1 I trust in the Lord for safety.How foolish of you to say to me,“Fly away like a bird to the mountains,
2 because the wicked have drawn their bows and aimed their arrowsto shoot from the shadows at good people.
3 There is nothing a good person can dowhen everything falls apart.”
4 The Lord is in his holy temple;he has his throne in heaven.He watches people everywhereand knows what they are doing.
5 He examines the good and the wicked alike;the lawless he hates with all his heart.
