Psalm 11

Psalm 11

Psalm 11:1[1] I have taken refuge in Yahveh. How can you say to my throat, “Escape to the mountains like a bird!

Psalm 11:2 “Because notice, the wicked ones are stringing bows; they put their arrows on bowstrings to shoot from the shadows at the ones whose hearts are upright.

Psalm 11:3 “When the foundations we depend on are destroyed, what can the righteous ones do? “

Psalm 11:4 Yahveh is in his holy temple; Yahveh –his throne is in the sky. His eyes are watching; his gaze is examining the children of Adam.

Psalm 11:5 Yahveh examines the righteous, but his throat hates the wicked and those who love violence.

Psalm 11:6 Let him rain burning coals and sulfur on the wicked ones; let a scorching wind be the portion in their cup.

Psalm 11:7 Because Yahveh is righteous; he loves righteous deeds. The upright will see his face.[2]
