| 1 | To him that excelleth. A Psalme of Dauid. In the Lorde put I my trust: howe say yee then to my soule, Flee to your mountaine as a birde? | 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 loe, the wicked bende their bowe, and make readie their arrowes vpon the string, that they may secretly shoote at them, which are vpright 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. | |
| 3 | For the foundations are cast downe: what hath the righteous 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 palace: the Lordes throne is in the heauen: his eyes wil consider: his eye lids will try the children 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 Lorde will try the righteous: but the wicked and him that loueth iniquitie, doeth his soule hate. | 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 | Vpon the wicked he shal raine snares, fire, and brimstone, and stormie tempest: this is the porcion 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 righteous Lorde loueth righteousnes: his countenance doeth beholde the iust. | 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. | |
