Psalm 11
King James Version
11 In the Lord put I my trust: how say ye to my soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain?
2 For, lo, the wicked bend their bow, they make ready their arrow upon the string, that they may privily shoot at the upright in heart.
3 If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?
4 The Lord is in his holy temple, the Lord's throne is in heaven: his eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men.
5 The Lord trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.
6 Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone, and an horrible tempest: this shall be the portion of their cup.
7 For the righteous Lord loveth righteousness; his countenance doth behold the upright.
Psalm 11
Amplified Bible
The Lord a Refuge and Defense.
To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.
11 In the Lord I take refuge [and put my trust];
How can you say to me, “Flee like a bird to your mountain;
2
For look, the wicked are bending the bow;
They take aim with their arrow on the string
To shoot [by stealth] in darkness at the upright in heart.
3
“If the foundations [of a godly society] are destroyed,
What can the righteous do?”
4
The Lord is in His holy temple; the Lord’s throne is in heaven.
His eyes see, His eyelids test the children of men.(A)
5
The Lord tests the righteous and the wicked,
And His soul hates the [malevolent] one who loves violence.(B)
6
Upon the wicked (godless) He will rain coals of fire;
Fire and [a]brimstone and a dreadful scorching wind will be the portion of their cup [of doom].
7
For the Lord is [absolutely] righteous, He loves righteousness (virtue, morality, justice);
The upright shall see His face.

Reina-Valera 1960
El refugio del justo
Al músico principal. Salmo de David.
11 En Jehová he confiado;
¿Cómo decís a mi alma,
Que escape al monte cual ave?
2 Porque he aquí, los malos tienden el arco,
Disponen sus saetas sobre la cuerda,
Para asaetear en oculto a los rectos de corazón.
3 Si fueren destruidos los fundamentos,
¿Qué ha de hacer el justo?
4 Jehová está en su santo templo;
Jehová tiene en el cielo su trono;
Sus ojos ven, sus párpados examinan a los hijos de los hombres.
5 Jehová prueba al justo;
Pero al malo y al que ama la violencia, su alma los aborrece.
6 Sobre los malos hará llover calamidades;
Fuego, azufre y viento abrasador será la porción del cáliz de ellos.
7 Porque Jehová es justo, y ama la justicia;
El hombre recto mirará su rostro.
