Psalmi 11

1 Zborovođi. Psalam. Davidov. Jahvi se utječem! Zašto dakle govorite duši mojoj: “Odleti u goru kao ptica!

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 Gle, bezbožnici već luk napeše, za tetivu strijelu zapeše da iz potaje ustrijele pravednika.

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 Kad su temelji uzljuljani, što da učini pravednik?”

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

4 Jahve je u svom svetom Hramu, na nebeskom sjedi prijestolju. Oči njegove motre, vjeđama proniče sinove ljudske.

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 Jahve proniče pravedna i nepravedna, iz dna duše mrzi silnika.

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

6 Na grešnike će izlit' žeravu i sumpor, vjetar ognjeni bit će dio njine sudbine.

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

7 Pravedan je Jahve i pravednost ljubi, čestiti će gledat' lice njegovo.

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