| Psalms 94: (ASV) |
| 1) O Jehovah, thou God to whom vengeance belongeth, Thou God to whom vengeance belongeth, shine forth. |
| 2) Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth: Render to the proud their desert. |
| 3) Jehovah, how long shall the wicked, How long shall the wicked triumph? |
| 4) They prate, they speak arrogantly: All the workers of iniquity boast themselves. |
| 5) They break in pieces thy people, O Jehovah, And afflict thy heritage. |
| 6) They slay the widow and the sojourner, And murder the fatherless. |
| 7) And they say, Jehovah will not see, Neither will the God of Jacob consider. |
| 8) Consider, ye brutish among the people; And ye fools, when will ye be wise? |
| 9) He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? He that formed the eye, shall he not see? |
| 10) He that chastiseth the nations, shall not he correct, Even he that teacheth man knowledge? |
| 11) Jehovah knoweth the thoughts of man, That they are vanity. |
| 12) Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O Jehovah, And teachest out of thy law; |
| 13) That thou mayest give him rest from the days of adversity, Until the pit be digged for the wicked. |
| 14) For Jehovah will not cast off his people, Neither will he forsake his inheritance. |
| 15) For judgment shall return unto righteousness; And all the upright in heart shall follow it. |
| 16) Who will rise up for me against the evil-doers? Who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity? |
| 17) Unless Jehovah had been my help, My soul had soon dwelt in silence. |
| 18) When I said, My foot slippeth; Thy lovingkindness, O Jehovah, held me up. |
| 19) In the multitude of my thoughts within me Thy comforts delight my soul. |
| 20) Shall the throne of wickedness have fellowship with thee, Which frameth mischief by statute? |
| 21) They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, And condemn the innocent blood. |
| 22) But Jehovah hath been my high tower, And my God the rock of my refuge. |
| 23) And he hath brought upon them their own iniquity, And will cut them off in their own wickedness; Jehovah our God will cut them off. |
