¹A Prayer of David. Hear, O Jehovah, righteousness, attend my cry, Give ear [to] my prayer, without lips of deceit.

¹大卫的祷告。耶和华啊！求你垂听我公义的案件，倾听我的申诉；求你留心听我的祷告，这不是出于诡诈嘴唇的祷告。（本节在《马索拉抄本》包括细字标题）

²From before thee my judgment doth go out; Thine eyes do see uprightly.

²愿我的判词从你面前发出，愿你的眼睛察看正直的事。

³Thou hast proved my heart, Thou hast inspected by night, Thou hast tried me, Thou findest nothing; My thoughts pass not over my mouth.

³你试验了我的心，在夜间鉴察了我；你熬炼了我，还是找不到什么，因为我立志使我的口没有过犯。

⁴As to doings of man, Through a word of Thy lips I have observed The paths of a destroyer;

⁴至于世人的行为，我借着你嘴唇所出的话，保护了自己，不行强暴人的道路。

⁵To uphold my goings in Thy paths, My steps have not slidden.

⁵我的脚步稳踏在你的路径上，我的两脚没有动摇。

⁶I — I called Thee, for Thou dost answer me, O God, incline Thine ear to me, hear my speech.

⁶　神啊！我向你呼求，因为你必应允我；求你侧耳听我，垂听我的祷告。

⁷Separate wonderfully Thy kindness, O Saviour of the confiding, By Thy right hand, from withstanders.

⁷求你把你的慈爱奇妙地彰显，用右手拯救那些投靠你的，脱离那些起来攻击他们的。

⁸Keep me as the apple, the daughter of the eye; In shadow of Thy wings thou dost hide me.

⁸求你保护我，像保护眼中的瞳人，把我隐藏在你的翅膀荫下；

⁹From the face of the wicked who spoiled me. Mine enemies in soul go round against me.

⁹使我脱离那些欺压我的恶人，脱离那些围绕我的死敌。

¹⁰Their fat they have closed up, Their mouths have spoken with pride:

¹⁰他们闭塞了怜悯的心（“怜悯的心”原文作“他们的脂油”），口里说出骄傲的话。

¹¹`Our steps now have compassed [him];` Their eyes they set to turn aside in the land.

¹¹他们追踪我，现在把我围困了（“他们追踪我，现在把我围困了”原文作“他们围困了我们的脚步”）；他们瞪着眼，要把我推倒在地上。

¹²His likeness as a lion desirous to tear, As a young lion dwelling in secret places.

¹²他们像急于撕碎猎物的狮子，又像蹲伏在隐密处的幼狮。

¹³Arise, O Jehovah, go before his face, Cause him to bend. Deliver my soul from the wicked, Thy sword,

¹³耶和华啊！求你起来，迎面攻击他们，把他们打倒；用你的刀救我的命脱离恶人。

¹⁴From men, Thy hand, O Jehovah, From men of the world, their portion [is] in life, And [with] Thy hidden things Thou fillest their belly, They are satisfied [with] sons; And have left their abundance to their sucklings.

¹⁴耶和华啊！求你用手救我脱离世人，脱离那些只在今生有分的世人。求你用你为他们储存的充满他们的肚腹，使他们的儿女都可以饱尝，他们还有剩余的留给他们的子孙。

¹⁵I — in righteousness, I see Thy face; I am satisfied, in awaking, [with] Thy form!

¹⁵至于我，我必在义中得见你的面；我醒来的时候，得见你的形象就心满意足。
