Psalms 94

1 O LORD, God of vengeance, O God of vengeance, shine forth.

1 耶和華啊，你是伸冤的上帝； 伸冤的上帝啊，求你發出光來！

2 Rise up, O Judge of the earth; render a reward to the proud.

2 審判世界的主啊，求你挺身而立， 使驕傲人受應得的報應！

3 How long will the wicked, O LORD, how long will the wicked exult?

3 耶和華啊，惡人誇勝要到幾時呢？ 要到幾時呢？

4 They pour out arrogant words; all workers of iniquity boast.

4 他們絮絮叨叨說傲慢的話； 一切作孽的人都自己誇張。

5 They crush Your people, O LORD; they oppress Your heritage.

5 耶和華啊，他們強壓你的百姓， 苦害你的產業。

6 They kill the widow and the foreigner; they murder the fatherless.

6 他們殺死寡婦和寄居的， 又殺害孤兒。

7 They say, “The LORD does not see; the God of Jacob pays no heed.”

7 他們說：耶和華必不看見； 雅各的上帝必不思念。

8 Take notice, O senseless among the people! O fools, when will you be wise?

8 你們民間的畜類人當思想； 你們愚頑人到幾時才有智慧呢？

9 He who affixed the ear, can He not hear? He who formed the eye, can He not see?

9 造耳朵的，難道自己不聽見嗎？ 造眼睛的，難道自己不看見嗎？

10 He who admonishes the nations, does He not discipline? He who teaches man, does He lack knowledge?

10 管教列邦的，就是叫人得知識的， 難道自己不懲治人嗎？

11 The LORD knows the thoughts of man, that they are futile.

11 耶和華知道人的意念是虛妄的。

12 Blessed is the man You discipline, O LORD, and teach from Your law,

12 耶和華啊，你所管教、 用律法所教訓的人是有福的！

13 to grant him relief from days of trouble, until a pit is dug for the wicked.

13 你使他在遭難的日子得享平安； 惟有惡人陷在所挖的坑中。

14 For the LORD will not forsake His people; He will never abandon His heritage.

14 因為耶和華必不丟棄他的百姓， 也不離棄他的產業。

15 Surely judgment will again be righteous, and all the upright in heart will follow it.

15 審判要轉向公義； 心裏正直的，必都隨從。

16 Who will rise up for me against the wicked? Who will stand for me against the workers of iniquity?

16 誰肯為我起來攻擊作惡的？ 誰肯為我站起抵擋作孽的？

17 Unless the LORD had been my helper, I would soon have dwelt in the abode of silence.

17 若不是耶和華幫助我， 我就住在寂靜之中了。

18 If I say, “My foot is slipping,” Your loving devotion, O LORD, supports me.

18 我正說我失了腳， 耶和華啊，那時你的慈愛扶助我。

19 When anxiety overwhelms me, Your consolation delights my soul.

19 我心裏多憂多疑， 你安慰我，就使我歡樂。

20 Can a corrupt throne be Your ally—one devising mischief by decree?

20 那藉着律例架弄殘害、 在位上行奸惡的，豈能與你相交嗎？

21 They band together against the righteous and condemn the innocent to death.

21 他們大家聚集攻擊義人， 將無辜的人定為死罪。

22 But the LORD has been my stronghold, and my God is my rock of refuge.

22 但耶和華向來作了我的高臺； 我的上帝作了我投靠的磐石。

23 He will bring upon them their own iniquity and destroy them for their wickedness. The LORD our God will destroy them.

23 他叫他們的罪孽歸到他們身上。 他們正在行惡之中，他要剪除他們； 耶和華－我們的上帝要把他們剪除。
