Chinese (traditional)- He alone is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress, so that I stand ever unshaken. - In God alone be at rest, O my soul;
it is from him that my hope comes. - He alone is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress, so that I stand unshaken. - My deliverance and my glory depend on God;
he is my mighty rock and my refuge. - And so does kindness, O Lord.
You reward each person
in accordance with his deeds. - O God, you are my God,
for whom I have been searching earnestly.
My soul yearns for you
and my body thirsts for you,
like the earth when it is parched,
arid and without water. - Your kindness is a greater joy than life itself;
thus my lips will speak your praise.
I will bless you all my life;
with uplifted hands I will call on your name. - For you, O God, have put us to the test;
you have purified us as silver is refined. - I lifted up my voice in prayer to him;
his praise was on my tongue. - May God continue to bless us
and be revered to the ends of the earth. - Sing to God, sing praise to his name;
exalt him who rides upon the clouds.
Rejoice in the presence of this God
whose name is the Lord.
The Father of orphans and the defender of widows:
such is God in his holy dwelling place. - He gives a home to those who are forsaken
and leads out prisoners amid chants of exultation,
while rebels are forced to live in an arid land. - Blessed be the Lord, day after day,
the God of our salvation, who carries our burden. Selah
All this took place in order to fulfill what the Lord had announced through the prophet:
“Behold, the virgin shall conceive and give birth to a son,
and they shall name him Emmanuel,”
a name that means “God is with us.”
