Psalms.

Chapter 94.
|
||
LORD, you God to whom vengeance belongs, you God to whom vengeance belongs, shine out.
|
||
Rise up, you judge of the earth. Pay back the proud what they deserve.
|
||
LORD, how long will the wicked, how long will the wicked triumph?
|
||
They pour out arrogant words. All the evildoers boast.
|
||
They break your people in pieces, LORD, and afflict your heritage.
|
||
They kill the widow and the alien, and murder the fatherless.
|
||
They say, “The LORD will not see, neither will Jacob’s God consider.”
|
||
Consider, you senseless among the people; you fools, when will you be wise?
|
||
He who implanted the ear, won’t he hear? He who formed the eye, won’t he see?
|
||
He who disciplines the nations, won’t he punish? He who teaches man knows.
|
||
The LORD knows the thoughts of man, that they are futile.
|
||
Blessed is the man whom you discipline, LORD, and teach out of your law,
|
||
that you may give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit is dug for the wicked.
|
||
For the LORD won’t reject his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.
|
||
For judgment will return to righteousness. All the upright in heart shall follow it.
|
||
Who will rise up for me against the wicked? Who will stand up for me against the evildoers?
|
||
Unless the LORD had been my help, my soul would have soon lived in silence.
|
||
When I said, “My foot is slipping!” Your loving kindness, LORD, held me up.
|
||
In the multitude of my thoughts within me, your comforts delight my soul.
|
||
Shall the throne of wickedness have fellowship with you, which brings about mischief by statute?
|
||
They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood.
|
||
But the LORD has been my high tower, my God, the rock of my refuge.
|
||
He has brought on them their own iniquity, and will cut them off in their own wickedness. The LORD, our God, will cut them off.
