Psalms 79

(亚萨的诗。) 神啊,外邦人进入你的产业,污秽你的圣殿,使耶路撒冷变成荒堆,
O God, the heathen are come into thine inheritance; thy holy temple have they defiled; they have laid Jerusalem on heaps.
把你仆人的尸首交与天空的飞鸟为食,把你圣民的肉交与地上的野兽,
The dead bodies of thy servants have they given to be meat unto the fowls of the heaven, the flesh of thy saints unto the beasts of the earth.
在耶路撒冷周围流他们的血如水,无人葬埋。
Their blood have they shed like water round about Jerusalem; and there was none to bury them.
我们成为邻国的羞辱,成为我们四围人的嗤笑讥刺。
We are become a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and derision to them that are round about us.
耶和华啊,这到几时呢?你要动怒到永远吗?你的愤恨要如火焚烧吗?
How long, LORD? wilt thou be angry for ever? shall thy jealousy burn like fire?
愿你将你的忿怒倒在那不认识你的外邦和那不求告你名的国度。
Pour out thy wrath upon the heathen that have not known thee, and upon the kingdoms that have not called upon thy name.
因为他们吞了雅各,把他的住处变为荒场。
For they have devoured Jacob, and laid waste his dwelling place.
求你不要记念我们先祖的罪孽,向我们追讨;愿你的慈悲快迎著我们,因为我们落到极卑微的地步。
O remember not against us former iniquities: let thy tender mercies speedily prevent us: for we are brought very low.
拯救我们的 神啊,求你因你名的荣耀帮助我们!为你名的缘故搭救我们,赦免我们的罪。
Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of thy name: and deliver us, and purge away our sins, for thy name's sake.
为何容外邦人说他们的 神在哪里呢?愿你使外邦人知道你在我们眼前伸你仆人流血的冤。
Wherefore should the heathen say, Where is their God? let him be known among the heathen in our sight by the revenging of the blood of thy servants which is shed.
愿被囚之人的叹息达到你面前;愿你按你的大能力存留那些将要死的人。
Let the sighing of the prisoner come before thee; according to the greatness of thy power preserve thou those that are appointed to die;
主啊,愿你将我们邻邦所羞辱你的羞辱加七倍归到他们身上。
And render unto our neighbours sevenfold into their bosom their reproach, wherewith they have reproached thee, O Lord.
这样,你的民,你草场的羊,要称谢你,直到永远;要述说讚美你的话,直到万代。
So we thy people and sheep of thy pasture will give thee thanks for ever: we will shew forth thy praise to all generations.
