"In the Lord I take refuge
How then can you say to me:
"Flee like a bird to your mountain"
For look, the wicked bend their bows;
they set their arrows against the strings
to shoot from the shadows
at the upright in heart
When the foundations are being destroyed,
what can the righteous do?
The Lord is in His holy temple
The Lord is on His heavenly throne
He observes everyone on earth;
His eyes examine them
The Lord examines the righteous
but the wicked, those who love violence
He hates with a passion
On the wicked He will rain
fiery coals and burning sulfur;
a scorching wind will be their lot.
For the Lord is righteous,
He loves justice;
The upright will see His face.
Psalm 11
