Psalm 94
[94:1] Yahweh, you God to whom vengeance belongs, you God to whom vengeance belongs, shine forth. [94:2] Rise up, you judge of the earth. Pay back the proud what they deserve. [94:3] Yahweh, how long will the wicked, how long will the wicked triumph? [94:4] They pour out arrogant words. All the evil-doers boast. [94:5] They break your people in pieces, Yahweh, and afflict your heritage. [94:6] They kill the widow and the alien, and murder the fatherless. [94:7] They say, "Yah will not see, neither will Jacob's God consider." [94:8] Consider, you senseless among the people; you fools, when will you be wise? [94:9] He who implanted the ear, won't he hear? He who formed the eye, won't he see? [94:10] He who disciplines the nations, won't he punish? He who teaches man knows. [94:11] Yahweh knows the thoughts of man, that they are futile. [94:12] Blessed is the man whom you discipline, Yah, and teach out of your law; [94:13] that you may give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit is dug for the wicked. [94:14] For Yahweh won't reject his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance. [94:15] For judgment will return to righteousness. All the upright in heart shall follow it. [94:16] Who will rise up for me against the wicked? Who will stand up for me against the evil-doers? [94:17] Unless Yahweh had been my help, my soul would have soon lived in silence. [94:18] When I said, "My foot is slipping!" Your loving kindness, Yahweh, held me up. [94:19] In the multitude of my thoughts within me, your comforts delight my soul. [94:20] Shall the throne of wickedness have fellowship with you, which brings about mischief by statute? [94:21] They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood. [94:22] But Yahweh has been my high tower, my God, the rock of my refuge. [94:23] He has brought on them their own iniquity, and will cut them off in their own wickedness. Yahweh, our God, will cut them off.
