Psalms 11:5 in Context — Psalms 11

3 Se os fundamentos são destruídos, o que o justo pode fazer?

4 O SENHOR está em seu santo Templo, o trono do SENHOR está nos céus; seus olhos observam com atenção; suas pálpebras provam aos filhos dos homens.

5 O SENHOR prova ao justo; mas sua alma odeia ao perverso e ao que ama a violência.

6 Sobre os perversos choverá laços, fogo e enxofre; e o pagamento para seu cálice será vento tempestuoso.

7 Porque o SENHOR [é] justo, [e] ama as justiças; seu rosto presta atenção ao [que é] correto.
