Psalms

亚萨的诗歌。

1神啊，求你不要静默！ 神啊，求你不要闭口，也不要不作声！

2因为你的仇敌喧嚷， 恨你的抬起头来。

3他们同谋奸诈要害你的百姓， 彼此商议要害你所隐藏的人。

4他们说：来吧，我们将他们剪灭， 使他们不再成国！ 使以色列的名不再被人记念！

5他们同心商议， 彼此结盟，要抵挡你，

6就是住帐棚的以东人和以实玛利人， 摩押和夏甲人，

7迦巴勒、亚扪， 和亚玛力、非利士并泰尔的居民。

8亚述也与他们连合； 他们作罗得子孙的帮手。 （细拉）

9求你待他们，如待米甸， 如在基顺河待西西拉和耶宾一样。

10他们在隐·多珥灭亡， 成了地上的粪土。

11求你叫他们的首领像俄立和西伊伯， 叫他们的王子都像西巴和撒慕拿。

12他们说：我们要得 神的住处， 作为自己的产业。

13我的 神啊，求你叫他们像旋风的尘土， 像风前的碎秸。

14火怎样焚烧树林， 火焰怎样烧着山岭，

15求你也照样用狂风追赶他们， 用暴雨恐吓他们。

16愿你使他们满面羞耻， 好叫他们寻求你—耶和华的名！

17愿他们永远羞愧惊惶！ 愿他们惭愧灭亡！

18使他们知道：惟独你— 名为耶和华的—是全地以上的至高者！

A song. A Psalm of Asaph.

1O God, be not silent; be not speechless;be not still, O God.

2See how Your enemies rage,how Your foes have reared their heads.

3With cunning they scheme against Your peopleand conspire against those You cherish,

4saying, “Come, let us erase them as a nation;may the name of Israel be remembered no more.”

5For with one mind they plot together;they form an alliance against You—

6the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites,of Moab and the Hagrites,

7of Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek,of Philistia with the people of Tyre.

8Even Assyria has joined them,lending strength to the sons of Lot.Selah

9Do to them as You did to Midian,as to Sisera and Jabin at the River Kishon,

10who perished at Endorand became like dung on the ground.

11Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb,and all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,

12who said, “Let us possess for ourselvesthe pastures of God.”

13Make them like tumbleweed, O my God,like chaff before the wind.

14As fire consumes a forest,as a flame sets the mountains ablaze,

15so pursue them with Your tempest,and terrify them with Your storm.

16Cover their faces with shame,that they may seek Your name, O LORD.

17May they be ever ashamed and terrified;may they perish in disgrace.

18May they know that You alone,whose name is the LORD, are Most High over all the earth.
