Psalms 40

Ge'ez original · 13 verses · some words can be tapped for a gloss

← ch. 39ch. 41 →
📖 This chapter exists in 3 other originals — side by side (Hebrew Old Testament, Septuagint, Vulgate)
⚠️ Psalms use Masoretic (Hebrew) numbering, which differs from printed Vulgate and Septuagint editions: Ps 40 here = Ps 39 in print. Convert before citing a printed edition.
ℹ️ This corpus has no morphological tagging. Glosses are matched by word form against a dictionary — a match does not prove it is the same word (an inflected form can coincide with another word’s lemma). Verify against the original and a specialist lexicon where precision matters.
⚠️ The Chinese and English alongside are the CUV and the WEB, both translated from the Masoretic Text; they follow a different textual tradition from the Greek and Latin shown here and will disagree in places.

40:5
ፍጻሜ ፡ መዝሙር ፡ ዘዳዊት ። ጸኒሐ ፡ ጸናሕክዎ ፡ ለእግዚአብሔር ፤ ሰምዐኒ ፡ ወተመይጠኒ ፡
Many, Yahweh, my God, are the wonderful works which you have done, and your thoughts which are toward us. They can’t be declared back to you. If I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be counted.
耶和華-我的上帝啊,你所行的奇事, 並你向我們所懷的意念甚多,不能向你陳明; 若要陳明,其事不可勝數。
40:6
ወሰምዐኒ ፡ ቃለ ፡ ስእለትየ ። ወአውፅአኒ ፡ እምዐዘቅተ ፡ ሕርትምና ፡ ወእምጽብረ ፡ ዐምዓም ፤
Sacrifice and offering you didn’t desire. You have opened my ears. You have not required burnt offering and sin offering.
祭物和禮物,你不喜悅; 你已經開通我的耳朵。 燔祭和贖罪祭非你所要。
40:7
ወአቀሞኒ ፡ ውስተ ፡ ኰኵሕ ፡ ለእገርየ ፡ ወአጽንዖኒ ፡ ለመካይድየ ።
Then I said, “Behold, I have come. It is written about me in the book in the scroll.
那時我說:看哪,我來了! 我的事在經卷上已經記載了。
40:8
ወወደየ ፡ ውስተ ፡ አፉየ ፡ ስብሓተ ፡ ሐዲሰ ፡ ስብሓቲሁ ፡ ለአምላክነ ፤
I delight to do your will, my God. Yes, your law is within my heart.”
我的上帝啊,我樂意照你的旨意行; 你的律法在我心裏。
40:9
ይርአዩ ፡ ብዙኃን ፡ ወይፍርሁ ፤ ወይትወከሉ ፡ በእግዚአብሔር ።
I have proclaimed glad news of righteousness in the great assembly. Behold, I will not seal my lips, Yahweh, you know.
我在大會中宣傳公義的佳音; 我必不止住我的嘴唇。 耶和華啊,這是你所知道的。
40:10
ብፁዕ ፡ ብእሲ ፡ ዘስመ ፡ እግዚአብሔር ፡ ትውክልቱ ፤ ወዘኢነጸረ ፡ ውስተ ፡ ከንቱ ፡ ውስተ ፡ መዐት ፡ ወሐሰት ።
I have not hidden your righteousness within my heart. I have declared your faithfulness and your salvation. I have not concealed your loving kindness and your truth from the great assembly.
我未曾把你的公義藏在心裏; 我已陳明你的信實和你的救恩; 我在大會中未曾隱瞞你的慈愛和誠實。
40:11
ብዙኀ ፡ ገበርከ ፡ እግዚኦ ፡ አምላኪየ ፡ መንክረከ ፡ ወአልቦ ፡ ዘይመስሎ ፡ ለሕሊናከ ፤
Don’t withhold your tender mercies from me, Yahweh. Let your loving kindness and your truth continually preserve me.
耶和華啊,求你不要向我止住你的慈悲! 願你的慈愛和誠實常常保佑我!
40:12
አይደዕኩ ፡ ወነገርኩ ፡ ወበዝኃ ፡ እምኈልቍ ።
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. My heart has failed me.
因有無數的禍患圍困我, 我的罪孽追上了我,使我不能昂首; 這罪孽比我的頭髮還多, 我就心寒膽戰。
40:13
መሥዋዕተ ፡ ወቍርባነ ፡ ኢፈቀድከ ፡ ሥጋሰ ፡ አንጽሕ ፡ ሊተ ፤
Be pleased, Yahweh, to deliver me. Hurry to help me, Yahweh.
耶和華啊,求你開恩搭救我! 耶和華啊,求你速速幫助我!
40:14
መሥዋዕተ ፡ ዘበእንተ ፡ ኃጢአት ፡ ኢሠመርከ ። ውእቱ ፡ ጊዜ ፡ እቤ ፡ ነየ ፡ መጻእኩ ፤
Let them be disappointed and confounded together who seek after my soul to destroy it. Let them be turned backward and brought to dishonor who delight in my hurt.
願那些尋找我、要滅我命的,一同抱愧蒙羞! 願那些喜悅我受害的,退後受辱!
40:15
ውስተ ፡ ርእሰ ፡ መጽሐፍ ፡ ተጽሕፈ ፡ በእንቲአየ ። ከመ ፡ እንግር ፡ ፈቃደከ ፡ መከርኩ ፡ አምላኪየ ፤ ወሕግከኒ ፡ በማእከለ ፡ ከርሥየ ።
Let them be desolate by reason of their shame that tell me, “Aha! Aha!”
願那些對我說阿哈、阿哈的, 因羞愧而敗亡!
40:16
ዜነውኩ ፡ ጽድቀ ፡ በማኅበር ፡ ዐቢይ ፡ ናሁ ፡ ኢከላእኩ ፡ ከናፍርየ ፤ እግዚኦ ፡ ለሊከ ፡ ታአምር ፡ ጽድቅየ ።
Let all those who seek you rejoice and be glad in you. Let such as love your salvation say continually, “Let Yahweh be exalted!”
願一切尋求你的,因你高興歡喜! 願那些喜愛你救恩的,常說:當尊耶和華為大!
