Psalms

大卫的祈祷。

1耶和华啊，求你侧耳应允我， 因我是困苦穷乏的。

2求你保存我的性命，因我是虔诚人。 我的 神啊，求你拯救这倚靠你的仆人！

3主啊，求你怜悯我， 因我终日求告你。

4主啊，求你使仆人心里欢喜， 因为我的心仰望你。

5主啊，你本为良善，乐意饶恕人， 有丰盛的慈爱赐给凡求告你的人。

6耶和华啊，求你留心听我的祷告， 垂听我恳求的声音。

7我在患难之日要求告你， 因为你必应允我。

8主啊，诸神之中没有可比你的； 你的作为也无可比。

9主啊，你所造的万民都要来敬拜你； 他们也要荣耀你的名。

10因你为大，且行奇妙的事； 惟独你是 神。

11耶和华啊，求你将你的道指教我； 我要照你的真理行； 求你使我专心敬畏你的名！

12主—我的 神啊，我要一心称赞你； 我要荣耀你的名，直到永远。

13因为，你向我发的慈爱是大的； 你救了我的灵魂免入极深的阴间。

14神啊，骄傲的人起来攻击我， 又有一党强横的人寻索我的命； 他们没有将你放在眼中。

15主啊，你是有怜悯有恩典的 神， 不轻易发怒，并有丰盛的慈爱和诚实。

16求你向我转脸，怜恤我， 将你的力量赐给仆人，救你婢女的儿子。

17求你向我显出恩待我的凭据， 叫恨我的人看见便羞愧， 因为你—耶和华帮助我，安慰我。

A Prayer of David.

1Bow down thine ear, O LORD, hear me: for I am poor and needy.

2Preserve my soul; for I am holy: O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee.

3Be merciful unto me, O Lord: for I cry unto thee daily.

4Rejoice the soul of thy servant: for unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.

5For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon thee.

6Give ear, O LORD, unto my prayer; and attend to the voice of my supplications.

7In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee: for thou wilt answer me.

8Among the gods there is none like unto thee, O Lord; neither are there any works like unto thy works.

9All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee, O Lord; and shall glorify thy name.

10For thou art great, and doest wondrous things: thou art God alone.

11Teach me thy way, O LORD; I will walk in thy truth: unite my heart to fear thy name.

12I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart: and I will glorify thy name for evermore.

13For great is thy mercy toward me: and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell.

14O God, the proud are risen against me, and the assemblies of violent men have sought after my soul; and have not set thee before them.

15But thou, O Lord, art a God full of compassion, and gracious, longsuffering, and plenteous in mercy and truth.

16O turn unto me, and have mercy upon me; give thy strength unto thy servant, and save the son of thine handmaid.

17Shew me a token for good; that they which hate me may see it, and be ashamed: because thou, LORD, hast holpen me, and comforted me.
