诗篇第40章

《圣经》诗篇-第40章

诗40:1 【大卫的诗，交与伶长】我曾耐性等候耶和华；他垂听我的呼求。 (串)诗27:14;37:7|诗39:12

†[吕]我曾切切等候着永恒主；他倾向于我，听我的呼救。

†[思]我切诚恳地期待了上主，他便垂顾俯听了我的哀诉。

†[当代]我耐心等候上帝，祂就倾听我的呼求。

†[新译]我曾切切等候耶和华；他转向我，听了我的呼求。

†[Wlb]【大卫之诗使伶长歌之】我耐望耶和华、彼倾听我呼吁兮、

†[Xdv]我耐心等候上主的帮助；他就垂听我的呼求。

†[Kjv]I waited patiently for the LORD; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.

†[Nkjv]I waited patiently for the LORD; And He inclined to me, And heard my cry.

†[BBE]<To the chief music-maker. Of David. A Psalm.> When I was waiting quietly for the Lord, his heart was turned to me, and he gave ear to my cry.

†[GNT] I waited patiently for the Lord's help; then he listened to me and heard my cry.

†[NIV]I waited patiently for the Lord ; he turned to me and heard my cry.

本会注释　　耐性等候。原文在这里用了一个习语，加强“等侯”的语气。诗人坚持祈祷。我们要“让耶和华快快施展祂的膀臂”（见诗27:14）。
　　他垂听。可以想象下面的画面：起先上帝似乎不理睬诗人；后来祂屈身垂听了他的呼求（见诗31:2；《历代愿望》第356页）。这是十分细腻的修辞手法，描写我们的上帝父亲般的慈爱。

诗40:2 他从祸坑里，从淤泥中，把我拉上来，使我的脚立在磐石上，使我脚步稳当。 (串)诗69:2,14耶38:6|诗27:5|诗37:23

†[吕]他把我从毁灭（原文：怒啸）坑里、从淤泥中拉上，使我的脚立在磐石上，使我的步伐稳当。

†[思]他把我从祸坑与污泥中救出，放我在磐石上，稳定我的脚步。

†[当代]祂把我从绝望的深坑中拉出来，救我脱离泥泞沼泽，使我的脚踏在坚实的石上，又使我步履稳健。

†[新译]他把我从荒芜的坑里，从泥沼中拉上来；他使我的脚站在磐石上，又使我的脚步稳定。

†[Wlb]援我于陷阱、出我于淤泥、立我足于磐石、稳我步履兮、

†[Xdv]他从泥沼和深坑中把我拉出来；他把我安置在盘石上，使我安全稳妥。

†[Kjv]He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.

†[Nkjv]He also brought me up out of a horrible pit, Out of the miry clay, And set my feet upon a rock, And established my steps.

†[BBE]He took me up out of a deep waste place, out of the soft and sticky earth; he put my feet on a rock, and made my steps certain.

†[GNT] He pulled me out of a dangerous pit, out of the deadly quicksand. He set me safely on a rock and made me secure.

†[NIV]He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand.

本会注释　　祸坑。直译是“吵闹的坑”。诗人可能想到又黑又深的洞窟，里面有水流轰鸣，发出可怕的声音，没有得救的指望。但上帝的膀臂足以把他拉出来。
　　淤泥。坑底并不坚实，好让诗人在孤寂之中站立。周围尽是淤泥（见诗69:2,14,15）。他越是挣扎着要出来，就陷得越深。
　　在磐石上。与淤泥形成对照。诗人坚立在磐石之上（见诗27:5），可以安全地行走（见诗37:23）。

诗40:3 他使我口唱新歌，就是赞美我们上帝的话。许多人必看见而惧怕，并要倚靠耶和华。 (串)诗33:3|诗52:6;64:9

†[吕]他将新的歌赐与我口中，就是颂赞我们之上帝的歌；许多人看见，必起了敬畏的心，来倚靠永恒主。

†[思]他将新歌置于我口，为赞美我们的天主！众人见了起敬起畏，都将全心信赖上主。

†[当代]祂赐给我一首新歌，赞美我们的上帝；人听了祂为我做的奇事，便肃然生畏，并且要信靠祂。

†[新译]他使我口唱新歌，赞美我们的　神；许多人看见了，就必惧怕，并且要倚靠耶和华。

†[Wlb]使我口讴新歌、颂我上帝、多人见之、寅畏而恃耶和华兮、

†[Xdv]他教我唱新歌，唱颂赞上帝的歌。许多看见的人都肃然起敬，愿意信靠上主。

†[Kjv]And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.

†[Nkjv]He has put a new song in my mouth-- Praise to our God; Many will see it and fear, And will trust in the LORD.

†[BBE]And he put a new song in my mouth, even praise to our God; numbers have seen it with fear, and put their faith in the Lord.

†[GNT] He taught me to sing a new song, a song of praise to our God. Many who see this will take warning and will put their trust in the Lord.

†[NIV]He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see and fear and put their trust in the Lord .

本会注释　　新歌。上帝给了诗人赞美他天父的新理由。《诗篇》中经常提到唱新歌（诗33:3；96:1；98:1；144:9）。亲近上帝的基督徒，每天会得到赞美祂的新理由（见哀3:22,23）。赎民的歌将是一首新歌，是个人经验之歌，是胜利之歌。
　　我们上帝。诗人在赞美时把他的同胞包括在内（见约20:17）。
　　要倚靠。许多人将看见上帝拯救了诗人，从而也学会信靠祂。人们接受基督为救主，是因为他们看见祂为别人所做的事。得救的人是基督教最好的证据（见《服务真诠》第470页；《证言》卷九第21页）。保罗和西拉夜间的歌声，使众囚犯的心都转向了上帝（徒16:25）。

诗40:4 那倚靠耶和华、不理会狂傲和偏向虚假之辈的，这人便为有福！ (串)何3:1

†[吕]那将倚靠寄托于永恒主的、这人有福阿！他不向慕狂傲之辈（有古卷：虚无的神），也不背离退落于虚谎。

†[思]凡全心依靠上主，不对傲慢倾慕，且又不依附虚伪的，这人真有福！

†[当代]信靠主的人一定蒙福，他们没有误信骄傲自大、信靠假神的人。

†[新译]那倚靠耶和华，不转向高傲和偏向虚谎的人的，这人是有福的。

†[Wlb]惟恃耶和华、不从骄泰虚伪之辈、斯人其有福兮、

†[Xdv]一心信靠上主的人多么幸福啊！他不倾向偶像，也不依附拜假神的人。

†[Kjv]Blessed is that man that maketh the LORD his trust, and respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.

†[Nkjv]Blessed is that man who makes the LORD his trust, And does not respect the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.

†[BBE]Happy is the man who has faith in the Lord, and does not give honour to the men of pride or to those who are turned away to deceit.

†[GNT] Happy are those who trust the Lord, who do not turn to idols or join those who worship false gods.

†[NIV]Blessed is the man who makes the Lord his trust, who does not look to the proud, to those who turn aside to false gods.

本会注释　　有福。见诗1:1注释。
　　人（geber）“有生命力的人”。
　　不理会。或“不倾向”。

诗40:5 耶和华我的上帝啊，你所行的奇事，并你向我们所怀的意念甚多，不能向你陈明；若要陈明，其事不可胜数。 (串)伯5:9|诗139:17赛55:8|伯5:9诗71:15;139:18

†[吕]永恒主我的上帝阿，你奇妙的作为、你行的许多大事、你向我们所怀的意念、没有甚么能跟你并列的。我要讲述或说明，则多到不能数算。

†[思]上主，我的天主！你行的异事，真令人不知几许！你对我们的计划，无人能与你相辅，我纵愿宣扬申述，也多得不可胜数。

†[当代]主我的上帝啊，你多次为我们施行奇事，又顾念我们，有谁能与你相比呢？你奇妙的作为实在是不能胜数啊！

†[新译]耶和华我的　神啊！你所行的奇事，并你向我们所怀的意念很多，没有人可以和你相比；如果我要述说陈明，也多到不能胜数。

†[Wlb]耶和华我上帝欤、尔所作之妙工、及向我之意念甚多、不能悉陈、若欲称述、不可胜数兮、

†[Xdv]上主──我的上帝啊！你为我们成就了许多大事；有谁能跟你相比呢！你为我们设想的奇妙计划要数说也数说不尽。

†[Kjv]Many, O LORD my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done, and thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.

†[Nkjv]Many, O LORD my God, are Your wonderful works Which You have done; And Your thoughts toward us Cannot be recounted to You in order; If I would declare and speak of them, They are more than can be numbered.

†[BBE]O Lord my God, great are the wonders which you have done in your thought for us; it is not possible to put them out in order before you; when I would give an account of them, their number is greater than I may say.

†[GNT] You have done many things for us, O Lord our God; there is no one like you! You have made many wonderful plans for us. I could never speak of them all - their number is so great!

†[NIV]Many, O Lord my God, are the wonders you have done. The things you planned for us no one can recount to you; were I to speak and tell of them, they would be too many to declare.

本会注释　　甚多。本诗的启示是回顾上帝向诗人彰显的特殊恩慈。上帝赐下的福气很多；诗人无法把它们全部排列数算。上帝赐给人类的众多福气是人所无法点数的。我们无论怎样尝试，都清点不尽所得到的福气。尝试统计是一件好事，但我们没有足够的时间把它们数完。因为我们一边数，一边又有新的福气倾降在我们身上。如果人不告诉别人上帝如何帮助他，那是错误的谦虚（参《使徒行述》第124,125页）。

诗40:6 祭物和礼物，你不喜悦；你已经开通我的耳朵。燔祭和赎罪祭非你所要。 (串)伯33:16;36:10,15赛50:4-5|撒上15:22诗51:16来10:6

†[吕]宰祭和供物、你不喜爱；你只为我挖通了耳朵好听从；燔祭和解罪祭你也不要。

†[思]牺牲与素祭已非你所喜，就开了我的耳朵；全燔之祭以及赎罪之祭，也巳非你所要。

†[当代]你向世人所要求的，不是祭物和奉献。燔祭不是你所要的，你悦纳了我终身的事奉。

†[新译]祭品和礼物不是你喜悦的。你开通了我的耳朵；燔祭和赎罪祭，不是你要求的。

†[Wlb]祭祀礼仪、非尔所悦、燔祭罪祭、非尔所欲、尔启我耳兮、

†[Xdv]你不要牲祭和供物；你不要烧化祭和赎罪祭。你却赐给我聆听的耳朵，

†[Kjv]Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast thou opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.

†[Nkjv]Sacrifice and offering You did not desire; My ears You have opened. Burnt offering and sin offering You did not require.

†[BBE]You had no desire for offerings of beasts or fruits of the earth; ears you made for me: for burned offerings and sin offerings you made no request.

†[GNT] You do not want sacrifices and offerings; you do not ask for animals burned whole on the altar or for sacrifices to take away sins. Instead, you have given me ears to hear you,

†[NIV]Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but my ears you have pierced , ; burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not require.

本会注释　　祭物（zebach）。流血的祭牲。
　　礼物。诗人想知道怎样才能感谢上帝对他的奇妙所为。他得结论说，上帝对他的要求，超过圣殿侍奉的一切祭物。这种更高的侍奉是以下几节的主题。
　　你已经开通（karah）。“挖空”，“挖”。似乎指上帝开通了祂仆人的耳朵，使祂与仆人之间可以毫无阻碍地沟通（见赛35:5；50:5）。这里并不是指古代用锥子凿穿仆人的耳朵，象征他永远归属主人的做法。那只是凿穿外耳的边缘，见出21:6。本节是指清除耳道内的一切障碍，使耳朵向上帝的道敞开。顺从胜过献祭（见诗51:16,17）。
　　来10:5-7引用诗40:6-8。但所引的是七十士译本，而不是希伯来原文。来10:5不是“你已经开通我的耳朵”（诗40:6），而是“你曾给我预备了身体”。这是七十士译本的梵谛冈抄本，西奈抄本，亚力山太抄本的译法（见《历代愿望》第23页）。亚居拉文本，西马库斯文本和狄奥多田文本则与希伯来语一样，均译为“耳朵”。
　　燔祭。被火烧尽的祭物（见利1:3注释）。参赛1:11。
　　赎罪祭。见利4:1-35（见利4:2注释）。

诗40:7 那时我说：看哪，我来了！我的事在经卷上已经记载了。

†[吕]那时我说：“看哪，我来了──经卷上已为我规定了──

†[思]于是我说：“你看，我已到来！关于我，书卷上已有记载：

†[当代]于是我说：“看哪，我已经来了，就像先知所预言的一样，我来了。

†[新译]那时我说：“看哪！我来了，经卷上已经记载我的事；

†[Wlb]我则曰、我来矣、命我之言、经卷载之兮、

†[Xdv]所以我回答说：我在这里！你对我的指示都记在法律书上（或译：我对你的虔诚都记录在你书上）。

†[Kjv]Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,

†[Nkjv]Then I said, "Behold, I come; In the scroll of the book it is written of me.

†[BBE]Then I said, See, I come; it is recorded of me in the roll of the book,

†[GNT] and so I answered, "Here I am; your instructions for me are in the book of the Law.

†[NIV]Then I said, "Here I am, I have come- it is written about me in the scroll.

本会注释　　那时我说。就是他的耳朵开启，能理解上帝的信息之时（本句在来10:7中指弥赛亚）。
　　看哪，我来了。指弥赛亚的第一次降临。在诗人的时代，“经卷”指预言弥赛亚来临的摩西著作（见创3:15；申18:15；路24:27）。

诗40:8 我的上帝啊，我乐意照你的旨意行；你的律法在我心里。 (串)诗37:31耶31:33

†[吕]我的上帝阿，我乐意行你的旨意；你的律法都在我脏腑里呢。”

†[思]我的天主，承行你的旨意为我所喜爱，你的法律常存于我的心怀。”

†[当代]我的上帝啊，我乐于遵行你的旨意，因为你的律法铭刻在我的心上！”

†[新译]我的　神啊！我乐意遵行你的旨意；你的律法常在我的心里。”

†[Wlb]我上帝欤、尔旨我乐遵、尔律在我心兮、

†[Xdv]我的上帝啊，我多么乐意遵行你的旨意！我把你的教训谨记在心里。

†[Kjv]I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.

†[Nkjv]I delight to do Your will, O my God, And Your law is within my heart."

†[BBE]My delight is to do your pleasure, O my God; truly, your law is in my heart.

†[GNT] How I love to do your will, my God! I keep your teaching in my heart."

†[NIV]I desire to do your will, O my God; your law is within my heart."

本会注释　　我乐意。基督乐意顺从祂的天父；祂的顺从是快乐的。当律法刻在人的心中时，顺从就成了乐事。律法不再是表面上敷衍应付的法规，而是被视为上帝品性的副本。真正认识上帝会使人欣赏祂的品格，并且希望予以效法。了解救赎的无限代价，会使人更加喜爱上帝的品格。基督徒的最高快乐，就是在生活上与天国的原则保持和谐（见约壹5:3；见箴3:1注释）。
　　律法（torah）。见箴3:1注释。
　　在我心里。耶稣遵守上帝的律法是出于情感和理智，心思和意念（见申4:29；6:5）。
　　第6-8指出了弥赛亚教训的主要目的。对于犹太人来说，外表就是宗教的全部。耶稣教导说，这些只是达到目的的手段。而目的本身是与上帝的旨意和谐的。救赎计划的根本目的就是在人心中恢复上帝的形象（《教育论》第15页）。任何使这个目的从属于仪式和传统的宗教制度，都是模糊了真宗教的基本宗旨。

诗40:9 我在大会中宣传公义的佳音；我必不止住我的嘴唇。耶和华啊，这是你所知道的。 (串)诗22:25;35:18|伯7:11|诗119:13|书22:22

†[吕]我要在多人大众中将上帝救人之义气传为好消息；我的嘴唇我必不制止；永恒主阿，惟有你知道。

†[思]在盛大的集会中，我宣扬了你的正义，看，我并没有闭口不言，上主，你全知悉。

†[当代]我已经将你公义的信息告诉了每一个人；主啊，你清楚地知道我并没有闭口不去宣扬。

†[新译]我要在大会中传扬公义的福音；我必不禁止我的嘴唇；耶和华啊！这是你知道的。

†[Wlb]我于大会中、宣公义之嘉音、必不缄口、尔耶和华所知兮、

†[Xdv]上主啊，在你子民的聚会中，我宣扬你拯救的佳音；你知道，我要不断地传扬。

†[Kjv]I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: lo, I have not refrained my lips, O LORD, thou knowest.

†[Nkjv]I have proclaimed the good news of righteousness In the great assembly; Indeed, I do not restrain my lips, O LORD, You Yourself know.

†[BBE]I have given news of righteousness in the great meeting; O Lord, you have knowledge that I have not kept back my words.

†[GNT] In the assembly of all your people, Lord, I told the good news that you save us. You know that I will never stop telling it.

†[NIV]I proclaim righteousness in the great assembly; I do not seal my lips, as you know, O Lord .

本会注释　　本节说明基督徒向别人传福音的责任。单留给自己的，不是真正的公义。第9,10节用了五个动词，表达诗人急于要感激上帝：“我……宣传”，“我不止住”，“我未曾……藏”，“我已陈明”，“我……未曾隐瞒”。

诗40:10 我未曾把你的公义藏在心里；我已陈明你的信实和你的救恩；我在大会中未曾隐瞒你的慈爱和诚实。 (串)诗36:5;89:1-2|诗57:3;61:7;115:1箴20:28

†[吕]你救人之义气我未隐藏于心中；你的忠信和拯救我已经说出；你的坚爱和忠信我未曾向多人大众隐瞒。

†[思]我从没有将你的正义隐蔽在心间，对你的忠厚和救援时时各处宣传；对於你的慈爱和忠义，在盛会中我没有隐蔽，

†[当代]我没有把这大好的信息藏在心里我在会中宣扬了你的慈爱和信实。

†[新译]我没有把你的公义隐藏在心里；我已经述说了你的信实和救恩；在大会中，我没有隐瞒你的慈爱和诚实。

†[Wlb]尔之公义、我未匿之于心、尔之信实拯教、我已宣之、尔之慈惠诚实、于大会中、我未隐之兮、

†[Xdv]我不曾把你拯救的信息据为己有，却常常宣讲你的信实和帮助；在盛大的聚会中，我没有蒙蔽你信实不变的爱。

†[Kjv]I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared thy faithfulness and thy salvation: I have not concealed thy lovingkindness and thy truth from the great congregation.

†[Nkjv]I have not hidden Your righteousness within my heart; I have declared Your faithfulness and Your salvation; I have not concealed Your lovingkindness and Your truth From the great assembly.

†[BBE]Your righteousness has not been folded away in my heart; I have made clear your true word and your salvation; I have not kept secret your mercy or your faith from the great meeting.

†[GNT] I have not kept the news of salvation to myself; I have always spoken of your faithfulness and help. In the assembly of all your people I have not been silent about your loyalty and constant love.

†[NIV]I do not hide your righteousness in my heart; I speak of your faithfulness and salvation. I do not conceal your love and your truth from the great assembly.

本会注释　　自私地把自己的信仰隐藏起来，不让别人分享，这不是基督的宗教。“基督的爱藏在心中，就像芬芳之气，是隐瞒不住的”（《喜乐的泉源》第82页）。

诗40:11 耶和华啊，求你不要向我止住你的慈悲！愿你的慈爱和诚实常常保佑我！

†[吕]你呢、永恒主阿，求你也不要向我制止你的慈怜；愿你的坚爱和忠信不断地守护我。

†[思]上主，求你对我不要撤回你的怜悯，愿你的慈爱和忠诚对我时加保存。

†[当代]主啊，求你不要收回你的怜悯，我惟一的盼望就是你的大爱和信实。

†[新译]耶和华啊！求你的怜悯不要向我止息；愿你的慈爱和诚实常常保护我。

†[Wlb]耶和华欤、尔之矜恤、勿靳于我、尔之慈惠诚实、恒祐我兮、

†[Xdv]上主啊，我知道你永不收回你对我的慈爱；你信实不变的爱始终支持我。

†[Kjv]Withhold not thou thy tender mercies from me, O LORD: let thy lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve me.

†[Nkjv]Do not withhold Your tender mercies from me, O LORD; Let Your lovingkindness and Your truth continually preserve me.

†[BBE]Take not away your gentle mercies from me, O Lord; let your mercy and your faith keep me safe for ever.

†[GNT] Lord, I know you will never stop being merciful to me. Your love and loyalty will always keep me safe.

†[NIV]Do not withhold your mercy from me, O Lord ; may your love and your truth always protect me.

诗40:12 因有无数的祸患围困我，我的罪孽追上了我，使我不能昂首；这罪孽比我的头发还多，我就心寒胆战。 (串)拉9:6诗38:4|诗69:4

†[吕]因为有祸患围绕着我到不可胜数；我的罪罚把我赶上了，使我不能看见；比我的头发还多，以致我胆力尽失。

†[思]因为，四周困迫我的灾祸，实在不可胜数；我的罪过紧握着我，使我无法目睹；数目比我头发还多，真使我心痛苦。

†[当代]有算不清的罪恶围困著我，我的过犯也捆绑著我，使我羞愧得无地自容。我的心在我里面战栗。

†[新译]因有无数的祸患围绕着我；我的罪孽追上了我，使我不能看见；它们比我的头发还多，以致我心惊胆战。

†[Wlb]灾祸环我、不可胜计、罪戾迫我、不能昂首、其数多越于发、我心丧失兮、

†[Xdv]我被数不清的灾难围困着；我的罪过追上了我，叫我抬不起头来；罪过比我的头发还多，我已经丧尽了勇气。

†[Kjv]For innumerable evils have compassed me about: mine iniquities have taken hold upon me, so that I am not able to look up; they are more than the hairs of mine head: therefore my heart faileth me.

†[Nkjv]For innumerable evils have surrounded me; My iniquities have overtaken me, so that I am not able to look up; They are more than the hairs of my head; Therefore my heart fails me.

†[BBE]For unnumbered evils are round about me; my sins have overtaken me, so that I am bent down with their weight; they are more than the hairs of my head, my strength is gone because of them.

†[GNT] I am surrounded by many troubles - too many to count! My sins have caught up with me, and I can no longer see; they are more than the hairs of my head, and I have lost my courage.

†[NIV]For troubles without number surround me; my sins have overtaken me, and I cannot see. They are more than the hairs of my head, and my heart fails within me.

诗40:13 耶和华啊，求你开恩搭救我！耶和华啊，求你速速帮助我！ (串)本篇13-17诗70:1-5|诗22:19;38:22;71:12

†[吕]永恒主阿，请援救我哦；永恒主阿，快帮助我哦。

†[思]上主，求你开恩救我，上主，求你速来助我。

†[当代]主啊，求你拯救我，快来帮助我！

†[新译]耶和华啊！求你开恩搭救我；耶和华啊！求你快来帮助我。

†[Wlb]耶和华欤、以救我为悦、耶和华欤、其助我维亟兮、

†[Xdv]上主啊，求你救我！求你快来帮助我！

†[Kjv]Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me: O LORD, make haste to help me.

†[Nkjv]Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me; O LORD, make haste to help me!

†[BBE]Be pleased, O Lord, to take me out of danger; O Lord, come quickly and give me help.

†[GNT] Save me, Lord! Help me now!

†[NIV]Be pleased, O Lord , to save me; O Lord , come quickly to help me.

本会注释　　求你开恩。第13-17节可与诗70篇对照（见该处注释）。“求你开恩”（rasah）的词根在第8节译为“旨意”（直译是“乐意”）。
　　速速。见诗22:19；38:22。

诗40:14 愿那些寻找我、要灭我命的，一同抱愧蒙羞！愿那些喜悦我受害的，退后受辱！ (串)诗6:10;35:4,26;70:2;71:13,24;129:5

†[吕]愿那寻索我命要攫取的、一概失望受辱；愿那对我幸灾乐祸的、退后狼狈。

†[思]愿那些谋图杀害我的人，一同蒙耻受辱，愿那些喜欢我遭难的人，一起含羞退走！

†[当代]求你使所有想伤害残杀我的人蒙羞受辱，叫他们败退溃散。求你使这些侮慢我的人失败蒙羞。

†[新译]愿那些寻找我，要毁灭我命的，一同抱愧蒙羞；愿那些喜悦我遭害的，退后受辱。

†[Wlb]索我命者、愿其同蒙羞耻、幸我灾者、愿其却退受辱兮、

†[Xdv]愿想杀我的人失败狼狈！愿对我幸灾乐祸的人失望蒙羞！

†[Kjv]Let them be ashamed and confounded together that seek after my soul to destroy it; let them be driven backward and put to shame that wish me evil.

†[Nkjv]Let them be ashamed and brought to mutual confusion Who seek to destroy my life; Let them be driven backward and brought to dishonor Who wish me evil.

†[BBE]Let those who go after my soul for its destruction have shame and trouble together; let them be turned back and made foolish who take pleasure in my trouble.

†[GNT] May those who try to kill me be completely defeated and confused. May those who are happy because of my troubles be turned back and disgraced.

†[NIV]May all who seek to take my life be put to shame and confusion; may all who desire my ruin be turned back in disgrace.

本会注释　　抱愧。见诗35:4,26。

诗40:15 愿那些对我说阿哈、阿哈的，因羞愧而败亡！ (串)诗35:21,25;70:3

†[吕]愿那讥诮我说：“阿哈！阿哈！”的都因失望而惊骇（有古卷：往后退）。

†[思]愿那些哈哈戏笑我的人，都满面羞惭地惊惶失神！

†[当代]－

†[新译]愿那些对我说：“啊哈！啊哈！”的，都因羞愧而惊惶。

†[Wlb]向我曰嘻嘻者、愿其惭怍而惊骇兮、

†[Xdv]愿那些嘲笑我的人都惊惶败退！

†[Kjv]Let them be desolate for a reward of their shame that say unto me, Aha, aha.

本会注释　　顾念（chashab）。该词词根在第5节译为“意念”。
　　不要耽延。参第13节。诗歌忧郁的结尾带着感人的笔触。诗人的信心坚持到最后。在苦难中我们可以知道上帝顾念我们并拯救我们。
