¹ The Lord is my fortress!
    Don't say to me,
    "Escape like a bird
    to the mountains!"
² You tell me, "Watch out!
Those evil people
    have put
    their arrows on their bows,
and they are standing
in the shadows,
    aiming at good people.
³ What can an honest person do
    when everything crumbles?"

⁴ The Lord is sitting
in his sacred temple
    on his throne in heaven.
He knows everything we do
    because he sees us all.
⁵ The Lord tests honest people,
but despises those
    who are cruel
    and love violence.
⁶ He will send fiery coals^[a]
and flaming sulfur
    down on the wicked,
and they will drink nothing
    but a scorching wind.

⁷ The Lord always does right
    and wants justice done.
    Everyone who does right
    will see his face.
