1In Jehovah do I take refuge: How say ye to my soul, Fleeasa bird to your mountain;

1 In Jehovah do I take refuge: How say ye to my soul, Fleeasa bird to your mountain;

1To the Overseer. --By David. In Jehovah I trusted, how say ye to my soul, `They moved <FI>to<Fi> Thy mountain for the bird?

1Unto the end: for the octave, a psalm for David.

2For, 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;

2For, 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;

2For lo, the wicked tread a bow, They have prepared their arrow on the string, To shoot in darkness at the upright in heart.

2Save me, O Lord, for there is now no saint: truths are decayed from among the children of men.

3If the foundations be destroyed, What can the righteous do?

3If the foundations be destroyed, What can the righteous do?

3When the foundations are destroyed, The righteous--what hath he done?

3They have spoken vain things, every one to his neighbour: with deceitful lips, and with a double heart have they spoken.

4Jehovah is in his holy temple; Jehovah, his throne is in heaven; His eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men.

4Jehovah is in his holy temple; Jehovah, his throne is in heaven; His eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men.

4`Jehovah <FI>is<Fi> in his holy temple: Jehovah--in the heavens <FI>is<Fi> His throne. His eyes see--His eyelids try the sons of men.

4May the Lord destroy all deceitful lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud things.

5Jehovah trieth the righteous; But the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.

5Jehovah trieth the righteous; But the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.

5Jehovah the righteous doth try. And the wicked and the lover of violence, Hath His soul hated,

5Who have said: We will magnify our tongue: our lips are our own: who is Lord over us?

6Upon the wicked he will rain snares; Fire and brimstone and burning wind shall be the portion of their cup.

6Upon the wicked he will rain snares; Fire and brimstone and burning wind shall be the portion of their cup.

6He poureth on the wicked snares, fire, and brimstone, And a horrible wind <FI>is<Fi> the portion of their cup.

6By reason of the misery of the needy, and the groans of the poor, now will I arise, saith the Lord. I will set him in safety: I will deal confidently in his regard.

7For Jehovah is righteous; he loveth righteousness: The upright shall behold his face.

7For Jehovah is righteous; he loveth righteousness: The upright shall behold his face.

7For righteous <FI>is<Fi> Jehovah, Righteousness He hath loved, The upright doth His countenance see!'

7The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried by the fire, purged from the earth, refined seven times.
