Psalms

（大衛在獻殿的時候，作這詩歌。）耶和華啊，我要尊崇你，因為你曾提拔我，不叫仇敵向我誇耀。

[A Psalm {and} Song {at} the dedication of the house of David.] I will extol thee, O LORD; for thou hast lifted me up, and hast not made my foes to rejoice over me.

耶和華─我的神啊，我曾呼求你，你醫治了我。

O LORD my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me.

耶和華啊，你曾把我的靈魂從陰間救上來，使我存活，不至於下坑。

O LORD, thou hast brought up my soul from the grave: thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.

耶和華的聖民哪，你們要歌頌他，稱讚他可記念的聖名。

Sing unto the LORD, O ye saints of his, and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness. {at...: or, to the memorial}

因為，他的怒氣不過是轉眼之間；他的恩典乃是一生之久。一宿雖然有哭泣，早晨便必歡呼。

For his anger {endureth but} a moment; in his favour {is} life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy {cometh} in the morning. {his anger...: Heb. there is but a moment in his anger} {for a night: Heb. in the evening} {joy: Heb. singing}

至於我，我凡事平順便說：我永不動搖。

And in my prosperity I said, I shall never be moved.

耶和華啊，你曾施恩，叫我的江山穩固；你掩了面，我就驚惶。

LORD, by thy favour thou hast made my mountain to stand strong: thou didst hide thy face, {and} I was troubled. {made...: Heb. settled strength for my mountain}

耶和華啊，我曾求告你；我向耶和華懇求，說：

I cried to thee, O LORD; and unto the LORD I made supplication.

我被害流血，下到坑中，有甚麼益處呢？塵土豈能稱讚你，傳說你的誠實麼？

What profit {is there} in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth?

耶和華啊，求你應允我，憐恤我！耶和華啊，求你幫助我！

Hear, O LORD, and have mercy upon me: LORD, be thou my helper.

你已將我的哀哭變為跳舞，將我的麻衣脫去，給我披上喜樂，

Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;

好叫我的靈（原文是榮耀）歌頌你，並不住聲。耶和華─我的神啊，我要稱謝你，直到永遠！

To the end that {my} glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever. {my glory: that is, my tongue, or, my soul}
