Psalms 11

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

【義人依靠天主】上主是我的避難所，你們怎麼能對我說：像隻小鳥，飛往深山！

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

看，惡人挽弓搭箭，向心誠的人暗算。

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

基礎既已全部崩潰，義人還能有何作為？

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

上主住在自己的聖殿，上主的寶座設於天；祂的眼睛垂視，祂的目光細察人子，

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

上主審察著義人與惡人；全心痛恨那愛蠻橫的人，

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

上主使火碳硫磺降於惡人之身，乾燥的熱風將是他們杯中之分。

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

上主是正義的，上主酷愛公正，心誠的人必得見祂的儀容
