The Lord never looks over you.


He observes everyone on earth, His eyes examine them.


4 ...  He observes everyone on earth; his eyes examine them. 

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?”
 4 The LORD is in his holy temple;
   the LORD is on his heavenly throne.
He observes everyone on earth;
   his eyes examine them.
5 The LORD examines the righteous,
   but the wicked, those who love violence,
   he hates with a passion.
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;
   the upright will see his face.
