| Psalms 11:1 | In the LORD put I my trust: How say ye to my soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain? | <For the chief music-maker. Of David.> In the Lord put I my faith; how will you say to my soul, Go in flight like a bird to the mountain? |
| Psalms 11:2 | For, lo, the wicked bend their bow, they make ready their arrow upon the string, that they may privily shoot at the upright in heart. | See, the bows of the evil-doers are bent, they make ready their arrows on the cord, so that they may send them secretly against the upright in heart. |
| Psalms 11:3 | If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do? | If the bases are broken down, what is the upright man to do? |
| Psalms 11:4 | The LORD is in his holy temple, the LORD's throne is in heaven: his eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men. | The Lord is in his holy Temple, the Lord's seat is in heaven; his eyes are watching and testing the children of men. |
| Psalms 11:5 | The LORD trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth. | The Lord puts the upright and the sinner to the test, but he has hate in his soul for the lover of violent acts. |
| Psalms 11:6 | Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone, and an horrible tempest: this shall be the portion of their cup. | On the evil-doer he will send down fire and flames, and a burning wind; with these will their cup be full. |
| Psalms 11:7 | For the righteous LORD loveth righteousness; his countenance doth behold the upright. | For the Lord is upright; he is a lover of righteousness: the upright will see his face. |
