My God, make them like straw that the wind blows away. Make them like tumbleweed.

我的神啊，求你叫他们像旋风的尘土，像风前的碎秸。

我的上帝啊，求你使他们像旋风中的尘土，如风前的碎秸。

我的神啊，求你使他们像旋风中的尘土，如风前的碎秸。

我的上帝啊，求你把他们驱散，如同狂风吹散尘土和碎秸。

我的神啊！求你使他们像旋风卷起的草，像风前的碎秸。

我的神哪，求你使他们如同旋风中的尘土，如同风前的麦秸！

我的神啊，求你叫他們像旋風的塵土，像風前的碎稭。

我的上帝啊，求你使他們像旋風中的塵土，如風前的碎稭。

我的神啊，求你使他們像旋風中的塵土，如風前的碎稭。

我的上帝啊，求你把他們驅散，如同狂風吹散塵土和碎稭。

我的神啊！求你使他們像旋風捲起的草，像風前的碎稭。

我的上帝啊，使他們像滾轉草，像風前的碎稭哦。

我的神哪，求你使他們如同旋風中的塵土，如同風前的麥稭！

我上帝歟、使之如飛旋之塵埃、如風飄之草芥兮、

上帝兮、使彼若草芥、為風飄揚兮。

求我天主使之如旋風、使之如糠秕隨風飄蕩、

主豈不聞其狂言。『吾欲併吞主第宅。』

Make them like tumbleweed, my God, like chaff before the wind.

O my God, make them like whirling dust, like chaff before the wind.

O my God, scatter them like tumbleweed, like chaff before the wind!

Make them like tumbleweed, my God, like straw before the wind.

My God, make them like the whirling dust, Like chaff before the wind.

O my God, make them like the whirling dust, Like the chaff before the wind!

O my God, make them like the whirling dust; As stubble before the wind.

Make them like tumbleweed, my God, like straw before the wind.

O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.

O my God, make them like dead thistles, like dead weeds blown away by the wind!

My God, make them like tumbleweed, like chaff before the wind.

How often are they like straw blowing in the wind? How often are they like tumbleweeds swept away by a storm?

Let them be like straw blowing in the wind, while the angel of the Lord drives them away.

I’m already like a leaf that is blown by the wind. Are you going to terrify me even more? I’m already like dry straw. Are you going to keep on chasing me?

They are planted. They are scattered like seeds. They put down roots in the ground. But as soon as that happens, God blows on them and they dry up. Then a windstorm sweeps them away like straw.

The Lord says,“ I will scatter you like straw that the desert wind blows away.

His pitchfork is in his hand to clear the straw from his threshing floor. He will gather his wheat into the storeroom. But he will burn up the husks with fire that can’t be put out.”

Because of your great majesty, you threw down those who opposed you. Your burning anger blazed out. It burned them up like straw.

How terrible it will be for the nations that attack us! The noise of their armies is like the sound of the ocean. How terrible it will be for the nations who fight against us! They are as loud as huge waves crashing on the shore.They sound like the roar of rushing waters. But when the Lord speaks out against them, they run far away. The wind blows them away like straw on the hills. A strong wind drives them along like tumbleweeds.In the evening, the nations terrify us. But before morning comes, they are gone. That’s what happens to those who steal our goods. That’s what happens to those who take what belongs to us.

You are my King and my God. You give victories to the people of Jacob.

May God rise up and scatter his enemies. May they turn and run away from him.May you, God, blow them away like smoke. As fire melts wax, so may God destroy sinful people.

“ Who has stirred up a king from the east? Who has helped him win his battles? I hand nations over to him. I bring kings under his control. He turns them into dust with his sword. With his bow he turns them into straw blowing in the wind.

Why don’t you help us? Why do you hold back your power? Use your strong power to destroy your enemies!God, you have been my king for a long time. You are the only God who can save anyone on earth.

My God, my God, why have you deserted me? Why do you seem so far away when I need you to save me? Why do you seem so far away that you can’t hear my groans?
