¹大卫的金诗，交给诗班长，调用“远方无声鸽”，是大卫在迦特被非利士人捉住时作的。　神啊！求你恩待我，因为人要践踏我；他们终日攻击我，迫害我。

¹Be merciful unto me, O God: for man would swallow me up; he fighting daily oppresseth me.

²我的仇敌终日践踏我，攻击我的人很多。

²Mine enemies would daily swallow me up: for they be many that fight against me, O thou most High.

³至高者（“至高者”原文放在第2节末，在那里或译：“因逞骄傲攻击我的人很多”）啊！我惧怕的时候，就要倚靠你。

³What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.

⁴靠着　神，我要赞美他的话；我倚靠　神，就必不惧怕，人能把我怎么样呢？

⁴In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me.

⁵他们终日歪曲我的话，常常设计谋陷害我。

⁵Every day they wrest my words: all their thoughts are against me for evil.

⁶他们聚集在一起，埋伏着，窥探我的脚踪，等候要害我的性命。

⁶They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my steps, when they wait for my soul.

⁷愿他们因罪孽的缘故不能逃脱；　神啊！愿你在怒中使这些人败落。

⁷Shall they escape by iniquity? in thine anger cast down the people, O God.

⁸我多次流离，你都数算；你把我的眼泪装在你的皮袋里。这不都记在你的册子上吗？

⁸Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: are they not in thy book?

⁹我呼求你的时候，我的仇敌就都转身退后；因此我知道　神是帮助我的。

⁹When I cry unto thee, then shall mine enemies turn back: this I know; for God is for me.

¹⁰靠着　神，我要赞美他的话；靠着耶和华，我要赞美他的话。

¹⁰In God will I praise his word: in the LORD will I praise his word.

¹¹我倚靠　神，就必不惧怕，人能把我怎么样呢？

¹¹In God have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do unto me.

¹²　神啊！我要偿还我向你所许的愿，我要把感谢祭献给你。

¹²Thy vows are upon me, O God: I will render praises unto thee.

¹³因为你救了我的性命脱离死亡；你不是救了我的脚不跌倒，使我在生命的光中，行在　神你的面前吗？

¹³For thou hast delivered my soul from death: wilt not thou deliver my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living?
