¹We have heard with our ears, God; our fathers have told us, what work you did in their days, in the days of old.

¹可拉子孙的训诲诗，交给诗班长。　神啊！你在古时，在我们列祖的日子所作的事，我们亲耳听见了，我们的列祖也给我们述说过。

²You drove out the nations with your hand, but you planted them. You afflicted the peoples, but you spread them abroad.

²你曾亲手把列国赶出去，却栽培了我们的列祖；你曾苦待众民，却使我们的列祖昌盛。

³For they didn’t get the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them; but your right hand, and your arm, and the light of your face, because you were favorable to them.

³因为他们取得那地，不是靠自己的刀剑；他们得胜，也不是靠自己的膀臂；而是靠你的右手、你的膀臂和你脸上的光，因为你喜悦他们。

⁴You are my King, God. Command victories for Jacob!

⁴　神啊！你是我的王；求你出令，使雅各得胜。

⁵Through you, will we push down our adversaries. Through your name, will we tread them under who rise up against us.

⁵我们靠着你，必打倒我们的敌人；靠着你的名，必践踏那些起来攻击我们的。

⁶For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me.

⁶因为我不是倚靠我的弓，我的刀剑也不能使我得胜。

⁷But you have saved us from our adversaries, and have shamed those who hate us.

⁷但你使我们胜过了我们的敌人，使憎恨我们的人都羞愧。

⁸In God we have made our boast all day long, we will give thanks to your name forever. Selah.

⁸我们整天因　神夸耀，我们要永远称赞你的名。（细拉）

⁹But now you rejected us, and brought us to dishonor, and don’t go out with our armies.

⁹现在，你却弃绝我们，使我们受辱，不再和我们的军队一同出征。

¹⁰You make us turn back from the adversary. Those who hate us take spoil for themselves.

¹⁰你使我们在敌人面前转身后退；憎恨我们的人都任意抢掠。

¹¹You have made us like sheep for food, and have scattered us among the nations.

¹¹你使我们像给人宰吃的羊，把我们分散在列国中。

¹²You sell your people for nothing, and have gained nothing from their sale.

¹²你把你的子民廉价出售；他们的售价并没有使你得到利益。

¹³You make us a reproach to our neighbors, a scoffing and a derision to those who are around us.

¹³你使我们成为邻居的羞辱，成为我们四周的人讥笑和讽刺的对象。

¹⁴You make us a byword among the nations, a shaking of the head among the peoples.

¹⁴你使我们在列国中成为话柄，在万民中使人摇头。

¹⁵All day long my dishonor is before me, and shame covers my face,

¹⁵我的羞辱整天在我面前，我脸上的羞愧把我遮盖了；

¹⁶At the taunt of one who reproaches and verbally abuses, because of the enemy and the avenger.

¹⁶都因那辱骂和毁谤的人的声音，并因仇敌和报仇者的缘故。

¹⁷All this has come on us, yet have we not forgotten you, Neither have we been false to your covenant.

¹⁷这一切临到我们身上，我们却没有忘记你，也没有违背你的约。

¹⁸Our heart has not turned back, neither have our steps strayed from your path,

¹⁸我们的心没有退后，我们的脚步也没有偏离你的路。

¹⁹Though you have crushed us in the haunt of jackals, and covered us with the shadow of death.

¹⁹但你竟在野狗之地把我们压伤了，又以死亡的阴影笼罩我们。

²⁰If we have forgotten the name of our God, or spread forth our hands to a strange god;

²⁰如果我们忘记了我们　神的名，或是向别神伸手祷告；

²¹won’t God search this out? For he knows the secrets of the heart.

²¹　神不会查究这事吗？因为他知道人心的隐秘。

²²Yes, for your sake we are killed all day long. We are regarded as sheep for the slaughter.

²²为你的缘故，我们终日被置于死地；人看我们如同将宰的羊。

²³Wake up! Why do you sleep, Lord? The word translated “Lord” is “Adonai.” Arise! Don’t reject us forever.

²³主啊！求你醒来，为什么还睡着呢？求你起来，不要永远弃绝我们。

²⁴Why do you hide your face, and forget our affliction and our oppression?

²⁴你为什么掩面，忘记了我们的苦难和压迫呢？

²⁵For our soul is bowed down to the dust. Our body clings to the earth.

²⁵我们俯伏在尘土之上；我们的身体紧贴地面。

²⁶Rise up to help us. Redeem us for your loving kindness’ sake.

²⁶求你起来帮助我们，为了你慈爱的缘故救赎我们。
