Psalms 11

David trusts in YHWH as his refuge amid the wicked who seek to destroy the righteous, rejecting advice to flee like a bird to the mountains. He affirms that YHWH tests the righteous and the wicked, and will rain coals, fire, and brimstone upon the unjust while upholding the upright in His countenance.[1][3]
