(Psalm 11)
I Trust in the LORD for safety.
How foolish of you to say to me,
“Fly away like a bird to the mountains,
because the wicked have drawn their bows
and aimed there arrows
to shoot at good men in the darkness.
There is nothing a good man can do
when everything falls apart.”
The LORD is in his holy temple;
he has his throne in heaven.
He watches people everywhere
and knows what they are doing.
He examines the good and the wicked alike;
the lawless he hates with all his heart.
He send down flaming coals and burning sulfur
on the wicked;
he punishes them with scorching winds.
The LORD is righteous and loves good deeds;
those who do them will live in his presence.
