13You give him rest in times of trouble until a pit is dug for the wicked.
14For Yahweh will not forsake his people or abandon his inheritance.
15For judgment will again be righteous; and all the upright in heart will follow it.
16Who will rise up to defend me against the evildoers? Who will stand up for me against the wicked?
17Unless Yahweh had been my help, I would soon be lying down in the place of silence.
18When I said, “My foot is slipping,” Your covenant faithfulness, Yahweh, held me up.
19When cares within me are many, your consolations make me happy.
20Can a throne of destruction be allied with you, one who creates injustice by statute?
