2 The wicked bend their bow, Their arrows they prepare, That in the dark they may them shoot At those that upright are.
3 If by their violence Foundations be destroyed, What can the grieved righteous do The ruins to avoid?
3 If by their violence Foundations be destroy'd, What can the grieved righteous do The ruins to avoid?
4 God in his Temple is; The Lord's Throne is in Heaven; His eyes behold, his eye-lids try The sons of mortal men.
5 The Lord the just man tries, But he the wicked hates; And him that loveth violence His soul abominates.
