Psalms 27

1 [A Psalm] of David, before he was anointed. The Lord is my light and my Saviour; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the defender of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

ダビデの歌 ヱホバはわが光わが救なり われ誰をかおそれん ヱホバはわが生命のちからなり わが懼るべきものはたれぞや

2 When evil-doers drew near against me to eat up my flesh, my persecutors and mine enemies, they fainted and fell.

われの敵われの仇なるあしきもの襲ひきたりてわが肉をくらはんとせしが蹶きかつ仆れたり

3 Though an army should set itself in array against me, my heart shall not be afraid: though war should rise up against me, in this am I confident.

縦ひいくさびと営をつらねて我をせむるともわが心おそれじ たとひ戦ひおこりて我をせむるとも我になほ恃あり

4 One thing have I asked of the Lord, this will I earnestly seek: that I should dwell in the house of the Lord, all the days of my life, that I should behold the fair beauty of the Lord, and survey his temple.

われ一事をヱホバにこへり我これをもとむ われヱホバの美しきを仰ぎその宮をみんがためにわが世にあらん限りはヱホバの家にすまんとこそ願ふなれ

5 For in the day of mine afflictions he hid me in his tabernacle: he sheltered me in the secret of his tabernacle; he set me up on a rock.

ヱホバはなやみの日にその行宮のうちに我をひそませその幕屋のおくにわれをかくし巌のうへに我をたかく置たまふべければなり

6 And now, behold, he has lifted up mine head over mine enemies: I went round and offered in his tabernacle the sacrifice of joy; I will sing even sing psalms to the Lord.

今わが首はわれをめぐれる仇のうへに高くあげらるべし この故にわれヱホバのまくやにて歓喜のそなへものを献ん われうたひてヱホバをほめたたへん

7 Hear, O Lord, my voice which I have uttered aloud: pity me, and listen to me.

わが聲をあげてさけぶときヱホバよきき給へ また憐みてわれに應へたまへ

8 My heart said to you, I have diligently sought your face: your face, O Lord, I will seek.

なんぢらわが面をたづねもとめよと(斯る聖言のありしとき)わが心なんぢにむかひてヱホバよ我なんぢの聖顔をたづねんといへり

9 Turn not your face away from me, turn not you away from your servant in anger: be you my helper, forsake me not; and, O God my Saviour, overlook me not.

ねがはくは御顔をかくしたまふなかれ 怒りてなんぢの僕をとほざけたまふなかれ汝はわれの助なり 噫わがすくひの神よ われをおひいだし我をすてたまふなかれ

10 For my father and my mother have forsaken me, but the Lord has taken me to himself.

わが父母われをすつるともヱホバわれを迎へたまはん

11 Teach me, O Lord, in your way, and guide me in a right path, because of mine enemies.

ヱホバよなんぢの途をわれにをしへ わが仇のゆゑに我をたひらかなる途にみちびきたまへ

12 Deliver me not over to the desire of them that afflict me; for unjust witnesses have risen up against me, and injustice has lied within herself.

いつはりの證をなすもの暴厲を吐もの我にさからひて起りたてり 願くはわれを仇にわたしてその心のままに爲しめたまふなかれ

13 I believe that I shall see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.

われもしヱホバの恩寵をいけるものの地にて見るの侍なからましかば奈何ぞや

14 Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and let your heart be strengthened: yes wait on the Lord.

ヱホバを俟望ぞめ雄々しかれ汝のこころを堅うせよ 必ずやヱホバをまちのぞめ
