Psalms 64

1 To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David. Hear, O God, my voice in my plaint; preserve my life from fear of the enemy:

大衛的詩，交與伶長。 上帝啊，我哀歎的時候，求你聽我的聲音！ 求你保護我的性命，不受仇敵的驚恐！

2 Hide me from the secret counsel of evil-doers, from the tumultuous crowd of the workers of iniquity,

求你把我隱藏， 使我脫離作惡之人的暗謀和作孽之人的擾亂。

3 Who have sharpened their tongue like a sword, [and] have aimed their arrow, a bitter word;

他們磨舌如刀， 發出苦毒的言語，好像比準了的箭，

4 That they may shoot in secret at the perfect: suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.

要在暗地射完全人； 他們忽然射他，並不懼怕。

5 They encourage themselves in an evil matter, they concert to hide snares; they say, Who will see them?

他們彼此勉勵設下惡計； 他們商量暗設網羅， 說：誰能看見？

6 They devise iniquities: We have it ready, the plan is diligently sought out. And each one's inward [thought] and heart is deep.

他們圖謀奸惡， 說：我們是極力圖謀的。 他們各人的意念心思是深的。

7 But God will shoot an arrow at them: suddenly are they wounded;

但上帝要射他們； 他們忽然被箭射傷。

8 By their own tongue they are made to fall over one another: all that see them shall flee away.

他們必然絆跌，被自己的舌頭所害； 凡看見他們的必都搖頭。

9 And all men shall fear, and shall declare God's doing; and they shall wisely consider his work.

眾人都要害怕， 要傳揚上帝的工作， 並且明白他的作為。

10 The righteous shall rejoice in Jehovah, and trust in him; and all the upright in heart shall glory.

義人必因耶和華歡喜， 並要投靠他； 凡心裏正直的人都要誇口。
