Psalm 11 NIV
For the director of music. Of David.
1 In the LORD I take refuge.
How then can you say to me:
"Flee like a bird to your mountain. 2 For look, the wicked bend their bows;
they set their arrows against the strings
to shoot from the shadows
at the upright in heart. 3 When the foundations are being destroyed,
what can the righteous do [a] " 4 The LORD is in his holy temple;
the LORD is on his heavenly throne.
He observes the sons of men;
his eyes examine them. 5 The LORD examines the righteous,
but the wicked [b] and those who love violence
his soul hates. 6 On the wicked he will rain
fiery coals and burning sulfur;
a scorching wind will be their lot. 7 For the LORD is righteous,
he loves justice;
upright men will see his face.Footnotes:
