Psalms 94
1 Lord, God of vengeance, God of vengeance, shine forth.
耶和華啊，你是伸冤的上帝； 伸冤的上帝啊，求你發出光來！
2 Rise up, judge of the earth, pay back the proud what they deserve.
審判世界的主啊，求你挺身而立， 使驕傲人受應得的報應！
3 Lord, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked exult,
耶和華啊，惡人誇勝要到幾時呢？ 要到幾時呢？
4 with their blustering arrogant words, their braggart and wicked speech,
他們絮絮叨叨說傲慢的話； 一切作孽的人都自己誇張。
5 crushing your people, Lord, and afflicting your heritage,
耶和華啊，他們強壓你的百姓， 苦害你的產業。
6 murdering widows and strangers, slaying the fatherless?
他們殺死寡婦和寄居的， 又殺害孤兒。
7 They think that the Lord does not see, nor the God of Jacob regard it.
他們說：耶和華必不看見； 雅各的上帝必不思念。
8 Take heed, you dullest of people; when will you be wise, you fools?
你們民間的畜類人當思想； 你們愚頑人到幾時才有智慧呢？
9 Is he deaf, who shaped the ear? Is he blind, who fashioned the eye?
造耳朵的，難道自己不聽見嗎？ 造眼睛的，難道自己不看見嗎？
10 Can he who trains nations not punish them he who teaches knowledge to people?
管教列邦的，就是叫人得知識的， 難道自己不懲治人嗎？
11 The Lord knows the thoughts of people, that only a breath are they.
耶和華知道人的意念是虛妄的。
12 Happy are those whom you chasten, and teach out of your law,
耶和華啊，你所管教、 用律法所教訓的人是有福的！
13 keeping them calm in the day of misfortune, till a pit be dug for the wicked.
你使他在遭難的日子得享平安； 惟有惡人陷在所挖的坑中。
14 For the Lord will not leave his people, he will not forsake his inheritance.
因為耶和華必不丟棄他的百姓， 也不離棄他的產業。
15 For the righteous shall come to their rights, and all true-hearted people shall follow them.
審判要轉向公義； 心裏正直的，必都隨從。
16 Who will rise up for me against those who do evil? Who will stand up for me against workers of wrong?
誰肯為我起來攻擊作惡的？ 誰肯為我站起抵擋作孽的？
17 Were it not for the help of the Lord, I would soon have gone to the silent grave.
若不是耶和華幫助我， 我就住在寂靜之中了。
18 When I thought that my foot was slipping, your kindness, Lord, held me up.
我正說我失了腳， 耶和華啊，那時你的慈愛扶助我。
19 When with cares my heart was crowded, your comforts make me glad.
我心裏多憂多疑， 你安慰我，就使我歡樂。
20 Can corrupt justice be your ally, framing mischief by statute?
那藉着律例架弄殘害、 在位上行奸惡的，豈能與你相交嗎？
21 They assail the life of the righteous, and innocent blood condemn.
他們大家聚集攻擊義人， 將無辜的人定為死罪。
22 But the Lord is my sure retreat, my God is the rock of my refuge.
但耶和華向來作了我的高臺； 我的上帝作了我投靠的磐石。
23 He will bring back their sin upon them, for their wickedness he will destroy them; the Lord our God will destroy them.
他叫他們的罪孽歸到他們身上。 他們正在行惡之中，他要剪除他們； 耶和華－我們的上帝要把他們剪除。
