11

1   In the Lord I have found my refuge; why do you say to me,
  ‘Flee to the mountains like a bird;
2   see how the wicked string their bows
  and fit the arrow to the string,
  to shoot down honest men out of the darkness’?
3   When foundations are undermined, what can the good man do?
     4   The Lord is in his holy temple,
  the Lord's throne is in heaven.
His eye is upon mankind, he takes their measure at a glance.
5   The Lord weighs just and unjust
  and hates with all his soul the lover of violence.
   6   He shall rain down red-hot coals upon the wicked;
brimstone and scorching winds shall be the cup they drink.
7   For the Lord is just and loves just dealing;
  his face is turned towards the upright man.
