诗篇 80
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
祈求 神眷顾复兴他的子民
亚萨的诗,交给诗班长,调用“见证的花”。
80 以色列的牧者啊!带领约瑟好象带领羊群的啊!
求你留心听;
坐在基路伯上面的啊!
求你显出荣光。
2 在以法莲、便雅悯和玛拿西面前,
求你施展你的大能,
前来拯救我们。
3 神啊,求你使我们复兴!
愿你的脸光照我们,我们就可以得救。
4 耶和华万军之 神啊!
你因你子民的祷告发怒,要到几时呢?
5 你使他们以眼泪当饼吃,
使他们喝满杯的泪水。
6 你使我们的邻国因我们纷争,
我们的仇敌也讥笑我们。
7 万军的 神啊!求你使我们复兴;
愿你的脸光照我们,我们就可以得救。
8 你从埃及带走一棵葡萄树,
你赶出外族人,把这树栽上。
9 你为它预备了地土,
它就深深扎根,充满全地。
10 它的荫影遮盖了群山,
它的枝条遮盖了高大的香柏树。
11 它的枝条伸展,直到大海;
它的幼苗,直到大河。
12 你为甚么拆毁它的篱笆,
任由所有过路的人采摘呢?
13 从树林中出来的野猪践踏它,
田野的走兽把它吃了。
14 万军的 神啊!求你回心转意,
从天上垂看鉴察,
眷顾这葡萄树,
15 眷顾你右手栽种的根,
和你为自己培育的儿子。
16 这树已被火烧,被砍下;
他们因你脸上的怒容灭亡。
17 愿你的手护庇你右边的人,
就是你为自己培育的人。
18 这样,我们就不退后离开你;
求你救活我们,我们就要求告你的名。
19 耶和华万军的 神啊!求你使我们复兴;
愿你的脸光照我们,我们就可以得救。
Psalm 80
Contemporary English Version
(A psalm by Asaph for the music leader. To the tune “Lilies of the Agreement.”)
Help Our Nation
1 (A) Shepherd of Israel, you lead
the descendants of Joseph,
and you sit on your throne
above the winged creatures.[a]
Listen to our prayer
and let your light shine
2 for the tribes of Ephraim,
Benjamin, and Manasseh.
Save us by your power.
3 Our God, make us strong again!
Smile on us and save us.
4 Lord God All-Powerful,
how much longer
will the prayers of your people
make you angry?
5 You gave us tears for food,
and you made us drink them
by the bowlful.
6 Because of you,
our enemies who live nearby
laugh and joke about us.
7 Our God, make us strong again!
Smile on us and save us.
8 We were like a grapevine
you brought out of Egypt.
You chased other nations away
and planted us here.
9 Then you cleared the ground,
and we put our roots deep,
spreading over the land.
10 Shade from this vine covered
the mountains.
Its branches climbed
the mighty cedars
11 and stretched to the sea;
its new growth reached
to the river.[b]
12 Our Lord, why have you
torn down the wall
from around the vineyard?
You let everyone who walks by
pick the grapes.
13 Now the vine is gobbled up
by pigs from the forest
and other wild animals.
14 God All-Powerful,
please do something!
Look down from heaven
and see what's happening
to this vine.
15 With your own hands
you planted its roots,
and you raised it
as your very own.
16 Enemies chopped the vine down
and set it on fire.
Now show your anger
and destroy them.
17 But help the one who sits
at your right side,[c]
the one you raised
to be your very own.
18 Then we will never turn away.
Put new life into us,
and we will worship you.
19 Lord God All-Powerful,
make us strong again!
Smile on us and save us.

Psalm 80
Young's Literal Translation
80 To the Overseer. -- `On the Lilies.' A testimony of Asaph. -- A Psalm. Shepherd of Israel, give ear, Leading Joseph as a flock, Inhabiting the cherubs -- shine forth,
2 Before Ephraim, and Benjamin, and Manasseh, Wake up Thy might, and come for our salvation.
3 O God, cause us to turn back, And cause Thy face to shine, and we are saved.
4 Jehovah, God of Hosts, till when? Thou hast burned against the prayer of Thy people.
5 Thou hast caused them to eat bread of tears, And causest them to drink With tears a third time.
6 Thou makest us a strife to our neighbors, And our enemies mock at it.
7 God of Hosts, turn us back, And cause Thy face to shine, and we are saved.
8 A vine out of Egypt Thou dost bring, Thou dost cast out nations, and plantest it.
9 Thou hast looked before it, and dost root it, And it filleth the land,
10 Covered have been hills [with] its shadow, And its boughs [are] cedars of God.
11 It sendeth forth its branches unto the sea, And unto the river its sucklings.
12 Why hast Thou broken down its hedges, And all passing by the way have plucked it?
13 A boar out of the forest doth waste it, And a wild beast of the fields consumeth it.
14 God of Hosts, turn back, we beseech Thee, Look from heaven, and see, and inspect this vine,
15 And the root that Thy right hand planted, And the branch Thou madest strong for Thee,
16 Burnt with fire -- cut down, From the rebuke of Thy face they perish.
17 Let Thy hand be on the man of Thy right hand, On the son of man Thou hast strengthened for Thyself.
18 And we do not go back from Thee, Thou dost revive us, and in Thy name we call.
19 O Jehovah, God of Hosts, turn us back, Cause Thy face to shine, and we are saved!
