Psalm 94
94:1 O Lord, the God who avenges!
O God who avenges, reveal your splendor.
94:2 Rise up, O judge of the earth.
Pay back the proud.
94:3 O Lord, how long will the wicked,
how long will the wicked celebrate?
94:4 They spew out threats and speak defiantly;
all the evildoers boast.
94:5 O Lord, they crush your people;
they oppress the nation that belongs to you.
94:6 They kill the widow and the resident foreigner,
and they murder the fatherless.
94:7 Then they say, “The Lord does not see this;
the God of Jacob does not take notice of it.”
94:8 Take notice of this, you ignorant people.
You fools, when will you ever understand?
94:9 Does the one who makes the human ear not hear?
Does the one who forms the human eye not see?
94:10 Does the one who disciplines the nations not punish?
He is the one who imparts knowledge to human beings!
94:11 The Lord knows that peoples’ thoughts
are morally bankrupt.
94:12 How blessed is the one whom you instruct, O Lord,
the one whom you teach from your law,
94:13 in order to protect him from times of trouble,
until the wicked are destroyed.
94:14 Certainly the Lord does not forsake his people;
he does not abandon the nation that belongs to him.
94:15 For justice will prevail,
and all the morally upright will be vindicated.
94:16 Who will rise up to defend me against the wicked?
Who will stand up for me against the evildoers?
94:17 If the Lord had not helped me,
I would soon have dwelt in the silence of death.
94:18 If I say, “My foot is slipping,”
your loyal love, O Lord, supports me.
94:19 When worries threaten to overwhelm me,
your soothing touch makes me happy.
94:20 Cruel rulers are not your allies,
those who make oppressive laws.
94:21 They conspire against the blameless,
and condemn to death the innocent.
94:22 But the Lord will protect me,
and my God will shelter me.
94:23 He will pay them back for their sin.
He will destroy them because of their evil;
the Lord our God will destroy them.
