Psalms 11
Psalm 11
For the director of music. Of David.
1 In the Lord I take refuge.(a)
How then can you say to me:
"Flee(b) like a bird to your mountain.(c)
2 For look, the wicked bend their bows;(d)
they set their arrows(e) against the strings
to shoot from the shadows(f)
at the upright in heart.(g)
3 When the foundations(h) are being destroyed,
what can the righteous do?"
4 The Lord is in his holy temple;(i)
the Lord is on his heavenly throne.(j)
He observes everyone on earth;(k)
his eyes examine(l) them.
5 The Lord examines the righteous,(m)
but the wicked, those who love violence,
he hates with a passion.(n)
6 On the wicked he will rain
fiery coals and burning sulfur;(o)
a scorching wind(p) will be their lot.
7 For the Lord is righteous,(q)
he loves justice;(r)
the upright(s) will see his face.(t)
