Psalms 11

1 Unto the end. A psalm for David. In the Lord I put my trust: how then do you say to my soul: Get thee away from hence to the mountain like a sparrow?

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

2 For, lo, the wicked have bent their bow; they have prepared their arrows in the quiver; to shoot in the dark the upright of heart.

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

3 For they have destroyed the things which thou hast made: but what has the just man done?

Kad su temelji uzljuljani, što da učini pravednik?”

4 The Lord is in his holy temple, the Lord’s throne is in heaven. His eyes look on the poor man: his eyelids examine the sons of men.

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

5 The Lord trieth the just and the wicked: but he that loveth iniquity hateth his own soul.

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

6 He shall rain snares upon sinners: fire and brimstone and storms of winds shall be the portion of their cup.

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

7 For the Lord is just, and hath loved justice: his countenance hath beheld righteousness.

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