They make ready their arrow on the string,
That they may shoot1 secretly at the upright in heart.
The Lord’s athrone is in heaven;
bHis eyes behold,
His eyelids test the sons of men.
Fire and brimstone and a burning wind
aShall be1 the portion of their cup.

Psalms 11:4
Temple - In heaven; which is mentioned as an evidence of his glorious majesty, of his sovereign power and dominion over all men and things, and of his accurate inspection into all men and their actions. Throne - Where he sits to examine all causes, and to give righteous sentence according to every man's works. Try - He throughly discerns all men, their most inward and secret actions: and therefore he sees and will reward my innocency, notwithstanding all the calumnies of mine enemies; and withal he sees all their secret designs, and will discover and defeat them.
