Psalms 64

1 For the end, a Psalm of David. Hear my prayer, O God, when I make my petition to you; deliver my soul 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 You have sheltered me from the conspiracy of them that do wickedly; from the multitude of them that work 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 tongues as a sword; they have bent their bow maliciously;

他們磨舌如刀， 發出苦毒的言語，好像比準了的箭，

4 to shoot in secret at the blameless; they will shoot him suddenly, and will not fear.

要在暗地射完全人； 他們忽然射他，並不懼怕。

5 They have set up for themselves an evil matter, they have given counsel to hide snares; they have said, Who shall 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 have searched out iniquity; they have wearied themselves with searching diligently, a man shall approach and the 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 and God shall be exalted, their wounds were [caused by] the weapon of the foolish children,

但上帝要射他們； 他們忽然被箭射傷。

8 and their tongues have set him at nothing, all that saw them were troubled;

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 every man was alarmed, and they related the works of God, and understood his deeds.

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 the Lord, and hope on him, and all the upright in heart shall be praised.

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。
