\d A psalm written by David for the choir director
|
|
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 1 I trust that Yahweh will protect me.
|
|
\q2 So I do not fly off to the mountains like birds do.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 2 It is true that wicked people have hidden in the darkness,
|
|
\q1 that they have pulled back their bowstrings and aimed their arrows
|
|
\q2 to shoot them at people who honor Yahweh.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 3 When wicked people do not suffer for disobeying the laws,
|
|
\q2 what can righteous people do?
|
|
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 4 But Yahweh is sitting on his throne in his sacred temple in heaven,
|
|
\q2 and he sees everything that people do.
|

|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 5 Yahweh examines what righteous people do and what wicked people do,
|
|
\q2 and he hates those who love to injure others.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 6 He will send down from the sky flaming coals and burning sulfur on the wicked;
|
|
\q2 he will send scorching hot winds to punish them.
|
|
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 7 Yahweh does everything that is right, and he loves those who do what is right;
|
|
\q2 such people will come into his presence.
