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?

大衛的詩，交與伶長。 我是投靠耶和華； 你們怎麼對我說：你當像鳥飛往你的山去。

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.

看哪，惡人彎弓，把箭搭在弦上， 要在暗中射那心裏正直的人。

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

根基若毀壞， 義人還能做甚麼呢？

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

耶和華在他的聖殿裏； 耶和華的寶座在天上； 他的慧眼察看世人。

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

耶和華試驗義人； 惟有惡人和喜愛強暴的人，他心裏恨惡。

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

他要向惡人密布網羅； 有烈火、硫磺、熱風，作他們杯中的分。

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

因為耶和華是公義的，他喜愛公義； 正直人必得見他的面。
