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