The Lord is in his holy temple;(A)
the Lord—his throne is in heaven.(B)
His eyes watch;
his gaze[a] examines everyone.[b]
The Lord examines the righteous,
but he hates the wicked
and[c] those who love violence.(C)
Let him rain burning coals[d] and sulfur on the wicked;
let a scorching wind be the portion in their cup.(D)
