Psalms 11
David encourages himself in God against his enemies
1 In יהוה (Yahweh,God,Elohim) I have taken refuge; Why do you say to me, “Flee to your mountain like a bird”?
2 For look! The wrong bend a bow, They set their arrow on the string, To shoot in darkness at the upright in heart.
3 When the foundations are destroyed, What shall the righteous do?
The providence and justice of God
4 יהוה (Yahweh,God,Elohim) is in His set-apart Hĕḵal, The throne of יהוה (Yahweh,God,Elohim) is in the heavens. His eyes see, His eyelids examine the sons of men.
5 יהוה (Yahweh,God,Elohim) tries the righteous, But His being shall hate the wrong And the one who loves violence.
6 Upon the wrong He rains snares, Fire and sulphur and a scorching wind Are the portion of their cup.
7 For יהוה (Yahweh,God,Elohim) is righteous, He has loved righteousness; The upright shall see His face.
