The LORD Will Not Forget His People

1Yahweh, you God to whom vengeance belongs, you God to whom vengeance belongs, shine out.+ 2Rise up, you judge of the earth. Pay back the proud what they deserve.+ 3Yahweh, how long will the wicked, how long will the wicked triumph?+ 4They pour out arrogant words. All the evildoers boast.+ 5They break your people in pieces, Yahweh, and afflict your heritage.+ 6They kill the widow and the alien, and murder the fatherless.+ 7They say, “Yah will not see, neither will Jacob’s God consider.”+ 8Consider, you senseless among the people; you fools, when will you be wise?+ 9He who implanted the ear, won’t he hear? He who formed the eye, won’t he see?+ 10He who disciplines the nations, won’t he punish? He who teaches man knows.+ 11Yahweh knows the thoughts of man, that they are futile.+ 12Blessed is the man whom you discipline, Yah, and teach out of your law;+ 13that you may give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit is dug for the wicked.+ 14For Yahweh won’t reject his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.+ 15For judgment will return to righteousness. All the upright in heart shall follow it.+ 16Who will rise up for me against the wicked? Who will stand up for me against the evildoers?+ 17Unless Yahweh had been my help, my soul would have soon lived in silence.+ 18When I said, “My foot is slipping!” Your loving kindness, Yahweh, held me up.+ 19In the multitude of my thoughts within me, your comforts delight my soul.+ 20Shall the throne of wickedness have fellowship with you, which brings about mischief by statute?+ 21They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood.+ 22But Yahweh has been my high tower, my God, the rock of my refuge.+ 23He has brought on them their own iniquity, and will cut them off in their own wickedness. Yahweh, our God, will cut them off.+
