Psalms 11

Psalm 11 1

For the music director; by David.

In the Lord I have taken shelter.

How can you say to me,

“Flee to a mountain like a bird!

2

For look, the wicked prepare their bows,

they put their arrows on the strings,

to shoot in the darkness at the morally upright.

3

When the foundations are destroyed,

what can the godly accomplish?”

4

The Lord is in his holy temple;

the Lord’s throne is in heaven.

His eyes watch;

his eyes examine all people.

5

The Lord approves of the godly,

but he hates the wicked and those who love to do violence.

6

May the Lord rain down burning coals and brimstone on the wicked!

A whirlwind is what they deserve!

7

Certainly the Lord is just;

he rewards godly deeds;

the upright will experience his favor.
