1 In you, O Lord, have I put my hope; let me never be shamed.
2 Keep me safe in your righteousness, and come to my help; give ear to my voice, and be my saviour.
3 Be my strong Rock, the strong place of my salvation; for you are my Rock, and my safe place.
4 O my God, take me out of the hand of the sinner, out of the hand of the evil and cruel man.
5 For you are my hope, O Lord God; I have had faith in you from the time when I was young.
6 You have been my support from the day of my birth; you took me out of my mother's body; my praise will be ever of you.
7 I am a wonder to all; but you are my strong tower.
8 My mouth will be full of your praise and glory all the day.
9 Do not give me up when I am old; be my help even when my strength is gone.
10 For my haters are waiting secretly for me; and those who are watching for my soul are banded together in their evil designs,
11 Saying, God has given him up; go after him and take him, for he has no helper.
12 O God, be not far from me; O my God, come quickly to my help.
13 Let those who say evil against my soul be overcome and put to shame; let my haters be made low and have no honour.
14 But I will go on ever hoping, and increasing in all your praise.
15 My mouth will make clear your righteousness and your salvation all the day; for they are more than may be measured.
16 I will give news of the great acts of the Lord God; my words will be of your righteousness, and of yours only.
17 O God, you have been my teacher from the time when I was young; and I have been talking of your works of wonder even till now.
18 Now when I am old and grey-headed, O God, give me not up; till I have made clear your strength to this generation, and your power to all those to come.
19 Your righteousness, O God, is very high; you have done great things; O God, who is like you?
20 You, who have sent great and bitter troubles on me, will give me life again, lifting me up from the deep waters of the underworld.
21 You will make me greater than before, and give me comfort on every side.
22 I will give praise to you with instruments of music, O my God, for you are true; I will make songs to you with music, O Holy One of Israel.
23 Joy will be on my lips when I make melody to you; and in my soul, to which you have given salvation.
24 My tongue will be talking of your righteousness all the day; for those whose purpose is to do me evil have been crushed and put to shame.
1 耶和华啊! 我投靠你, 求你使我永不羞愧。
2 求你按着你的公义搭救我, 救赎我; 求你留心听我, 拯救我。
3 求你作我避难的磐石, 使我可以常来投靠; 你已经下令救我, 因为你是我的岩石、我的坚垒。
4 我的 神啊! 求你救我脱离恶人的手, 脱离邪恶和残暴的人的掌握,
5 因为你是我的盼望; 主耶和华啊! 你是我自幼以来所倚靠的。
6 我自出母胎就倚赖你, 把我从母腹中领出来的就是你, 我要常常赞美你。
7 众人都以我为怪, 但你是我坚固的避难所。
8 我要满口赞美你, 我终日颂扬你的荣美。
9 我年老的时候, 求你不要丢弃我; 我气力衰弱的时候, 求你不要离弃我。
10 因为我的仇敌议论我; 那些窥探着要害我性命的, 一同商议,
11 说: " 神已经离弃了他, 你们追赶他, 拿住他吧! 因为没有人搭救他。"
12 神啊! 求你不要远离我; 我的 神啊! 求你快来帮助我。
13 愿那些控告我的, 都羞愧灭亡; 愿那些谋求害我的, 都蒙羞受辱。
14 至于我, 我要常常仰望你, 要多多赞美你。
15 我的口要述说你的公义, 终日讲述你的救恩, 尽管我不知道它们的数量。
16 我要来述说主耶和华大能的事; 我要提说你独有的公义。
17 神啊! 我自幼以来, 你就教导我; 直到现在, 我还是宣扬你奇妙的作为。
18 神啊! 到我年老发白的时候, 求你仍不要离弃我, 等我把你的能力向下一代传扬, 把你的大能向后世所有的人传扬。
19 神啊! 你的公义达到高天, 你曾经行过大事, 神啊! 有谁像你呢?
20 你使我们经历了很多苦难, 你必使我们再活过来, 你必把我们从地的深处救上来。
21 你必增加我的尊荣, 并转过来安慰我。
22 我的 神啊! 我要弹琴称赞你, 称赞你的信实; 以色列的圣者啊! 我要鼓瑟歌颂你。
23 我歌颂你的时候, 我的嘴唇要欢呼; 我的灵魂, 就是你所救赎的, 也要欢呼。
24 我的舌头也要终日讲述你的公义, 因为那些谋求害我的人已经蒙羞受辱了。
