To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.

1 In the LORD put I my trust: how say ye to my soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain?

2 For, lo, the wicked bend their bow, they make ready their arrow upon the string, that they may privily shoot at the upright in heart.*11.2 privily: Heb. in darkness

3 If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?

4 The LORD is in his holy temple, the LORD’s throne is in heaven: his eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men.

5 The LORD trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.

6 Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone, and an horrible tempest: this shall be the portion of their cup.*11.6 an horrible…: or, a burning tempest

7 For the righteous LORD loveth righteousness; his countenance doth behold the upright.

大卫的诗，交给诗班长。 1 我投靠耶和华，你们怎么对我说：

"你要像飞鸟逃到你的山上去。*本节在《马索拉文本》包括细字标题

2 看哪！恶人的弓已经拉开，

箭已经上弦，

要从暗处射那心里正直的人。

3 根基既然毁坏，

义人还能作甚么呢？"

4 耶和华在他的圣殿里，

耶和华的宝座在天上，

他的眼睛观看，他的目光察验世人。

5 耶和华试验义人和恶人，

他的心恨恶喜爱强暴的人。

6 耶和华必使火炭落在恶人身上，

烈火、硫磺和旱风是他们杯中的分。

7 因为耶和华是公义的，他喜爱公义的行为，

正直的人必得见他的面。
