诗篇 63
1 大卫在犹大旷野的时候，作了这诗。 神啊，你是我的 神， 我要切切地寻求你， 在干旱疲乏无水之地，我渴想你； 我的心切慕你。
God, you are the God whom I [worship]. I greatly desire to be with you like [SIL] a person in a dry hot desert greatly desires [some cool water].
2 我在圣所中曾如此瞻仰你， 为要见你的能力和你的荣耀。
So, I want to see you in your temple; I want to see that you are great and glorious.
3 因你的慈爱比生命更好， 我的嘴唇要颂赞你。
Your constantly loving [me] is (worth more/more precious) than [my] life, so I [MTY] will [always] praise you.
4 我还活的时候要这样称颂你； 我要奉你的名举手。
I will praise you all the time that I live; I will lift up my hands to you while I pray.
5 我在床上记念你， 在夜更的时候思想你； 我的心就像饱足了骨髓肥油， 我也要以欢乐的嘴唇赞美你。
[Knowing you satisfies me more than] [IDM, MET] my eating a very big feast, [so] I will praise you while I sing [MTY] joyful songs.
While I lie on my bed, I think about you. I think/meditate about you all during the night,
7 因为你曾帮助我， 我就在你翅膀的荫下欢呼。
because you have always helped me, and I sing joyfully knowing that I am protected by you [as a little bird is protected] under [its mother’s] wings [MET].
8 我心紧紧地跟随你； 你的右手扶持我。
I cling to you; and with your hand/power you protect me.
9 但那些寻索要灭我命的人 必往地底下去；
But those who are trying to kill me will [die and] descend into the place of the dead;
10 他们必被刀剑所杀， 被野狗所吃。
they will be killed in battles [MTY] and their [corpses] will be eaten by jackals/wild dogs.
11 但是王必因 神欢喜。 凡指着他发誓的必要夸口， 因为说谎之人的口必被塞住。
But I, the king [of Israel], will rejoice in what God has done; and all those who revere and trust God will praise him, but he will not allow liars to say anything.
