Trusting God for fair process

Psa 11:1–7

11:1 Trusting God for fair process

11 For the musical director: a song by David.

1 I’ve taken refuge in Yahweh.

How can you tell me,

Flutter away to your mountain like a bird?

2 Because, look, wicked people are getting their bows ready.

They’ve got their arrows lined up on the strings

to shoot at the godly people in the darkness.

3 If the foundations get destroyed,

what can good people do then?

4 Yahweh’s in his sacred temple.

His eyes watch—his eyes examine humanity’s children.

5 Yahweh examines both good people and the wicked,

but he hates those who love to inflict violence.

6 He rains burning coals and sulfur onto the wicked.

≈ He’ll send scorching hot winds to punish them

7 because Yahweh loves what is right, and that’s what he does.

Godly people will get to stand in front of him.
