Psalm 94

94:1 God of vengeance--Jehovah! God of vengeance, shine forth. 94:2 Be lifted up, O Judge of the earth, Send back a recompence on the proud. 94:3 Till when [do] the wicked, O Jehovah Till when do the wicked exult 94:4 They utter--they speak an old saw, All working iniquity do boast themselves. 94:5 Thy people, O Jehovah, they bruise, And Thine inheritance they afflict. 94:6 Widow and sojourner they slay, And fatherless ones they murder. 94:7 And they say, `Jehovah doth not see, And the God of Jacob doth not consider.' 94:8 Consider, ye brutish among the people, And ye foolish, when do ye act wisely 94:9 He who planteth the ear doth He not hear He who formeth the eye doth He not see 94:10 He who is instructing nations, Doth He not reprove He who is teaching man knowledge [is] Jehovah. 94:11 He knoweth the thoughts of man, that they [are] vanity.  94:12 O the happiness of the man Whom Thou instructest, O Jah, And out of Thy law teachest him, 94:13 To give rest to him from days of evil, While a pit is digged for the wicked. 94:14 For Jehovah leaveth not His people, And His inheritance forsaketh not. 94:15 For to righteousness judgment turneth back, And after it all the upright of heart, 94:16 Who riseth up for me with evil doers Who stationeth himself for me with workers of iniquity 94:17 Unless Jehovah [were] a help to me, My soul had almost inhabited silence. 94:18 If I have said, `My foot hath slipped,' Thy kindness, O Jehovah, supporteth me. 94:19 In the abundance of my thoughts within me, Thy comforts delight my soul. 94:20 Is a throne of mischief joined [with] Thee A framer of perverseness by statute 94:21 They decree against the soul of the righteous, And innocent blood declare wicked. 94:22 And Jehovah is for a high place to me, And my God [is] for a rock--my refuge, 94:23 And turneth back on them their iniquity, And in their wickedness cutteth them off; Jehovah our God doth cut them off!
