<< Psalm 11 >>
GOD'S WORD ® Translation |  |
1 For the choir director; by David. I have taken refuge in the LORD. How can you say to me: "Flee to your mountain like a bird?
2 Wicked people bend their bows. They set their arrows against the strings to shoot in the dark at people whose motives are decent.
3 When the foundations of life are undermined, what can a righteous person do?"
4 The LORD is in his holy temple. The LORD's throne is in heaven. His eyes see. They examine Adam's descendants.
5 The LORD tests righteous people, but he hates wicked people and the ones who love violence.
6 He rains down fire and burning sulfur upon wicked people. He makes them drink from a cup filled with scorching wind.
7 The LORD is righteous. He loves a righteous way of life. Decent people will see his face.
