Psalms 11:2 - Forerunner Commentary

Psalms 11:2

Faith in the Lord’s Righteousness

To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.

1 In ^athe Lord I put my trust;
How can you say to my soul,
“Flee as a bird to your mountain”?

2 For look! ^aThe wicked bend their bow,
They make ready their arrow on the string,
That they may shoot¹ secretly at the upright in heart.

3 ^aIf the foundations are destroyed,
What can the righteous do?

4 The Lord is in His holy temple,
The Lord’s ^athrone is in heaven;
^bHis eyes behold,
His eyelids test the sons of men.

5 The Lord ^atests the righteous,
But the wicked and the one who loves violence His soul hates.
