Psalms 11

1 To the Chief Musician. David’s. In Yahweh, have I sought refuge. How can ye say to my soul, Flee to a mountain like a little 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 lawless, bend the bow They have fixed their arrow upon the string, To shoot in the 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 pillars are overthrown, What could, a righteous man, do?

根基若毀壞， 義人還能做甚麼呢？

4 Yahweh, is in his holy temple As for Yahweh, in the heavens, is his throne, His eyes, behold—His eyelashes test 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 Yahweh, putteth, the righteous, to the test, —But the lawless one and the lover of violence, his soul doth hate.

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 will rain upon the lawless live-coals, Fire and brimstone and a burning wind, are 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 Yahweh Righteousness, he loveth, the upright, shall behold his face.

因為耶和華是公義的，他喜愛公義； 正直人必得見他的面。
