Psalms 10
1 For the end, a Psalm of David.
In the Lord I have put my trust: how will ye say to my soul, Flee to the
mountains as a sparrow? 2 For behold
the sinners have bent their bow, they have prepared
their arrows for the quiver, to shoot
aGr. in dark moon, or little moonlight, q. d. luce malignâ.privily at the upright in heart.
3 For they have pulled down what thou
didst frame, but what has the righteous done?
4 The Lord is in his holy temple, as
for the Lord, his throne is in heaven: his eyes look upon the poor, his
eyelids try the sons of men. 5 The
Lord tries the righteous and the ungodly: and he that loves unrighteousness
hates his own soul. 6 He shall rain
upon sinners snares, fire, and brimstone, and a stormy blast
shall be the portion of their cup.
7 For the Lord
is righteous, and loves
bGr. righteousnesses.righteousness; his face beholds uprightness.
