Psalms 94

New International Version NIV

1 The LORD is a God who avenges. O God who avenges, shine forth.

2 Rise up, Judge of the earth; pay back to the proud what they deserve.

3 How long, LORD, will the wicked, how long will the wicked be jubilant?

4 They pour out arrogant words; all the evildoers are full of boasting.

5 They crush your people, LORD; they oppress your inheritance.

6 They slay the widow and the foreigner; they murder the fatherless.

7 They say, “The LORD does not see; the God of Jacob takes no notice.”

8 Take notice, you senseless ones among the people; you fools, when will you become wise?

9 Does he who fashioned the ear not hear? Does he who formed the eye not see?

10 Does he who disciplines nations not punish? Does he who teaches mankind lack knowledge?

11 The LORD knows all human plans; he knows that they are futile.

12 Blessed is the one you discipline, LORD, the one you teach from your law;

13 you grant them relief from days of trouble, till a pit is dug for the wicked.

14 For the LORD will not reject his people; he will never forsake his inheritance.

15 Judgment will again be founded on righteousness, and all the upright in heart will follow it.

16 Who will rise up for me against the wicked? Who will take a stand for me against evildoers?

17 Unless the LORD had given me help, I would soon have dwelt in the silence of death.

18 When I said, “My foot is slipping,” your unfailing love, LORD, supported me.

19 When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy.

20 Can a corrupt throne be allied with you— a throne that brings on misery by its decrees?

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

22 But the LORD has become my fortress, and my God the rock in whom I take refuge.

23 He will repay them for their sins and destroy them for their wickedness; the LORD our God will destroy them.

Lexham English Bible LEB

1 O Yahweh, God of vengeance, God of vengeance, shine forth.

2 Rise up, O Judge of the earth. Repay upon the proud what is [their] rightful due.

3 How long [will the] wicked, O Yahweh, how long will [the] wicked exult?

4 {They gush words} unrestrained. All [the] evildoers boast.

5 They crush your people, O Yahweh; they oppress your inheritance.

6 They kill widow and stranger, and they murder orphans,

7 while they say, "Yah does not see," and "The God of Jacob does not pay attention."

8 You pay attention, O brutes among the people. And [you] fools, when you will show insight?

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

10 Will [the] one who instructs nations not rebuke, the one who teaches humankind knowledge?

11 Yahweh knows [the] thoughts of humankind, that {they [are] to no purpose}.

12 Blessed [is] the man, O Yah, whom you instruct and teach from your law,

13 to give him rest from days of trouble, until a pit is dug for the wicked.

14 For Yahweh will not abandon his people, nor forsake his inheritance.

15 For judgment will return to righteousness, and all the upright in heart [will follow] after it.

16 Who rose up for me against [the] wicked? Who stood up for me against [the] workers of iniquity?

17 If Yahweh had not been my help, my soul would soon have dwelt in silence.

18 When I thought, "My foot is slipping," your loyal love, O Yahweh, supported me.

19 When my troubled thoughts were many {within me}, your consolations cheered my soul.

20 Can there be allied with you a throne of destruction, one that forms trouble based on statute?

21 They band together against [the] life of [the] righteous, and declare [the] blameless guilty of blood.

22 But Yahweh has become my [high] stronghold, and my God [has become] my rock of refuge.

23 And he will repay on them their iniquity, and by their evil he will destroy them. Yahweh our God will destroy them.
