Psalm 11 (WEBP)
[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.

[1] [10:1] εις το τελος ψαλμος τω δαυιδ επι τω κυριω πεποιθα πας ερειτε τη ψυχη μου μεταναστευου επι τα ορη ως στρουθιον
[2] [10:2] οτι ιδου οι αμαρτωλοι ενετειναν τοξον ητοιμασαν βελη εις φαρετραν του κατατοξευσαι εν σκοτομηνη τους ευθεις τη καρδια
[3] [10:3] οτι α κατηρτισω καθειλον ο δε δικαιος τι εποιησεν
[4] [10:4] κυριος εν ναω αγιω αυτου κυριος εν ουρανω ο θρονος αυτου οι οφθαλμοι αυτου εις τον πενητα αποβλεπουσιν τα βλεφαρα αυτου εξεταζει τους υιους των ανθρωπων
[5] [10:5] κυριος εξεταζει τον δικαιον και τον ασεβη ο δε αγαπων αδικιαν μισει την εαυτου ψυχην
[6] [10:6] επιβρεξει επι αμαρτωλους παγιδας πυρ και θειον και πνευμα καταιγιδος η μερις του ποτηριου αυτων
[7] [10:7] οτι δικαιος κυριος και δικαιοσυνας ηγαπησεν ευθυτητα ειδεν το προσωπον αυτου
