¹To the Overseer. — A Psalm of David. O the happiness of him Who is acting wisely unto the poor, In a day of evil doth Jehovah deliver him.

¹大卫的诗，交给诗班长。关怀穷乏人的有福了；在遭难的日子，耶和华必救他。

²Jehovah doth preserve him and revive him, He is happy in the land, And Thou givest him not into the will of his enemies.

²耶和华要保护他，使他生存；他在地上要称为有福的；求你不要照着他敌人的心愿把他交给他们。

³Jehovah supporteth on a couch of sickness, All his bed Thou hast turned in his weakness.

³他患病在床，耶和华必扶持他；在病榻中你使他恢复健康。

⁴I — I said, `O Jehovah, favour me, Heal my soul, for I did sin against Thee,`

⁴至于我，我曾说：“耶和华啊！求你恩待我；求你医治我，因为我得罪了你。”

⁵Mine enemies say evil of me: When he dieth — his name hath perished!

⁵我的仇敌用恶毒的话中伤我，说：“他什么时候死呢？他的名字什么时候消灭呢？”

⁶And if he came to see — vanity he speaketh, His heart gathereth iniquity to itself, He goeth out — at the street he speaketh.

⁶即使他来看我，说的也是假话；他把奸诈积存在心里，走到外面才说出来。

⁷All hating me whisper together against me, Against me they devise evil to me:

⁷所有憎恨我的人，都交头接耳地议论我；他们设恶计要害我，说：

⁸A thing of Belial is poured out on him, And because he lay down he riseth not again.

⁸“有恶疾临到他身上；他既然躺下了，就必一病不起。”

⁹Even mine ally, in whom I trusted, One eating my bread, made great the heel against me,

⁹连我信任的密友，就是那吃我饭的，也用脚踢我。

¹⁰And Thou, Jehovah, favour me, And cause me to rise, And I give recompence to them.

¹⁰至于你，耶和华啊！求你恩待我，使我康复起来，好报复他们。

¹¹By this I have known, That Thou hast delighted in me, Because my enemy shouteth not over me.

¹¹因此我就知道你喜爱我，因为我的仇敌不能向我欢呼夸胜。

¹²As to me, in mine integrity, Thou hast taken hold upon me, And causest me to stand before Thee to the age.

¹²至于我，你因为我正直，就扶持我；你使我永远站在你面前。

¹³Blessed [is] Jehovah, God of Israel, From the age — and unto the age. Amen and Amen.

¹³耶和华以色列的　神是应当称颂的，从永远直到永远。阿们，阿们。
