Psalm 10

1 Εἰς τὸ τέλος· ψαλμὸς τῷ Δαυΐδ. ΕΠΙ τῷ Κυρίῳ πέποιθα· πῶς ἐρεῖτε τῇ ψυχῇ μου· μεταναστεύου ἐπὶ τὰ ὄρη ὡς στρουθίον;

1 (11 in KJV) For the end, a Psalm of David. In the Lord I have put my trust: how will you⌃ say to my soul, Flee to the mountains as a sparrow? (verse 10:1-2 in Brenton's English)

2 ὅτι ἰδοὺ οἱ ἁμαρτωλοὶ ἐνέτειναν τόξον, ἡτοίμασαν βέλη εἰς φαρέτραν τοῦ κατατοξεῦσαι ἐν σκοτομήνῃ τοὺς εὐθεῖς τῇ καρδίᾳ.

2 For behold the sinners have bent their [bow], they have prepared their arrows for the quiver, to shoot privily at the upright in heart. (verse 3 in Brenton's English)

3 ὅτι ἃ σὺ κατηρτίσω, αὐτοὶ καθεῖλον· ὁ δὲ δίκαιος τί ἐποίησε;

3 For they have pulled down what you did frame, but what has the righteous done? (verse 4 in Brenton's English)

4 Κύριος ἐν ναῷ ἁγίῳ αὐτοῦ· Κύριος ἐν οὐρανῷ ὁ θρόνος αὐτοῦ. οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸν πένητα ἀποβλέπουσι, τὰ βλέφαρα αὐτοῦ ἐξετάζει τοὺς υἱοὺς τῶν ἀνθρώπων.

4 The Lord is in his holy temple, as for the Lord, his throne is in heaven: his eyes look upon the poor, his eyelids try the sons of men. (verse 5 in Brenton's English)

5 Κύριος ἐξετάζει τὸν δίκαιον καὶ τὸν ἀσεβῆ, ὁ δὲ ἀγαπῶν τὴν ἀδικίαν μισεῖ τὴν ἑαυτοῦ ψυχήν.

5 The Lord tries the righteous and the ungodly: and he that loves unrighteousness hates his own soul. (verse 6 in Brenton's English)

6 ἐπιβρέξει ἐπὶ ἁμαρτωλοὺς παγίδας, πῦρ καὶ θεῖον καὶ πνεῦμα καταιγίδος ἡ μερὶς τοῦ ποτηρίου αὐτῶν.

6 He shall rain upon sinners snares, fire, and brimstone, and a stormy blast [shall be] the portion of their cup. (verse 7 in Brenton's English)

7 ὅτι δίκαιος Κύριος, καὶ δικαιοσύνας ἠγάπησεν, εὐθύτητας εἶδε τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ.

7 For the Lord [is] righteous, and loves righteousness; his face beholds uprightness. (verse 8 in Brenton's English)
