Psa Psalms, psalm Book of Psalms, psalm 11
For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.
In Jehovah do I take refuge:
How say ye to my soul,
Flee as a bird to your mountain;Psa 55:22; 1Sa 24:1; 1Sa 26:20
For, lo, the wicked bend the bow,
They make ready their arrow upon the string,
That they may shoot in darkness at the upright in heart;
If the foundations be destroyed,
What can the righteous do?
Jehovah is in his holy temple;
Jehovah, his throne is in heaven;
His eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men.Isa 66:1; Hab 2:20; Mat 5:34
Jehovah trieth the righteous;
But the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.
Upon the wicked he will rain snares;
Fire and brimstone and burning wind shall be the portion of their cup.Gen 19:24; Jer 23:19
For Jehovah is righteous; he loveth righteousness:
The upright shall behold his face.
