< 詩篇 10 >

1 耶和華啊,你為甚麼站在遠處? 在患難的時候為甚麼隱藏?
Why do thou stand afar off, O Jehovah? Why do thou hide thyself in times of trouble?
2 惡人在驕橫中把困苦人追得火急; 願他們陷在自己所設的計謀裏。
In the pride of the wicked man the poor man is hotly pursued. Let them be taken in the devices that they have conceived.
3 因為惡人以心願自誇; 貪財的背棄耶和華,並且輕慢他。
For the wicked man boasts of his heart's desire. And the greedy man renounces, yea, despises Jehovah.
4 惡人面帶驕傲,說:耶和華必不追究; 他一切所想的都以為沒有上帝。
The wicked man, in the pride of his countenance, says, He will not require it. All his thoughts are, There is no God.
5 凡他所做的,時常穩固; 你的審判超過他的眼界。 至於他一切的敵人, 他都向他們噴氣。
His ways are profane at all times. Thy judgments are far above out of his sight. As for all his adversaries, he puffs at them.
6 他心裏說:我必不動搖, 世世代代不遭災難。
He says in his heart, I shall not be moved. To all generations I shall not be in adversity.
7 他滿口是咒罵、詭詐、欺壓, 舌底是毒害、奸惡。
His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and oppression. Under his tongue is mischief and iniquity.
8 他在村莊埋伏等候; 他在隱密處殺害無辜的人。 他的眼睛窺探無倚無靠的人;
He sits in the lurking-places of the villages. In the covert places he murders the innocent man. His eyes are secretly set against the poor man.
9 他埋伏在暗地,如獅子蹲在洞中。 他埋伏,要擄去困苦人; 他拉網,就把困苦人擄去。
He lurks in secret as a lion in his covert. He lies in wait to catch the poor man. He catches the poor man when he draws him in his net.
10 他屈身蹲伏, 無倚無靠的人就倒在他爪牙 之下。
He crouches, he bows down, and helpless men fall by his strong men.
11 他心裏說:上帝竟忘記了; 他掩面永不觀看。
He says in his heart, God has forgotten. He hides his face. He will never see it.
12 耶和華啊,求你起來! 上帝啊,求你舉手,不要忘記困苦人!
Arise, O Jehovah, O God, lift up thy hand. Do not forget the poor.
13 惡人為何輕慢上帝, 心裏說:你必不追究?
Why does the wicked man despise God, and say in his heart, Thou will not require it?
14 其實你已經觀看; 因為奸惡毒害,你都看見了, 為要以手施行報應。 無倚無靠的人把自己交託你; 你向來是幫助孤兒的。
Thou have seen. For thou behold mischief and spite, to repay with thy hand. The poor man commits himself to thee. Thou have been the helper of the fatherless.
15 願你打斷惡人的膀臂; 至於壞人,願你追究他的惡,直到淨盡。
Break thou the arm of the sinner and the evil man. His wickedness shall be sought, and shall not be found.
16 耶和華永永遠遠為王; 外邦人從他的地已經滅絕了。
Jehovah is King forever and ever. The nations have perished out of his land.
17 耶和華啊,謙卑人的心願, 你早已知道。 你必預備他們的心, 也必側耳聽他們的祈求,
Jehovah, thou have heard the desire of the humble. Thou will prepare their heart, thou will cause thine ear to hear,
18 為要給孤兒和受欺壓的人伸冤, 使強橫的人不再威嚇他們。
to judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that man who is of the earth may no more be terrible.
