Authorized (King James) Version
Psalm 94
1 O Lord God, to whom vengeance belongeth;
O God, to whom vengeance belongeth, shew thyself.
2 Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth:
render a reward to the proud.
3 Lord, how long shall the wicked,
how long shall the wicked triumph?
4 How long shall they utter and speak hard things?
and all the workers of iniquity boast themselves?
5 They break in pieces thy people, O Lord,
and afflict thine heritage.
6 They slay the widow and the stranger,
and murder the fatherless.
7 Yet they say, The Lord shall not see,
neither shall the God of Jacob regard it.
8 Understand, 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 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.

New King James Version
God the Refuge of the Righteous
94 O Lord God, (A)to whom vengeance belongs—
O God, to whom vengeance belongs, shine forth!
2 Rise up, O (B)Judge of the earth;
[a]Render punishment to the proud.
3 Lord, (C)how long will the wicked,
How long will the wicked triumph?
4 They (D)utter speech, and speak insolent things;
All the workers of iniquity boast in themselves.
5 They break in pieces Your people, O Lord,
And afflict Your heritage.
6 They slay the widow and the stranger,
And murder the fatherless.
7 (E)Yet they say, “The Lord does not see,
Nor does the God of Jacob [b]understand.”
8 Understand, you senseless among the people;
And you fools, when will you be wise?
9 (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.

Psalm 94
1 O Lord God, to whom vengeance belongs;
O God to whom vengeance belongs, shine forth.
2 Rise up, O Judge of the earth;
render to the proud what they deserve.
3 O Lord, how long shall the wicked,
how long shall the wicked triumph?
4 They spew forth their arrogant words;
all those who do iniquity boast.
5 They break in pieces Your people, O Lord,
and afflict Your inheritance.
6 They kill the widow and the sojourner,
and murder the fatherless.
7 Yet they say, “The Lord does not see,
neither does the God of Jacob regard it.”
8 Understand, you brutish among the people;
fools, when will you be wise?
9 He who made the ear, shall He not hear?
He who formed the eye, shall He not see?
10 He who chastises the nations, shall He not correct?
He teaches people knowledge!
11 The Lord, He knows the thoughts of people,
that they are a breath.
12 Blessed is the man whom You chasten, O Lord,
and teach from Your law,
13 that You may give him rest from the days of adversity,
until a pit is dug for the wicked.
14 For the Lord will not forsake His people;
neither will He abandon His inheritance.
15 But justice shall return to those who are righteous,
and all the upright in heart shall follow it.
16 Who will rise up for me against the wicked?
Who will stand up for me against those who do iniquity?
17 Unless the Lord had been my help,
my soul would have lived in the land of silent death.
18 When I said, “My foot slips,”
Your mercy, O Lord, held me up.
19 When there is a multitude of worries within me,
Your comforts delight my soul.
20 Shall wicked rulers, who make oppressive laws,
align with You?
21 They conspire together against the life of the righteous
and condemn innocent blood to death.
22 But the Lord is my defense,
and my God is the rock of my refuge.
23 He shall bring upon them their own iniquity
and shall cut them off for their own wickedness;
yes, the Lord our God shall destroy them.

Oración clamando por venganza
94 Jehová, Dios de las venganzas,
Dios de las venganzas, muéstrate.
2 Engrandécete, oh Juez de la tierra;
Da el pago a los soberbios.
3 ¿Hasta cuándo los impíos,
Hasta cuándo, oh Jehová, se gozarán los impíos?
4 ¿Hasta cuándo pronunciarán, hablarán cosas duras,
Y se vanagloriarán todos los que hacen iniquidad?
5 A tu pueblo, oh Jehová, quebrantan,
Y a tu heredad afligen.
6 A la viuda y al extranjero matan,
Y a los huérfanos quitan la vida.
7 Y dijeron: No verá JAH,
Ni entenderá el Dios de Jacob.
8 Entended, necios del pueblo;
Y vosotros, fatuos, ¿cuándo seréis sabios?
9 El que hizo el oído, ¿no oirá?
El que formó el ojo, ¿no verá?
10 El que castiga a las naciones, ¿no reprenderá?
¿No sabrá el que enseña al hombre la ciencia?
11 Jehová conoce los pensamientos de los hombres,
Que son vanidad.(A)
12 Bienaventurado el hombre a quien tú, JAH, corriges,
Y en tu ley lo instruyes,
13 Para hacerle descansar en los días de aflicción,
En tanto que para el impío se cava el hoyo.
14 Porque no abandonará Jehová a su pueblo,
Ni desamparará su heredad,
15 Sino que el juicio será vuelto a la justicia,
Y en pos de ella irán todos los rectos de corazón.
16 ¿Quién se levantará por mí contra los malignos?
¿Quién estará por mí contra los que hacen iniquidad?
17 Si no me ayudara Jehová,
Pronto moraría mi alma en el silencio.
18 Cuando yo decía: Mi pie resbala,
Tu misericordia, oh Jehová, me sustentaba.
19 En la multitud de mis pensamientos dentro de mí,
Tus consolaciones alegraban mi alma.
20 ¿Se juntará contigo el trono de iniquidades
Que hace agravio bajo forma de ley?
21 Se juntan contra la vida del justo,
Y condenan la sangre inocente.
22 Mas Jehová me ha sido por refugio,
Y mi Dios por roca de mi confianza.
23 Y él hará volver sobre ellos su iniquidad,
Y los destruirá en su propia maldad;
Los destruirá Jehová nuestro Dios.
