Psalm 94 :: Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

Psa 94:1God of vengeance -- Jehovah! God of vengeance, shine forth.
Psa 94:2Be lifted up, O Judge of the earth, Send back a recompence on the proud.
Psa 94:3Till when do the wicked, O Jehovah? Till when do the wicked exult?
Psa 94:4They utter -- they speak an old saw, All working iniquity do boast themselves.
Psa 94:5Thy people, O Jehovah, they bruise, And Thine inheritance they afflict.
Psa 94:6Widow and sojourner they slay, And fatherless ones they murder.
Psa 94:7And they say, 'Jehovah doth not see, And the God of Jacob doth not consider.'
Psa 94:8Consider, ye brutish among the people, And ye foolish, when do ye act wisely?
Psa 94:9He who planteth the ear doth He not hear? He who formeth the eye doth He not see?
Psa 94:10He who is instructing nations, Doth He not reprove? He who is teaching man knowledge is Jehovah.
Psa 94:11He knoweth the thoughts of man, that they are vanity.
Psa 94:12O the happiness of the man Whom Thou instructest, O Jah, And out of Thy law teachest him,
Psa 94:13To give rest to him from days of evil, While a pit is digged for the wicked.
Psa 94:14For Jehovah leaveth not His people, And His inheritance forsaketh not.
Psa 94:15For to righteousness judgment turneth back, And after it all the upright of heart,
Psa 94:16Who riseth up for me with evil doers? Who stationeth himself for me with workers of iniquity?
Psa 94:17Unless Jehovah were a help to me, My soul had almost inhabited silence.
Psa 94:18If I have said, 'My foot hath slipped,' Thy kindness, O Jehovah, supporteth me.
Psa 94:19In the abundance of my thoughts within me, Thy comforts delight my soul.
Psa 94:20Is a throne of mischief joined with Thee? A framer of perverseness by statute?
Psa 94:21They decree against the soul of the righteous, And innocent blood declare wicked.
Psa 94:22And Jehovah is for a high place to me, And my God is for a rock -- my refuge,
Psa 94:23And turneth back on them their iniquity, And in their wickedness cutteth them off; Jehovah our God doth cut them off!
