诗篇 86
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
祈求 神的拯救与保护
大卫的祷告。
86 耶和华啊！求你留心听我、应允我，
因为我是困苦贫穷的。（本节在《马索拉文本》包括细字标题）
2 求你保护我的性命，因为我是虔诚的人；
我的 神啊！求你拯救这倚靠你的仆人。
3 主啊！求你恩待我，
因为我终日向你呼求。
4 主啊！求你使你的仆人心里欢喜，
因为我的心仰望你。
5 主啊！你是良善，又乐意饶恕人的，
向你呼求的，你都以丰盛的慈爱待他们。
6 耶和华啊！求你侧耳听我的祷告，
留心听我的恳求。
7 在我遭难的日子，我要求告你，
因为你必应允我。
8 主啊！在众神之中，没有能和你相比的，
你的作为也是无可比拟的。
9 主啊！你所造的万国都要来，在你面前下拜，
他们必荣耀你的名。
10 因为你是伟大的，并且行奇妙的事，
只有你是 神。
11 耶和华啊！求你把你的道路指教我，
使我行在你的真理中，
专心敬畏你的名。
12 主我的 神啊！我要满心称赞你，
我要永远荣耀你的名。
13 因为你向我大施慈爱，
你救了我的命，免入阴间的深处。
14 神啊！骄傲的人起来攻击我，
一群强暴的人寻索我的性命，
他们不把你放在眼内。
15 但是，主啊！你是有怜悯有恩典的 神，
你不轻易发怒，并且有极大的慈爱和信实。
16 求你转向我，恩待我；
把你的能力赐给你的仆人，
拯救你婢女的儿子。
17 求你向我显出恩待我的记号，
好使恨我的人看见了，就觉得羞愧；
因为你耶和华帮助了我，安慰了我。
Psalm 86
New English Translation
Psalm 86[a]
A prayer of David.
86 Listen,[b] O Lord. Answer me.
For I am oppressed and needy.
2 Protect me,[c] for I am loyal.
You are my God; deliver your servant who trusts in you.
3 Have mercy on me,[d] O Lord,
for I cry out to you all day long.
4 Make your servant[e] glad,
for to you, O Lord, I pray.[f]
5 Certainly,[g] O Lord, you are kind[h] and forgiving,
and show great faithfulness to all who cry out to you.
6 O Lord, hear my prayer.
Pay attention to my plea for mercy.
7 In my time of trouble I cry out to you,
for you will answer me.
8 None can compare to you among the gods, O Lord.
Your exploits are incomparable.[i]
9 All the nations, whom you created,
will come and worship you,[j] O Lord.
They will honor your name.
10 For you are great and do amazing things.
You alone are God.
11 O Lord, teach me how you want me to live.[k]
Then I will obey your commands.[l]
Make me wholeheartedly committed to you.[m]
12 O Lord, my God, I will give you thanks with my whole heart.
I will honor your name continually.[n]
13 For you will extend your great loyal love to me,[o]
and will deliver my life[p] from the depths of Sheol.[q]
14 O God, arrogant men attack me;[r]
a gang[s] of ruthless men, who do not respect you, seek my life.[t]
15 But you, O Lord, are a compassionate and merciful God.
You are patient[u] and demonstrate great loyal love and faithfulness.[v]
16 Turn toward me and have mercy on me.
Give your servant your strength.
Deliver this son of your female servant.[w]
17 Show me evidence of your favor.[x]
Then those who hate me will see it and be ashamed,[y]
for you, O Lord, will help me and comfort me.[z]
Footnotes

- Psalm 86:5 tn Heb “good.”
- Psalm 86:8 tn Heb “and there are none like your acts.”
- Psalm 86:9 tn Or “bow down before you.”
- Psalm 86:11 tn Heb “teach me your way.” The Lord’s “way” refers here to the moral principles he expects the psalmist to follow. See Pss 25:4; 27:11.
- Psalm 86:11 tn Heb “I will walk in your truth.” The Lord’s commandments are referred to as “truth” here because they are a trustworthy and accurate expression of the divine will. See Ps 25:5.
- Psalm 86:11 tn Heb “Bind my heart to the fearing of your name.” The verb translated “bind” occurs only here in the Piel stem. It appears twice in the Qal, meaning “be joined” in both cases (Gen 49:6; Isa 14:20). To “fear” God’s name means to have a healthy respect for him which in turn motivates one to obey his commands (see Pss 61:5; 102:15).
- Psalm 86:12 tn Or “forever.”
- Psalm 86:13 tn Heb “for your loyal love [is] great over me.”
- Psalm 86:13 tn Or “for he will have delivered my life.” The verb form indicates a future perfect here.
- Psalm 86:13 tn Or “lower Sheol.”
- Psalm 86:14 tn Heb “rise up against me.”
- Psalm 86:14 tn Or “assembly.”
- Psalm 86:14 tn Heb “seek my life and do not set you before them.” See Ps 54:3.
- Psalm 86:15 tn Heb “slow to anger.”
- Psalm 86:15 tn Heb “and great of loyal love and faithfulness.”sn The psalmist’s confession of faith in this verse echoes Exod 34:6.
- Psalm 86:16 tn Heb “the son of your female servant.” The phrase “son of a female servant” (see also Ps 116:16) is used of a son born to a secondary wife or concubine (Exod 23:12). In some cases the child’s father is the master of the house (see Gen 21:10, 13; Judg 9:18). The phrase may be used metaphorically and idiomatically to emphasize the psalmist’s humility before the Lord and his status as the Lord’s servant. Or it may be a reference to the psalmist’s own mother who also was a servant of the Lord.
- Psalm 86:17 tn Heb “Work with me a sign for good.” The expression “work a sign” also occurs in Judg 6:17.
- Psalm 86:17 tn After the imperative in the preceding line (“work”), the prefixed verb forms with prefixed vav (ו) conjunctive indicate purpose or result.
- Psalm 86:17 tn The perfect verbal forms are understood here as dramatic/rhetorical, expressing the psalmist’s certitude that such a sign from the Lord will be followed by his intervention. Another option is to understand the forms as future perfects (“for you, O Lord, will have helped me and comforted me”).
