诗篇 第69章 共150章
- 1Save me, O God, for the waters have come up to my neck.
- 2I sink in the miry depths, where there is no foothold. I have come into the deep waters; the floods engulf me.
- 3I am worn out calling for help; my throat is parched. My eyes fail, looking for my God.
- 4Those who hate me without reason outnumber the hairs of my head; many are my enemies without cause, those who seek to destroy me. I am forced to restore what I did not steal.
- 5You know my folly, O God; my guilt is not hidden from you.
- 6May those who hope in you not be disgraced because of me, O Lord, the LORD Almighty; may those who seek you not be put to shame because of me, O God of Israel.
- 7For I endure scorn for your sake, and shame covers my face.
- 8I am a stranger to my brothers, an alien to my own mother's sons;
- 9for zeal for your house consumes me, and the insults of those who insult you fall on me.
- 10When I weep and fast, I must endure scorn;
- 11when I put on sackcloth, people make sport of me.
- 12Those who sit at the gate mock me, and I am the song of the drunkards.
- 13But I pray to you, O LORD , in the time of your favor; in your great love, O God, answer me with your sure salvation.
- 14Rescue me from the mire, do not let me sink; deliver me from those who hate me, from the deep waters.
- 15Do not let the floodwaters engulf me or the depths swallow me up or the pit close its mouth over me.
- 16Answer me, O LORD , out of the goodness of your love; in your great mercy turn to me.
- 17Do not hide your face from your servant; answer me quickly, for I am in trouble.
- 18Come near and rescue me; redeem me because of my foes.
- 19You know how I am scorned, disgraced and shamed; all my enemies are before you.
- 20Scorn has broken my heart and has left me helpless; I looked for sympathy, but there was none, for comforters, but I found none.
- 21They put gall in my food and gave me vinegar for my thirst.
- 22May the table set before them become a snare; may it become retribution and a trap.
- 23May their eyes be darkened so they cannot see, and their backs be bent forever.
- 24Pour out your wrath on them; let your fierce anger overtake them.
- 25May their place be deserted; let there be no one to dwell in their tents.
- 26For they persecute those you wound and talk about the pain of those you hurt.
- 27Charge them with crime upon crime; do not let them share in your salvation.
- 28May they be blotted out of the book of life and not be listed with the righteous.
- 29I am in pain and distress; may your salvation, O God, protect me.
- 30I will praise God's name in song and glorify him with thanksgiving.
- 31This will please the LORD more than an ox, more than a bull with its horns and hoofs.
- 32The poor will see and be glad- you who seek God, may your hearts live!
- 33The LORD hears the needy and does not despise his captive people.
- 34Let heaven and earth praise him, the seas and all that move in them,
- 35for God will save Zion and rebuild the cities of Judah. Then people will settle there and possess it;
- 36the children of his servants will inherit it, and those who love his name will dwell there.
