Psalm 11 – NIRV & CST

New International Reader’s Version

Psalm 11:1-7

Psalm 11

For the director of music. A psalm of David.

1I run to the Lord for safety.

So how can you say to me,

“Fly away like a bird to your mountain.

2Look! Evil people are bending their bows.

They are placing their arrows against the strings.

They are planning to shoot from the shadows

at those who have honest hearts.

3When law and order are being destroyed,

what can godly people do?”

4The Lord is in his holy temple.

The Lord is on his throne in heaven.

He watches everyone on earth.

His eyes study them.

5The Lord watches over those who do what is right.

But he really hates sinful people and those who love to hurt others.

6He will pour out flaming coals and burning sulfur

on those who do what is wrong.

A hot and dry wind will destroy them.

7The Lord always does what is right.

So he loves it when people do what is fair.

Those who are honest will enjoy his blessing.

Salmo 11:1-7

Salmo 11

Al director musical. Salmo de David.

1En el Señor hallo refugio.

¿Cómo, pues, os atrevéis a decirme:

«Huye al monte, como las aves»?

2Ved cómo tensan sus arcos los malvados:

preparan las flechas sobre la cuerda

para disparar desde las sombras

contra los rectos de corazón.

3Cuando los fundamentos son destruidos,

¿qué le queda al justo?

4El Señor está en su santo templo,

en los cielos tiene el Señor su trono,

y atentamente observa al ser humano;

con sus propios ojos lo examina.

5El Señor examina a justos y a malvados,

y aborrece a los que aman la violencia.

6Hará llover sobre los malvados

ardientes brasas y candente azufre;

¡un viento abrasador será su suerte!

7Justo es el Señor, y ama la justicia;

por eso los íntegros contemplarán su rostro.
