Thi Thiên

For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.

1Hear my voice, God, in my complaint.Preserve my life from fear of the enemy.

2Hide me from the conspiracy of the wicked,from the noisy crowd of the ones doing evil;

3who sharpen their tongue like a sword,and aim their arrows, deadly words,

4to shoot innocent men from ambushes. They shoot at him suddenly and fearlessly.

5They encourage themselves in evil plans.They talk about laying snares secretly. They say, “Who will see them?”

6They plot injustice, saying, “We have made a perfect plan!”Surely man’s mind and heart are cunning.

7But God will shoot at them.They will be suddenly struck down with an arrow.

8Their own tongues shall ruin them.All who see them will shake their heads.

9All mankind shall be afraid.They shall declare the work of God, and shall wisely ponder what he has done.

10The righteous shall be glad in the LORD,and shall take refuge in him. All the upright in heart shall praise him!

大卫的诗，交与伶长。

1神啊，我哀叹的时候，求你听我的声音！ 求你保护我的性命，不受仇敌的惊恐！

2求你把我隐藏， 使我脱离作恶之人的暗谋和作孽之人的扰乱。

3他们磨舌如刀， 发出苦毒的言语，好像比准了的箭，

4要在暗地射完全人； 他们忽然射他，并不惧怕。

5他们彼此勉励设下恶计； 他们商量暗设网罗， 说：谁能看见？

6他们图谋奸恶， 说：我们是极力图谋的。 他们各人的意念心思是深的。

7但 神要射他们； 他们忽然被箭射伤。

8他们必然绊跌，被自己的舌头所害； 凡看见他们的必都摇头。

9众人都要害怕， 要传扬 神的工作， 并且明白他的作为。

10义人必因耶和华欢喜，并要投靠他； 凡心里正直的人都要夸口。
