[For the end, a Psalm of David.][1]In the Lord I have put my trust: how will ye say to my soul, Flee to the mountains as a sparrow?[2]For behold the sinners have bent their bow, they have prepared their arrows for the quiver, to shoot privily at the upright in heart.[3]For they have pulled down what thou didst frame, but what has the righteous done?[4]The Lord is in his holy temple, as for the Lord, his throne is in heaven: his eyes look upon the poor, his eyelids try the sons of men.[5]The Lord tries the righteous and the ungodly: and he that loves unrighteousness hates his own soul.[6]He shall rain upon sinners snares, fire, and brimstone, and a stormy blast shall be the portion of their cup.[7]For the Lord is righteous, and loves righteousness; his face beholds uprightness.
