Psalms 11:1-7 Good News Bible Catholic Edition (GNBDK)

1. I trust in the Lord for safety.How foolish of you to say to me,“Fly away like a bird to the mountains,

2. because the wicked have drawn their bows and aimed their arrowsto shoot from the shadows at good people.

3. There is nothing a good person can dowhen everything falls apart.”

4. The Lord is in his holy temple;he has his throne in heaven.He watches people everywhereand knows what they are doing.

5. He examines the good and the wicked alike;the lawless he hates with all his heart.

6. He sends down flaming coals and burning sulphur on the wicked;he punishes them with scorching winds.

7. The Lord is righteous and loves good deeds;those who do them will live in his presence.
