稱頌 神公義的審判

大衛的詩,交給詩班長,調用“慕拉賓”。

耶和華啊!我要全心稱謝你,

我要述說你一切奇妙的作為。

我要因你快樂歡欣;

至高者啊!我要歌頌你的名。

我的仇敵轉身退後的時候,

就在你的面前絆倒、滅亡。

因為你為我伸了冤,辨了屈;

你坐在寶座上,施行公義的審判。

你斥責了列國,滅絕了惡人;

你塗抹了他們的名,直到永永遠遠。

仇敵的結局到了,他們遭毀滅,

直到永遠;

你拆毀他們的城鎮,使它們湮沒無聞。

耶和華卻永遠坐著為王,

為了施行審判,他已經設立寶座。

他必以公義審判世界,

按正直判斷萬民。

耶和華要給受欺壓的人作保障,

作患難時的避難所。

10 認識你名的人必倚靠你;

耶和華啊!你從未撇棄尋求你的人。

11 你們要歌頌住在錫安的耶和華,

要在萬民中傳揚他的作為。

12 因為那追討流人血的罪的,他記念受苦的人,

他沒有忘記他們的哀求。

13 耶和華啊!求你恩待我,

看看那些恨我的人加給我的苦難;

求你把我從死門拉上來,

14 好叫我述說你一切可稱頌的事,

並在錫安的城門(“的城門”原文作“女子的門”)因你的救恩歡樂。

15 列國陷入自己挖掘的坑中,

他們的腳在自己暗設的網裡纏住了。

16 耶和華已經把自己顯明,又施行了審判;

惡人被自己手所作的纏住了。(希迦庸、細拉)

17 惡人都必歸到陰間,

忘記 神的列國都必滅亡。

18 但貧窮的人必不會被永遠遺忘,

困苦人的希望也必不會永久落空。

19 耶和華啊!求你起來,不要讓世人得勝;

願列國都在你面前受審判。

20 耶和華啊!求你使他們驚懼,

願列國都知道自己不過是人。(細拉)

称颂上帝的公义

大卫的诗,交给乐长,调用“慕拉辨”[a]

耶和华啊,
我要全心全意地赞美你,
传扬你一切奇妙的作为。
我要因你欢喜快乐,
至高者啊,我要歌颂你的名。
我的仇敌必在你面前败退,
倒地身亡。
你坐在宝座上按公义审判,
你为我主持公道。
你斥责列国,消灭恶人,
永永远远抹去他们的名字。
仇敌永远灭亡了,
你把他们的城池连根拔起,
无人再记得他们。
耶和华永远掌权,
祂已设立施行审判的宝座。
祂要以公义审判世界,
在万民中伸张正义。
耶和华是受欺压之人的避难所,
是他们患难之时的避风港。
10 耶和华啊,
凡认识你名的人都必信靠你,
因为你从来不丢弃寻求你的人。
11 要歌颂住在锡安的耶和华,
在列邦传扬祂的作为。
12 祂追讨血债,顾念受害者,
不忘倾听受苦者的呼求。
13 耶和华啊,
看看仇敌对我的迫害!
求你怜悯我,
救我离开死亡之门,
14 我好在锡安的城门口称颂你,
因你的拯救而欢乐。
15 列邦挖了陷阱却自陷其中,
设下网罗却缠住自己的脚。
16 耶和华彰显了自己的公义,
使恶人自食其果。(细拉)
17 恶人必下阴间,这是所有忘记上帝之人的结局。
18 贫乏人不会永远被遗忘,
受苦人的希望也不会一直落空。
19 耶和华啊,求你起来,
别让人向你夸胜,
愿你审判列邦。
20 耶和华啊,
求你使列邦恐惧战抖,
让他们明白自己不过是人。(细拉)

  1. 9:0 慕拉辨”希伯来文的意思是“丧子”。

[a] To the director: Use the Alamoth of Ben.[b] A song of David.

I will praise you, Lord, with all my heart.
    I will tell about the wonderful things you have done.
You make me happy, so I will rejoice in you.
    God Most High, I praise your name.
My enemies turned to run from you,
    but they fell and were destroyed.

You listened to me from your throne like a good judge,
    and you decided that I was right.
You told the nations how wrong they were.
    You destroyed those evil people.
    You erased their names from our memory forever and ever.
The enemy is finished!
    You destroyed their cities.
    There is nothing left to remind us of them.

The Lord set up his throne to bring justice,
    and he will rule forever.
He judges everyone on earth fairly.
    He judges all nations honestly.
Many people are suffering—
    crushed by the weight of their troubles.
But the Lord is a refuge for them,
    a safe place they can run to.

10 Lord, those who know your name
    come to you for protection.
And when they come,
    you do not leave them without help.

11 Sing praises to the Lord, who sits as King in Zion.[c]
    Tell the nations about the great things he has done.
12 He punishes murderers
    and remembers those who are in need.
When suffering people cry for help,
    he does not ignore them.

13 I said this prayer: “Lord, be kind to me.
    See how my enemies are hurting me.
    Save me from the ‘gates of death.’
14 Then, at the gates of Jerusalem,[d] I can sing praises to you.
    I will be so happy because you saved me.”

15 Those other nations have fallen into the pit they dug to catch others.
    They have been caught in their own trap.
16 The Lord showed that he judges fairly.
    The wicked were caught by what they did to hurt others. Higgayon[e] Selah

17 The wicked will go to the place of death,
    as will all the nations that forget God.
18 It may seem that those who are poor and needy have been forgotten,
    but God will not forget them.
    He will not leave them without hope.

19 Lord, get up[f] and judge the nations.
    Don’t let anyone think they can win against you.
20 Teach them a lesson, Lord.
    Let them know they are only human. Selah
