4 The Lord is in his holy temple; ♦︎
the Lord’s throne is in heaven.
5 His eyes behold, ♦︎
his eyelids try every mortal being.
6 The Lord tries the righteous as well as the wicked, ♦︎
but those who delight in violence his soul abhors.
7 Upon the wicked he shall rain coals of fire
and burning sulphur; ♦︎
scorching wind shall be their portion to drink.
8 For the Lord is righteous;
he loves righteous deeds, ♦︎
and those who are upright shall behold his face.
