Psalms 11:1-3

11In the Lord I have taken shelter. How can you say to me, “Flee to a mountain like a bird!

2For look, the wicked prepare their bows, they put their arrows on the strings, to shoot in the darkness at the morally upright.

3When the foundations are destroyed, what can the godly accomplish?”

Notes

  1. 1. Psalms 11:1 Psalm 11. The psalmist rejects the advice to flee from his dangerous enemies. Instead he affirms his confidence in God’s just character and calls down judgment on evildoers. ↩
