Psalm 94:12-23

12Blessed is the one you discipline, LORD, the one you teach from your law;

13you grant them relief from days of trouble, till a pit is dug for the wicked.

14For the LORD will not reject his people; he will never forsake his inheritance.

15Judgment will again be founded on righteousness, and all the upright in heart will follow it.

16Who will rise up for me against the wicked? Who will take a stand for me against evildoers?

17Unless the LORD had given me help, I would soon have dwelt in the silence of death.

18When I said, “My foot is slipping,” your unfailing love, LORD, supported me.

19When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy.

20Can a corrupt throne be allied with you— a throne that brings on misery by its decrees?

21The wicked band together against the righteous and condemn the innocent to death.

22But the LORD has become my fortress, and my God the rock in whom I take refuge. 23He will repay them for their sins and destroy them for their wickedness; the LORD our God will destroy them.
