诗篇 83
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
祈求 神消滅周圍敵國
歌一首，亞薩的詩。
83 神啊！求你不要靜默；
神啊！求你不要閉口，也不要一言不發。
2 看哪！你的仇敵喧嘩，
恨你的人都抬起頭來。
3 他們密謀奸詐，陷害你的子民；
他們彼此商議，攻擊你所寶貴的人。
4 他們說：“來吧！我們來把他們除滅，使他們不再成國，
使以色列的名不再被人記念。”
5 他們同心商議，
彼此結盟，要和你對抗。
6 他們就是住帳棚的以東人和以實瑪利人，
摩押人和夏甲人，
7 迦巴勒、亞捫、亞瑪力、
非利士和推羅的居民。
8 亞述也和他們聯合起來，
作了羅得子孫的幫手。（細拉）
9 求你待他們好像待米甸人，
像在基順河待西西拉和耶賓一樣；
10 他們都在隱．多珥被消滅，
成了地上的糞土。
11 求你使他們的貴族像俄立和西伊伯，
使他們的王子像西巴和撒慕拿。
12 他們曾說：
“我們要得著 神的牧場作自己的產業。”
13 我的 神啊！求你使他們像旋風捲起的草，
像風前的碎稭。
14 火怎樣焚燒樹林，
火燄怎樣燃燒群山，
15 求你也照樣用狂風追趕他們，
藉暴風雨驚嚇他們。
16 耶和華啊！求你使他們滿面羞愧，
好使他們尋求你的名。
17 願他們永遠受辱驚惶，
願他們抱愧滅亡。
18 使他們知道只有你的名是耶和華，
唯有你是掌管全地的至高者。
Psalm 83
1599 Geneva Bible
83 1 The people of Israel pray unto the Lord to deliver them from their enemies both at home and far off, which imagined nothing but their destruction. 9 And they desire that all such wicked people may according as God was accustomed, be stricken with the stormy tempest of God’s wrath, 18 That they may know that the Lord is most high upon the earth.
A song or Psalm committed to Asaph.
1 Keep [a]not thou silence, O God: be not still, and cease not, O God.
2 For lo, thine [b]enemies make a tumult, and they that hate thee, have lifted up the head.
3 They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and have consulted against thy [c]secret ones.
4 They have said, Come and let us [d]cut them off from being a nation: and let the name of Israel be no more in remembrance.
5 For they have consulted together in [e]heart, and have made a league [f]against thee:
6 The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites, Moab and the Hagarites:
7 Gebal and Ammon, and Amalek, the Philistines, with the inhabitants of [g]Tyre.
8 Assyria also is joined with them: they have been an arm to the children [h]of Lot. Selah.
9 Do thou to them as unto the [i]Midianites: as to Sisera and as to Jabin at the river of Kishon.
10 They perished at En Dor, and were [j]dung for the earth.
11 Make them, even their princes, like (A)Oreb and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes like Zebah and like Zalmunna,
12 Which have said, Let us take for our possession the [k]habitations of God.
13 O my God, make them like unto a [l]wheel, and as the stubble before the wind.
14 As the fire burneth the forest, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire:
15 So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm.
16 Fill their faces with shame, that they may [m]seek thy Name, O Lord.
17 Let them be confounded and troubled forever: yea, let them be put to shame, and perish,
18 That they may [n]know that thou, which art calleth Jehovah, art alone, even the most High over all the earth.
