诗篇 118
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
为胜利而感恩
118 你们要称谢耶和华，
因为祂是美善的，
祂的慈爱永远长存。
2 愿以色列人说：
“祂的慈爱永远长存。”
3 愿亚伦家说：
“祂的慈爱永远长存。”
4 愿那些敬畏耶和华的人说：
“祂的慈爱永远长存。”
5 我在苦难中求告耶和华，
祂就答应我，救我脱离困境。
6 有耶和华与我同在，
我必不惧怕，
人能把我怎么样？
7 耶和华与我同在，帮助我，
我必看见那些恨我的人一败涂地。
8 投靠耶和华胜过倚靠人。
9 投靠耶和华胜过倚靠权贵。
10 列国围住我，
但我靠着耶和华消灭了他们。
11 他们四面围住我，
但我靠着耶和华消灭了他们。
12 他们如蜜蜂围住我，
然而他们必像燃烧的荆棘，
转瞬消逝；
我靠着耶和华必消灭他们。
13 我受到猛烈的攻击，
几乎要倒下了，
但耶和华帮助了我。
14 耶和华是我的力量，
是我的诗歌；
祂拯救了我。
15 义人的帐篷里传出胜利的欢呼声：
“耶和华伸出右手施展了大能！
16 耶和华高举右手，
耶和华的右手施展了大能！”
17 我必不至于死，
我要活着，
并要述说耶和华的作为。
18 耶和华虽然重重地惩罚我，
却没有置我于死地。
19 给我打开圣殿的门吧，
我要进去称谢耶和华。
20 这是耶和华的门，
义人都可以进去。
21 耶和华啊！我称谢你，
因为你听了我的祷告，
拯救了我。
22 工匠丢弃的石头已成了房角石。
23 这是耶和华的作为，
在我们看来奇妙莫测。
24 这是耶和华得胜的日子，
我们要欢喜快乐。
25 耶和华啊，求你拯救我们；
耶和华啊，求你使我们亨通。
26 奉耶和华之名而来的当受称颂！
我们要在耶和华的殿中祝福你们。
27 耶和华是上帝，
祂的光照亮我们。
要用绳索拴住祭牲，
牵到祭坛的角那里。
28 你是我的上帝，我要称谢你；
你是我的上帝，我要尊崇你。
29 你们要称谢耶和华，
因为祂是美善的，
祂的慈爱永远长存。
Psalm 118
The Voice
Psalm 118
1 Give thanks to the Eternal because He is always good.
He never ceases to be loving and kind.
2 Let the people of Israel proclaim:
“He never ceases to be loving and kind.”
3 Let the priests of Aaron’s line proclaim:
“He never ceases to be loving and kind.”
4 Let the people who fear the Eternal proclaim:
“He never ceases to be loving and kind.”
5 When trouble surrounded me, I cried out to the Eternal;
He answered me and brought me to a wide, open space.
6 The Eternal is with me,
so I will not be afraid of anything.
If God is on my side, how can anyone hurt me?
7 The Eternal is on my side, a champion for my cause;
so when I look at those who hate me, victory will be in sight.
8 It is better to put your faith in the Eternal for your security
than to trust in people.
9 It is better to put your faith in Him for your security
than to trust in princes.
10 All these nations surround me, squeezing me from all sides;
with the name of the Eternal, I will destroy them.
11 They rose up against me, squeezed me from all sides, yes, from all sides;
with the name of the Eternal, I will destroy them.
12 They surrounded me like a swarm of bees;
they were destroyed quickly and thoroughly—
Flaring up like a pile of thorns—
with the name of the Eternal, I will destroy them.
13 I was pushed back, attacked so that I was about to fall,
but the Eternal was there to help me keep my balance.
14 He is my strength, and He is the reason I sing;
He has been there to save me in every situation.
15 In the tents of the righteous soldiers of God,
there are shouts of joy and victory. They sing:
“The right hand of the Eternal has shown His power.
16 The mighty arm of the Eternal is raised in victory;
the right hand of His has shown His power.”
17 I will not die. I will live.
I will live to tell about all the Eternal has done.
18 The Eternal has taught me many lessons;
He has been strict and severe,
but even in His discipline, He has not allowed me to die.
Early Christians found in the words of this psalm a wonderful way of describing the significance of Jesus. He was the rejected stone whom God made the cornerstone of a brand-new temple (verses 22–24).
19 Open wide to me the gates of justice
so that I may walk through them
and offer praise and worship to the Eternal.
20 This is the gate of the Eternal;
the righteous children of God will go through it.
21 I will praise You because You answered me when I was in trouble.
You have become my salvation.
22 The stone that the builders rejected
has become the very stone that holds together the entire foundation.
23 This is the work of the Eternal,
and it is marvelous in our eyes.[a]
24 This is the day the Eternal God has made;
let us celebrate and be happy today.
25 O Eternal One, save us, we beg You.
O Eternal One, we beg You, bring us success!
26 He who comes in the name of the Eternal will be blessed;[b]
we have blessed You from the house of the Eternal.
27 The Eternal is the True God;
He shines His light on us.
Let the feast begin.
Bring the sacrifice, and tie it to the horns of the altar.
28 You are my God, and I give You thanks;
You are my God, and I praise You.
29 Give thanks to our Eternal Lord; He is always good.
He never ceases to be loving and kind.
