71:1 耶和华阿,我投靠你。求你叫我永不羞愧。
In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust: let me never be put to confusion.
71:2 求你凭你的公义搭救我,救拔我,侧耳听我,拯救我。
Deliver me in thy righteousness, and cause me to escape: incline thine ear unto me, and save me.
71:3 求你作我常住的磐石。你已经命定要救我。因为你是我的岩石,我的山寨。
Be thou my strong habitation, whereunto I may continually resort: thou hast given commandment to save me; for thou art my rock and my fortress.
71:4 我的神阿,求你救我脱离恶人的手,脱离不义和残暴之人的手。
Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.
71:5 主耶和华阿,你是我所盼望的。从我年幼你是我所倚靠的。
For thou art my hope, O Lord GOD: thou art my trust from my youth.
71:6 我从出母胎被你扶持。使我出母腹的是你。我必常常赞美你。
By thee have I been holden up from the womb: thou art he that took me out of my mother’s bowels: my praise shall be continually of thee.
71:7 许多人以我为怪。但你是我坚固的避难所。
I am as a wonder unto many; but thou art my strong refuge.
71:8 你的赞美,你的荣耀,终日必满了我的口。
Let my mouth be filled with thy praise and with thy honour all the day.
71:9 我年老的时候,求你不要丢弃我。我力气衰弱的时候,求你不要离弃我。
Cast me not off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength faileth.
71:10 我的仇敌议论我。那些窥探要害我命的彼此商议,
For mine enemies speak against me; and they that lay wait for my soul take counsel together,
71:11 说,神已经离弃他。我们追赶他,捉拿他吧。因为没有人搭救。
Saying, God hath forsaken him: persecute and take him; for there is none to deliver him.
71:12 神阿,求你不要远离我。我的神阿,求你速速帮助我。
O God, be not far from me: O my God, make haste for my help.
71:13 愿那与我性命为敌的,羞愧被灭。愿那谋害我的,受辱蒙羞。
Let them be confounded and consumed that are adversaries to my soul; let them be covered with reproach and dishonour that seek my hurt.
71:14 我却要常常盼望,并要越发赞美你。
But I will hope continually, and will yet praise thee more and more.
71:15 我的口终日要述说你的公义,和你的救恩。因我不计其数。
My mouth shall shew forth thy righteousness and thy salvation all the day; for I know not the numbers thereof.
71:16 我要来说主耶和华大能的事。我单要题说你的公义。
I will go in the strength of the Lord GOD: I will make mention of thy righteousness, even of thine only.
71:17 神阿,自我年幼时,你就教训我。直到如今,我传扬你奇妙的作为。
O God, thou hast taught me from my youth: and hitherto have I declared thy wondrous works.
71:18 神阿,我到年老发白的时候,求你不要离弃我,等我将你的能力指示下代,将你的大能指示后世的人。
Now also when I am old and greyheaded, O God, forsake me not; until I have shewed thy strength unto this generation, and thy power to every one that is to come.
71:19 神阿,你的公义甚高。行过大事的神阿,谁能像你。
Thy righteousness also, O God, is very high, who hast done great things: O God, who is like unto thee!
71:20 你是叫我们多经历重大急难的,必使我们复活。从地的深处救上来。
Thou, which hast shewed me great and sore troubles, shalt quicken me again, and shalt bring me up again from the depths of the earth.
71:21 求你使我越发昌大,又转来安慰我。
Thou shalt increase my greatness, and comfort me on every side.
71:22 我的神阿,我要鼓瑟称赞你,称赞你的诚实。以色列的圣者阿,我要弹琴歌颂你。
I will also praise thee with the psaltery, even thy truth, O my God: unto thee will I sing with the harp, O thou Holy One of Israel.
71:23 我歌颂你的时候,我的嘴唇,和你所赎我的灵魂,都必欢呼。
My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing unto thee; and my soul, which thou hast redeemed.
71:24 并且我的舌头,必终日讲论你的公义,因为那些谋害我的人,已经蒙羞受辱了。
My tongue also shall talk of thy righteousness all the day long: for they are confounded, for they are brought unto shame, that seek my hurt.
诗篇71参考
多少次祷告蒙应允,多少次难关靠主过,回望一生,我……
71篇 诗人已老迈。他把自己的一生看为“奇事”,一个神圣的象徵,神在自己身上的作为的见证(71:7-18)。我们要记住:神对我们一生的赐福,将使我们看到神在岁月流逝中连绵不断的恩典。所以我们要相信神所给予的未来,同其他人分享跟随神的益处。
坚信的生命表现在常盼望、常感恩赞美上,我有这样积极的人生观吗?
71:14 我们到了迟暮之年就会认识到,多年来一直帮助我们的是神。我们体衰力竭,就更需要神。我们绝不能绝望,无论我们受到的体能限制多么严重,我们都要继续向神求助。对神心存盼望能使我们继续向前,继续事奉。
到年老发白的时候,我仍愿意成为福音流通的管子吗?我仍可以吗?
71:18 不管年纪多么大,都仍有事奉神的机会。尽管年纪会限制我们的一些体力活动,但是不会终止我们向神祷告,也不会终止我们向别人(尤其是儿童)讲述我们在生活中看到的神的事情。
