Psalm 94

1. 1

   O LORD God of vengeance, *
   O God of vengeance, show yourself.

2. 2

   Rise up, O Judge of the world; *
   give the arrogant their just deserts.

3. 3

   How long shall the wicked, O LORD, *
   how long shall the wicked triumph?

4. 4

   They bluster in their insolence; *
   all evildoers are full of boasting.

5. 5

   They crush your people, O LORD, *
   and afflict your chosen nation.

6. 6

   They murder the widow and the stranger *
   and put the orphans to death.

7. 7

   Yet they say, "The LORD does not see, *
   the God of Jacob takes no notice."

8. 8

   Consider well, you dullards among the people; *
   when will you fools understand?

9. 9

   He that planted the ear, does he not hear? *
   he that formed the eye, does he not see?

10. 10

    He who admonishes the nations, will he not punish? *
    he who teaches all the world, has he no knowledge?

11. 11

    The LORD knows our human thoughts; *
    how like a puff of wind they are.

12. 12

    Happy are they whom you instruct, O Lord! *
    whom you teach out of your law;

13. 13

    To give them rest in evil days, *
    until a pit is dug for the wicked.

14. 14

    For the LORD will not abandon his people, *
    nor will he forsake his own.

15. 15

    For judgment will again be just, *
    and all the true of heart will follow it.

16. 16

    Who rose up for me against the wicked? *
    who took my part against the evildoers?

17. 17

    If the LORD had not come to my help, *
    I should soon have dwelt in the land of silence.

18. 18

    As often as I said, "My foot has slipped," *
    your love, O LORD, upheld me.

19. 19

    When many cares fill my mind, *
    your consolations cheer my soul.

20. 20

    Can a corrupt tribunal have any part with you, *
    one which frames evil into law?

21. 21

    They conspire against the life of the just *
    and condemn the innocent to death.

22. 22

    But the LORD has become my stronghold, *
    and my God the rock of my trust.

23. 23

    He will turn their wickedness back upon them and destroy them in their own malice; *
    the LORD our God will destroy them.
