For the Chief Musician. [A Psalm] of David. In Jehovah{H3068} do I take refuge:{H2620} How say{H559} ye to my soul,{H5315} Flee{H5110} [as] a bird{H6833} to your mountain;{H2022}

For, lo, the wicked{H7563} bend{H1869} the bow,{H7198} They make ready{H3559} their arrow{H2671} upon the string,{H3499} That they may shoot{H3384} in darkness{H652} at the upright{H3477} in heart;{H3820}

If the foundations{H8356} be destroyed,{H2040} What can the righteous{H6662} do?{H6466}

Jehovah{H3068} is in his holy{H6944} temple;{H1964} Jehovah,{H3068} his throne{H3678} is in heaven;{H8064} His eyes{H5869} behold,{H2372} his eyelids{H6079} try,{H974} the children{H1121} of men.{H120}

Jehovah{H3068} trieth{H974} the righteous;{H6662} But the wicked{H7563} and him that loveth{H157} violence{H2555} his soul{H5315} hateth.{H8130}

Upon the wicked{H7563} he will rain{H4305} snares;{H6341} Fire{H784} and brimstone{H1614} and burning{H2152} wind{H7307} shall be the portion{H4521} of their cup.{H3563}

For Jehovah{H3068} is righteous;{H6662} He loveth{H157} righteousness:{H6666} The upright{H6662} shall behold{H2372} his face.{H6440}
