Psalms 83

1 A song. A Psalm of Asaph. O God, be not silent; be not speechless; be not still, O God.

1 上帝啊，求你不要靜默！ 上帝啊，求你不要閉口，也不要不作聲！

2 See how Your enemies rage, how Your foes have reared their heads.

2 因為你的仇敵喧嚷， 恨你的抬起頭來。

3 With cunning they scheme against Your people and conspire against those You cherish,

3 他們同謀奸詐要害你的百姓， 彼此商議要害你所隱藏的人。

4 saying, “Come, let us erase them as a nation; may the name of Israel be remembered no more.”

4 他們說：來吧，我們將他們剪滅， 使他們不再成國！ 使以色列的名不再被人記念！

5 For with one mind they plot together; they form an alliance against You—

5 他們同心商議， 彼此結盟，要抵擋你，

6 the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, of Moab and the Hagrites,

6 就是住帳棚的以東人和以實瑪利人， 摩押和夏甲人，

7 of Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek, of Philistia with the people of Tyre.

7 迦巴勒、亞捫， 和亞瑪力、非利士並泰爾的居民。

8 Even Assyria has joined them, lending strength to the sons of Lot. Selah

8 亞述也與他們連合； 他們作羅得子孫的幫手。（細拉）

9 Do to them as You did to Midian, as to Sisera and Jabin at the River Kishon,

9 求你待他們，如待米甸， 如在基順河待西西拉和耶賓一樣。

10 who perished at Endor and became like dung on the ground.

10 他們在隱‧多珥滅亡， 成了地上的糞土。

11 Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, and all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,

11 求你叫他們的首領像俄立和西伊伯， 叫他們的王子都像西巴和撒慕拿。

12 who said, “Let us possess for ourselves the pastures of God.”

12 他們說：我們要得上帝的住處， 作為自己的產業。

13 Make them like tumbleweed, O my God, like chaff before the wind.

13 我的上帝啊，求你叫他們像旋風的塵土， 像風前的碎稭。

14 As fire consumes a forest, as a flame sets the mountains ablaze,

14 火怎樣焚燒樹林， 火焰怎樣燒着山嶺，

15 so pursue them with Your tempest, and terrify them with Your storm.

15 求你也照樣用狂風追趕他們， 用暴雨恐嚇他們。

16 Cover their faces with shame, that they may seek Your name, O LORD.

16 願你使他們滿面羞恥， 好叫他們尋求你－耶和華的名！

17 May they be ever ashamed and terrified; may they perish in disgrace.

17 願他們永遠羞愧驚惶！ 願他們慚愧滅亡！

18 May they know that You alone, whose name is the LORD, are Most High over all the earth.

18 使他們知道：惟獨你－ 名為耶和華的－是全地以上的至高者！
