When I was in my prime, God’s friendship was felt in my home.

我愿如壮年的时候：那时我在帐棚中，神待我有密友之情；

在我壮年的时候，上帝亲密的情谊临到我的帐棚中。

在我壮年的时候，神亲密的情谊临到我的帐棚中。

那时，我身强力壮，上帝是我家的密友；

但愿我仍然活在年轻力壮的日子，那时神在我的帐棚里与我亲密。

我願如壯年的時候：那時我在帳棚中，神待我有密友之情；

在我壯年的時候，上帝親密的情誼臨到我的帳棚中。

在我壯年的時候，神親密的情誼臨到我的帳棚中。

那時，我身強力壯，上帝是我家的密友；

但願我仍然活在年輕力壯的日子，那時神在我的帳棚裡與我親密。

就是在我壯年日子：上帝親密的友誼光臨於我家；

當我壯年、上帝友誼、在於我幕、

當我強盛之年、全能之上帝、親我眷我、子女繞膝、

願如壯年之時、天主如友、眷顧我幕、

Oh, for the days when I was in my prime, when God’s intimate friendship blessed my house,

Those were the best days of my life. That’s when God’s friendship blessed my house.

as I was in my prime, when the friendship of God was upon my tent,

I would be as I was in the days of my youth when God’s friendship rested on my tent,

Just as I was in the days of my youth, When the protection of God was over my tent;

Just as I was in the days of my prime, When the friendly counsel of God was over my tent;

As I was in the ripeness of my days, When the friendship of God was upon my tent;

I would be as I was in the days of my youth when God’s friendship rested on my tent,

As I was in the days of my youth, when the secret of God[ was] upon my tabernacle;

just as I was in my most productive time, when God’s intimate friendship was experienced in my tent,

as I was in my prime, when the friendship of God was in my tent,

The Lord is a friend to those who fear him. He teaches them his covenant.

Such wicked people are detestable to the Lord, but he offers his friendship to the godly.

You have always put a wall of protection around him and his home and his property. You have made him prosper in everything he does. Look how rich he is!

Were you listening at God’s secret council? Do you have a monopoly on wisdom?

Those who live in the shelter of the Most High will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty.

For he will conceal me there when troubles come; he will hide me in his sanctuary. He will place me out of reach on a high rock.

For you died to this life, and your real life is hidden with Christ in God.
