Psalms - Chapter 94

1: The Lord is the God to whom revenge belongeth: the God of revenge hath acted freely.
2: Lift up thyself, thou that judgest the earth: render a reward to the proud.
3: How long shall sinners, O Lord: how long shall sinners glory?
4: Shall they utter, and speak iniquity: shall all speak who work injustice?
5: Thy people, O Lord, they have brought low: and they have afflicted thy inheritance.
6: They have slain the widow and the stranger: and they have murdered the fatherless.
7: And they have said: The Lord shall not see: neither shall the God of Jacob understand.
8: Understand, ye senseless among the people: and, you fools, be wise at last.
9: He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? or he that formed the eye, doth he not consider?
10: He that chastiseth nations, shall he not rebuke: he that teacheth man knowledge?
11: The Lord knoweth the thoughts of men, that they are vain.
12: Blessed is the man whom thou shalt instruct, O Lord: and shalt teach him out of thy law.
13: That thou mayst give him rest from the evil days: till a pit be dug for the wicked.
14: For the Lord will not cast off his people: neither will he forsake his own inheritance.
15: Until justice be turned into judgment: and they that are near it are all the upright in heart.
16: Who shall rise up for me against the evildoers? or who shall stand with me against the workers of iniquity?
17: Unless the Lord had been my helper, my soul had almost dwelt in hell.
18: If I said: My foot is moved: thy mercy, O Lord, assisted me.
19: According to the multitude of my sorrows in my heart, thy comforts have given joy to my soul.
20: Doth the seat of iniquity stick to thee, who framest labour in commandment?
21: They will hunt after the soul of the just, and will condemn innocent blood.
22: But the Lord is my refuge: and my God the help of my hope.
23: And he will render them their iniquity: and in their malice he will destroy them: the Lord our God will destroy them.
