Psalmi 11

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

To the Overseer. — By David. In Jehovah I trusted, how say ye to my soul, 'They moved [to] Thy mountain for the bird?

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

For lo, the wicked tread a bow, They have prepared their arrow on the string, To shoot in darkness at the upright in heart.

3 Kad su temelji uzljuljani, što da učini pravednik?”

When the foundations are destroyed, The righteous — what hath he done?

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

'Jehovah [is] in his holy temple: Jehovah — in the heavens [is] His throne. His eyes see — His eyelids try the sons of men.

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

Jehovah the righteous doth try. And the wicked and the lover of violence, Hath His soul hated,

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

He poureth on the wicked snares, fire, and brimstone, And a horrible wind [is] the portion of their cup.

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

For righteous [is] Jehovah, Righteousness He hath loved, The upright doth His countenance see!'
