For the choirmaster. Of David. In the Lord I take refuge. How then can you say to me: “Flee like a bird to your mountain! (LXX 10:1; Rahlfs 10:1)
לַמְנַצֵּ֗חַ לְדָ֫וִ֥ד בַּֽיהוָ֨ה ׀ חָסִ֗יתִי אֵ֭יךְ תֹּאמְר֣וּ לְנַפְשִׁ֑י נודו הַרְכֶ֥ם צִפּֽוֹר׃
2For behold, the wicked bend their bows. They set their arrow on the string to shoot from the shadows at the upright in heart. (LXX 10:2; Rahlfs 10:2)
כִּ֤י הִנֵּ֪ה הָרְשָׁעִ֡ים יִדְרְכ֬וּן קֶ֗שֶׁת כּוֹנְנ֣וּ חִצָּ֣ם עַל־יֶ֑תֶר לִיר֥וֹת בְּמוֹ־אֹ֝֗פֶל לְיִשְׁרֵי־לֵֽב׃
3If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?” (LXX 10:3; Rahlfs 10:3)
כִּ֣י הַ֭שָּׁתוֹת יֵֽהָרֵס֑וּן צַ֝דִּ֗יק מַה־פָּעָֽל׃
4The Lord is in His holy temple; the Lord is on His heavenly throne. His eyes are watching closely; they examine the sons of men. (LXX 10:4; Rahlfs 10:4)
יְהוָ֤ה ׀ בְּֽהֵ֘יכַ֤ל קָדְשׁ֗וֹ יְהוָה֮ בַּשָּׁמַ֪יִם כִּ֫סְא֥וֹ עֵינָ֥יו יֶחֱז֑וּ עַפְעַפָּ֥יו יִ֝בְחֲנ֗וּ בְּנֵ֣י אָדָֽם׃
5The Lord tests the righteous and the wicked; His soul hates the lover of violence. (LXX 10:5; Rahlfs 10:5)
יְהוָה֮ צַדִּ֪יק יִ֫בְחָ֥ן וְ֭רָשָׁע וְאֹהֵ֣ב חָמָ֑ס שָֽׂנְאָ֥ה נַפְשֽׁוֹ׃
6On the wicked He will rain down fiery coals and sulfur; a scorching wind will be their portion. (LXX 10:6; Rahlfs 10:6)
יַמְטֵ֥ר עַל־רְשָׁעִ֗ים פַּ֫חִ֥ים אֵ֣שׁ וְ֭גָפְרִית וְר֥וּחַ זִלְעָפ֗וֹת מְנָ֣ת כּוֹסָֽם׃
7For the Lord is righteous; He loves justice. The upright will see His face. (LXX 10:7; Rahlfs 10:7)
כִּֽי־צַדִּ֣יק יְ֭הוָה צְדָק֣וֹת אָהֵ֑ב יָ֝שָׁ֗ר יֶחֱז֥וּ פָנֵֽימוֹ׃
