Psalm 94:1-11
Psalm 94
The Lord is a God who punishes.
Since you are the one who punishes, come and show your anger.
Judge of the earth, rise up.
Pay back proud people for what they have done.
Lord, how long will those who are evil be glad?
How long will they be full of joy?
Proud words pour out of their mouths.
All those who do evil are always bragging.
Lord, they crush your people.
They treat badly those who belong to you.
They kill outsiders. They kill widows.
They murder children whose fathers have died.
They say, “The Lord doesn’t see what’s happening.
The God of Jacob doesn’t pay any attention to it.”
You who aren’t wise, pay attention.
You foolish people, when will you become wise?
Does he who made the ear not hear?
Does he who formed the eye not see?
Does he who corrects nations not punish?
Does he who teaches human beings not know anything?
The Lord knows what people think.
He knows that their thoughts don’t amount to anything.
