4  For you are ^lnot a God who delights in wickedness;

evil may not dwell with you.

5  The boastful shall not stand before your eyes;

you hate all evildoers.

6  You destroy those who speak lies;

the Lord abhors the bloodthirsty and deceitful man.

4  ^lThe Lord is in his holy temple;

the Lord’s throne is in heaven;

his eyes see, his eyelids test the children of man.

5  The Lord tests the righteous,

but his soul ^mhates the wicked and the one who loves violence.

6  ⁿLet him rain coals on the wicked;

fire and sulfur and a scorching wind shall be the portion of their ^ocup.

7  For the Lord is righteous;

he loves righteous deeds;

^pthe upright shall ^qbehold his face.
