Psalms 11

1 For the chief music-maker. Of David. In the Lord put I my faith; how will you say to my soul, Go in flight like a bird to the mountain?

Agkamangak kenni Yahweh; apay a kunaem kaniak, “Tumayabka a kasla billit nga agturong iti bantay”?

2 See, the bows of the evil-doers are bent, they make ready their arrows on the cord, so that they may send them secretly against the upright in heart.

Ta kitaem! Insagana dagiti nadangkes dagiti panada. Iti kasipngetan, isaganada nga ibiat dagiti panada a mangipuntiria kadagiti nalinteg ti pusona.

3 If the bases are broken down, what is the upright man to do?

Ta no nadadael dagiti pundasion, anianto ti maaramidan dagiti nalinteg?

4 The Lord is in his holy Temple, the Lord's seat is in heaven; his eyes are watching and testing the children of men.

Adda ni Yahweh iti nasantoan a templona; kumitkita dagiti matana, suksukimaten dagiti matana dagiti annak dagiti tattao.

5 The Lord puts the upright and the sinner to the test, but he has hate in his soul for the lover of violent acts.

Agpada a suksukimaten ni Yahweh dagiti nalinteg ken dagiti nadangkes, ngem kagurgurana dagiti mangay-ayat nga agaramid iti kinaranggas.

6 On the evil-doer he will send down fire and flames, and a burning wind; with these will their cup be full.

Pagtudoenna iti dumardarang a beggang ken asufre kadagiti nadangkes; maysanto a makasinit nga angin ti pasetda iti kopana!

7 For the Lord is upright; he is a lover of righteousness: the upright will see his face.

Ta nalinteg ni Yahweh, ken ay-ayatenna ti kinalinteg; makitanto dagiti nalinteg ti rupana.
