Psalms 94:13-23

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?

²¹They conspire together to take the life of the righteous and they condemn the innocent to death.

²²But Yahweh has been my high tower, and my God has been the rock of my refuge.

²³He will bring on them their own iniquity and will cut them off in their own wickedness. Yahweh our God will cut them off.
