Psalms 94

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.

New Living Translation NLT

1 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.
