Psalm 11 | English Standard Version

The Lord Is in His Holy Temple

1 To the choirmaster. Of David. In the Lord I take refuge; how can you say to my soul, “Flee like a bird to your mountain, 2 for behold, the wicked bend the bow; they have fitted their arrow to the string to shoot in the dark at the upright in heart; 3 if the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?”* 4 The Lord is in his holy temple; the Lord’s throne is in heaven; his eyes see, his eyelids test the children of man. 5 The Lord tests the righteous, but his soul hates the wicked and the one who loves violence. 6 Let him rain coals on the wicked; fire and sulfur and a scorching wind shall be the portion of their cup. 7 For the Lord is righteous; he loves righteous deeds; the upright shall behold his face.

Segond 21

Confiance dans l'intervention de Dieu

1 Au chef de chœur. De David. C'est en l'Eternel que je cherche un refuge. Comment pouvez-vous me dire: «Fuis dans les montagnes comme un oiseau»? 2 Les méchants bandent leur arc, ils ajustent leur flèche sur la corde pour tirer dans l'ombre sur ceux dont le cœur est droit. 3 Quand les fondements sont renversés, que peut faire le juste? 4 L'Eternel est dans son saint temple, l'Eternel a son trône dans le ciel. Ses yeux regardent, il examine les hommes. 5 L'Eternel examine le juste; il déteste le méchant et celui qui aime la violence. 6 Il fait pleuvoir sur les méchants des charbons, du feu et du soufre. Un vent brûlant, tel est le lot qu'ils ont en partage, 7 car l'Eternel est juste, il aime la justice; les hommes droits contemplent son visage.
