64:1 愿你裂天而降，愿山在你面前绅动，

Oh that thou wouldest rend the heavens, that thou wouldest come down, that the mountains might flow down at thy presence,

 

64:2 好像火烧乾柴，又像火将水烧开。使你敌人知道你的名，使列国在你面前发颤。

As when the melting fire burneth, the fire causeth the waters to boil, to make thy name known to thine adversaries, that the nations may tremble at thy presence!

 

64:3 你曾行我们不能逆料可畏的事。那时你降临，山岭在你面前绅动。

When thou didst terrible things which we looked not for, thou camest down, the mountains flowed down at thy presence.

 

64:4 从古以来人未曾听见，未曾耳闻，未曾眼见，在你以外有什么神为等候他的人行事。

For since the beginning of the world men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside thee, what he hath prepared for him that waiteth for him.

 

64:5 你迎接那欢喜行义记念你道的人，你曾发怒，我们仍犯罪。这景况以久。我们还能得救吗。

Thou meetest him that rejoiceth and worketh righteousness, those that remember thee in thy ways: behold, thou art wroth; for we have sinned: in those is continuance, and we shall be saved.

 

64:6 我们都像不洁净的人，所有的义都像污秽的衣服。我们都像叶子渐渐枯乾。我们的罪孽好像风把我们吹去。

But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.

 

64:7 并且无人求告你的名，无人奋刀抓住你。原来你掩面不顾我们，使我们因罪孽消化。

And there is none that calleth upon thy name, that stirreth up himself to take hold of thee: for thou hast hid thy face from us, and hast consumed us, because of our iniquities.

 

64:8 耶和华阿，现在你仍是我们的父。我们是泥，你是窑匠。我们都是你手的工作。

But now, O LORD, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand.

 

64:9 耶和华阿，求你不要大发震怒，也不要永远记念罪孽。求你垂顾我们，我们都是你的百姓。

Be not wroth very sore, O LORD, neither remember iniquity for ever: behold, see, we beseech thee, we are all thy people.

 

64:10 你的圣邑变为旷野，锡安变为旷野，耶路撒冷成为荒场。

Thy holy cities are a wilderness, Zion is a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.

 

64:11 我们圣洁华美的殿，就是我们列祖赞美你的所在，被火焚烧。我们所羡慕的美地，尽都荒废。

Our holy and our beautiful house, where our fathers praised thee, is burned up with fire: and all our pleasant things are laid waste.

 

64:12 耶和华阿，有这些事，你还忍得住吗。你仍静默使我们深受苦难吗。

Wilt thou refrain thyself for these things, O LORD? wilt thou hold thy peace, and afflict us very sore?
