Psalms 11

1 I trust that Yahweh will protect [MTY] me. So do not [RHQ] say to me, “You need to escape/flee to the mountains like birds do,

in finem psalmus David in Domino confido quomodo dicitis animae meae transmigra in montes sicut passer

2 because wicked people have hidden in the darkness, they have pulled back their bowstrings and aimed their arrows to shoot them at godly/righteous [IDM] people [like you].

quoniam ecce peccatores intenderunt arcum paraverunt sagittas suas in faretra ut sagittent in obscuro rectos corde

3 When people are not punished for disobeying the laws, (what can righteous people do?/there is not much that righteous people can do.)” [RHQ]

quoniam quae perfecisti destruxerunt iustus autem quid fecit

4 But Yahweh is sitting on his throne in his sacred temple in heaven, and he [SYN] watches everything that people do.

Dominus in templo sancto suo Dominus in caelo sedis eius oculi eius in pauperem respiciunt palpebrae eius interrogant filios hominum

5 Yahweh examines what righteous people do and what wicked people do, and he hates those who like to perform violent actions [to injure others].

Dominus interrogat iustum et impium qui autem diligit iniquitatem odit animam suam

6 He will send down [from the sky] flaming coals and burning sulfur, and send scorching hot winds to punish wicked people.

pluet super peccatores laqueos ignis et sulphur et spiritus procellarum pars calicis eorum

7 Yahweh is righteous and he loves those who act righteously; righteous people are able to come into his presence.

quoniam iustus Dominus et iustitias dilexit aequitatem vidit vultus eius
