| | 1 | （大卫的诗。）耶和华阿，与我相争的，求你与他们相争。与我相战的，求你与他们相战。
Of David. Contend, O LORD, with those who contend with me; fight against those who fight against me. | |
| | 2 | 拿着大小的盾牌，起来帮助我。
Take up shield and buckler; arise and come to my aid. | |
| | 3 | 抽出枪来，挡住那追赶我的。求你对我的灵魂说，我是拯救你的。
Brandish spear and javelin against those who pursue me. Say to my soul, "I am your salvation." | |
| | 4 | 愿那寻索我命的，蒙羞受辱。愿那谋害我的，退后羞愧。
May those who seek my life be disgraced and put to shame; may those who plot my ruin be turned back in dismay. | |
| | 5 | 愿他们像风前的糠，有耶和华的使者赶逐他们。
May they be like chaff before the wind, with the angel of the LORD driving them away; | |
| | 6 | 愿他们的道路，又暗又滑，有耶和华的使者追赶他们。
may their path be dark and slippery, with the angel of the LORD pursuing them. | |
| | 7 | 因他们无故地为我暗设网罗。无故地挖坑要害我的性命。
Since they hid their net for me without cause and without cause dug a pit for me, | |
| | 8 | 愿灾祸忽然临到他身上。愿他暗设的网缠住自己。愿他落在其中遭灾祸。
may ruin overtake them by surprise--may the net they hid entangle them, may they fall into the pit, to their ruin. | |
| | 9 | 我的心必靠耶和华快乐，靠他的救恩高兴。
Then my soul will rejoice in the LORD and delight in his salvation. | |
| | 10 | 我的骨头都要说，耶和华阿，谁能象你救护困苦人，脱离那比他强壮的，救护困苦穷乏人，脱离那抢夺他的。
My whole being will exclaim, "Who is like you, O LORD? You rescue the poor from those too strong for them, the poor and needy from those who rob them." | |
| | 11 | 凶恶的见证人起来，盘问我所不知道的事。
Ruthless witnesses come forward; they question me on things I know nothing about. | |
| | 12 | 他们向我以恶报善，使我的灵魂孤苦。
They repay me evil for good and leave my soul forlorn. | |
| | 13 | 至于我，当他们有病的时候，我便穿麻衣，禁食刻苦己心。我所求的都归到自己的怀中。
Yet when they were ill, I put on sackcloth and humbled myself with fasting. When my prayers returned to me unanswered, | |
| | 14 | 我这样行，好像他是我的朋友，我的弟兄。我屈身悲哀，如同人为母亲哀痛。
I went about mourning as though for my friend or brother. I bowed my head in grief as though weeping for my mother. | |
| | 15 | 我在患难中，他们却欢喜，大家聚集。我所不认识的那些下流人，聚集攻击我。他们不住地把我撕裂。
But when I stumbled, they gathered in glee; attackers gathered against me when I was unaware. They slandered me without ceasing. | |
| | 16 | 他们如同席上好嬉笑的狂妄人，向我咬牙。
Like the ungodly they maliciously mocked; they gnashed their teeth at me. | |
| | 17 | 主阿，你看着不理，要到几时呢？求你救我的灵魂，脱离他们的残害，救我的生命，脱离少壮狮子。（生命原文作独一者）
O Lord, how long will you look on? Rescue my life from their ravages, my precious life from these lions. | |
| | 18 | 我在大会中要称谢你，在众民中要赞美你。
I will give you thanks in the great assembly; among throngs of people I will praise you. | |
| | 19 | 求你不容那无理与我为仇的，向我夸耀。不容那无故恨我的，向我挤眼。
Let not those gloat over me who are my enemies without cause; let not those who hate me without reason maliciously wink the eye. | |
| | 20 | 因为他们不说和平话。倒想出诡诈的言语，害地上的安静人。
They do not speak peaceably, but devise false accusations against those who live quietly in the land. | |
| | 21 | 他们大大张口攻击我，说，阿哈，阿哈，我们的眼已经看见了。
They gape at me and say, "Aha! Aha! With our own eyes we have seen it." | |
| | 22 | 耶和华阿，你已经看见了。求你不要闭口。主阿，求你不要远离我。
O LORD, you have seen this; be not silent. Do not be far from me, O Lord. | |
| | 23 | 我的神我的主阿，求你奋兴醒起，判清我的事，伸明我的冤。
Awake, and rise to my defense! Contend for me, my God and Lord. | |
| | 24 | 耶和华我的神阿，求你按你的公义判断我，不容他们向我夸耀。
Vindicate me in your righteousness, O LORD my God; do not let them gloat over me. | |
| | 25 | 不容他们心里说，阿哈，遂我们的心愿了。不容他们说，我们已经把他吞了。
Do not let them think, "Aha, just what we wanted!" or say, "We have swallowed him up." | |
| | 26 | 愿那喜欢我遭难的，一同抱愧蒙羞。愿那向我妄自尊大的，披惭愧，蒙羞辱。
May all who gloat over my distress be put to shame and confusion; may all who exalt themselves over me be clothed with shame and disgrace. | |
| | 27 | 愿那喜悦我冤屈得伸的，（冤屈得伸原文作公义），欢呼快乐。愿他们常说，当尊耶和华为大。耶和华喜悦他的仆人平安。
May those who delight in my vindication shout for joy and gladness; may they always say, "The LORD be exalted, who delights in the well-being of his servant." | |
| | 28 | 我的舌头，要终日论说你的公义，时常赞美你。
My tongue will speak of your righteousness and of your praises all day long. | |
