Psalms 71
1 In you, LORD, I take refuge. Never let me be disappointed.
耶和华啊，我投靠你； 求你叫我永不羞愧！
2 Deliver me in your righteousness, and rescue me. Turn your ear to me, and save me.
求你凭你的公义搭救我，救拔我； 侧耳听我，拯救我！
3 Be to me a rock of refuge to which I may always go. Give the command to save me, for you are my rock and my fortress.
求你作我常住的磐石； 你已经命定要救我， 因为你是我的岩石，我的山寨。
4 Rescue me, my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.
我的 神啊，求你救我脱离恶人的手， 脱离不义和残暴之人的手。
5 For you are my hope, LORD; my confidence from my youth.
主—耶和华啊，你是我所盼望的； 从我年幼，你是我所倚靠的。
6 I have relied on you from the womb. From my mother's womb you are my strength. I will always praise you.
我从出母胎被你扶持； 使我出母腹的是你。 我必常常赞美你！
7 I am a marvel to many, but you are my strong refuge.
许多人以我为怪， 但你是我坚固的避难所。
8 My mouth shall be filled with your praise, with your honor all the day.
你的赞美，你的荣耀 终日必满了我的口。
9 Do not reject me in my old age. Do not forsake me when my strength fails.
我年老的时候，求你不要丢弃我！ 我力气衰弱的时候，求你不要离弃我！
10 For my enemies talk about me. Those who watch for my soul conspire together,
我的仇敌议论我； 那些窥探要害我命的彼此商议，
11 saying, "God has forsaken him. Pursue and take him, for no one will rescue him."
说： 神已经离弃他； 我们追赶他，捉拿他吧！ 因为没有人搭救。
12 God, do not be far from me. My God, hurry to help me.
神啊，求你不要远离我！ 我的 神啊，求你速速帮助我！
13 Let my accusers be put to shame and consumed. Let them be covered with disgrace and scorn who want to harm me.
愿那与我性命为敌的，羞愧被灭； 愿那谋害我的，受辱蒙羞。
14 But I will always hope, and will add to all of your praise.
我却要常常盼望， 并要越发赞美你。
15 My mouth will tell about your righteousness, and of your salvation all day, though I do not know its full measure.
我的口终日要述说你的公义和你的救恩， 因我不计其数。
16 I will come with the mighty acts of the Lord GOD. I will make mention of your righteousness, even of yours alone.
我要来说主—耶和华大能的事； 我单要提说你的公义。
17 God, you have taught me from my youth. Until now, I have declared your wondrous works.
神啊，自我年幼时，你就教训我； 直到如今，我传扬你奇妙的作为。
18 Yes, even when I am old and gray-haired, God, do not forsake me, until I have declared your strength to the next generation, your might to everyone who is to come.
神啊，我到年老发白的时候， 求你不要离弃我！ 等我将你的能力指示下代， 将你的大能指示后世的人。
19 Your righteousness also, God, reaches to the heavens; you have done great things. God, who is like you?
神啊，你的公义甚高； 行过大事的 神啊，谁能像你！
20 You, who have shown us many and bitter troubles, you will let me live. You will bring us up again from the depths of the earth.
你是叫我们多经历重大急难的， 必使我们复活， 从地的深处救上来。
21 Increase my honor, and comfort me again.
求你使我越发昌大， 又转来安慰我。
22 I will also praise you with the harp for your faithfulness, my God. I sing praises to you with the lyre, Holy One of Israel.
我的 神啊，我要鼓瑟称赞你， 称赞你的诚实！ 以色列的圣者啊，我要弹琴歌颂你！
23 My lips shall shout for joy. My soul, which you have redeemed, sings praises to you.
我歌颂你的时候， 我的嘴唇和你所赎我的灵魂都必欢呼；
24 My tongue will also talk about your righteousness all day long, for they are disappointed, and they are confounded, who want to harm me.
并且我的舌头必终日讲论你的公义， 因为那些谋害我的人已经蒙羞受辱了。
