Psalm 11:1-3
American Standard Version
Jehovah a refuge and defence.
For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.
11 In Jehovah do I take refuge:
How say ye to my soul,
Flee [a]as a bird to your mountain;
2 For, lo, the wicked bend the bow,
They make ready their arrow upon the string,
That they may shoot in darkness at the upright in heart;
3 [b]If the foundations be destroyed,
What can the righteous do?
