Psalms 51

Greek original · 20 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 51 here = Ps 50 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).

51:0

ἐν τῷ ἐλθεῖν πρὸς αὐτὸν Ναθαν τὸν προφήτην ἡνίκα εἰσῆλθεν πρὸς Βηρσαβεε

When Nathan the prophet came to him, after he had gone in to Bersabee.

當先知拿單來見他，就是他與拔示巴同房之後。

51:1

ἐλέησόν με ὁ θεός κατὰ τὸ μέγα ἔλεός σου καὶ κατὰ τὸ πλῆθος τῶν οἰκτιρμῶν σου ἐξάλειψον τὸ ἀνόμημά μου

Have mercy on me, O God, according to your great mercy, and according to the abundance of your compassions blot out my transgression.

神啊，求你按你的大慈愛憐憫我，按你豐盛的憐恤塗抹我的過犯。

51:2

ἐπὶ πλεῖον πλῦνόν με ἀπὸ τῆς ἀνομίας μου καὶ ἀπὸ τῆς ἁμαρτίας μου καθάρισόν με

Wash me thoroughly from my lawlessness, and cleanse me from my sin.

求你將我的罪孽洗除淨盡，並潔淨我脫離我的罪。

51:3

ὅτι τὴν ἀνομίαν μου ἐγὼ γινώσκω καὶ ἡ ἁμαρτία μου ἐνώπιόν μού ἐστιν διὰ παντός

For I know my lawlessness, and my sin is ever before me.

因為我知道我的罪孽，我的罪常在我面前。

51:4

σοὶ μόνῳ ἥμαρτον καὶ τὸ πονηρὸν ἐνώπιόν σου ἐποίησα ὅπως ἂν δικαιωθῇς ἐν τοῖς λόγοις σου καὶ νικήσῃς ἐν τῷ κρίνεσθαί σε

Against you alone I sinned, and did what is evil before you, so that you may be justified in your words and prevail when you are judged.

我向你，惟獨向你犯了罪，在你眼前行了這惡，以致你在你的話語上顯為公義，你受審判的時候得勝。

51:5

ἰδοὺ γὰρ ἐν ἀνομίαις συνελήμφθην καὶ ἐν ἁμαρτίαις ἐκίσσησέν με ἡ μήτηρ μου

For behold, in lawlessness I was conceived, and in sins my mother craved for me.

看哪，我是在罪孽中被懷的，我母親在罪中渴慕了我。

51:6

ἰδοὺ γὰρ ἀλήθειαν ἠγάπησας τὰ ἄδηλα καὶ τὰ κρύφια τῆς σοφίας σου ἐδήλωσάς μοι

For behold, you loved truth; you made known to me the obscure and hidden things of your wisdom.

看哪，你喜愛真理；你將你智慧中隱祕不明的事指示了我。

51:7

ῥαντιεῖς με ὑσσώπῳ καὶ καθαρισθήσομαι πλυνεῖς με καὶ ὑπὲρ χιόνα λευκανθήσομαι

You will sprinkle me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; you will wash me, and I shall be made whiter than snow.

求你用牛膝草潔淨我，我就乾淨；求你洗滌我，我就比雪更白。

51:8

ἀκουτιεῖς με ἀγαλλίασιν καὶ εὐφροσύνην ἀγαλλιάσονται ὀστᾶ τεταπεινωμένα

You will make me hear gladness and joy; the bones that have been humbled will rejoice.

求你使我得聽歡喜快樂的聲音，使被壓傷的骨頭踴躍。

51:9

ἀπόστρεψον τὸ πρόσωπόν σου ἀπὸ τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν μου καὶ πάσας τὰς ἀνομίας μου ἐξάλειψον

Turn your face away from my sins, and blot out all my lawless deeds.

求你掩面不看我的罪，塗抹我一切的罪孽。
