- 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?
|
- 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.
|
- 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.
