| Chapter 11 |
1 | In Yahweh do I take refuge. How can you say to my soul, 'Flee as a bird to your mountain!'
|
2 | For, behold, the wicked bend their bows. They set their arrows on the strings, That they may shoot in darkness at the upright in heart.
|
3 | If the foundations are destroyed, What can the righteous do?
|
4 | Yahweh is in his holy temple. Yahweh is on his throne in heaven. His eyes observe. His eyes examine the children of men.
|
5 | Yahweh examines the righteous, But the wicked and him who loves violence his soul hates.
|
6 | On the wicked he will rain blazing coals; Fire, sulfur, and scorching wind shall be the portion of their cup.
|
7 | For Yahweh is righteous. He loves righteousness. The upright shall see his face. Psalm 12 For the Chief Musician; upon an eight-stringed lyre. A Psalm of David.
