The providence and justice of God. (To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.)

¹⁾In thethat LORDday thou shalt come, O Lord; and I will put I my trust: howin thee. Thou shalt say yeunto tothy mypeople, for mine ear hath heard thy voice; thou shalt say unto every soul, Flee asunto my mountain; and the righteous shall flee like a bird tothat youris mountain?let go from the snare of the fowler.

²⁾For, lo, the wicked bend their bow; lo, they make ready their arrow upon the string, that they may privily shoot at the upright in heart, to destroy their foundation.

³⁾IfBut the foundations of the wicked shall be destroyed, and what can the righteousthey do?

⁴⁾TheFor LORDthe isLord, inwhen he shall come into his holy temple, thesitting LORD'supon God's throne is in heaven:, his eyes behold,shall his eyelids try,pierce the children of menwicked.

⁵⁾TheBehold LORDhis trietheyelids shall try the children of men, and he shall redeem the righteous:, and they shall be tried. The Lord loveth the righteous, but the wicked, and him that loveth violence, his soul hateth.

⁶⁾Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire, and brimstone, and ana horrible tempest: this shall be, the portion of their cup.

⁷⁾For the righteous LORDLord loveth righteousness; his countenance doth behold the upright.
