Psalm 94

94 O thou Eternal, thou avenging God,

O thou avenging God, appear;

2 rise up, O Ruler of the world,

and let the haughty have what they deserve!

3 How long is it to last, O thou Eternal,

this exultation of ungodly men,

4 blustering insolently,

lording it arrogantly?

5 They crush thy people, O Eternal,

thy heritage they are harrying,

6 killing the widow and the foreigner

and murdering the fatherless;

7 and they think the Eternal never sees them,

Jacob’s God will never heed them!

8 But mark this, dullest of the dull–

when will you understand, O senseless men?–

9 is he deaf, he who made the ear?

Is he blind, he who formed the eye?

10 Can he not punish men, he who is training them?

Has he no knowledge, he who teaches men?

11 Knowledge! The Eternal knows that human plans

are but an empty breath!

12 Happy is he who has thy discipline

and thine instruction, training him

13 calmly to wait on, in adversity,

till a pit is dug for ungodly men!

14 For the Eternal will not leave his people,

will not forsake his own;

15 no, goodness shall have justice done to it–

the future is with men of upright mind.

16 Who is my champion against the ungodly?

Who sides with me against the evildoers?

17 If the Eternal had not been my help,

I would have soon passed to the silent land.

18 When I think my foot is slipping,

thy goodness, O Eternal, holds me up;

19 when doubts crowd into my mind,

thy comforts cheer me.

20 Can evil rulers have thee for an ally,

who work us injury by law,

21 who attack honest men,

and doom the innocent to death?

22 No, the Eternal who is my protection,

my God who is my strength, my safety–

23 may he requite them for their crime,

and for their evil make an end of them!
