Psalms 11:4 (KJV)
The LORD is in his holy temple, the LORD’S throne is in heaven: his eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men.

The punctuation in this verse completely changes the meaning of the verse. It should not be read, “His eyes, (think carefully about this), His eyelids …” The verse gives us two separate actions:
His eyes beholdHe looks, perceives and contemplates upon the children of men.
His eyelids tryHe investigates, examines and proves them. The use of the term “eyelids” could be in reference to how men squint the eyelids when we want to examine a thing more closely.

- Aware of
- Up to date and
- Active in
the affairs of men on earth.
