Psalms 11
Yahweh Is in His Holy Temple
1 In Yahweh I (C1)take refuge; 
How can you say to my soul, "Flee as a bird to your (C2)mountain;
2 For, behold, the wicked (C1)bend the bow, 
They (F1)(C2)make ready their arrow upon the string 
To (C3)shoot in darkness at the upright in heart.
3 "If the (C1)foundations are destroyed, 
What can the righteous do?"
4 Yahweh is in His (C1)holy temple; (F1)Yahweh's (C2)throne is in heaven; 
His (C3)eyes behold, His eyelids test the sons of men.
5 Yahweh (C1)tests the righteous, 
But (C2)the wicked and the one who loves violence His soul hates.
6 May He (C1)rain (F1)snares upon the wicked; 
(C2)Fire and brimstone and (C3)burning wind will be the portion of (C4)their cup.
7 For Yahweh is (C1)righteous, (C2)He loves (F1)righteousness; 
The upright will (C3)behold His face.
