1 LORD, God of vengeance — God of vengeance, shine! ⓙ
2 Rise up, Judge of the earth; repay the proud what they deserve. ⓚ
3 LORD, how long will the wicked — how long will the wicked celebrate? ⓛ
4 They pour out arrogant words; all the evildoers boast. ⓜ
5 LORD, they crush your people; they oppress your heritage. ⓝ
6 They kill the widow and the resident alien and murder the fatherless. ⓐ
7 They say, “The LORD doesn’t see it. The God of Jacob doesn’t pay attention.” ⓑ
8 Pay attention, you stupid people! Fools, when will you be wise? ⓒ
9 Can the one who shaped the ear not hear, the one who formed the eye not see? ⓓ
10 The one who instructs nations, the one who teaches mankind knowledge — does he not discipline? ⓔ
11 The LORD knows the thoughts of mankind; they are futile. ⓕ
12 LORD, how happy is anyone you discipline and teach from your law ⓖ
13 to give him relief from troubled times until a pit is dug for the wicked. ⓗ
14 The LORD will not leave his people or abandon his heritage, ⓘ
15 for the administration of justice will again be righteous, and all the upright in heart will follow [1] it. ⓙ
16 Who stands up for me against the wicked? Who takes a stand for me against evildoers? ⓚ
17 If the LORD had not been my helper, I would soon rest in the silence of death. ⓛ
18 If I say, “My foot is slipping,” your faithful love will support me, LORD. ⓜ
19 When I am filled with cares, your comfort brings me joy. ⓝ
20 Can a corrupt throne be your ally, a throne that makes evil laws? ⓐ
21 They band together against the life of the righteous and condemn the innocent to death. ⓑ
22 But the LORD is my refuge; my God is the rock of my protection. ⓒ
23 He will pay them back for their sins and destroy them for their evil. The LORD our God will destroy them. ⓓ
