Today's bible teaching: On the wicked he will rain fiery coals and burning sulfur; a scorching wind will be their lot.

 Psalm 11

1
Psalm 11 For the director of music. Of David.
1
In the LORD I take refuge. How then can you say to me: "Flee like a bird to your mountain.
2
For look, the wicked bend their bows; they set their arrows against the strings to shoot from the shadows at the upright in heart.
3
When the foundations are being destroyed, what can the righteous do [1] ?"
4
The LORD is in his holy temple; the LORD is on his heavenly throne. He observes the sons of men; his eyes examine them.
5
The LORD examines the righteous, but the wicked [2] and those who love violence his soul hates.
6
On the wicked he will rain fiery coals and burning sulfur; a scorching wind will be their lot.
7
For the LORD is righteous, he loves justice; upright men will see his face.

    My eyes grow weak with sorrow; they fail because of all my foes.
    8
    Away from me, all you who do evil, for the LORD has heard my weeping.
    9
    The LORD has heard my cry for mercy; the LORD accepts my prayer.

      Be merciful to me, O God, for men hotly pursue me; all day long they press their attack.

      My slanderers pursue me all day long; many are attacking me in their pride.
      3
      When I am afraid, I will trust in you.
      4
      In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I will not be afraid. What can mortal man do to me?
      5
      All day long they twist my words; they are always plotting to harm me.
      6
      They conspire, they lurk, they watch my steps, eager to take my life.
      7
      On no account let them escape; in your anger, O God, bring down the nations.
      8
      Record my lament; list my tears on your scroll [2] -- are they not in your record?
      9
      Then my enemies will turn back when I call for help. By this I will know that God is for me.
      10
      In God, whose word I praise, in the LORD, whose word I praise--
      11
      in God I trust; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?
      12
      I am under vows to you, O God; I will present my thank offerings to you.
      13
      For you have delivered me [3] from death and my feet from stumbling, that I may walk before God in the light of life. [4]
