1 For the end, a Psalm of David. In the Lord I have put my trust: how will ye say to my soul, Flee to the mountains as 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 behold the sinners have bent their bow , they have prepared their arrows for the quiver, to shoot privily 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.
3 For they have pulled down what thou didst frame, but what has 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 temple, as for the Lord, his throne is in heaven: his eyes look upon the poor, his eyelids try 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 tries the righteous and the ungodly: and he that loves unrighteousness hates 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 upon sinners snares, fire, and brimstone, and a stormy blast 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 righteous, and loves righteousness; his face beholds uprightness. 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.
