For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.

1In Jehovah do I takeH2620 refugeH2620:HowH349 sayH559 ye to my soulH5315,Fleeasa birdH6833 to your mountainH2022;2For, lo, the wickedH7563 bendH1869 the bowH7198,They make ready their arrowH2671 upon the string,That they may shootH3384 in darknessH652 at the uprightH3477 in heartH3820;3If the foundationsH8356 be destroyed,What can the righteousH6662 do?4Jehovah is in his holyH6944 templeH1964;Jehovah, his throneH3678 is in heavenH8064;His eyesH5869 beholdH2372, his eyelidsH6079 try, the children of menH120.5Jehovah trieth the righteousH6662;But the wickedH7563 and him that loveth violenceH2555 his soulH5315 hateth.6Upon the wickedH7563 he will rainH4305 snaresH6341;FireH784 and brimstone and burning windH7307 shall be the portionH4521 of their cupH3563.7For Jehovah is righteousH6662; he loveth righteousnessH6666:The uprightH3477 shall beholdH2372 his faceH6440.
