4 The Lord is in his holy temple; 11:4 Ps 27:4; Hab 2:20
the Lord — his throne is in heaven. 11:4 Ps 103:19; Is 66:1; Ac 7:49
His eyes watch;
his gaze 11:4 Lit eyelids examines everyone. 11:4 Or examines the descendants of Adam
5 The Lord examines the righteous,
but he hates the wicked
and 11:5 Or righteous and the wicked, and he hates those who love violence. 11:4–5 Ps 33:13–15
6 Let him rain burning coals 11:6 Sym; MT reads rain snares, fire and sulfur on the wicked;
let a scorching wind be the portion in their cup. 11:6 Ezk 38:22
7 For the Lord is righteous; he loves righteous deeds.
The upright will see his face. 11:7 Ps 17:15; Rv 22:4
