Psalms 94:1-23 LITV O Jehovah ( יהוה ), God of vengeance; O God of vengeance, shine forth! (2) Lift up Yourself, O Judge of the earth; give a just recompence on the proud. (3) Until when shall the wicked, O Jehovah ( יהוה ), until when shall the wicked exult? (4) They gush, they speak impudent things; all the workers of evil speak proudly. (5) O Jehovah ( יהוה ), they crush Your people and afflict Your inheritance. (6) They kill the widow and the stranger, and murder the orphan. (7) Yet they say, The Lord shall not see, nor shall the God of Jacob observe. (8) Understand you beastly ones among the people; yea, you fools, when will you be wise? (9) He who planted the ear, shall He not hear? He who formed the eye, shall He not see? (10) He who chastises the nations, shall He not punish, He who teaches man knowledge? (11) Jehovah ( יהוה ) knows the thoughts of man, that they are a mist. (12) Blessed is the man You chasten, O Jehovah ( יהוה ), You teach him out of Your Law; (13) to give him rest from troubled days, until the pit is dug for the wicked. (14) For Jehovah ( יהוה ) will not leave His people; nor will He forsake His inheritance. (15) For judgment shall turn to righteousness; and all the upright in heart shall follow after it. (16) Who will rise up for Me against the evildoers? Who will stand up for Me against the workers of evil? (17) Unless Jehovah ( יהוה ) had been my help, my soul would almost have dwelt in silence. (18) If I said, My foot slides, O Jehovah ( יהוה ), Your mercy has held me up. (19) In the multitude of my inward thoughts, Your comforts delight my soul. (20) Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with You, devising mischief for a statute? (21) They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the blood of the innocent. (22) But Jehovah ( יהוה ) is my tower of defense; and my God is the rock of my refuge. (23) And He shall turn their own iniquity upon them; and He shall cut them off in their evil, Jehovah ( יהוה ) our God shall exterminate them!
Psalms 94:1-23 GNB LORD ( יהוה ), you are a God who punishes; reveal your anger! (2) You are the judge of us all; rise and give the proud what they deserve! (3) How much longer will the wicked be glad? How much longer, LORD ( יהוה )? (4) How much longer will criminals be proud and boast about their crimes? (5) They crush your people, LORD ( יהוה ); they oppress those who belong to you. (6) They kill widows and orphans, and murder the strangers who live in our land. (7) They say, "The LORD ( יהוה ) does not see us; the God of Israel does not notice." (8) My people, how can you be such stupid fools? When will you ever learn? (9) God made our ears---can't he hear? He made our eyes---can't he see? (10) He scolds the nations---won't he punish them? He is the teacher of us all---hasn't he any knowledge? (11) The LORD ( יהוה ) knows what we think; he knows how senseless our reasoning is. (12) LORD ( יהוה ), how happy are those you instruct, the ones to whom you teach your law! (13) You give them rest from days of trouble until a pit is dug to trap the wicked. (14) The LORD ( יהוה ) will not abandon his people; he will not desert those who belong to him. (15) Justice will again be found in the courts, and all righteous people will support it. (16) Who stood up for me against the wicked? Who took my side against the evildoers? (17) If the LORD ( יהוה ) had not helped me, I would have gone quickly to the land of silence. (18) I said, "I am falling"; but your constant love, O LORD ( יהוה ), held me up. (19) Whenever I am anxious and worried, you comfort me and make me glad. (20) You have nothing to do with corrupt judges, who make injustice legal, (21) who plot against good people and sentence the innocent to death. (22) But the LORD ( יהוה ) defends me; my God protects me. (23) He will punish them for their wickedness and destroy them for their sins; the LORD ( יהוה ) our God will destroy them.
Psalms 94:1-23 ESV O LORD ( יהוה ), God of vengeance, O God of vengeance, shine forth! (2) Rise up, O judge of the earth; repay to the proud what they deserve! (3) O LORD ( יהוה ), how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked exult? (4) They pour out their arrogant words; all the evildoers boast. (5) They crush your people, O LORD ( יהוה ), and afflict your heritage. (6) They kill the widow and the sojourner, and murder the fatherless; (7) and they say, "The LORD ( יהוה ) does not see; the God of Jacob does not perceive." (8) Understand, O dullest of the people! Fools, when will you be wise? (9) He who planted the ear, does he not hear? He who formed the eye, does he not see? (10) He who disciplines the nations, does he not rebuke? He who teaches man knowledge-- (11) the LORD ( יהוה )--knows the thoughts of man, that they are but a breath. (12) Blessed is the man whom you discipline, O LORD ( יהוה ), and whom you teach out of your law, (13) to give him rest from days of trouble, until a pit is dug for the wicked. (14) For the LORD ( יהוה ) will not forsake his people; he will not abandon his heritage; (15) for justice will return to the righteous, and all the upright in heart will follow it. (16) Who rises up for me against the wicked? Who stands up for me against evildoers? (17) If the LORD ( יהוה ) had not been my help, my soul would soon have lived in the land of silence. (18) When I thought, "My foot slips," your steadfast love, O LORD ( יהוה ), held me up. (19) When the cares of my heart are many, your consolations cheer my soul. (20) Can wicked rulers be allied with you, those who frame injustice by statute? (21) They band together against the life of the righteous and condemn the innocent to death. (22) But the LORD ( יהוה ) has become my stronghold, and my God the rock of my refuge. (23) He will bring back on them their iniquity and wipe them out for their wickedness; the LORD ( יהוה ) our God will wipe them out.
