| Locate verse: Type a verse reference like 'Romans 10:9' or abbreviated 'Rm 10:9'. By just typing the verse one can jump to the corresponding verse on the active page (only works if the current page displays a chapter). If a chapter and a verse is entered without a book, the current selected book is assumed. Providing only the name of a book will bring one to the chapter index of that book. Examples (without the quotes): '1 Tim 3:16', 'Rv 1:8', 'Matthew 5', '3:16', '8', 'Phm'. |
PSALMS (1-24, 26)
[A hymn of David]
PS11:1 I seek refuge in Yehowah. How can you tell me, “Flee like a little bird into the mountains.”
PS11:2 For look, the lawless string the bow. They slot their arrow on the bowstring. They shoot in darkness at those upright in heart.
PS11:3 When foundations72
are torn down, what will the law-abiding person do?
PS11:4 Yehowah is in His holy sanctuary. As for Yehowah His throne is in the Celestialum. His eyes observe. His gaze examines73
the sons of Adam.74
72 Foundations: Or, MOF: the pillars of the State are falling: what can a just man do; TAY: law and order have collapsed. 73 His gaze examines: Or, eyelids; surveys, searching glance, closely watch.
PS11:5 Yehowah examines the law-abiding and the lawless. But the lawless person and the lover of violence His soul hates.
PS11:6 He will rain upon the lawless burning coals. Fire and sulphur in a burning wind is their lot.
PS11:7 For Yehowah is just and He loves law-abiding conduct. The upright will behold His face.
74 Sons of Adam: The Hebrew is `A-DHAM’.
