1朝圣之歌(原文作“往上行之歌”)。愿以色列说:“从我幼年以来,敌人就多次苦害我。(本节在《马索拉抄本》包括细字标题)
1A Song of the Ascents. Often they distressed me from my youth, Pray, let Israel say:
2从我幼年以来,敌人虽然多次苦害我,却没有胜过我。
2Often they distressed me from my youth, Yet they have not prevailed over me.
3他们好像犁田的人犁在我的背上,所犁的沟甚长。
3Over my back have ploughers ploughed, They have made long their furrows.
4但耶和华是公义的,他砍断了恶人的绳索。”
4Jehovah [is] righteous, He hath cut asunder cords of the wicked.
5愿所有恨恶锡安的,都蒙羞退后。
5Confounded and turn backward do all hating Zion.
6愿他们像屋顶上的草,尚未长大,就枯干了;
6They are as grass of the roofs, That before it was drawn out withereth,
7收割的不够一把,捆禾的不够满怀。
7That hath not filled the hand of a reaper, And the bosom of a binder of sheaves.
8过路的人也不说:“愿耶和华所赐的福临到你们;我们奉耶和华的名祝福你们。”
8And the passers by have not said, `The blessing of Jehovah [is] on you, We blessed you in the Name of Jehovah!`
