Psalms 11: (ASV)
|
1) In Jehovah do I take refuge: How say ye to my soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain;
|
2) 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;
|
3) If the foundations be destroyed, What can the righteous do?
|
4) Jehovah is in his holy temple; Jehovah, his throne is in heaven; His eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men.
|
5) Jehovah trieth the righteous; But the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.
|
6) Upon the wicked he will rain snares; Fire and brimstone and burning wind shall be the portion of their cup.
|
7) For Jehovah is righteous; he loveth righteousness: The upright shall behold his face.
