Psalms 17

Greek original · 15 verses · some words can be tapped for a gloss

📖 This chapter exists in 3 other originals — side by side (Hebrew Old Testament, Vulgate, Ge'ez Bible)

⚠️ Psalms use Masoretic (Hebrew) numbering, which differs from printed Vulgate and Septuagint editions: Ps 17 here = Ps 16 in print. Convert before citing a printed edition.

ℹ️ This corpus has no verse-level morphological tagging. Lemmas come mainly from word-level tagging of other books in the same language (not from this verse), falling back to dictionary form-matching for the rest. Rare homographs can still be misread; verify against the original and a specialist lexicon where precision matters.

ℹ️ The Chinese and English alongside are this site's own translation, made directly from the original text on this page (not the CUV or the WEB, which follow the Masoretic Text and a different textual tradition).

17:1

προσευχὴ τοῦ Δαυιδ εἰσάκουσον κύριε τῆς δικαιοσύνης μου πρόσχες τῇ δεήσει μου ἐνώτισαι τῆς προσευχῆς μου οὐκ ἐν χείλεσιν δολίοις

A prayer of David. Hear my righteousness, O Lord; attend to my supplication; give ear to my prayer, which is not from deceitful lips.

大衛的禱告。主啊，求你垂聽我的公義，留意我的祈求；求你側耳聽我的禱告，這禱告不是出於詭詐的嘴唇。

17:2

ἐκ προσώπου σου τὸ κρίμα μου ἐξέλθοι οἱ ὀφθαλμοί μου ἰδέτωσαν εὐθύτητας

Let my judgement come forth from your presence; let my eyes behold things upright.

願我的判語從你面前發出；願我的眼睛看見正直的事。

17:3

ἐδοκίμασας τὴν καρδίαν μου ἐπεσκέψω νυκτός ἐπύρωσάς με καὶ οὐχ εὑρέθη ἐν ἐμοὶ ἀδικία

You tested my heart; you visited me by night; you refined me by fire, and no injustice was found in me.

你試驗了我的心，夜間鑒察我，熬煉我，卻在我裡面找不著不義。

17:4

ὅπως ἂν μὴ λαλήσῃ τὸ στόμα μου τὰ ἔργα τῶν ἀνθρώπων διὰ τοὺς λόγους τῶν χειλέων σου ἐγὼ ἐφύλαξα ὁδοὺς σκληράς

So that my mouth might not speak of the works of men, because of the words of your lips I kept hard ways.

好叫我的口不談論人的作為；因你嘴唇的話語，我謹守了艱難的道路。

17:5

κατάρτισαι τὰ διαβήματά μου ἐν ταῖς τρίβοις σου ἵνα μὴ σαλευθῶσιν τὰ διαβήματά μου

Make my steps firm in your paths, that my steps may not be shaken.

求你使我的腳步穩固在你的路徑中，免得我的腳步動搖。

17:6

ἐγὼ ἐκέκραξα ὅτι ἐπήκουσάς μου ὁ θεός κλῖνον τὸ οὖς σου ἐμοὶ καὶ εἰσάκουσον τῶν ῥημάτων μου

I cried out, for you heard me, O God; incline your ear to me and hear my words.

神啊，我曾呼求，因為你應允了我；求你向我側耳，垂聽我的話語。

17:7

θαυμάστωσον τὰ ἐλέη σου ὁ σῴζων τοὺς ἐλπίζοντας ἐπὶ σὲ ἐκ τῶν ἀνθεστηκότων τῇ δεξιᾷ σου

Make your mercies marvellous, you who save those who hope in you from those who resist your right hand.

求你顯出你奇妙的憐憫；你是那位救那些投靠你的人脫離抵擋你右手之人的。

17:8

φύλαξόν με ὡς κόραν ὀφθαλμοῦ ἐν σκέπῃ τῶν πτερύγων σου σκεπάσεις με

Guard me as the pupil of an eye; in the shelter of your wings you will shelter me,

求你保護我，如同保護眼中的瞳人；求你在你翅膀的蔭下遮蔽我，

17:9

ἀπὸ προσώπου ἀσεβῶν τῶν ταλαιπωρησάντων με οἱ ἐχθροί μου τὴν ψυχήν μου περιέσχον

from the face of the ungodly who have afflicted me. My enemies have surrounded my soul.

脫離那些苦害我的不敬虔之人的面；我的仇敵圍困了我的魂。
