求耶和华兴起报复选民之仇

94 耶和华啊,你是申冤的神。申冤的神啊,求你发出光来!
审判世界的主啊,求你挺身而立,使骄傲人受应得的报应!
耶和华啊,恶人夸胜要到几时呢?要到几时呢?
他们絮絮叨叨说傲慢的话,一切作孽的人都自己夸张。
耶和华啊,他们强压你的百姓,苦害你的产业。
他们杀死寡妇和寄居的,又杀害孤儿。
他们说:“耶和华必不看见,雅各的神必不思念。”
你们民间的畜类人当思想!你们愚顽人到几时才有智慧呢?
造耳朵的,难道自己不听见吗?造眼睛的,难道自己不看见吗?
10 管教列邦的,就是叫人得知识的,难道自己不惩治人吗?
11 耶和华知道人的意念是虚妄的。

为耶和华惩责训诲者其人有福

12 耶和华啊,你所管教,用律法所教训的人是有福的!

13 你使他在遭难的日子得享平安,唯有恶人陷在所挖的坑中。
14 因为耶和华必不丢弃他的百姓,也不离弃他的产业。
15 审判要转向公义,心里正直的必都随从。
16 谁肯为我起来攻击作恶的?谁肯为我站起抵挡作孽的?
17 若不是耶和华帮助我,我就住在寂静之中了。
18 我正说“我失了脚”,耶和华啊,那时你的慈爱扶助我。
19 我心里多忧多疑,你安慰我,就使我欢乐。
20 那借着律例架弄残害,在位上行奸恶的,岂能与你相交吗?
21 他们大家聚集攻击义人,将无辜的人定为死罪。
22 但耶和华向来做了我的高台,我的神做了我投靠的磐石。
23 他叫他们的罪孽归到他们身上,他们正在行恶之中,他要剪除他们——耶和华我们的神要把他们剪除!

94 O Lord God, to whom vengeance belongeth; O God, to whom vengeance belongeth, shew thyself.

Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth: render a reward to the proud.

Lord, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked triumph?

How long shall they utter and speak hard things? and all the workers of iniquity boast themselves?

They break in pieces thy people, O Lord, and afflict thine heritage.

They slay the widow and the stranger, and murder the fatherless.

Yet they say, The Lord shall not see, neither shall the God of Jacob regard it.

Understand, ye brutish among the people: and ye fools, when will ye be wise?

He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? he that formed the eye, shall he not see?

10 He that chastiseth the heathen, shall not he correct? he that teacheth man knowledge, shall not he know?

11 The Lord knoweth the thoughts of man, that they are vanity.

12 Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O Lord, and teachest him 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 the Lord will not cast off his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.

15 But judgment shall return unto righteousness: and all the upright in heart shall follow it.

16 Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? or who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?

17 Unless the Lord had been my help, my soul had almost dwelt in silence.

18 When I said, My foot slippeth; thy mercy, O Lord, held me up.

19 In the multitude of my thoughts within me thy comforts delight my soul.

20 Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with thee, which frameth mischief by a law?

21 They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood.

22 But the Lord is my defence; and my God is the rock of my refuge.

23 And he shall bring upon them their own iniquity, and shall cut them off in their own wickedness; yea, the Lord our God shall cut them off.

God the Refuge of the Righteous

94 O Lord God, (A)to whom vengeance belongs—
O God, to whom vengeance belongs, shine forth!
Rise up, O (B)Judge of the earth;
[a]Render punishment to the proud.
Lord, (C)how long will the wicked,
How long will the wicked triumph?

They (D)utter speech, and speak insolent things;
All the workers of iniquity boast in themselves.
They break in pieces Your people, O Lord,
And afflict Your heritage.
They slay the widow and the stranger,
And murder the fatherless.
(E)Yet they say, “The Lord does not see,
Nor does the God of Jacob [b]understand.”

Understand, you senseless among the people;
And you fools, when will you be wise?
(F)He who planted the ear, shall He not hear?
He who formed the eye, shall He not see?
10 He who [c]instructs the [d]nations, shall He not correct,
He who teaches man knowledge?
11 The Lord (G)knows the thoughts of man,
That they are futile.

12 Blessed is the man whom You (H)instruct, O Lord,
And teach out of Your law,
13 That You may give him [e]rest from the days of adversity,
Until the pit is dug for the wicked.
14 For the Lord will not [f]cast off His people,
Nor will He forsake His inheritance.
15 But judgment will return to righteousness,
And all the upright in heart will follow it.

16 Who will rise up for me against the evildoers?
Who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?
17 Unless the Lord had been my help,
My soul would soon have settled in silence.
18 If I say, “My foot slips,”
Your mercy, O Lord, will hold me up.
19 In the multitude of my anxieties within me,
Your comforts delight my soul.

20 Shall (I)the throne of iniquity, which devises evil by law,
Have fellowship with You?
21 They gather together against the life of the righteous,
And condemn (J)innocent blood.
22 But the Lord has been my defense,
And my God the rock of my refuge.
23 He has brought on them their own iniquity,
And shall [g]cut them off in their own wickedness;
The Lord our God shall cut them off.
