The LORD is in his holy temple; the LORD’s throne is in heaven; his eyes see, his eyelids test the children of man. The LORD is in his holy temple; the LORD is on his heavenly throne. He observes everyone on earth; his eyes examine them.

6 May He rain down coals upon the wicked, fire and brimstone; and a burning wind is the portion of their cup. Let him rain coals on the wicked; fire and sulfur and a scorching wind shall be the portion of their cup.

7 For YHWH is righteous; He loves righteousness; the upright one will see His face. For the LORD is righteous; he loves righteous deeds; the upright shall behold his face. For the LORD is righteous, he loves justice; the upright will see his face.
