94-1: |
O Lord God, to whom vengeance belongeth; O God, to whom vengeance belongeth, shew thyself. |
94-2: |
Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth: render a reward to the proud. |
94-3: |
LORD, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked triumph? |
94-4: |
How long shall they utter and speak hard things? and all the workers of iniquity boast themselves? |
94-5: |
They break in pieces thy people, O LORD, and afflict thine heritage. |
94-6: |
They slay the widow and the stranger, and murder the fatherless. |
94-7: |
Yet they say, The LORD shall not see, neither shall the God of Jacob regard it. |
94-8: |
Understand, ye brutish among the people: and ye fools, when will ye be wise? |
94-9: |
He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? he that formed the eye, shall he not see? |
94-10: |
He that chastiseth the heathen, shall not he correct? he that teacheth man knowledge, shall not he know? |
94-11: |
The LORD knoweth the thoughts of man, that they are vanity. |
94-12: |
Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O LORD, and teachest him out of thy law; |
94-13: |
That thou mayest give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit be digged for the wicked. |
94-14: |
For the LORD will not cast off his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance. |
94-15: |
But judgment shall return unto righteousness: and all the upright in heart shall follow it. |
94-16: |
Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? or who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity? |
94-17: |
Unless the LORD had been my help, my soul had almost dwelt in silence. |
94-18: |
When I said, My foot slippeth; thy mercy, O LORD, held me up. |
94-19: |
In the multitude of my thoughts within me thy comforts delight my soul. |
94-20: |
Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with thee, which frameth mischief by a law? |
94-21: |
They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood. |
94-22: |
But the LORD is my defence; and my God is the rock of my refuge. |
94-23: |
And he shall bring upon them their own iniquity, and shall cut them off in their own wickedness; yea, the LORD our God shall cut them off. |
