Psalms
Chapter 11King James Version
Berean Standard Bible
1In the LORD put I my trust: how say ye to my soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain?
In the LORD I take refuge. How then can you say to me: “Flee like a bird to your mountain!
2For, lo, the wicked bend their bow, they make ready their arrow upon the string, that they may privily shoot at the upright in heart.
For behold, the wicked bend their bows. They set their arrow on the string to shoot from the shadows at the upright in heart.
3If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?
If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?”
4The LORD is in his holy temple, the LORD’s throne is in heaven: his eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men.
The LORD is in His holy temple; the LORD is on His heavenly throne. His eyes are watching closely; they examine the sons of men.
5The LORD trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.
The LORD tests the righteous and the wicked; His soul hates the lover of violence.
6Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone, and an horrible tempest: this shall be the portion of their cup.
On the wicked He will rain down fiery coals and sulfur; a scorching wind will be their portion.
7For the righteous LORD loveth righteousness; his countenance doth behold the upright.
For the LORD is righteous; He loves justice. The upright will see His face.
