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.

7 The LORD is just and loves just deeds; the upright 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.
