Psalms 94
The book of Psalms contains some of the greatest words ever written, sung, and prayed. The psalms are often lyrics of songs for worship. When you read the Psalms, try to imagine the movement of the people at worship in the Temple. Also, remember that the Psalms are poetry. Therefore, they are more to be proclaimed than explained.
O Lord God, to whom vengeance belongeth; O God, to whom vengeance belongeth, shew thyself.
PSALMS 94:1
Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth render a reward to the proud.
PSALMS 94:2
LORD, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked triumph?
PSALMS 94:3
How long shall they utter and speak hard things? and all the workers of iniquity boast themselves?
PSALMS 94:4
They break in pieces thy people, O LORD, and afflict thine heritage.
PSALMS 94:5
They slay the widow and the stranger, and murder the fatherless.
PSALMS 94:6
Yet they say, The LORD shall not see, neither shall the God of Jacob regard it.
PSALMS 94:7
Understand, ye brutish among the people and ye fools, when will ye be wise?
PSALMS 94:8
He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? he that formed the eye, shall he not see?
PSALMS 94:9
He that chastiseth the heathen, shall not he correct? he that teacheth man knowledge, shall not he know?
PSALMS 94:10
The LORD knoweth the thoughts of man, that they are vanity.
PSALMS 94:11
Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O LORD, and teachest him out of thy law;
PSALMS 94:12
That thou mayest give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit be digged for the wicked.
PSALMS 94:13
For the LORD will not cast off his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.
PSALMS 94:14
But judgment shall return unto righteousness and all the upright in heart shall follow it.
PSALMS 94:15
Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? or who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?
PSALMS 94:16
Unless the LORD had been my help, my soul had almost dwelt in silence.
PSALMS 94:17
When I said, My foot slippeth; thy mercy, O LORD, held me up.
PSALMS 94:18
In the multitude of my thoughts within me thy comforts delight my soul.
PSALMS 94:19
Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with thee, which frameth mischief by a law?
PSALMS 94:20
They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood.
PSALMS 94:21
But the LORD is my defence; and my God is the rock of my refuge.
PSALMS 94:22
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.
