| 1达味诗歌，交与乐官。 | 1The heavens declare the glory of God;
the firmament proclaims the work of his hands. |
| 2高天陈述天主的光荣，穹苍宣扬他手的化工； | 2Day talks it over with day;
night hands on the knowledge to night. |
| 3日与日侃侃而谈，夜与夜知识相传。 | 3No speech, no words, no voice is heard - |
| 4不是语，也不是言，是听不到的语言； | 4but the call goes on throughout the universe,
the message is felt to the ends of the earth. |
| 5它们的声音传遍普世，它们的言语达于地极。天主在天为太阳设置了帷帐， | 5High above, he pitched a tent for the sun,
who comes out as a bridegroom from his pavilion,
or like a racer joyfully runs his course. |
| 6它活像新郎一样走出了洞房，又像壮士一样欣然就道奔放。 | 6Rising from one end,
it makes its circuit of the heavens,
and sets at the other end;
and nothing is hidden from its heat. |
| 7由天这边出现，往天那边旋转，没有一物可以避免它的热燄。 | 7The law of the Lord is perfect:
it gives life to the soul.
The word of the Lord is trustworthy:
it gives wisdom to the simple. |
| 8上主的法律是完善的，能畅快人灵；上主的约章是忠诚的，能开启愚蒙； | 8The precepts of the Lord are right:
they give joy to the heart.
The commandments of the Lord are clear:
they enlighten the eyes. |
| 9上主的规诫是正直的，能悦乐心情；上主的命令是光明的，能烛照眼睛； | 9The fear of the Lord is pure,
it endures forever;
the judgments of the Lord are true,
all of them just and right. |
| 10上主的训诲是纯洁的，永远常存；上主的判断是真实的，无不公允； | 10They are more precious than gold -
pure gold of a jeweller;
they are much sweeter than honey
which drops from the honeycomb. |
| 11比黄金，比极纯的黄金更可爱恋；比蜂蜜，比蜂巢的流汁更要甘甜。 | 11They are a light to your servant,
in keeping them they win a great reward. |
| 12你仆人虽留心这一切，竭尽全力遵守这一切， | 12But who can discern one's own errors?
Forgive the failings of which I am unaware. |
| 13但谁能认出自己的一切过犯？求你赦免我未觉察到的罪愆。 | 13Preserve me from willful sin;
do not let it get the better of your servant.
Then shall I walk blameless
and innocent of serious sin. |
| 14更求你使你仆人免于自负，求你不要让骄傲把我占有；如此我将成为完人，重大罪恶免污我身。 | 14May the words of my mouth
and the meditations of my heart
find favor in your sight,
O Lord - my redeemer, my rock! |
| 15上主，我的磐石，我的救主！愿我口中的话，并愿我心中的思虑，常在你前蒙受悦纳！ | 15 |
