2I bow down towards your holy temple
and give thanks to your name,
for your love and faithfulness,
for your word which exceeds everything.
3我幾時呼號你,你就俯允我,並將我靈魂上的力量增多。
3You answered me when I called;
you restored my soul and made me strong.
4地上萬君聽你口的諭旨;上主,他們都必來讚頌你,
4O Lord, all kings on earth will give you praise,
when they have heard your words.
5並歌頌上主的作為說:上主的光耀偉大無比!
5They will celebrate the ways of the Lord,
"great is the glory of the Lord!"
6上主尊高無比,仍垂顧弱小,惟對驕傲的人,卻遠遠旁眺。
6From above, the Lord watches over the lowly;
from afar, he marks down the haughty.
7我若處於困難中,你必保全我的性命,你用右手救我,伸手拒抗仇人的憤恨。
7If I walk in the midst of trouble,
you give me life.
With outstretched arm,
you save me from the wrath of my foes,
with your right hand you deliver me.
8上主必替我完成這工程;上主,你的仁慈永遠常存,求你不要放棄你的作品。
8How the Lord cares for me!
Your kindness, O Lord, endures forever.
Forsake not the work of your hands.
