诗篇 第 116 篇

1我爱耶和华， 因为他听了我的声音和我的恳求。

1I love the LORD, because he hath heard my voice and my supplications.

2他既向我侧耳， 我一生要求告他。

2Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I call upon him as long as I live.

3死亡的绳索缠绕我； 阴间的痛苦抓住我； 我遭遇患难愁苦。

3The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains of hell gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow.

4那时，我便求告耶和华的名，说： 耶和华啊，求你救我的灵魂！

4Then called I upon the name of the LORD; O LORD, I beseech thee, deliver my soul.

5耶和华有恩惠，有公义； 我们的神以怜悯为怀。

5Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; yea, our God is merciful.

6耶和华保护愚人； 我落到卑微的地步，他救了我。

6The LORD preserveth the simple: I was brought low, and he helped me.

7我的心哪！你要仍归安乐， 因为耶和华用厚恩待你。

7Return unto thy rest, O my soul; for the LORD hath dealt bountifully with thee.

8主啊，你救我的命免了死亡， 救我的眼免了流泪， 救我的脚免了跌倒。

8For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.

9我要在耶和华面前行活人之路。

9I will walk before the LORD in the land of the living.

10我因信，所以如此说话； 我受了极大的困苦。

10I believed, therefore have I spoken: I was greatly afflicted:

11我曾急促地说： 人都是说谎的！

11I said in my haste, All men are liars.

12我拿什么报答耶和华向我所赐的一切厚恩？

12What shall I render unto the LORD for all his benefits toward me?

13我要举起救恩的杯， 称扬耶和华的名。

13I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the LORD.

14我要在他众民面前向耶和华还我的愿。

14I will pay my vows unto the LORD now in the presence of all his people.

15在耶和华眼中， 看圣民之死极为宝贵。

15Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints.

16耶和华啊，我真是你的仆人； 我是你的仆人，是你婢女的儿子。 你已经解开我的绑索。

16O LORD, truly I am thy servant; I am thy servant, and the son of thine handmaid: thou hast loosed my bonds.

17我要以感谢为祭献给你， 又要求告耶和华的名。

17I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call upon the name of the LORD.

18我要在他众民面前， 在耶和华殿的院内， 在耶路撒冷当中， 向耶和华还我的愿。 你们要赞美耶和华！

18I will pay my vows unto the LORD now in the presence of all his people,

19In the courts of the LORD’s house, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Praise ye the LORD.
