Psalms 11:6
Compare all
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. 
6 Upon the wicked He will rain coals;
Fire and brimstone and a burning wind
aShall be1 the portion of their cup. 
7 For the Lord is righteous,
He aloves righteousness;
1His countenance beholds the upright.

Psalms 11:6

Rain - Send them plentifully, swiftly, and suddenly, as rain commonly falls from heaven. Snares - Grievous plagues or judgments, which are called snares, because wicked men are often surprized with them when they least expect them. And because they cannot escape them, or get out of them; but are held fast and destroyed by them. Horrible tempests - Dreadful judgments so called, in allusion to the destruction of Sodom by these means. But this he seems to speak not so much of present calamities, as of eternal punishments. This - Is their portion, and as it were the meat and drink appointed them by God.
