Psalm 94

The Complete Jewish Bible CJB

1 God of vengeance, ADONAI! God of vengeance, appear!

2 Assert yourself as judge of the earth! Pay back the proud as they deserve!

3 How long are the wicked, ADONAI, how long are the wicked to triumph?

4 They pour out insolent words, they go on bragging, all these evildoers.

5 They crush your people, ADONAI, they oppress your heritage.

6 They kill widows and strangers and murder the fatherless.

7 They say, "Yah isn't looking; the God of Ya'akov won't notice."

8 Take notice, yourselves, you boors among the people! You fools, when will you understand?

9 Will the one who planted the ear not hear? Will the one who formed the eye not see?

10 Will the one who disciplines nations not correct them? Will the teacher of humanity not know?

11 ADONAI understands that people's thoughts are merely a puff of wind.

12 How happy the man whom you correct, Yah, whom you teach from your Torah,

13 giving him respite from days of trouble, till a pit is dug for the wicked!

14 For ADONAI will not desert his people, he will not abandon his heritage.

15 Justice will once again become righteous, and all the upright in heart will follow it.

16 Who will champion my cause against the wicked? Who will stand up for me against evildoers?

17 If ADONAI hadn't helped me, I would soon have dwelt in the land of silence.

18 When I said, "My foot is slipping!"your grace, ADONAI, supported me.

19 When my cares within me are many, your comforts cheer me up.

20 Can unjust judges be allied with you, those producing wrong in the name of law?

21 They band together against the righteous and condemn the innocent to death.

22 But ADONAI has become my stronghold, my God is my rock of refuge.

23 But he repays them as their guilt deserves; he will cut them off with their own evil; ADONAI our God will cut them off.

King James Version KJV

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.
