Psalm 11

Refuge in the Lord

For the choir director. Of David.

1 I have taken refuge in the Lord.(A)
How can you say to me,
“Escape to the mountains[a] like a bird!(B)
2 For look, the wicked string bows;
they put their arrows on bowstrings
to shoot from the shadows at the upright in heart.(C)
3 When the foundations are destroyed,
what can the righteous do?” (D)

4 The Lord is in his holy temple;(E)
the Lord—his throne is in heaven.(F)
His eyes watch;
his gaze[b] examines everyone.[c]
5 The Lord examines the righteous,
but he hates the wicked
and[d] those who love violence.(G)
6 Let him rain burning coals[e] and sulfur on the wicked;
let a scorching wind be the portion in their cup.(H)
7 For the Lord is righteous; he loves righteous deeds.
The upright will see his face.(I)

诗篇 11
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)

信靠上帝

大卫的诗，交给乐长。

11 我投靠耶和华，
你们怎能对我说：“要像飞鸟一样逃到山里。
2 看啊，恶人弯弓搭箭，
要暗射心地正直的人。
3 根基若遭毁坏，
义人还能做什么？”
4 耶和华在祂的圣殿里，
坐在天上的宝座上，
放眼巡视，察看世人。
5 耶和华察验义人和恶人，
祂憎恨邪恶和残暴之徒。
6 祂要把烈焰熊熊的火炭和硫磺降在恶人身上，
用炙热的风惩罚他们。
7 因为耶和华是公义的，
祂喜爱公义。
正直的人必见祂的面。

Faith in the Lord’s Righteousness

To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.

11 In (A)the Lord I put my trust;
How can you say to my soul,
“Flee as a bird to your mountain”?
2 For look! (B)The wicked bend their bow,
They make ready their arrow on the string,
That they may shoot [a]secretly at the upright in heart.
3 (C)If the foundations are destroyed,
What can the righteous do?

4 The Lord is in His holy temple,
The Lord’s (D)throne is in heaven;
(E)His eyes behold,
His eyelids test the sons of men.
5 The Lord (F)tests the righteous,
But the wicked and the one who loves violence His soul hates.
6 Upon the wicked He will rain coals;
Fire and brimstone and a burning wind
(G)Shall be [b]the portion of their cup.

7 For the Lord is righteous,
He (H)loves righteousness;
[c]His countenance beholds the upright.
