9Oh, let the wickedness of the wicked be at an end; But establish the righteous! For the righteous God trieth the heart and the reins.
10My shield is with God, Who saveth the upright in heart.
11God is a righteous judge, And a God who is angry every day.
12If he do not desist, He sharpeneth his sword; He bendeth his bow, and maketh it ready;
13He prepareth for him the instruments of death; He shooteth his burning arrows.
14Behold, he travailed with iniquity, And conceived mischief, But hath brought forth disappointment!
