< Psalms 35 >

1 Yahweh, fight against those who fight against me! Fight against [my enemies] when they fight me!
ダビデのうた ヱホバよねがはくは我にあらそふ者とあらそひ我とたたかふものと戦ひたまへ
2 Be [like] a shield [DOU] to protect me and come to help me!
干と大盾とをとりてわが援にたちいでたまへ
3 Lift up your spear [DOU] and [throw it] at those who pursue me! Promise me that you will enable me to defeat [my enemies].
戟をぬきいだしたまひて我におひせまるものの途をふさぎ且わが霊魂にわれはなんぢの救なりといひたまへ
4 Cause those who are trying to kill me to be defeated and disgraced! Cause those who are planning to do evil things to me to be pushed back and become confused!
願くはわが霊魂をたづぬるものの恥をえていやしめられ 我をそこなはんと謀るものの退けられて惶てためかんことを
5 Send your angel to pursue them, and as a result cause them to disappear like chaff/straw blown away by the wind!
ねがはくはかれらが風のまへなる粃糠のごとくなりヱホバの使者におひやられんことを
6 Cause the path on which they run to be dark and slippery as your angel pursues them!
願くはかれらの途をくらくし滑らかにしヱホバの使者にかれらを追ゆかしめたまはんことを
7 Although I did not do anything wrong to them, they concealed a deep pit for me to fall into; they hid a net in which they would catch me.
かれらは故なく我をとらへんとて網をあなにふせ 故なくわが霊魂をそこなはんとて阱をうがちたればなり
8 Cause them to suddenly experience disaster! Cause them to be trapped in their own nets! Cause them to fall into the pits that they have dug for me and disappear!
願くはかれらが思ひよらぬ間にほろびきたり己がふせたる網にとらへられ自らその滅におちいらんことを
9 Then I will be joyful about what you, Yahweh, have done for me, I will be glad that you have rescued me.
然ときわが霊魂はヱホバによりてよろこび その救をもて樂しまん
10 With my whole inner being [SYN] I will say, “There is no one like Yahweh [RHQ]! No one else can rescue helpless people from powerful people [RHQ]. No one else can rescue weak and needy people from those who want to rob them.”
わがすべての骨はいはん ヱホバよ汝はくるしむものを之にまさりて力つよきものより並くるしむもの貧しきものを掠めうばふ者よりたすけいだし給ふ 誰かなんぢに比ふべき者あらんと
11 People who tell lies stand in court and falsely accuse me of doing things that I do not know [anything] about.
こころあしき證人おこりてわが知ざることを詰りとふ
12 In return for my doing good things for them, they do evil things to me, with the result that I feel that I am alone.
かれらは惡をもてわが善にむくい我がたましひを依仗なきものとせり
13 When they were ill, I showed that I was sad. I did not eat any food, and I bowed my head as I prayed [for them].
然どわれかれらが病しときには麁服をつけ糧をたちてわが霊魂をくるしめたり わが祈はふところにかへれり
14 I mourned and bowed my head as I prayed as though it was a friend or my mother for whom I was grieving.
わがかれに作ることはわが友わが兄弟にことならず母の喪にありて痛哭がごとく哀しみうなたれたり
15 But when I had troubles, they were all happy about it. They gathered around to make fun of me. Strangers struck me, and they would not stop.
然どかれらはわが倒れんとせしとき喜びつどひわが知ざりしとき匪類あつまりきたりて我をせめ われを裂てやめざりき
16 Worthless people ridicule me and snarl at me.
かれらは洒宴にて穢きことをのぶる嘲笑者のごとく我にむかひて歯をかみならせり
17 Yahweh, how long will you only watch them doing this? Rescue me from their attacking me; Save me from being killed by these men who are attacking me like [MET] lions [that are attacking other animals]
主よいたづらに見るのみにして幾何時をへたまふや 願くはわがたましひの彼等にほろぼさるるを脱れしめ わが生命をわかき獅よりまぬかれしめたまへ
18 Then, when many of your people gather, I will praise you and I will thank you in front of all of them.
われ大なる會にありてなんぢに感謝し おほくの民のなかにて汝をほめたたへん
19 Do not allow my enemies, who tell lies about me, defeat me and then rejoice! Do not allow those who hate me when there in no reason to hate me to (smirk/smile happily)!
虚偽をもてわれに仇するもののわが故によろこぶことを容したまなかれ 故なくして我をにくむ者のたがひに眴せすることなからしめたまへ
20 They do not talk peacefully to people; instead, they seek ways to tell lies about people who are peaceful.
かれらは平安をかたらず あざむきの言をつくりまうけて國内におだやかにすまふ者をそこなはんと謀る
21 They shout at me, to accuse me, saying, “We saw the wrong things that you did!”
然のみならず我にむかひて口をあけひろげ ああ視よや視よやわれらの眼これをみたりといへり
22 Yahweh, you have seen these things, so do not be silent! Do not stay far from me!
ヱホバよ汝すでにこれを視たまへり ねがはくは黙したまふなかれ主よわれに遠ざかりたまふなかれ
23 Arise, my God, and plead my case in court, and successfully defend me!
わが神よわが主よ おきたまへ醒たまへ ねがはくはわがために審判をなしわが訟ををさめたまへ
24 Yahweh, my God, because you are righteous, prove that I am innocent in order that my enemies will not be able to gloat [that I was judged to be guilty].
わが神ヱホバよなんぢの義にしたがひて我をさばきたまへ わが事によりてかれらに歓喜をえしめたまふなかれ
25 Do not allow them to be able to say to themselves, “Yes, we have gotten rid of him [IDM] just like we desired!”
かれらにその心裡にて ああここちよきかな観よこれわが願ひしところなりといはしめたまふなかれ 又われらかれを呑つくせりといはしめたまふなかれ
26 Cause those who rejoice about my misfortunes to be completely defeated and disgraced; cause those who boast that they are much greater than me to be disgraced and dishonored!
願くはわが害なはるるを喜ぶもの皆はぢて惶てふためき 我にむかひてはこりかに高ぶるものの愧とはづかしめとを衣んことを
27 But cause those who desire that I be acquitted to be happy and shout joyfully, and cause them to continually say, “Yahweh is great! He is delighted to cause things to go well for those who serve him.”
わが義をよみする者をばよろこび謳はしめ大なるかなヱホバその僕のさいはひを悦びたまふと恒にいはしめたまへ
28 Then I will proclaim that you act righteously, and I will praise you all day long.
わが舌は終日なんぢの義となんぢの誉とをかたらん
