Psalms 1 Of David. 1 Grant me justice, LORD! I have walked without blame. In the LORD I have trusted; I have not faltered. 达味作。上主，求你替我主持正义，因我行动无辜，我曾毫不犹豫地全心依赖了上主。 2 Test me, LORD, and try me; search my heart and mind. 上主，你尽管对我试验，对我查考，你尽管对我的五内和心脏探讨； 3 Your love is before my eyes; I walk guided by your faithfulness. 原来你的慈爱常摆在我眼前，我常遵照你的真理行走盘桓。 4 I do not sit with deceivers, nor with hypocrites do I mingle. 我决不与虚伪的人同坐，也决不与欺诈的人合作； 5 I hate the company of evildoers; with the wicked I do not sit. 我常痛恨败类的集会，我也决不与恶人同席。 6 2 I will wash my hands in innocence and walk round your altar, LORD, 上主我要洗手表明无罪，我环游在你的祭坛周围， 7 Lifting my voice in thanks, recounting all your wondrous deeds. 为能高声向你称扬赞颂，传述你的一切奇妙化工。 8 LORD, I love the house where you dwell, the tenting-place of your glory. 上主，我喜爱你所住的殿堂，就是你那荣耀寄居的地方。 9 Do not take me away with sinners, nor my life with the violent. 求你不要把我的灵魂，和罪人们一起收去；求你不要把我的生命，与流血者一起铲除。 10 Their hands carry out their schemes; their right hands are full of bribes. 因为他们的手中尽是罪污，他们的右手满是贿赂； 11 But I walk without blame; redeem me, be gracious to me! 我却一向行动无辜，求你救我，求你怜恤。 12 My feet stand on level ground; in the great assembly I will praise the LORD . Footnotes（注解）
1 [Psalm 26] Like a priest washing before approaching the altar (Exodus 30:17-21), the psalmist seeks God's protection upon entering the temple. Psalm 26:1-3, matched by Psalm 26:11-12, remind God of past integrity while asking for purification; Psalm 26:4-5, matched by Psalm 26:9-10, pray for inclusion among the just; Psalm 26:6-8, the center of the poem, express the joy in God at the heart of all ritual. 2 [6] I will wash my hands: the washing of hands was a liturgical act (Exodus 30:19, 21; 40:31-32), symbolic of inner as well as outer cleanness. Cf Isaiah 1:16. |
