94O LORD God, You to Whom vengeance belongs, O God, You to Whom vengeance belongs, shine forth!H3068H410H5360H410H5360H33132Rise up, O Judge of the earth; render to the proud a fit compensation!H5375H8199H776H7725H1576H13433Lord, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked triumph {and} exult?H3068H7563H7563H59374They pour out arrogant words, speaking hard things; all the evildoers boast loftily.H5042H1696H6277H6466H205H5595They crush Your people, O Lord, and afflict Your heritage.H1792H5971H3068H6031H51596They slay the widow and the transient stranger and murder the unprotected orphan.H2026H490H1616H7523H34907Yet they say, The Lord does not see, neither does the God of Jacob notice it.H559H3050H7200H430H3290H9958Consider {and} understand, you stupid ones among the people! And you [self-confident] fools, when will you become wise?H995H1197H5971H3684H79199He Who planted the ear, shall He not hear? He Who formed the eye, shall He not see?H5193H241H8085H3335H5869H502710He Who disciplines {and} instructs the nations, shall He not punish, He Who teaches man knowledge?H3256H1471H3198H3925H120H184711The Lord knows the thoughts of man, that they are vain (empty and futile--only a breath).H3068H3045H4284H120H189212Blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) is the man whom You discipline {and} instruct, O Lord, and teach out of Your law,H835H1397H3256H3050H3925H845113That You may give him power to keep himself calm in the days of adversity, until the [inevitable] pit of corruption is dug for the wicked.H8252H3117H7451H7845H3738H756314For the Lord will not cast off {nor} spurn His people, neither will He abandon His heritage.H3068H5203H5971H5800H515915For justice will return to the [uncompromisingly] righteous, and all the upright in heart will follow it.H4941H7725H6664H3477H3820H31016Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? Who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?H6965H7489H3320H6466H20517Unless the Lord had been my help, I would soon have dwelt in [the land where there is] silence.H3884H3068H5833H5315H4592H7931H174518When I said, My foot is slipping, Your mercy {and} loving-kindness, O Lord, held me up.H559H7272H4131H2617H3068H558219In the multitude of my [anxious] thoughts within me, Your comforts cheer {and} delight my soul!H7230H8312H7130H8575H8173H531520Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with You--they who frame {and} hide their unrighteous doings under [the sacred name of] law?H3678H1942H2266H3335H5999H270621They band themselves together against the life of the [consistently] righteous and condemn the innocent to death.H1413H5315H6662H7561H5355H181822But the Lord has become my High Tower {and} Defense, and my God the Rock of my refuge.H3068H4869H430H6697H426823And He will turn back upon them their own iniquity and will wipe them out by means of their own wickedness; the Lord our God will wipe them out.H7725H205H6789H7451H3068H430H6789
