God of Vengeance, Shine Forth
O Yahweh, God of avengeance,
God of vengeance, bshine forth!
2 aBe lifted up, O bJudge of the earth,
Render recompense cto the proud.
3 How long shall the wicked, O Yahweh,
How long shall the awicked exult?
4 They pour forth words, they aspeak arrogantly;
All workers of iniquity bvaunt themselves.
5 They acrush Your people, O Yahweh,
And bafflict Your inheritance.
6 They aslay the widow and the sojourner
And murder the orphans.
7 aThey have said, “Yah does not see,
Nor does the God of Jacob discern.”
8 Discern, you asenseless among the people;
And when will you have insight, ayou fools?
9 He who aplanted the ear, does He not hear?
He who formed the eye, does He not see?
10 He who adisciplines the nations, will He not rebuke,
Even He who bteaches man knowledge?
11 Yahweh aknows the thoughts of man,
That they are vanity.
