For, lo, the wicked bend their bow, They make ready their arrow upon the string, That they may privily shoot at the upright in heart.

The Lord trieth the righteous: But the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.
Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone, And an horrible tempest: this shall be the portion of their cup.
For the righteous Lord loveth righteousness; His countenance doth behold the upright.
14 Let the words of my mouth, And the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer.
