| [1]In the Lord I have put my trust: how will ye say to my soul, Flee to the mountains as a sparrow? |
[1]In the Lord put I my trust: how say ye then to my soul, Flee to your mountain as a bird? |
| [2]For behold the sinners have bent their bow, they have prepared their arrows for the quiver, to shoot privily at the upright in heart. |
[2]For lo, the wicked bend their bow, and make ready their arrows upon the string, that they may secretly shoot at them, which are upright in heart. |
| [3]For they have pulled down what thou didst frame, but what has the righteous done? |
[3]For the foundations are cast down: what hath the righteous done? |
| [4]The Lord is in his holy temple, as for the Lord, his throne is in heaven: his eyes look upon the poor, his eyelids try the sons of men. |
[4]The Lord is in his holy palace: the Lord's throne is in the heaven: his eyes will consider: his eye lids will try the children of men. |
| [5]The Lord tries the righteous and the ungodly: and he that loves unrighteousness hates his own soul. |
[5]The Lord will try the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth iniquity, doth his soul hate. |
| [6]He shall rain upon sinners snares, fire, and brimstone, and a stormy blast shall be the portion of their cup. |
[6]Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire, and brimstone, and stormy tempest: this is the portion of their cup. |
| [7]For the Lord is righteous, and loves righteousness; his face beholds uprightness. |
[7]For the righteous Lord loveth righteousness: his countenance doth behold the just. |
