for behold, the wicked (A)bend the bow;
    (B)they have fitted their arrow to the string
    to shoot in the dark at the upright in heart;
if (C)the foundations are destroyed,
    what can the righteous do?”[a]

(D)The Lord is in his holy temple;
    the Lord's (E)throne is in heaven;
    his eyes see, his eyelids (F)test the children of man.
