Of David. In the LORD I take refuge. How then can you say to me: “Flee like a bird to your mountain. | |
| 2 | For behold, the wicked bend the bow, they make ready their arrow upon the string, that they may in darkness shoot at the upright in heart. | for behold, the wicked bend the bow; they have fitted their arrow to the string to shoot in the dark at the upright in heart; | For look, the wicked bend their bows; they set their arrows against the strings to shoot from the shadows at the upright in heart. | |

| 6 | Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone; and scorching wind shall be the portion of their cup. | Let him rain coals on the wicked; fire and sulfur and a scorching wind shall be the portion of their cup. | On the wicked he will rain fiery coals and burning sulfur; a scorching wind will be their lot. | |
