Psalms 11

Third Millennium Bible TMB

1 <<To the chief musician: A Psalm of David.>> In the LORD I put my trust; how say ye to my soul, "Flee as a bird to your mountain,

2 for lo, the wicked bend their bow and make ready their arrow upon the string, that they may privily shoot at the upright in heart;

3 if the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?"

4 The LORD is in His holy temple! The LORD'S throne is in heaven! His eyes behold; His eyelids test the children of men!

5 The LORD trieth the righteous; but the wicked and him that loveth violence, His soul hateth.

6 Upon the wicked He shall rain snares, fire and brimstone, and a horrible tempest: this shall be the portion of their cup.

7 For the righteous LORD loveth righteousness; His countenance doth behold the upright.

GOD'S WORD Translation GW

1 I have taken refuge in the LORD. How can you say to me: "Flee to your mountain like a bird?

2 Wicked people bend their bows. They set their arrows against the strings to shoot in the dark at people whose motives are decent.

3 When the foundations [of life] are undermined, what can a righteous person do?"

4 The LORD is in his holy temple. The LORD's throne is in heaven. His eyes see. They examine Adam's descendants.

5 The LORD tests righteous people, but he hates wicked people and the ones who love violence.

6 He rains down fire and burning sulfur upon wicked people. He makes them drink from a cup filled with scorching wind.

7 The LORD is righteous. He loves a righteous way of life. Decent people will see his face.
