TEHILLIM 11

Psalm 11

To the chief singer. Of Dawiḏ.

1  In יהוה I have taken refuge; Why do you say to me, "Flee to your mountain like a bird"?

2  For look! The wicked bend a bow, They set their arrow on the string, To shoot in darkness at the upright in heart.

3  When the foundations are destroyed, What shall the righteous do?

4  יהוה is in His qodesh Hĕyḵal, The throne of יהוה is in the shamayim. His eyes see, His eyelids examine the sons of men.

5  יהוה tries the righteous, But His being shall hate the wicked And the one who loves violence.

6  Upon the wicked He rains snares, Fire and sulphur and a scorching wind Are the portion of their cup.

7  For יהוה is righteous, He has loved righteousness; The upright shall see His face.
