Psalm 11

Faith, Not Flight

Heading

For the choir director. By David.

The Fear of the Fainthearted

¹In the Lord I take refuge.
How can you say to my soul:
“Flee to your mountain like a bird.
²Look! The wicked bend their bow.
They set their arrow against the string
to shoot in the darkness at the upright in heart.
³When the foundations are being torn down,
what can the righteous do?”

David’s Answer

⁴The Lord is in his holy temple.
The Lord is on his throne in heaven.
His eyes observe.
He focuses on^[1] the children of Adam.^[2]
⁵The Lord is righteous.
He examines the wicked.
He really hates^[3] those who love violence.
⁶On the wicked he will rain down fiery coals and sulfur.^[4]
A scorching wind will be the cup given to them.
⁷Indeed, the Lord is righteous. He loves righteousness.
The upright will view his face.

Psalm 12

Proud Words vs. Pure Words

Heading

For the choir director. According to sheminith.^[5] A psalm by David.

The Proud Words of the Ungodly

¹Save us, Lord, for the merciful have disappeared.
The faithful have vanished from among mankind.

²Everyone speaks falsehood to his neighbor.
Their flattering lips speak double-talk.^[6]
³May the Lord cut off all flattering lips.
May he cut off every tongue that speaks boastfully,
⁴which says, “With our tongues we will establish our power.
We say what we please.^[7] Who is lord over us?”

The Pure Words of the Lord

⁵“Because of the destruction of the oppressed,
because of the groaning of the poor,
now I will rise up,” says the Lord.
“I will keep him safe from the one who puffs against him.”^[8]
⁶The words of the Lord are pure words,
like silver refined in a furnace on the ground, purified seven times.
⁷You, Lord, will keep them safe.
You will protect them from such people forever.
⁸The wicked strut around
when depravity is honored by the children of Adam.

Footnotes

Psalm 11:4 Literally his eyelids test
Psalm 11:4 Or sons of man, that is, all mankind
Psalm 11:5 Literally his soul hates
Psalm 11:6 The Hebrew text reads snares, fire, and sulfur. The translation follows one Greek version, which inverts two letters in one Hebrew word, changing snares to fiery coals.
Psalm 12:1 Sheminith is apparently derived from the Hebrew word for eight. It may refer to an eight-stringed instrument, to the bass voice, to low-pitched stringed instruments, or, most likely, to a method for tuning a stringed instrument (1 Chronicles 15:21).
Psalm 12:2 Literally speak with a heart and a heart
Psalm 12:4 Literally our lips are with us
Psalm 12:5 Or in the safety he desires
