PSALM 5

1 Give ear to my words, O Lord , consider my sighing.
主啊，聆听我的言语，顾念我的心思。
2 Listen to my cry for help, my King and my God, for to you I pray.
我的主，我的神啊，垂听我的呼求。是我在向你祈祷。
3 In the morning, O Lord , you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait in expectation.
主啊，听我早晨的声音。我向你陈明祈求，并且期盼着。
4 You are not a God who takes pleasure in evil; with you the wicked cannot dwell.
你绝不是喜好邪恶的神。恶人不能与你共存。
5 The arrogant cannot stand in your presence; you hate all who do wrong.
你见不得狂傲之人。凡作孽的，你都憎恶。
6 You destroy those who tell lies; bloodthirsty and deceitful men the Lord abhors.
说谎的，你消灭；血腥和欺骗之徒，你都不容。
7 But I, by your great mercy, will come into your house; in reverence will I bow down toward your holy temple.
而我，凭着你的大爱，进入你的圣所；心存敬畏，俯伏在你的殿前。
8 Lead me, O Lord , in your righteousness because of my enemies- make straight your way before me.
主啊，在我的敌人面前，凭你的正义引领我，为我铺直道路。
9 Not a word from their mouth can be trusted; their heart is filled with destruction. Their throat is an open grave; with their tongue they speak deceit.
他们没一句实话，心中只有破坏。他们巧舌如簧，喉咙是敞开的坟墓。
10 Declare them guilty, O God! Let their intrigues be their downfall. Banish them for their many sins, for they have rebelled against you.
神啊，定他们的罪。不让他们阴谋得逞。他们反叛你，罪行累累。把他们赶走。
11 But let all who take refuge in you be glad; let them ever sing for joy. Spread your protection over them, that those who love your name may rejoice in you.
凡投靠你的，让他们快乐；有了你的庇护，凡爱你名的，均因你而欢欣。
12 For surely, O Lord , you bless the righteous; you surround them with your favor as with a shield.
主啊，你定当保佑义人。你的恩赐如同盾牌，严密守护他们。
