psalms 11:1 In the LORD put I my trust: how say ye to my soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain? - Free Bible Online

psalms 11:1 [For the choir director. A Psalm of David]. In the LORD I take refuge; How can you say to my soul, "Flee [as] a bird to your mountain;


      Ps 11:1-7. On title, see Introduction. Alluding to some event in his history, as in 1Sa 23:13, the Psalmist avows his confidence in God, when admonished to flee from his raging persecutors, whose destruction of the usual foundations of safety rendered all his efforts useless. The grounds of his confidence are God's supreme dominion, His watchful care of His people, His hatred to the wicked and judgments on them, and His love for righteousness and the righteous.

      1. my soul--me (Ps 3:2).
      Flee--literally, "flee ye"; that is, he and his companion.
      as a bird to your mountain--having as such no safety but in flight (compare 1Sa 26:20; La 3:52).
