For the Chief Musician. By David.
[1] In Yahweh, I take refuge.How can you say to my soul, “Flee as a bird to your mountain”?
[2] For, behold, the wicked bend their bows.
They set their arrows on the strings,
that they may shoot in darkness at the upright in heart.
[3] If the foundations are destroyed,
what can the righteous do?
[4] Yahweh is in his holy temple.
Yahweh is on his throne in heaven.
His eyes observe.
His eyes examine the children of men.
[5] Yahweh examines the righteous,
but his soul hates the wicked and him who loves violence.
[6] On the wicked he will rain blazing coals;
fire, sulfur, and scorching wind shall be the portion of their cup.
[7] For Yahweh is righteous.
He loves righteousness.
The upright shall see his face.
King James Version
To the chief Musician, H5329 A Psalm of David. H1732
[1] In the Lord H3068 put I my trust: H2620How say H559 ye to my soul, H5315 flee H5110 as a bird H6833 to your mountain? H2022
[2] For, lo, the wicked H7563 bend H1869 their bow, H7198 they make ready H3559 their arrow H2671 upon H5921 the string, H3499
That they may privily H652§ H1119 shoot H3384 at the upright H3477 in heart. H3820
[3] If the foundations H8356 be destroyed, H2040
What H4100 can the righteous H6662 do? H6466
[4] The Lord H3068 is in his holy H6944 temple, H1964
The Lord’s H3068 throne H3678 is in heaven: H8064
His eyes H5869 behold, H2372 his eyelids H6079 try, H974 the children H1121 of men. H120
[5] The Lord H3068 trieth H974 the righteous: H6662
But the wicked H7563 and him that loveth H157 violence H2555 his soul H5315 hateth. H8130
[6] Upon H5921 the wicked H7563 he shall rain H4305 snares, H6341 fire H784 and brimstone, H1614 and an horrible H2152 tempest: H7307§
This shall be the portion H4521 of their cup. H3563
[7] For H3588 the righteous H6662 Lord H3068 loveth H157 righteousness; H6666
His countenance H6440 doth behold H2372 the upright. H3477
