11:1  [For the choir director; by David.] I have taken refuge in the LORD. How can you say to me: "Flee to your mountain like a bird?
11:2  Wicked people bend their bows. They set their arrows against the strings to shoot in the dark at people whose motives are decent.
11:3  When the foundations [of life] are undermined, what can a righteous person do?"
11:4  The LORD is in his holy temple. The LORD's throne is in heaven. His eyes see. They examine Adam's descendants.
11:5  The LORD tests righteous people, but he hates wicked people and the ones who love violence.
11:6  He rains down fire and burning sulfur upon wicked people. He makes them drink from a cup filled with scorching wind.
11:7  The LORD is righteous. He loves a righteous way of life. Decent people will see his face.
