¹可拉子孙的训诲诗，交给诗班长。　神啊！我的心渴慕你，好像鹿渴慕溪水。

¹To the Overseer. — An Instruction. By sons of Korah. As a hart doth pant for streams of water, So my soul panteth toward Thee, O God.

²我的心渴想　神，就是永活的　神；我什么时候可以来朝见　神的面呢？

²My soul thirsted for God, for the living God, When do I enter and see the face of God?

³人整天对我说：“你的　神在哪里呢？”我就昼夜以眼泪当饭吃。

³My tear hath been to me bread day and night, In their saying unto me all the day, `Where [is] thy God?`

⁴我从前常常和群众同去，与他们进到　神的殿里，在欢呼和称谢声中，大家守节。每逢想起这些事，我的心就感到难过。

⁴These I remember, and pour out my soul in me, For I pass over into the booth, I go softly with them unto the house of God, With the voice of singing and confession, The multitude keeping feast!

⁵我的心哪！你为什么沮丧呢？为什么在我里面不安呢？应当等候　神；因为我还要称赞他，他是我面前的救助、我的　神。

⁵What! bowest thou thyself, O my soul? Yea, art thou troubled within me? Wait for God, for still I confess Him: The salvation of my countenance — My God!

⁶我的心在我里面沮丧；因此我从约旦地，从黑门岭，从米萨山，记念你。

⁶In me doth my soul bow itself, Therefore I remember Thee from the land of Jordan, And of the Hermons, from the hill Mizar.

⁷你的瀑布一发声，深渊就和深渊响应；你的洪涛和波浪都掩盖了我。

⁷Deep unto deep is calling At the noise of Thy water-spouts, All Thy breakers and Thy billows passed over me.

⁸白天耶和华赐下他的慈爱；夜间我要向他歌颂，向赐我生命的　神祷告。

⁸By day Jehovah commandeth His kindness, And by night a song [is] with me, A prayer to the God of my life.

⁹我要对　神我的磐石说：“你为什么忘记我呢？我为什么因仇敌的压迫徘徊悲哀呢？”

⁹I say to God my rock, `Why hast Thou forgotten me? Why go I mourning in the oppression of an enemy?

¹⁰我的敌人整天对我说：“你的　神在哪里呢？”他们这样辱骂我的时候，就像在击碎我的骨头。

¹⁰With a sword in my bones Have mine adversaries reproached me, In their saying unto me all the day, `Where [is] thy God?`

¹¹我的心哪！你为什么沮丧呢？为什么在我里面不安呢？应当等候　神；因为我还要称赞他，他是我面前的救助、我的　神。

¹¹What! bowest thou thyself, O my soul? And what! art thou troubled within me? Wait for God, for still I confess Him, The salvation of my countenance, and my God!
