Psalms 94
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1O LORD, Thou God to whom vengeance belongeth, Thou God to whom vengeance belongeth, shine forth.
1Come let us praise the Lord with joy: let us joyfully sing to God our saviour.
2Lift up Thyself, Thou Judge of the earth; render to the proud their recompense.
2Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving; and make a joyful noise to him with psalms.
3LORD, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked exult?
3For the Lord is a great God, and a great King above all gods.
4They gush out, they speak arrogancy; all the workers of iniquity bear themselves loftily.
4For in his hand are all the ends of the earth: and the heights of the mountains are his.
5They crush Thy people, O LORD, and afflict Thy heritage.
5For the sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land.
6They slay the widow and the stranger, and murder the fatherless.
6Come let us adore and fall down: and weep before the Lord that made us.
7And they say: 'The LORD will not see, neither will the God of Jacob give heed.'
7For he is the Lord our God: and we are the people of his pasture and the sheep of his hand.
8Consider, ye brutish among the people; and ye fools, when will ye understand?
8Today if you shall hear his voice, harden not your hearts:
9He that planted the ear, shall He not hear? He that formed the eye, shall He not see?
9As in the provocation, according to the day of temptation in the wilderness: where your fathers tempted me, they proved me, and saw my works.
10He that instructeth nations, shall not He correct? even He that teacheth man knowledge?
10Forty years long was I offended with that generation, and I said: These always err in heart.
11The LORD knoweth the thoughts of man, that they are vanity.
11And these men have not known my ways: so I swore in my wrath that they shall not enter into my rest.
12Happy is the man whom Thou instructest, O LORD, and teachest out of Thy law;
