诗篇 71
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
自幼恃主求其扶助
71 耶和华啊,我投靠你,求你叫我永不羞愧。
2 求你凭你的公义搭救我,救拔我;侧耳听我,拯救我。
3 求你做我常住的磐石,你已经命定要救我,因为你是我的岩石,我的山寨。
4 我的神啊,求你救我脱离恶人的手,脱离不义和残暴之人的手。
5 主耶和华啊,你是我所盼望的,从我年幼你是我所倚靠的。
6 我从出母胎被你扶持,使我出母腹的是你,我必常常赞美你。
7 许多人以我为怪,但你是我坚固的避难所。
8 你的赞美,你的荣耀,终日必满了我的口。
9 我年老的时候,求你不要丢弃我;我力气衰弱的时候,求你不要离弃我。
10 我的仇敌议论我,那些窥探要害我命的彼此商议,
11 说:“神已经离弃他,我们追赶他,捉拿他吧!因为没有人搭救。”
12 神啊,求你不要远离我!我的神啊,求你速速帮助我!
13 愿那与我性命为敌的羞愧被灭,愿那谋害我的受辱蒙羞。
述其公义救恩大能奇行
14 我却要常常盼望,并要越发赞美你。
15 我的口终日要述说你的公义和你的救恩,因我不计其数。
16 我要来说主耶和华大能的事,我单要提说你的公义。
17 神啊,自我年幼时你就教训我,直到如今我传扬你奇妙的作为。
18 神啊,我到年老发白的时候,求你不要离弃我,等我将你的能力指示下代,将你的大能指示后世的人。
19 神啊,你的公义甚高;行过大事的神啊,谁能像你?
20 你是叫我们多经历重大急难的,必使我们复活,从地的深处救上来。
21 求你使我越发昌大,又转来安慰我。
22 我的神啊,我要鼓瑟称赞你,称赞你的诚实!以色列的圣者啊,我要弹琴歌颂你!
23 我歌颂你的时候,我的嘴唇和你所赎我的灵魂都必欢呼。
24 并且我的舌头必终日讲论你的公义,因为那些谋害我的人已经蒙羞受辱了。
Psalm 71
Evangelical Heritage Version
Psalm 71
Do Not Throw Me Away When I Am Old
Opening Prayer
1 In you, Lord, I have taken refuge.
May I not be put to shame forever.
2 In your righteousness rescue me and deliver me.
Turn your ear to me and save me.
3 Be my rock and my refuge to which I can always go.
You give the command to save me,
because you are my high ridge and my stronghold.
4 My God, deliver me from the hand of the wicked,
from the grasp of the unjust and the ruthless.
Remembrance of Past Help
5 For you have been my hope, Lord God,
my confidence since my youth.
6 I have depended on[a] you since I was in the womb.
You separated me from my mother’s body.
My praise to you is continuous.
Statement of Present Need
7 I am like an evil omen to many,
but you are my strong refuge.
8 My mouth is filled with praise for you
and with your splendor all day long.
Plea for Help in Present Trouble
9 Do not throw me away in old age.
As my strength fails, do not forsake me.
10 For my enemies speak against me,
and those who seek my life conspire together.
11 They say, “God has forsaken him.
Pursue him and seize him,
because there is no one to rescue him.”
12 God, do not be far from me.
My God, hurry to help me.
13 Let them be ashamed.
Let my murderous accusers be consumed.
Let those who seek to harm me be covered
with shame and disgrace.
Present and Future Praise
14 But as for me, I will always keep hoping.
I will keep adding to my praise for you.
15 My mouth will tell about your righteousness,
about your salvation all day long,
although I do not know how to tell all about it.
16 I will come and tell about your mighty deeds, Lord God.
I will commemorate[b] your righteousness, yours alone.
17 God, you have taught me since my youth,
and even now I still declare your marvelous deeds.
18 Even when I am old and gray, O God, do not forsake me,
till I declare the strength of your arm to the next generation,
your power to all who are to come.
Closing Confidence
19 Your righteousness, God, reaches to the heights.
You have done great things.
God, who is like you,
20 you who have made us see many troubles and disasters?
You will give us life again.
From the depths of the earth you will bring me up again.
21 You will increase my greatness and comfort me once again.
Closing Praise
22 Yes, I will praise you, my God, for your faithfulness.
I will praise you with an instrument, with the harp.
I will make music to you with the lyre, O Holy One of Israel.
23 My lips will shout with joy when I make music to you.
Even my soul, which you have redeemed, will shout.
24 Indeed, my tongue will tell of your righteousness all day long.
How ashamed, how disgraced they are—
those who are trying to harm me.
