Psalms 11
David encourageth himself in God against his enemies.
Psalms 11:1 {To the chief Musician, [A Psalm] of David.} In the LORD I put my trust: how say ye to my soul, Flee [as] a bird to your mountain? Psalms 11:2 For lo, the wicked bend [their] bow, they make ready their arrow upon the string, that they may privily shoot at the upright in heart. Psalms 11:3 If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?
The providence and justice of God.
Psalms 11:4 The LORD [is] in his holy temple, the LORD'S throne [is] in heaven: his eyes behold, his eyelids try the children of men. Psalms 11:5 The LORD trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth. Psalms 11:6 Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone, and a horrible tempest: [this shall be] the portion of their cup. Psalms 11:7 For the righteous LORD loveth righteousness; his countenance beholdeth the upright.
