Psalm 11:3-5

Expanded Bible

³When the foundations [^Ca stable society] collapse,
what can ·good [righteous] people do?”

⁴The Lord is in his holy Temple;
    the Lord sits on his throne in heaven.
·He sees what people do [^LHis eyes watch];
    ·he keeps his eye on them [^Lhis gaze examines/tests people].
⁵The Lord ·tests [examines] ·those who do right and those who do wrong [the righteous and the wicked],
    but he hates those who love ·to hurt others [violence].
