PSALM 11

Faith in the LORD’s Righteousness

To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. 

    1      In the LORD I put my trust; How can you say to my soul, 
          “Flee as a bird to your mountain”? 
    2      For look! The wicked bend their bow, 
          They make ready their arrow on the string, 
          That they may shoot secretly at the upright in heart. 
    3      If the foundations are destroyed, 
          What can the righteous do? 

    4      The LORD is in His holy temple, 
          The LORD’s throne is in heaven; 
          His eyes behold, 
          His eyelids test the sons of men. 
    5      The LORD tests the righteous, 
          But the wicked and the one who loves violence His soul hates. 
    6      Upon the wicked He will rain coals; 
          Fire and brimstone and a burning wind 
          Shall be the portion of their cup. 

    7      For the LORD is righteous, 
          He loves righteousness; 
          His countenance beholds the upright. 



The New King James Version (Nashville: Thomas Nelson, 1982). Ps 11.

A Threshing Floor

A Threshing Floor In the ancient world, farmers used threshing floors to separate grain from its inedible husk (chaff) by beating it with a flail or walking animals on it—sometimes while towing a threshing sledge. Sledges were fitted with flint teeth to dehusk the grain more quickly. Other workers would turn the grain over so that it would be evenly threshed by the sledge.
