1 Unto the end. A psalm for David. In the Lord I put my trust: how then do you say to my soul: Get thee away from hence to the mountain like a sparrow? In the LORD I take refuge; how can you say to my soul, “Flee like a bird to your mountain, For the director of music. Of David. In the LORD I take refuge. How then can you say to me: “Flee like a bird to your mountain.
2 For, lo, the wicked have bent their bow; they have prepared their arrows in the quiver; to shoot in the dark the upright of 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.
3 For they have destroyed the things which thou hast made: but what has the just man done? if the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?” When the foundations are being destroyed, what can the righteous do?”
4 The Lord is in his holy temple, the Lord's throne is in heaven. His eyes look on the poor man: his eyelids examine the sons of men. The LORD is in his holy temple; the LORD’s throne is in heaven; his eyes see, his eyelids test the children of man. The LORD is in his holy temple; the LORD is on his heavenly throne. He observes everyone on earth; his eyes examine them.
5 The Lord trieth the just and the wicked: but he that loveth iniquity hateth his own soul. The LORD tests the righteous, but his soul hates the wicked and the one who loves violence. The LORD examines the righteous, but the wicked, those who love violence, he hates with a passion.
6 He shall rain snares upon sinners: fire and brimstone and storms of winds 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.
7 For the Lord is just, and hath loved justice: his countenance hath beheld righteousness. For the LORD is righteous; he loves righteous deeds; the upright shall behold his face. For the LORD is righteous, he loves justice; the upright will see his face.
