Psalms 94:11-18

¹¹Yahweh knows everything that people are thinking; he knows that what they think ◄ is useless/vanishes as quickly as► smoke MET.

¹²Yahweh, you are pleased with people who want you to discipline/correct them, those who want you to teach them your laws.

¹³When those people have had troubles, you cause those troubles to cease, and some day it will be as though you will dig pits for wicked people, and they will fall into those pits and die.

¹⁴Yahweh will not abandon his people; he will not desert like that those who belong to him DOU.

¹⁵Some day judges will decide matters fairly for people, and all honest/righteous people will be pleased about that.

¹⁶But when wicked people ◄ oppressed me/treated me cruelly►, ◄who defended me?/no one defended me.► RHQ No one stood up to testify for me against those evil people RHQ.

¹⁷If Yahweh had not helped me at that time, I would have been executed, and my soul/spirit would have gone to the place where dead people say nothing.

¹⁸I said/thought to myself, “I am about to die,” but Yahweh, you held me up by faithfully loving me.
