- Blessed is the man you discipline, O LORD, the man you teach from your law;
- you grant him relief from days of trouble, till a pit is dug for the wicked.
- For the LORD will not reject his people; he will never forsake his inheritance.
- Judgment will again be founded on righteousness, and all the upright in heart will follow it.
- Who will rise up for me against the wicked? Who will take a stand for me against evildoers?
|
- Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O LORD, and teachest him out of thy law;
- That thou mayest give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit be digged for the wicked.
- For the LORD will not cast off his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.
- But judgment shall return unto righteousness: and all the upright in heart shall follow it.
- Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? or who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?
|
- Unless the LORD had given me help, I would soon have dwelt in the silence of death.
- When I said, "My foot is slipping," your love, O LORD, supported me.
- When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought joy to my soul.
- Can a corrupt throne be allied with you-- one that brings on misery by its decrees?
- They band together against the righteous and condemn the innocent to death.
|
- Unless the LORD had been my help, my soul had almost dwelt in silence.
- When I said, My foot slippeth; thy mercy, O LORD, held me up.
- In the multitude of my thoughts within me thy comforts delight my soul.
- Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with thee, which frameth mischief by a law?
- They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood.
|
- But the LORD has become my fortress, and my God the rock in whom I take refuge.
- He will repay them for their sins and destroy them for their wickedness; the LORD our God will destroy them.
|
- But the LORD is my defence; and my God is the rock of my refuge.
- And he shall bring upon them their own iniquity, and shall cut them off in their own wickedness; yea, the LORD our God shall cut them off.
