1 神是人自幼到老的倚靠耶和華啊！我投靠你，求你使我永不羞愧。
1In you, Yahweh, I take refuge. Never let me be disappointed.
2求你按著你的公義搭救我，救贖我；求你留心聽我，拯救我。
2Deliver me in your righteousness, and rescue me. Turn your ear to me, and save me.
3求你作我避難的磐石，使我可以常來投靠；你已經下令救我，因為你是我的巖石、我的堅壘。
3Be to me a rock of refuge to which I may always go. Give the command to save me, for you are my rock and my fortress.
4我的 神啊！求你救我脫離惡人的手，脫離邪惡和殘暴的人的掌握，
4Rescue me, my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.
5因為你是我的盼望；主耶和華啊！你是我自幼以來所倚靠的。
5For you are my hope, Lord Yahweh; my confidence from my youth.
6我自出母胎就倚賴你，把我從母腹中領出來的就是你，我要常常讚美你。
6I have relied on you from the womb. You are he who took me out of my mother’s womb. I will always praise you.
7眾人都以我為怪，但你是我堅固的避難所。
7I am a marvel to many, but you are my strong refuge.
8我要滿口讚美你，我終日頌揚你的榮美。
8My mouth shall be filled with your praise, with your honor all the day.
9我年老的時候，求你不要丟棄我；我氣力衰弱的時候，求你不要離棄我。
9Don’t reject me in my old age. Don’t forsake me when my strength fails.
10因為我的仇敵議論我；那些窺探著要害我性命的，一同商議，
10For my enemies talk about me. Those who watch for my soul conspire together,
11說：“ 神已經離棄了他，你們追趕他，拿住他吧！因為沒有人搭救他。”
11saying, “God has forsaken him. Pursue and take him, for no one will rescue him.”
12 神啊！求你不要遠離我；我的 神啊！求你快來幫助我。
12God, don’t be far from me. My God, hurry to help me.
13願那些控告我的，都羞愧滅亡；願那些謀求害我的，都蒙羞受辱。
13Let my accusers be disappointed and consumed. Let them be covered with disgrace and scorn who want to harm me.
14至於我，我要常常仰望你，要多多讚美你。
14But I will always hope, and will add to all of your praise.
15我的口要述說你的公義，終日講述你的救恩，儘管我不知道它們的數量。
15My mouth will tell about your righteousness, and of your salvation all day, though I don’t know its full measure.
16我要來述說主耶和華大能的事；我要提說你獨有的公義。
16I will come with the mighty acts of the Lord Yahweh. I will make mention of your righteousness, even of yours alone.
17 神啊！我自幼以來，你就教導我；直到現在，我還是宣揚你奇妙的作為。
17God, you have taught me from my youth. Until now, I have declared your wondrous works.
18 神啊！到我年老髮白的時候，求你仍不要離棄我，等我把你的能力向下一代傳揚，把你的大能向後世所有的人傳揚。
18Yes, even when I am old and gray-haired, God, don’t forsake me, until I have declared your strength to the next generation, your might to everyone who is to come.
19 神啊！你的公義達到高天，你曾經行過大事， 神啊！有誰像你呢？
19Your righteousness also, God, reaches to the heavens; you have done great things. God, who is like you?
20你使我們經歷了很多苦難，你必使我們再活過來，你必把我們從地的深處救上來。
20You, who have shown us many and bitter troubles, you will let me live. You will bring us up again from the depths of the earth.
21你必增加我的尊榮，並轉過來安慰我。
21Increase my honor, and comfort me again.
22我的 神啊！我要彈琴稱讚你，稱讚你的信實；以色列的聖者啊！我要鼓瑟歌頌你。
22I will also praise you with the harp for your faithfulness, my God. I sing praises to you with the lyre, Holy One of Israel.
23我歌頌你的時候，我的嘴唇要歡呼；我的靈魂，就是你所救贖的，也要歡呼。
23My lips shall shout for joy! My soul, which you have redeemed, sings praises to you!
24我的舌頭也要終日講述你的公義，因為那些謀求害我的人已經蒙羞受辱了。
24My tongue will also talk about your righteousness all day long, for they are disappointed, and they are confounded, who want to harm me.
