Psalms 40

I waited patiently for the LORD; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.
(大卫的诗,交与伶长。)我曾耐性等候耶和华;他垂听我的呼求。
He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.
他从祸坑里,从淤泥中,把我拉上来,使我的脚立在磐石上,使我脚步稳当。
And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.
他使我口唱新歌,就是讚美我们 神的话。许多人必看见而惧怕,并要倚靠耶和华。
Blessed is that man that maketh the LORD his trust, and respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.
那倚靠耶和华、不理会狂傲和偏向虚假之辈的,这人便为有福!
Many, O LORD my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done, and thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.
耶和华─我的 神啊,你所行的奇事,并你向我们所怀的意念甚多,不能向你陈明。若要陈明,其事不可胜数。
Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast thou opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.
祭物和礼物,你不喜悦;你已经开通我的耳朵。燔祭和赎罪祭非你所要。
Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,
那时我说:看哪,我来了!我的事在经卷上已经记载了。
I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.
我的 神啊,我乐意照你的旨意行;你的律法在我心里。
I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: lo, I have not refrained my lips, O LORD, thou knowest.
我在大会中宣传公义的佳音;我必不止住我的嘴唇。耶和华啊,这是你所知道的。
I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared thy faithfulness and thy salvation: I have not concealed thy lovingkindness and thy truth from the great congregation.
我未曾把你的公义藏在心里;我已陈明你的信实和你的救恩;我在大会中未曾隐瞒你的慈爱和诚实。
Withhold not thou thy tender mercies from me, O LORD: let thy lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve me.
耶和华啊,求你不要向我止住你的慈悲!愿你的慈爱和诚实常常保佑我!
For innumerable evils have compassed me about: mine iniquities have taken hold upon me, so that I am not able to look up; they are more than the hairs of mine head: therefore my heart faileth me.
因有无数的祸患围困我,我的罪孽追上了我,使我不能昂首;这罪孽比我的头发还多,我就心寒胆战。
Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me: O LORD, make haste to help me.
耶和华啊,求你开恩搭救我!耶和华啊,求你速速帮助我!
Let them be ashamed and confounded together that seek after my soul to destroy it; let them be driven backward and put to shame that wish me evil.
愿那些寻找我、要灭我命的,一同抱愧蒙羞!愿那些喜悦我受害的,退后受辱!
Let them be desolate for a reward of their shame that say unto me, Aha, aha.
愿那些对我说阿哈、阿哈的,因羞愧而败亡!
Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: let such as love thy salvation say continually, The LORD be magnified.
愿一切寻求你的,因你高兴欢喜!愿那些喜爱你救恩的,常说:当尊耶和华为大!
But I am poor and needy; yet the Lord thinketh upon me: thou art my help and my deliverer; make no tarrying, O my God.
但我是困苦穷乏的,主仍顾念我;你是帮助我的,搭救我的。 神啊,求你不要耽延!
