诗篇 144
1 大卫的诗。 耶和华—我的磐石是应当称颂的！ 他教导我的手争战， 教导我的指头打仗。
A Psalm of David. Blessed be the LORD my strength, who teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight:
2 他是我慈爱的主，我的山寨， 我的高台，我的救主， 我的盾牌，是我所投靠的； 他使我的百姓服在我以下。
My goodness, and my fortress; my high tower, and my deliverer; my shield, and he in whom I trust; who subdueth my people under me.
3 耶和华啊，人算什么，你竟认识他！ 世人算什么，你竟顾念他！
LORD, what is man, that thou takest knowledge of him! or the son of man, that thou makest account of him!
4 人好像一口气； 他的年日如同影儿快快过去。
Man is like vanity: his days are as a shadow that passeth away.
5 耶和华啊，求你使天下垂，亲自降临， 摸山，山就冒烟。
Bow thy heavens, O LORD, and come down: touch the mountains, and they shall smoke.
6 求你发出闪电，使他们四散， 射出你的箭，使他们扰乱。
Cast forth lightning, and scatter them: shoot thy arrows, and destroy them.
7 求你从上伸手救拔我， 救我出离大水， 救我脱离外邦人的手。
Send thy hand from above; rid me, and deliver me out of great waters, from the hand of foreigners;
8 他们的口说谎话； 他们的右手起假誓。
Whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood.
9 神啊，我要向你唱新歌， 用十弦瑟向你歌颂。
I will sing a new song to thee, O God: upon a psaltery and an instrument of ten strings will I sing praises to thee.
10 你是那拯救君王的； 你是那救仆人大卫脱离害命之刀的。
It is he that giveth salvation to kings: who delivereth David his servant from the hurtful sword.
11 求你救拔我， 救我脱离外邦人的手。 他们的口说谎话； 他们的右手起假誓。
Rid me, and deliver me from the hand of foreigners, whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood:
12 我们的儿子从幼年好像树栽子长大； 我们的女儿如同殿角石， 是按建宫的样式凿成的。
That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth; that our daughters may be as corner stones, polished after the similitude of a palace:
13 我们的仓盈满，能出各样的粮食； 我们的羊在田间孳生千万。
That our barns may be full, affording all manner of store: that our sheep may bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our streets:
14 我们的牛驮着满驮， 没有人闯进来抢夺， 也没有人出去争战； 我们的街市上也没有哭号的声音。
That our oxen may be strong to labour; that there be no breaking in, nor going out; that there be no complaining in our streets.
15 遇见这光景的百姓便为有福！ 有耶和华为他们的 神，这百姓便为有福！
Happy is that people, that is in such a case: yea, happy is that people, whose God is the LORD.
