|
\v 4 They do evil things, and they boast about doing them;
|
|
\q2 how long will they be allowed to continue doing that?
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 5 Yahweh, it is as though those wicked people were crushing us, your people;

\v 8 You evil people who rule Israel, you are foolish and stupid;
|
|
\q2 when will you become wise?
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 9 God made our ears;
|
|
\q2 do you think that he cannot hear what you say?
|
|
\q1 He created our eyes;
|
|
\q2 do you think that he cannot see the evil things that you do?
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 10 He corrects the leaders of other nations;
|
|
\q2 do you think that he will not punish you?
|
|
\q1 He is the one who knows everything;
|
|
\q2 why do you think that he does not know what you do?
|
|
\q2
|
|
\v 11 Yahweh knows everything that people are thinking;
|
|
\q2 he knows that what they think is evil and useless.

\q1
|
|
\v 12 Yahweh, how fortunate are those who allow you to discipline them,
|
|
\q2 those who want you to teach them your laws.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 13 When those people have had troubles, you cause those troubles to cease,
|
|
\q1 and someday it will be as though you will dig pits for the wicked people,
|
|
\q2 and that they will fall into those pits and die.
|
|
|
|

\v 14 Yahweh will not abandon his people;
|
|

|
|
\v 15 Someday judges will decide matters fairly for people,
|
|
\q2 and all honest people will be pleased about that.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 16 But when wicked people oppressed me,
|
|
\q1 no one defended me!
|
|
\q2 No one stood up to testify for me against those evil people.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 17 If Yahweh had not helped me at that time,
|
|
\q2 I would have been executed;
|
|
\q2 my life would have gone to the place where dead people say nothing.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 18 I said, "I am falling into disaster,"
|
|
\q2 but, Yahweh, you held me up by faithfully loving me.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 19 Whenever I am very worried,
|
|
\q2 you comfort me and cause me to be happy.

|
|
\q2 those who establish laws that allow people to do what is not right.
|

|
|
\v 21 They plan to get rid of righteous people,
|
|
\q1 and they declare that innocent people must be executed.
|
|
|
|
\s5

|
\q1
|
|
\v 22 But Yahweh has become like my fortress;
|
|
\q2 my God is like a huge rock on which I am protected.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 23 He will punish those wicked leaders in return for the things that they have done;
|
|
\q2 he will get rid of them because of the sins that they have committed;
|
|
\q2 yes, Yahweh our God will wipe them out.
