詩篇 11

1 【義人依靠天主】上主是我的避難所，你們怎麼能對我說：像隻小鳥，飛往深山！

To the Chief Musician. David’s. In Yahweh, have I sought refuge. How can ye say to my soul, Flee to a mountain like a little bird;

2 看，惡人挽弓搭箭，向心誠的人暗算。

For lo! the lawless, bend the bow They have fixed their arrow upon the string, To shoot in the darkness at the upright in heart:

3 基礎既已全部崩潰，義人還能有何作為？

When the pillars are overthrown, What could, a righteous man, do?

4 上主住在自己的聖殿，上主的寶座設於天；祂的眼睛垂視，祂的目光細察人子，

Yahweh, is in his holy temple As for Yahweh, in the heavens, is his throne, His eyes, behold—His eyelashes test the sons of men.

5 上主審察著義人與惡人；全心痛恨那愛蠻橫的人，

Yahweh, putteth, the righteous, to the test, —But the lawless one and the lover of violence, his soul doth hate.

6 上主使火碳硫磺降於惡人之身，乾燥的熱風將是他們杯中之分。

He will rain upon the lawless live-coals, Fire and brimstone and a burning wind, are the portion of their cup.

7 上主是正義的，上主酷愛公正，心誠的人必得見祂的儀容

For righteous is Yahweh Righteousness, he loveth, the upright, shall behold his face.
