Psalms 11

New Revised Standard NRS

1 In the Lord I take refuge; how can you say to me, "Flee like a bird to the mountains;

2 for look, the wicked bend the bow, they have fitted their arrow to the string, to shoot in the dark at the upright in heart.

3 If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?"

4 The Lord is in his holy temple; the Lord's throne is in heaven. His eyes behold, his gaze examines humankind.

5 The Lord tests the righteous and the wicked, and his soul hates the lover of violence.

6 On the wicked he will rain coals of fire and sulfur; a scorching wind shall be the portion of their cup.

7 For the Lord is righteous; he loves righteous deeds; the upright shall behold his face.

New International Version NIV

1 In the LORD I take refuge. How then can you say to me: “Flee like a bird to your mountain.

2 For look, the wicked bend their bows; they set their arrows against the strings to shoot from the shadows at the upright in heart.

3 When the foundations are being destroyed, what can the righteous do?”

4 The LORD is in his holy temple; the LORD is on his heavenly throne. He observes everyone on earth; his eyes examine them.

5 The LORD examines the righteous, but the wicked, those who love violence, he hates with a passion.

6 On the wicked he will rain fiery coals and burning sulfur; a scorching wind will be their lot.

7 For the LORD is righteous, he loves justice; the upright will see his face.
