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