1 Of David. My cry goes up to you, O Lord, my Rock; do not keep back your answer from me, so that I may not become like those who go down into the underworld.

2 Give ear to the voice of my prayer, when I am crying to you, when my hands are lifted up to your holy place.

3 Do not take me away with the sinners and the workers of evil, who say words of peace to their neighbours, but evil is in their hearts.

4 Give them the right reward of their acts, and of their evil doings: give them punishment for the works of their hands, let them have their full reward.

5 Because they have no respect for the works of the Lord, or for the things which his hands have made, they will be broken down and not lifted up by him.

6 May the Lord be praised, because he has given ear to the voice of my prayer.

7 The Lord is my strength and my breastplate, my heart had faith in him and I am helped; for this cause my heart is full of rapture, and I will give him praise in my song.

8 The Lord is their strength, and a strong place of salvation for his king.

9 Be a saviour to your people, and send a blessing on your heritage: be their guide, and let them be lifted up for ever.

1 耶和华啊！ 我向你呼求； 我的磐石啊！ 不要不听我； 如果你缄默不理我， 我就跟那些下坑的人一样。（本节在《马索拉抄本》包括细字标题）

2 我向你呼求， 向你的至圣所举手祷告的时候， 求你垂听我恳求的声音。

3 求你不要把我和坏人， 跟作恶的人一同除掉； 他们与邻居说平安的话， 心里却存着奸恶。

4 愿你按着他们所作的， 照着他们所行的恶报应他们； 愿你照着他们手所作的报应他们， 把他们应得的报应加给他们。

5 他们既然不关心耶和华的作为， 和他手所作的， 耶和华就必拆毁他们， 不建立他们。

6 耶和华是应当称颂的， 因为他听了我恳求的声音。

7 耶和华是我的力量， 是我的盾牌； 我的心倚靠他， 我就得到帮助； 所以我的心欢乐。我要用诗歌颂赞他。

8 耶和华是他子民的力量， 又是他受膏者得救的保障。

9 求你拯救你的子民， 赐福给你的产业， 牧养他们， 怀抱他们， 直到永远。
