# Psalm 11 To the choirmaster. Of David. 
<a id="1" name="1"></a>
1. In the LORD I take refuge; how can you say to my soul, “Flee like a bird to your mountain, 
<a id="2" name="2"></a>
2. for behold, the wicked bend the bow; they have fitted their arrow to the string to shoot in the dark at the upright in heart; 
<a id="3" name="3"></a>
3. if the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?” 
<a id="4" name="4"></a>
4. The LORD is in his holy temple; the LORD’s throne is in heaven; his eyes see, his eyelids test the children of man. 
<a id="5" name="5"></a>
5. The LORD tests the righteous, but his soul hates the wicked and the one who loves violence. 
<a id="6" name="6"></a>
6. Let him rain coals on the wicked; fire and sulfur and a scorching wind shall be the portion of their cup. 
<a id="7" name="7"></a>
7. For the LORD is righteous; he loves righteous deeds; the upright shall behold his face.
