| # Chapter 11
#### 1 | For the chief music-maker. Of David. In the Lord put I my faith; how will you say to my soul, Go in flight like a bird to the mountain?
#### 2 | See, the bows of the evil-doers are bent, they make ready their arrows on the cord, so that they may send them secretly against the upright in heart.
#### 3 | If the bases are broken down, what is the upright man to do?
#### 4 | The Lord is in his holy Temple, the Lord's seat is in heaven; his eyes are watching and testing the children of men.
#### 5 | The Lord puts the upright and the sinner to the test, but he has hate in his soul for the lover of violent acts.
#### 6 | On the evil-doer he will send down fire and flames, and a burning wind; with these will their cup be full.
#### 7 | For the Lord is upright; he is a lover of righteousness: the upright will see his face.
