Psalms

大卫在亚比米勒面前装疯，被他赶出去，就作这诗。

1我要时时称颂耶和华； 赞美他的话必常在我口中。

2我的心必因耶和华夸耀； 谦卑人听见就要喜乐。

3你们和我当称耶和华为大， 一同高举他的名。

4我曾寻求耶和华，他就应允我， 救我脱离了一切的恐惧。

5凡仰望他的，便有光荣； 他们的脸必不蒙羞。

6我这困苦人呼求，耶和华便垂听， 救我脱离一切患难。

7耶和华的使者在敬畏他的人四围安营， 搭救他们。

8你们要尝尝主恩的滋味，便知道他是美善； 投靠他的人有福了！

9耶和华的圣民哪，你们当敬畏他， 因敬畏他的一无所缺。

10少壮狮子还缺食忍饿， 但寻求耶和华的什么好处都不缺。

11众弟子啊，你们当来听我的话！ 我要将敬畏耶和华的道教训你们。

12有何人喜好存活， 爱慕长寿，得享美福，

13就要禁止舌头不出恶言， 嘴唇不说诡诈的话。

14要离恶行善， 寻求和睦，一心追赶。

15耶和华的眼目看顾义人； 他的耳朵听他们的呼求。

16耶和华向行恶的人变脸， 要从世上除灭他们的名号。

17义人呼求，耶和华听见了， 便救他们脱离一切患难。

18耶和华靠近伤心的人， 拯救灵性痛悔的人。

19义人多有苦难， 但耶和华救他脱离这一切，

20又保全他一身的骨头， 连一根也不折断。

21恶必害死恶人； 恨恶义人的，必被定罪。

22耶和华救赎他仆人的灵魂； 凡投靠他的，必不致定罪。

1By David, in his changing his behaviour before Abimelech, and he driveth him away, and he goeth. I do bless Jehovah at all times, Continually His praise [is] in my mouth.

2In Jehovah doth my soul boast herself, Hear do the humble and rejoice.

3Ascribe ye greatness to Jehovah with me, And we exalt His name together.

4I sought Jehovah, and He answered me, And from all my fears did deliver me.

5They looked expectingly unto Him, And they became bright, And their faces are not ashamed.

6This poor [one] called, and Jehovah heard, And from all his distresses saved him.

7A messenger of Jehovah is encamping, Round about those who fear Him, And He armeth them.

8Taste ye and see that Jehovah [is] good, O the happiness of the man who trusteth in Him.

9Fear Jehovah, ye His holy ones, For there is no lack to those fearing Him.

10Young lions have lacked and been hungry, And those seeking Jehovah lack not any good,

11Come ye, children, hearken to me, The fear of Jehovah I do teach you.

12Who [is] the man that is desiring life? Loving days to see good?

13Keep thy tongue from evil, And thy lips from speaking deceit.

14Turn aside from evil and do good, Seek peace and pursue it.

15The eyes of Jehovah [are] unto the righteous, And His ears unto their cry.

16(The face of Jehovah [is] on doers of evil, To cut off from earth their memorial.)

17They cried, and Jehovah heard, And from all their distresses delivered them.

18Near [is] Jehovah to the broken of heart, And the bruised of spirit He saveth.

19Many [are] the evils of the righteous, Out of them all doth Jehovah deliver him.

20He is keeping all his bones, One of them hath not been broken.

21Evil doth put to death the wicked, And those hating the righteous are desolate.

22Jehovah redeemeth the soul of His servants, And none trusting in Him are desolate!
