1Answer me when I call, God of my righteousness. Give me relief from my distress. Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer.
1大卫的诗,交给诗班长,用丝弦的乐器伴奏。我公义的 神啊(“我公义的 神啊”或译:“使我为义的 神啊”)!我呼求的时候,求你答应我。我在困苦中,你曾使我舒畅。求你恩待我,听我的祷告。
2You sons of men, how long shall my glory be turned into dishonor? Will you love vanity, and seek after falsehood? Selah.
2尊贵的人啊!你们把我的荣耀变为羞辱,要到几时呢?你们喜爱虚妄,追求虚谎,要到几时呢?(细拉)
3But know that Yahweh has set apart for himself him who is godly: Yahweh will hear when I call to him.
3你们要知道耶和华已经把虔诚人分别出来,归他自己;我向耶和华呼求的时候,他就垂听。
4Stand in awe, and don’t sin. Search your own heart on your bed, and be still. Selah.
4你们生气,却不可犯罪;在床上的时候,你们要在心里思想,并且要安静。(细拉)
5Offer the sacrifices of righteousness. Put your trust in Yahweh.
5你们应当献公义的祭,也要投靠耶和华。
6Many say, “Who will show us any good?” Yahweh, let the light of your face shine on us.
6有许多人说:“谁能指示我们得什么好处呢?”耶和华啊!求你仰起你的脸,光照我们。
7You have put gladness in my heart, more than when their grain and their new wine are increased.
7你使我心里喜乐,胜过人在丰收五谷新酒时的喜乐。
8In peace I will both lay myself down and sleep, for you, Yahweh alone, make me live in safety.
8我必平平安安躺下睡觉,因为只有你耶和华能使我安然居住。
