The LORD Will Not Forget His People

1O Jehovah, thou God to whom vengeance belongeth, Thou God to whom vengeance belongeth, shine forth.+ 2Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth: Render to the proud [their] desert.+ 3Jehovah, how long shall the wicked, How long shall the wicked triumph?+ 4They prate, they speak arrogantly: All the workers of iniquity boast themselves.+ 5They break in pieces thy people, O Jehovah, And afflict thy heritage.+ 6They slay the widow and the sojourner, And murder the fatherless.+ 7And they say, Jehovah will not see, Neither will the God of Jacob consider.+ 8Consider, ye brutish among the people; And ye fools, when will ye be wise?+ 9He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? He that formed the eye, shall he not see?+ 10He that chastiseth the nations, shall not he correct, [Even] he that teacheth man knowledge?+ 11Jehovah knoweth the thoughts of man, That they are vanity.+ 12Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O Jehovah, And teachest out of thy law;+ 13That thou mayest give him rest from the days of adversity, Until the pit be digged for the wicked.+ 14For Jehovah will not cast off his people, Neither will he forsake his inheritance.+ 15For judgment shall return unto righteousness; And all the upright in heart shall follow it.+ 16Who will rise up for me against the evil-doers? Who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?+ 17Unless Jehovah had been my help, My soul had soon dwelt in silence.+ 18When I said, My foot slippeth; Thy lovingkindness, O Jehovah, held me up.+ 19In the multitude of my thoughts within me Thy comforts delight my soul.+ 20Shall the throne of wickedness have fellowship with thee, Which frameth mischief by statute?+ 21They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, And condemn the innocent blood.+ 22But Jehovah hath been my high tower, And my God the rock of my refuge.+ 23And he hath brought upon them their own iniquity, And will cut them off in their own wickedness; Jehovah our God will cut them off.+
