1 O LORD, the God who avenges! O God who avenges, reveal your splendor! 2 Rise up, O judge of the earth! Pay back the proud! 3 O LORD, how long will the wicked, how long will the wicked celebrate? 4 They spew out threats and speak defiantly; all the evildoers boast. 5 O LORD, they crush your people; they oppress the nation that belongs to you. 6 They kill the widow and the one residing outside his native land, and they murder the fatherless. 7 Then they say, |The LORD does not see this; the God of Jacob does not take notice of it.| 8 Take notice of this, you ignorant people! You fools, when will you ever understand? 9 Does the one who makes the human ear not hear? Does the one who forms the human eye not see? Psalms 94:1-9, New English Translation.
