The Lord is in His holy temple,
The Lord’s (A)throne is in heaven;
(B)His eyes behold,
His eyelids test the sons of men.
The Lord (C)tests the righteous,
But the wicked and the one who loves violence His soul hates.
Upon the wicked He will rain coals;
Fire and brimstone and a burning wind
(D)Shall be [a]the portion of their cup.

For the Lord is righteous,
He (E)loves righteousness;
[b]His countenance beholds the upright.
