PSALM 94

The LORD Recompenses Evil

A psalm to  David; fourth of Sabbath.

1The God of acts of vengeance. The lord    God of acts of vengeance spoke openly. 2Rise up high, O one judging the earth! Render recompense to the proud! 3For how long sinners, O lord, how long shall sinners boast? 4They will utter and speak injustice; [5shall speak 1all 2the ones 3practicing   4iniquity]. 5  Your people, O lord, they humbled; and   [2your inheritance 1they inflicted evil on]. 6The widow and orphan they killed; and the foreigner they murdered. 7And they said, [2shall not 3see 1the lord], nor shall [4perceive 1the 2God   3of Jacob]. 8Perceive indeed foolish among the people! and O moron, [2at some time or other 1think]! 9The one planting the ear, does he not hear? or the one shaping the eye, does he not contemplate? 10The one correcting nations, shall he not reprove? The one teaching man knowledge; 11the lord, he knows the thoughts   of men, for they are vain. 12Blessed is  a man whom ever you should correct, O lord, and from out of   your law you should teach him; 13  to calm him from [2days 1evil], until of which time  he should have dug [2for the 3sinner 1the pit]. 14For [2shall not 3thrust away 1the lord]   his people, and   [3his inheritance 1he shall not 2abandon]; 15until of which time  righteousness returns for judgment, and having it are all the straight   in heart. PAUSE. 16Who shall rise up to me against the ones acting wickedly? or who shall stand up with me against the ones working   lawlessness? 17Unless that the lord  helped me, [2would 3shortly 4have sojourned   5in Hades   1my soul]. 18If I said, [2shakes   1My foot];   your mercy, O lord, helps me. 19According to the multitude   of my griefs in   my heart, so  your comforts made glad   my soul. 20Shall [3adhere with 4you 1the throne 2of lawlessness], the one shaping trouble out of order? 21They shall hunt for [2soul 1a just], and [3blood 2innocent 1condemn]. 22But [2became 3to me 1the lord] for a refuge; and   my God for a helper of my hope. 23And he shall recompense to them   their lawlessness; and according to   their wickedness [3shall remove them from view 1The lord    2God].
