Psalm 11

Devotionals, Articles, and Bible Study Resources on Psalm 11

1In the LORD I take refuge.
How then can you say to me:
“Flee like a bird to your mountain!
2For behold, the wicked bend their bows.
They set their arrow on the string
to shoot from the shadows at the upright in heart.
3If the foundations are destroyed,
what can the righteous do?”
4The LORD is in His holy temple;
the LORD is on His heavenly throne.
His eyes are watching closely;
they examine the sons of men.
5The LORD tests the righteous and the wicked;
His soul hates the lover of violence.
6On the wicked He will rain down fiery coals and sulfur;
a scorching wind will be their portion.
7For the LORD is righteous; He loves justice.
The upright will see His face.
— Psalm 11
