Psalms 30

1 A Psalm. A song for the dedication of the temple. Of David. I will exalt You, O LORD, for You have lifted me up and have not allowed my foes to rejoice over me.

1 耶和華啊，我要尊崇你， 因為你曾提拔我，不叫仇敵向我誇耀。

2 O LORD my God, I cried to You for help, and You healed me.

2 耶和華－我的上帝啊， 我曾呼求你，你醫治了我。

3 O LORD, You pulled me up from Sheol; You spared me from descending into the Pit.

3 耶和華啊，你曾把我的靈魂從陰間救上來， 使我存活，不至於下坑。

4 Sing to the LORD, O you His saints, and praise His holy name.

4 耶和華的聖民哪，你們要歌頌他， 稱讚他可記念的聖名。

5 For His anger is fleeting, but His favor lasts a lifetime. Weeping may stay the night, but joy comes in the morning.

5 因為，他的怒氣不過是轉眼之間； 他的恩典乃是一生之久。 一宿雖然有哭泣， 早晨便必歡呼。

6 In prosperity I said, “I will never be shaken.”

6 至於我，我凡事平順，便說： 我永不動搖。

7 O LORD, You favored me; You made my mountain stand strong. When You hid Your face, I was dismayed.

7 耶和華啊，你曾施恩，叫我的江山穩固； 你掩了面，我就驚惶。

8 To You, O LORD, I called, and I begged my Lord for mercy:

8 耶和華啊，我曾求告你； 我向耶和華懇求，說：

9 “What gain is there in my bloodshed, in my descent to the Pit? Will the dust praise You? Will it proclaim Your faithfulness?

9 我被害流血，下到坑中，有甚麼益處呢？ 塵土豈能稱讚你，傳說你的誠實嗎？

10 Hear me, O LORD, and have mercy; O LORD, be my helper.”

10 耶和華啊，求你應允我，憐恤我！ 耶和華啊，求你幫助我！

11 You turned my mourning into dancing; You peeled off my sackcloth and clothed me with joy,

11 你已將我的哀哭變為跳舞， 將我的麻衣脫去，給我披上喜樂，

12 that my heart may sing Your praises and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks forever.

12 好叫我的靈 歌頌你，並不住聲。 耶和華－我的上帝啊，我要稱謝你，直到永遠！
