For the Chief Musician. [A Psalm] of David.
1 In Jehovah do I
take refuge:
How say ye to my soul,
Flee [as] a bird to your mountain;
2 For, lo, the wicked bend
the bow,
They make ready their arrow upon the string,
That they may shoot in darkness at the upright in heart;
3 If the foundations be
destroyed,
What can the righteous do?
4 Jehovah is in his holy
temple;
Jehovah, his throne is in heaven;
His eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men.
5 Jehovah trieth the
righteous;
But the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.
6 Upon the wicked he
will rain snares;
Fire and brimstone and burning wind shall be the portion of
their cup.
7 For Jehovah is
righteous; he loveth righteousness:
The upright shall behold his face.
