Psalms 1 1 For the leader, for Jeduthun. A psalm of David. 达味诗歌，交与乐官耶杜通。 2 I said, ＂I will watch my ways, lest I sin with my tongue; I will set a curb on my mouth.＂ 我已决定：＂我要谨遵我的道路，免得我以口舌犯罪，当恶人在我面前时，我以口罩笼住我嘴。＂ 3 Dumb and silent before the wicked, I refrained from any speech. But my sorrow increased; 我默不作声，以免口出恶语，但我的痛楚，更因此而加剧。 4 my heart smoldered within me. In my thoughts a fire blazed up, and I broke into speech: 我的心在腔内滚滚沸腾，我愈沉思愈觉得烈火如焚；我的舌头便不耐烦地说： 5 LORD, let me know my end, the number of my days, that I may learn how frail I am. ＂上主，我恳求你明白启示我：我的终期和寿数究有几何，好使我知道我是何等脆弱。＂ 6 You have given my days a very short span; my life is as nothing before you. All mortals are but a breath. Selah 看，你使我的岁月屈指可数，我的生命在你前算是虚无。世人的生存，只是一口呵嘘。 7 Mere phantoms, we go our way; mere vapor, our restless pursuits; we heap up stores without knowing for whom. 人生实如泡影，只是白白操劳，他们所有积蓄不知谁来得到。 8 And now, Lord, what future do I have? You are my only hope. 我主，现今我还有什么希望？我的希望寄托在你的身上！ 9 From all my sins deliver me; let me not be the taunt of fools. 10 I was silent and did not open my mouth because you were the one who did this. 我静默不言，有口不开，因为这事是由你安排。 11 Take your plague away from me; I am ravaged by the touch of your hand. 求你由我身上除去这场灾患，因你手的打击，我已消瘦不堪。 12 You rebuke our guilt and chasten us; you dissolve all we prize like a cobweb. All mortals are but a breath. Selah 你为了罚罪而把世人惩治，你象蛀虫将他的珍宝侵蚀；至于人，不过只是一口气。 13 Listen to my prayer, LORD, hear my cry; do not be deaf to my weeping! I sojourn with you like a passing stranger, a guest, like all my ancestors. 上主，求你俯听我的祈祷，求你侧耳静听我的哀告，莫要作聋不听我的哭号。因为我在你前只是旅客，如我列祖一样只是路过。 14 Turn your gaze from me, that I may find peace before I depart to be no more. 求你转移你的目光，不要怒视我，使我一去不返之前，能得享安乐。 Footnotes（注解） 1 [Psalm 39] The lament of a mortally ill person who at first had resolved to remain silently submissive (Psalm 39:2-4). But the grief was too much and now the psalmist laments the brevity and vanity of life (Psalm 39:5-7), yet remaining hopeful (Psalm 39:8-10). The psalmist continues to express both acceptance of the illness and hope for healing in Psalm 39:11-13. |
