Psalms
Chapter 11
1 1 For the leader. Of David. In the LORD I take refuge; how can you say to me, ＂Flee like a bird to the mountains!
达味作，交与乐官。上主是我的避难所，你们怎么能对我说：＂象只小鸟，飞往深山！
2 See how the wicked string their bows, fit their arrows to the string to shoot from the shadows at the upright.
看，恶人挽弓搭箭，向心诚的人暗算。
3 2 When foundations are being destroyed, what can the upright do?＂
基础既已全部崩溃，义人还能有何作为？＂
4 The LORD is in his holy temple; the LORD'S throne is in heaven. God's eyes keep careful watch; they test all peoples.
上主住在自己的圣殿，上主的宝座设主于天；他的眼睛垂视下地，他的目光细察人子，
5 The LORD tests the good and the bad, hates those who love violence,
上主审察着义人与恶人；全心痛恨那爱蛮横的人，
6 3 And rains upon the wicked fiery coals and brimstone, a scorching wind their allotted cup.
上主使火碳硫磺降于恶人之身，干燥的热风将是他们杯中之分。
7 The LORD is just and loves just deeds; the upright shall see his face.
上主是正义的，他酷爱公正，心诚的人必得见他的仪容。

Footnotes（注解）
1 [Psalm 11] A song of trust. Though friends counsel flight to the mountain country (a traditional hideout) to escape trouble (Psalm 11:1-3), the innocent psalmist reaffirms confidence in God, who protects those who seek asylum in the temple (Psalm 11:4-7).
2 [3] Foundations: usually understood of public order. Cf Psalm 82:5.
3 [6] Their allotted cup: the cup that God gives people to drink is a common figure for their destiny. Cf Psalm 16:5; 75:9; Matthew 20:22; 26:39; Rev 14:10.
