Psalm 11:3-5

International Children’s Bible

³When all that is good falls apart,
what can good people do?”

⁴The Lord is in his holy temple.
    The Lord sits on his throne in heaven.
And he sees what people do.
    He keeps his eye on them.
⁵The Lord tests those who do right.
    But he hates the wicked and those who love to hurt others.
