• 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.
