Psalm 94  Legacy Standard Bible

⁸ Discern, you ^(M)senseless among the people;
And when will you have insight, ^(N)you fools?
⁹ He who ^(O)planted the ear, ^[d]does He not hear?
He who formed the eye, ^[e]does He not see?
¹⁰ He who ^[f](P)disciplines the nations, will He not rebuke,
Even He who ^(Q)teaches man knowledge?
¹¹ Yahweh ^(R)knows the thoughts of man,
^[g]That they are vanity.

¹² Blessed is the man whom ^(S)You discipline, O Yah,
And ^(T)whom You teach out of Your law;
¹³ That You may grant him ^(U)calm from the ^(V)days of calamity,
Until ^(W)a pit is dug for the wicked.
¹⁴ For ^(X)Yahweh will not abandon His people,
Nor will He ^(Y)forsake His inheritance.
¹⁵ For ^[h](Z)judgment will ^[i]again be righteous,
And all the upright in heart will ^[j]follow it.
¹⁶ Who will ^(AA)arise for me against evildoers?
Who will take his stand for me ^(AB)against workers of iniquity?

¹⁷ If ^(AC)Yahweh had not been my help,
My soul would soon have dwelt in the abode of silence.
¹⁸ If I should say, “^(AD)My foot has stumbled,”
Your lovingkindness, O Yahweh, will hold me up.
¹⁹ When my anxious thoughts ^[k]multiply within me,
Your ^(AE)consolations delight my soul.
²⁰ Can a ^[l](AF)throne of destruction be allied with You,
One ^(AG)which forms ^[m]trouble by statute?
²¹ They ^(AH)band themselves together against the ^[n]life of the righteous
And ^(AI)condemn ^[o]the innocent to death.
²² But Yahweh has been my ^(AJ)stronghold,
And my God the ^(AK)rock of my refuge.
²³ He has ^(AL)brought back their ^[p]iniquity upon them
And will ^[q](AM)destroy them in their evil;
Yahweh our God will ^[r]destroy them.
