< Psalms 141 >

1 A psalm of David. Lord, I'm calling out to you! Please hurry up and help me! Please listen to me when I cry out to you!
ヱホバよ我なんぢを呼ふ ねがはくは速かにわれにきたりたまへ われ汝をよばふときわが聲に耳をかたぶけたまへ
2 May my prayer be like incense before you, my uplifted hands like an evening offering.
われは薫物のごとくにわが祈をみまへにささげ 夕のそなへものの如くにわが手をあげて聖前にささげんことをねがふ
3 Lord, make sure I don't say anything I shouldn't—keep a watch over my conversations.
ヱホバよねがはくはわが口に門守をおきて わがくちびるの戸をまもりたまへ
4 Don't let me think about evil things or take part in doing anything wrong with wicked people. I won't join in eating fancy food at their feasts.
惡事にわがこころを傾かしめて邪曲をおこなふ者とともに惡きわざにあづからしめ給ふなかれ 又かれらの珍饈をくらはしめたまふなかれ
5 Let a good person punish me in love—let them correct me. It will be like an anointing—I won't refuse it. But I still pray against those who do evil.
義者われをうつとも我はこれを愛しみとしその我をせむるを頭のあぶらとせん わが頭はこれを辭まず かれらが禍害にあふときもわが祈はたえじ
6 They shall be thrown down by the power of the rock that judges them, and then they will recognize what I said was true!
その審士ははほの崕になげられん かれらわがことばの甘美によりて聽ことをすべし
7 Just as the earth is broken up by the plough, so shall their bones be scattered at the mouth of Sheol. (Sheol h7585)
人つちを耕しうがつがごとく我儕のほねははかの口にちらさる (Sheol h7585)
8 But I'm looking to you, Lord God, for I find protection in you. Don't let me die!
されど主ヱホバよわが目はなほ汝にむかふ 我なんぢに依賴めり ねがはくはわが霊魂をともしきままに捨おきたまなかれ
9 Keep me safe from the traps they have set to catch me, from the snares of evil people.
我をまもりてかれらがわがためにまうくる羂とよこしまを行ふものの機とをまぬかれしめたまへ
10 Let them fall into their own traps while I pass by unharmed.
われは全くのがれん あしきものをおのれの網におちいらしめたまへ
