1 In the Lord I have taken shelter.How can you say to me,“Flee to a mountain like a bird!
2 For look, the wicked prepare their bows,they put their arrows on the strings,to shoot in the darkness at the morally upright.
3 When the foundations are destroyed,what can the godly accomplish?”
4 The Lord is in his holy temple;the Lord’s throne is in heaven.His eyes watch;his eyes examine all people.
5 The Lord approves of the godly,but he hates the wicked and those who love to do violence.
6 May the Lord rain down burning coals and brimstone on the wicked!A whirlwind is what they deserve!
7 Certainly the Lord is just;he rewards godly deeds;the upright will experience his favor.
