Trust in the Lord

For the director of music. Of David.

11 I ·trust in the Lord for protection [find refuge in the Lord].
    So why do you say to me,
    “·Fly [L Flee] like a bird to your mountain.
For, look, the wicked ·string [bend] their bows;
    they set their arrows on the bowstrings.
They shoot from dark places
    at those who are ·honest [L upright/virtuous in heart].
When the foundations [C a stable society] collapse,
    what can ·good [righteous] people do?”

Psalm 11

For the director of music. Of David.

In the Lord I take refuge.(A)
    How then can you say to me:
    “Flee(B) like a bird to your mountain.(C)
For look, the wicked bend their bows;(D)
    they set their arrows(E) against the strings
to shoot from the shadows(F)
    at the upright in heart.(G)
When the foundations(H) are being destroyed,
    what can the righteous do?”
