Psalms 39
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1(39-1) For the Leader, for Jeduthun. A Psalm of David. (39-2) I said: 'I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue; I will keep a curb upon my mouth, while the wicked is before me.'
1我曾说：我要谨慎我的言行， 免得我舌头犯罪； 恶人在我面前的时候， 我要用嚼环勒住我的口。
2(39-3) I was dumb with silence; I held my peace, had no comfort; and my pain was held in check.
2我默然无声，连好话也不出口； 我的愁苦就发动了，
3(39-4) My heart waxed hot within me; while I was musing, the fire kindled; then spoke I with my tongue:
3我的心在我里面发热。 我默想的时候，火就烧起， 我便用舌头说话。
4(39-5) 'LORD, make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days, what it is; let me know how short-lived I am.
4耶和华啊，求你叫我晓得我身之终！ 我的寿数几何？ 叫我知道我的生命不长！
5(39-6) Behold, Thou hast made my days as hand-breadths; and mine age is as nothing before Thee; surely every man at his best estate is altogether vanity. Selah
5你使我的年日窄如手掌； 我一生的年数，在你面前如同无有。 各人最稳妥的时候，真是全然虚幻。 （细拉）
6(39-7) Surely man walketh as a mere semblance; surely for vanity they are in turmoil; he heapeth up riches, and knoweth not who shall gather them.
6世人行动实系幻影。 他们忙乱，真是枉然； 积蓄 财宝 ，不知将来有谁收取。
7(39-8) And now, Lord, what wait I for? My hope, it is in Thee.
7主啊，如今我等什么呢？ 我的指望在乎你！
8(39-9) Deliver me from all my transgressions; make me not the reproach of the base.
8求你救我脱离一切的过犯， 不要使我受愚顽人的羞辱。
9(39-10) I am dumb, I open not my mouth; because Thou hast done it.
9因我所遭遇的是出于你， 我就默然不语。
10(39-11) Remove Thy stroke from off me; I am consumed by the blow of Thy hand.
10求你把你的责罚从我身上免去； 因你手的责打，我便消灭。
11(39-12) With rebukes dost Thou chasten man for iniquity, and like a moth Thou makest his beauty to consume away; surely every man is vanity. Selah
11你因人的罪恶惩罚他的时候， 叫他的笑容消灭，如 衣 被虫所咬。 世人真是虚幻！ （细拉）
12(39-13) Hear my prayer, O LORD, and give ear unto my cry; keep not silence at my tears; for I am a stranger with Thee, a sojourner, as all my fathers were.
12耶和华啊，求你听我的祷告， 留心听我的呼求！ 我流泪，求你不要静默无声！ 因为我在你面前是客旅， 是寄居的，像我列祖一般。
13(39-14) Look away from me, that I may take comfort, before I go hence, and be no more.'
13求你宽容我， 使我在去而不返之先可以力量复原。
