| 31:1 | 〔大卫的诗、交与伶长。〕耶和华阿、我投靠你.求你使我永不羞愧、凭你的公义搭救我。 | In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness. |
| 31:2 | 求你侧耳而听、快快救我、作我坚固的盘石、拯救我的保障。 | Bow down thine ear to me; deliver me speedily: be thou my strong rock, for an house of defence to save me. |
| 31:3 | 因为你是我的岩石、我的山寨.所以求你为你名的缘故、引导我、指点我。 | For thou art my rock and my fortress; therefore for thy name's sake lead me, and guide me. |
| 31:4 | 求你救我脱离人为我暗设的网罗.因为你是我的保障。 | Pull me out of the net that they have laid privily for me: for thou art my strength. |
| 31:5 | 我将我的灵魂交在你手里.耶和华诚实的 神阿、你救赎了我。 | Into thine hand I commit my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O LORD God of truth. |
| 31:6 | 我恨恶那信奉虚无之神的人.我却倚靠耶和华。 | I have hated them that regard lying vanities: but I trust in the LORD. |
| 31:7 | 我要为你的慈爱高兴欢喜.因为你见过我的困苦、知道我心中的艰难。 | I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy: for thou hast considered my trouble; thou hast known my soul in adversities; |
| 31:8 | 你未曾把我交在仇敌手里.你使我的脚站在宽阔之处。 | And hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a large room. |
| 31:9 | 耶和华阿、求你怜恤我、因为我在急难之中.我的眼睛因忧愁而干瘪、连我的身心、也不安舒。 | Have mercy upon me, O LORD, for I am in trouble: mine eye is consumed with grief, yea, my soul and my belly. |
| 31:10 | 我的生命为愁苦所消耗.我的年岁为叹息所旷废.我的力量因我的罪孽衰败.我的骨头也枯干。 | For my life is spent with grief, and my years with sighing: my strength faileth because of mine iniquity, and my bones are consumed. |
| 31:11 | 我因一切敌人成了羞辱、在我的邻舍跟前更甚.那认识我的都惧怕我.在外头看见我的都躲避我。 | I was a reproach among all mine enemies, but especially among my neighbours, and a fear to mine acquaintance: they that did see me without fled from me. |
| 31:12 | 我被人忘记、如同死人、无人记念.我好像破碎的器皿。 | I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel. |
| 31:13 | 我听见了许多人的谗谤、四围都是惊吓.他们一同商议攻击我的时候、就图谋要害我的性命。 | For I have heard the slander of many: fear was on every side: while they took counsel together against me, they devised to take away my life. |
| 31:14 | 耶和华阿、我仍旧倚靠你.我说、你是我的 神。 | But I trusted in thee, O LORD: I said, Thou art my God. |
| 31:15 | 我终身的事在你手中.求你救我脱离仇敌的手、和那些逼迫我的人。 | My times are in thy hand: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me. |
| 31:16 | 求你使你的脸光照仆人、凭你的慈爱拯救我。 | Make thy face to shine upon thy servant: save me for thy mercies' sake. |
| 31:17 | 耶和华阿、求你叫我不至羞愧.因为我曾呼吁你.求你使恶人羞愧、使他们在阴间缄默无声。 | Let me not be ashamed, O LORD; for I have called upon thee: let the wicked be ashamed, and let them be silent in the grave. |
| 31:18 | 那撒谎的人、逞骄傲轻慢、出狂妄的话攻击义人.愿他的嘴哑而无言。 | Let the lying lips be put to silence; which speak grievous things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous. |
| 31:19 | 敬畏你投靠你的人、你为他们所积存的、在世人面前所施行的恩惠、是何等大呢。 | Oh how great is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee; which thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee before the sons of men! |
| 31:20 | 你必把他们藏在你面前的隐密处、免得遇见人的计谋.你必暗暗地保守他们在亭子里、免受口舌的争闹。 | Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of man: thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues. |
| 31:21 | 耶和华是应当称颂的.因为他在坚固城里、向我施展奇妙的慈爱。 | Blessed be the LORD: for he hath shewed me his marvellous kindness in a strong city. |
| 31:22 | 至于我、我曾急促的说、我从你眼前被隔绝.然而、我呼求你的时候、你仍听我恳求的声音。 | For I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes: nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried unto thee. |
| 31:23 | 耶和华的圣民哪、你们都要爱他.耶和华保护诚实人、足足报应行事骄傲的人。 | O love the LORD, all ye his saints: for the LORD preserveth the faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer. |
| 31:24 | 凡仰望耶和华的人、你们都要壮胆、坚固你们的心。 | Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the LORD. |
