4
The Lord is in His (A)holy temple; the (a)Lord’s (B)throne is in heaven;
His (C)eyes behold, His eyelids test the sons of men.
5
The Lord (D)tests the righteous and (E)the wicked,
And the one who loves violence His soul hates.
6
Upon the wicked He will (F)rain (b)snares;
(G)Fire and brimstone and (H)burning wind will be the portion of (I)their cup.
7
For the Lord is (J)righteous, (K)He loves (c)righteousness;
The upright will (L)behold His face.
