The Book of Psalms

Chapter 11

American Standard Version

Ps 11:1In Jehovah do I take refuge: How say ye to my soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain;
Ps 11:2For, lo, the wicked bend the bow, They make ready their arrow upon the string, That they may shoot in darkness at the upright in heart;
Ps 11:3If the foundations be destroyed, What can the righteous do?
Ps 11:4Jehovah is in his holy temple; Jehovah, his throne is in heaven; His eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men.
Ps 11:5Jehovah trieth the righteous; But the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.
Ps 11:6Upon the wicked he will rain snares; Fire and brimstone and burning wind shall be the portion of their cup.
Ps 11:7For Jehovah is righteous; he loveth righteousness: The upright shall behold his face. For the Chief Musician; set to the Sheminith. A Psalm of David.
