Psalms 94

YLT

NIV

1 God of vengeance -- Jehovah! God of vengeance, shine forth.
1 The LORD is a God who avenges. O God who avenges, shine forth.
2 Be lifted up, O Judge of the earth, Send back a recompence on the proud.
2 Rise up, Judge of the earth; pay back to the proud what they deserve.
3 Till when [do] the wicked, O Jehovah? Till when do the wicked exult?
3 How long, LORD, will the wicked, how long will the wicked be jubilant?
4 They utter -- they speak an old saw, All working iniquity do boast themselves.
4 They pour out arrogant words; all the evildoers are full of boasting.
5 Thy people, O Jehovah, they bruise, And Thine inheritance they afflict.
5 They crush your people, LORD; they oppress your inheritance.
6 Widow and sojourner they slay, And fatherless ones they murder.
6 They slay the widow and the foreigner; they murder the fatherless.
7 And they say, `Jehovah doth not see, And the God of Jacob doth not consider.'
7 They say, “The LORD does not see; the God of Jacob takes no notice.”
8 Consider, ye brutish among the people, And ye foolish, when do ye act wisely?
8 Take notice, you senseless ones among the people; you fools, when will you become wise?
9 He who planteth the ear doth He not hear? He who formeth the eye doth He not see?
9 Does he who fashioned the ear not hear? Does he who formed the eye not see?
10 He who is instructing nations, Doth He not reprove? He who is teaching man knowledge [is] Jehovah.
10 Does he who disciplines nations not punish? Does he who teaches mankind lack knowledge?
11 He knoweth the thoughts of man, that they [are] vanity.
11 The LORD knows all human plans; he knows that they are futile.
12 O the happiness of the man Whom Thou instructest, O Jah, And out of Thy law teachest him,
12 Blessed is the one you discipline, LORD, the one you teach from your law;
13 To give rest to him from days of evil, While a pit is digged for the wicked.
13 you grant them relief from days of trouble, till a pit is dug for the wicked.
14 For Jehovah leaveth not His people, And His inheritance forsaketh not.
14 For the LORD will not reject his people; he will never forsake his inheritance.
15 For to righteousness judgment turneth back, And after it all the upright of heart,
15 Judgment will again be founded on righteousness, and all the upright in heart will follow it.
16 Who riseth up for me with evil doers? Who stationeth himself for me with workers of iniquity?
16 Who will rise up for me against the wicked? Who will take a stand for me against evildoers?
17 Unless Jehovah [were] a help to me, My soul had almost inhabited silence.
17 Unless the LORD had given me help, I would soon have dwelt in the silence of death.
18 If I have said, `My foot hath slipped,' Thy kindness, O Jehovah, supporteth me.
18 When I said, “My foot is slipping,” your unfailing love, LORD, supported me.
19 In the abundance of my thoughts within me, Thy comforts delight my soul.
19 When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy.
20 Is a throne of mischief joined [with] Thee? A framer of perverseness by statute?
20 Can a corrupt throne be allied with you— a throne that brings on misery by its decrees?
21 They decree against the soul of the righteous, And innocent blood declare wicked.
21 The wicked band together against the righteous and condemn the innocent to death.
22 And Jehovah is for a high place to me, And my God [is] for a rock -- my refuge,
22 But the LORD has become my fortress, and my God the rock in whom I take refuge.
23 And turneth back on them their iniquity, And in their wickedness cutteth them off; Jehovah our God doth cut them off!
23 He will repay them for their sins and destroy them for their wickedness; the LORD our God will destroy them.
