Psalm 94 :: American Standard Version (ASV)

Jehovah implored to avenge his People.

Psa 94:1

O Jehovah, thou God to whom vengeance belongeth,

Thou God to whom vengeance belongeth, shine forth.

Psa 94:2

Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth:

Render to the proud their desert.

Psa 94:3

Jehovah, how long shall the wicked,

How long shall the wicked triumph?

Psa 94:4

They prate, they speak arrogantly:

All the workers of iniquity boast themselves.

Psa 94:5

They break in pieces thy people, O Jehovah,

And afflict thy heritage.

Psa 94:6

They slay the widow and the sojourner,

And murder the fatherless.

Psa 94:7

And they say, Jehovah will not see,

Neither will the God of Jacob consider.

Psa 94:8

Consider, ye brutish among the people;

And ye fools, when will ye be wise?

Psa 94:9

He that planted the ear, shall he not hear?

He that formed the eye, shall he not see?

Psa 94:10

He that chastiseth the nations, shall not he correct,

Even he that teacheth man knowledge?

Psa 94:11

Jehovah knoweth the thoughts of man,

That they are vanity.

Psa 94:12

Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O Jehovah,

And teachest out of thy law;

Psa 94:13

That thou mayest give him rest from the days of adversity,

Until the pit be digged for the wicked.

Psa 94:14

For Jehovah will not cast off his people,

Neither will he forsake his inheritance.

Psa 94:15

For judgment shall return unto righteousness;

And all the upright in heart shall follow it.

Psa 94:16

Who will rise up for me against the evil-doers?

Who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?

Psa 94:17

Unless Jehovah had been my help,

My soul had soon dwelt in silence.

Psa 94:18

When I said, My foot slippeth;

Thy lovingkindness, O Jehovah, held me up.

Psa 94:19

In the multitude of my thoughts within me Thy comforts delight my soul.

Psa 94:20

Shall the throne of wickedness have fellowship with thee,

Which frameth mischief by statute?

Psa 94:21

They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous,

And condemn the innocent blood.

Psa 94:22

But Jehovah hath been my high tower,

And my God the rock of my refuge.

Psa 94:23

And he hath brought upon them their own iniquity,

And will cut them off in their own wickedness;

Jehovah our God will cut them off.
