94:1  O Lord God, to whom vengeance belongs— O God, to whom vengeance belongs, shine forth!
94:2  Rise up, O Judge of the earth; Render punishment to the proud.
94:3  Lord, how long will the wicked, How long will the wicked triumph?
94:4  They utter speech, and speak insolent things; All the workers of iniquity boast in themselves.
94:5  They break in pieces Your people, O Lord, And afflict Your heritage.
94:6  They slay the widow and the stranger, And murder the fatherless.
94:7  Yet they say, “The Lord does not see, Nor does the God of Jacob understand.”
94:8  Understand, you senseless among the people; And you fools, when will you be wise?
94:9  He who planted the ear, shall He not hear? He who formed the eye, shall He not see?
94:10  He who instructs the nations, shall He not correct, He who teaches man knowledge?
94:11  The Lord knows the thoughts of man, That they are futile.
94:12  Blessed is the man whom You instruct, O Lord, And teach out of Your law,
94:13  That You may give him rest from the days of adversity, Until the pit is dug for the wicked.
94:14  For the Lord will not cast off His people, Nor will He forsake His inheritance.
94:15  But judgment will return to righteousness, And all the upright in heart will follow it.
94:16  Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? Who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?
94:17  Unless the Lord had been my help, My soul would soon have settled in silence.
94:18  If I say, “My foot slips,” Your mercy, O Lord, will hold me up.
94:19  In the multitude of my anxieties within me, Your comforts delight my soul.
94:20  Shall the throne of iniquity, which devises evil by law, Have fellowship with You?
94:21  They gather together against the life of the righteous, And condemn innocent blood.
94:22  But the Lord has been my defense, And my God the rock of my refuge.
94:23  He has brought on them their own iniquity, And shall cut them off in their own wickedness; The Lord our God shall cut them off.
