1To the choirmaster. Of David. In the Lord I take refuge; how can you say to my soul, “Flee like a bird to your mountain, (1صم 23:14; 1صم 23:19; 1صم 24:2; 1صم 26:19)2for behold, the wicked bend the bow; they have fitted their arrow to the string to shoot in the dark at the upright in heart; (مز 7:10; مز 7:12; مز 21:12; مز 58:7; مز 64:4; إر 9:3)3if the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?”[1] (مز 82:5; حز 30:4)4The Lord is in his holy temple; the Lord’s throne is in heaven; his eyes see, his eyelids test the children of man. (أي 23:10; مز 2:4; مز 18:6; إش 66:1; مي 1:2; حب 2:20; مت 5:34; مت 23:22; أع 7:49)5The Lord tests the righteous, but his soul hates the wicked and the one who loves violence. (تك 22:1; مز 5:5; يع 1:12)6Let him rain coals on the wicked; fire and sulfur and a scorching wind shall be the portion of their cup. (تك 19:24; أي 18:15; أي 21:20; مز 75:8; حز 38:22)7For the Lord is righteous; he loves righteous deeds; the upright shall behold his face. (مز 17:15; مز 33:5; مز 140:13; 1يو 3:2; رؤ 22:4)
