.
74 O God, why have You cast us off forever?
Why does Your anger smoke against the sheep of Your pasture?
2 Remember Your congregation, which You have purchased of old,
The tribe of Your inheritance, which You have redeemed—
This Mount Zion where You have dwelt.
3 Lift up Your feet to the perpetual desolations.
The enemy has damaged everything in the sanctuary.
4 (A)Your enemies roar in the midst of Your meeting place;
(B)They set up their banners for signs.
5 They seem like men who lift up
Axes among the thick trees.
6 And now they break down its carved work, all at once,
With axes and hammers.
7 They have set fire to Your sanctuary;
They have defiled the dwelling place of Your name to the ground.
8 (C)They said in their hearts,
“Let us [b]destroy them altogether.”
They have burned up all the meeting places of God in the land.
9 We do not see our signs;
(D)There is no longer any prophet;
Nor is there any among us who knows how long.
10 O God, how long will the adversary [c]reproach?
Will the enemy blaspheme Your name forever?
11 (E)Why do You withdraw Your hand, even Your right hand?
Take it out of Your bosom and destroy them.
12 For (F)God is my King from of old,
Working salvation in the midst of the earth.
13 (G)You divided the sea by Your strength;
You broke the heads of the [d]sea serpents in the waters.
14 You broke the heads of [e]Leviathan in pieces,
And gave him as food to the people inhabiting the wilderness.
15 (H)You broke open the fountain and the flood;
(I)You dried up mighty rivers.
16 The day is Yours, the night also is (J)Yours;
(K)You have prepared the light and the sun.
17 You have (L)set all the borders of the earth;
(M)You have made summer and winter.
18 Remember this, that the enemy has reproached, O Lord,
And that a foolish people has blasphemed Your name.
19 Oh, do not deliver the life of Your turtledove to the wild beast!
Do not forget the life of Your poor forever.
20 (N)Have respect to the covenant;
For the [f]dark places of the earth are full of the [g]haunts of [h]cruelty.
21 Oh, do not let the oppressed return ashamed!
Let the poor and needy praise Your name.
22 Arise, O God, plead Your own cause;
Remember how the foolish man [i]reproaches You daily.
23 Do not forget the voice of Your enemies;
The tumult of those who rise up against You increases continually.
