Psalms 11

1 TO THE OVERSEER. BY DAVID. In YHWH I trusted, how do you say to my soul, “They moved to your mountain [as] the bird?”

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

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

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

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

Kad su temelji uzljuljani, što da učini pravednik?”

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

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

5 YHWH tries the righteous. And the wicked and the lover of violence, His soul has hated,

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

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

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

7 For YHWH [is] righteous, He has loved righteousness, His countenance sees the upright!

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