- Kapitel 94 -

The Lord will not forget his people

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.

The Lord will not forget his people

1
LORD, you God to whom vengeance belongs, you God to whom vengeance belongs, shine out.
2
Rise up, you judge of the earth. Pay back the proud what they deserve.
3
LORD, how long will the wicked, how long will the wicked triumph?
4
They pour out arrogant words. All the evildoers boast.
5
They break your people in pieces, LORD, and afflict your heritage.
6
They kill the widow and the alien, and murder the fatherless.
7
They say, “The LORD will not see, neither will Jacob’s God consider.”
8
Consider, you senseless among the people; you fools, when will you be wise?
9
He who implanted the ear, won’t he hear? He who formed the eye, won’t he see?
10
He who disciplines the nations, won’t he punish? He who teaches man knows.
11
The LORD knows the thoughts of man, that they are futile.
12
Blessed is the man whom you discipline, LORD, and teach out of your law,
13
that you may give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit is dug for the wicked.
14
For the LORD won’t reject his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.
15
For judgment will return to righteousness. All the upright in heart shall follow it.
16
Who will rise up for me against the wicked? Who will stand up for me against the evildoers?
17
Unless the LORD had been my help, my soul would have soon lived in silence.
18
When I said, “My foot is slipping!” Your loving kindness, LORD, held me up.
19
In the multitude of my thoughts within me, your comforts delight my soul.
20
Shall the throne of wickedness have fellowship with you, which brings about mischief by statute?
21
They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood.
22
But the LORD has been my high tower, my God, the rock of my refuge.
23
He has brought on them their own iniquity, and will cut them off in their own wickedness. The LORD, our God, will cut them off.
