| 1 | O LORD, Thou God to whom vengeance belongeth, Thou God to whom vengeance belongeth, shine forth. |
| 2 | Lift up Thyself, Thou Judge of the earth; Render to the proud their recompense. |
| 3 | LORD, how long shall the wicked, How long shall the wicked exult? |
| 4 | They gush out, they speak arrogancy; All the workers of iniquity bear themselves loftily. |
| 5 | They crush Thy people, O LORD, And afflict Thy heritage. |
| 6 | They slay the widow and the stranger, And murder the fatherless. |
| 7 | And they say: 'The LORD will not see, Neither will the God of Jacob give heed.' |
| 8 | Consider, ye brutish among the people; And ye fools, when will ye understand? |
| 9 | He that planted the ear, shall He not hear? He that formed the eye, shall He not see? |
| 10 | He that instructeth nations, shall not He correct? Even He that teacheth man knowledge? |
| 11 | The LORD knoweth the thoughts of man, That they are vanity. |
| 12 | Happy is the man whom Thou instructest, O LORD, And teachest out of Thy law; |
| 13 | That Thou mayest give him rest from the days of evil, Until the pit be digged for the wicked. |
| 14 | For the LORD will not cast off His people, Neither will He forsake His inheritance. |
| 15 | For right shall return unto justice, And all the upright in heart shall follow it. |
| 16 | Who will rise up for me against the evil-doers? Who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity? |
| 17 | Unless the LORD had been my help, My soul had soon dwelt in silence. |
| 18 | If I say: 'My foot slippeth', Thy mercy, O LORD, holdeth me up. |
| 19 | When my cares are many within me, Thy comforts delight my soul. |
| 20 | Shall the seat of wickedness have fellowship with Thee, Which frameth mischief by statute? |
| 21 | They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, And condemn innocent blood. |
| 22 | But the LORD hath been my high tower, And my God the rock of my refuge. |
| 23 | And He hath brought upon them their own iniquity, And will cut them off in their own evil; The LORD our God will cut them off. |
