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.
