詩篇 28

1 ああヱホバよわれ汝をよばん わが磐よねがはくは我にむかひて暗唖となりたまふなかれ なんぢ默したまはば恐らくはわれ墓にいるものとひとしからん

Of David. Unto you, O Lord, do I cry; my rock, be not deaf to me: lest, through holding your peace, I become like those who go down to the pit.

2 われ汝にむかひてさけび聖所の奧にむかひて手をあぐるときわが懇求のこゑをききたまへ

Hear my loud entreaty, as I cry for help to you, lifting my hands, O Lord, towards your holy chancel.

3 あしき人また邪曲をおこなふ者とともに我をとらへてひきゆき給ふなかれ かれらはその隣にやはらぎをかたれども心には殘害をいだけり

Take me not off with the wicked, nor with the workers of wrong, whose speech to their neighbours is friendly, while evil is in their heart.

4 その事にしたがひそのなす惡にしたがひて彼等にあたへ その手の行爲にしたがひて與へこれにその受べきものを報いたまへ

Give them as they have done, as their wicked deeds deserve. As their hands have wrought, so give to them: requite to them their deserts.

5 かれらはヱホバのもろもろの事とその手のなしわざとをかへりみず この故にヱホバかれらを毀ちて建たまふことなからん

They are blind to all that the Lord does, to all that his hands have wrought; and so he will tear them down, to build them up no more.

6 ヱホバは讃べきかな わが祈のこゑをききたまひたり

Blest be the Lord, who has heard my voice as I plead for mercy.

7 ヱホバはわが力わが盾なり わがこころこれに依賴みたれば我たすけをえたり 然るゆゑにわが心いたくよろこぶ われ歌をもてほめまつらん

The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him. I was helped: so my heart is exultant, and in my song I will praise him.

8 ヱホバはその民のちからなり その受膏者のすくひの城なり

The Lord is the strength of his people, the fortress who saves his anointed.

9 なんぢの民をすくひなんぢの嗣業をさきはひ且これをやしなひ之をとこしなへに懐きたすけたまへ

O save your people, and bless your inheritance. Be their shepherd and carry them forever.
