O LORD, the God of vengeance, O God of vengeance, let your glorious justice shine forth! |
2
|
Arise, O judge of the earth. Give the proud what they deserve. |
3
|
How long, O LORD? How long will the wicked be allowed to gloat? |
4
|
How long will they speak with arrogance? How long will these evil people boast? |
5
|
They crush your people, LORD, hurting those you claim as your own. |
6
|
They kill widows and foreigners and murder orphans. |
7
|
"The LORD isn't looking," they say, "and besides, the God of Israel doesn't care." |
8
|
Think again, you fools! When will you finally catch on? |
9
|
Is he deaf-- the one who made your ears? Is he blind-- the one who formed your eyes? |
10
|
He punishes the nations-- won't he also punish you? He knows everything-- doesn't he also know what you are doing? |
11
|
The LORD knows people's thoughts; he knows they are worthless! |
12
|
Joyful are those you discipline, LORD, those you teach with your instructions. |
13
|
You give them relief from troubled times until a pit is dug to capture the wicked. |
14
|
The LORD will not reject his people; he will not abandon his special possession. |
15
|
Judgment will again be founded on justice, and those with virtuous hearts will pursue it. |
16
|
Who will protect me from the wicked? Who will stand up for me against evildoers? |
17
|
Unless the LORD had helped me, I would soon have settled in the silence of the grave. |
18
|
I cried out, "I am slipping!" but your unfailing love, O LORD, supported me. |
19
|
When doubts filled my mind, your comfort gave me renewed hope and cheer. |
20
|
Can unjust leaders claim that God is on their side-- leaders whose decrees permit injustice? |
21
|
They gang up against the righteous and condemn the innocent to death. |
22
|
But the LORD is my fortress; my God is the mighty rock where I hide. |
23
|
God will turn the sins of evil people back on them. He will destroy them for their sins. The LORD our God will destroy them. |
