Psalm 94

Hebrew Names Version HNV

1 LORD, you God to whom vengeance belongs, You God to whom vengeance belongs, shine forth.

2 Rise up, you judge of the eretz. Pay back the proud what they deserve.

3 LORD, how long will the wicked, How long will the wicked triumph?

4 They pour out arrogant words. All the evil-doers boast.

5 They break your people in pieces, LORD, And afflict your heritage.

6 They kill the widow and the alien, And murder the fatherless.

7 They say, "The LORD will not see, Neither will Ya`akov's God consider."

8 Consider, you senseless among the people; You fools, when will you be wise?

9 He who implanted the ear, won't he hear? He who formed the eye, won't he see?

10 He who disciplines the nations, won't he punish? He who teaches man knows.

11 The LORD knows the thoughts of man, That they are futile.

12 Blessed is the man whom you discipline, the LORD, And teach out of your law;

13 That you may give him rest from the days of adversity, Until the pit is dug for the wicked.

14 For the LORD won't reject his people, Neither will he forsake his inheritance.

15 For judgment will return to righteousness. 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 the evil-doers?

17 Unless the LORD had been my help, My soul would have soon lived in silence.

18 When I said, "My foot is slipping!" Your lovingkindness, LORD, held me up.

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

20 Shall the throne of wickedness have fellowship with you, Which brings about mischief by statute?

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

22 But the LORD has been my high tower, My God, the rock of my refuge.

23 He has brought on them their own iniquity, And will cut them off in their own wickedness. The LORD, our God, will cut them off.

The Message Bible MSG

1 God, put an end to evil; avenging God, show your colors!

2 Judge of the earth, take your stand; throw the book at the arrogant.

3 God, the wicked get away with murder - how long will you let this go on?

4 They brag and boast and crow about their crimes!

5 They walk all over your people, God, exploit and abuse your precious people.

6 They take out anyone who gets in their way; if they can't use them, they kill them.

7 They think, "God isn't looking, Jacob's God is out to lunch."

8 Well, think again, you idiots, fools - how long before you get smart?

9 Do you think Ear-Maker doesn't hear, Eye-Shaper doesn't see?

10 Do you think the trainer of nations doesn't correct, the teacher of Adam doesn't know?

11 God knows, all right - knows your stupidity, sees your shallowness.

12 How blessed the man you train, God, the woman you instruct in your Word,

13 Providing a circle of quiet within the clamor of evil, while a jail is being built for the wicked.

14 God will never walk away from his people, never desert his precious people.

15 Rest assured that justice is on its way and every good heart put right.

16 Who stood up for me against the wicked? Who took my side against evil workers?

17 If God hadn't been there for me, I never would have made it.

18 The minute I said, "I'm slipping, I'm falling," your love, God, took hold and held me fast.

19 When I was upset and beside myself, you calmed me down and cheered me up.

20 Can Misrule have anything in common with you? Can Troublemaker pretend to be on your side?

21 They ganged up on good people, plotted behind the backs of the innocent.

22 But God became my hideout, God was my high mountain retreat,

23 Then boomeranged their evil back on them: for their evil ways he wiped them out, our God cleaned them out for good.
