Psalms 1 1 2 For the leader; al Jeduthun. A psalm of David. 达味诗歌，交与乐官耶杜通。 2 My soul rests in God alone, from whom comes my salvation. 3 God alone is my rock and salvation, my secure height; I shall never fall. 只有他是我的磐石，我的救星；他是我的堡垒，我决不致摇倾。 4 How long will you set upon people, all of you beating them down, As though they were a sagging fence or a battered wall? 你们不断侵犯一人，并向他一人冲击，如冲击将倒的墙，将坍的壁，要到几时？ 5 Even from my place on high they plot to dislodge me. They delight in lies; they bless with their mouths, but inwardly they curse. Selah 实在，他们企图，要将我由我高位上推下；他们喜爱谎言，口虽祝福，心却辱骂。 6 My soul, be at rest in God alone, from whom comes my hope. 我的灵魂，你只安息在天主内，因为我的期望全是由他而来。 7 God alone is my rock and my salvation, my secure height; I shall not fall. 只有他是我的磐石，我的救星；他是我的堡垒，我决不致摇倾。 8 My safety and glory are with God, my strong rock and refuge. 我的救恩，我的光荣全在于天主，我的堡垒，我的护卫全基于天主。 9 Trust God at all times, my people! Pour out your hearts to God our refuge! Selah 百姓，你们该常向他表示依靠，该在他面前吐露你们的心窍：因为天主确是我们的避难所。 10 3 Mortals are a mere breath, the powerful but an illusion; On a balance they rise; together they are lighter than air. 庶民不过是口气，显贵也无非是幻影；放在天秤上必然浮起，合计还比气轻。 11 Do not trust in extortion; in plunder put no empty hope. Though wealth increase, do not set your heart upon it. 莫依势凌人，不要以劫掠骄矜；如财宝日增，也不要挂念在心。 12 4 One thing God has said; two things I have heard: Power belongs to God; 天主说过一次，我确实也听过两次： 13 so too, Lord, does kindness, And you render to each of us according to our deeds. “威能属于天主；我主，慈爱也非你莫属，因你按照各人的行为，予各人以报酬 Footnotes(注解) 1 [Psalm 62] A song of trust displaying serenity from experiencing God's power (the refrains of Psalm 62:2-3 and Psalm 62:6-7) and anger toward unjust enemies (Psalm 62:4-5). From the experience of being rescued, the psalmist can teach others to trust in God (Psalm 62:9-12). 2 [1] 'Al Jeduthun: apparently the Hebrew name for the melody. 3 [10] On a balance they rise: precious objects were weighed by balancing two pans suspended from a beam. The lighter pan rises. 4 [12] One thing . . . two things: parallelism of numbers for the sake of variation, a common device in Semitic poetry. One should not literally add up the numbers. Cf Amos 1:3; Proverb 6:16-19; 30:15, 18, 21. |
