Psalm 94
94
1 The Praise of a Canticle, of David himself. Come, let us exult in the Lord. Let us shout joyfully to God, our Savior.
2 Let us anticipate his presence with confession, and let us sing joyfully to him with psalms.
3 For the Lord is a great God and a great King over all gods.
4 For in his hand are all the limits of the earth, and the heights of the mountains are his.
5 For the sea is his, and he made it, and his hands formed the dry land.
6 Come, let us adore and fall prostrate, and let us weep before the Lord who made us.
7 For he is the Lord our God, and we are the people of his pasture and the sheep of his hand.
8 If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts:
9 as in the provocation, according to the day of temptation in the wilderness, where your fathers tempted me; they tested me, though they had seen my works.
10 For forty years, I was offended by that generation, and I said: These have always strayed in heart.
11 And these have not known my ways. So I swore in my wrath: They shall not enter into my rest.

Psalms 94
94
God the Judge of All
1 LORD, you are a God who punishes;
reveal your anger!
2You are the judge of all;
rise and give the proud what they deserve!
3How much longer will the wicked be glad?
How much longer, LORD?
4How much longer will criminals be proud
and boast about their crimes?
5They crush your people, LORD;
they oppress those who belong to you.
6They kill widows and orphans,
and murder the strangers who live in our land.
7They say, “The LORD does not see us;
the God of Israel does not notice.”
8My people, how can you be such stupid fools?
When will you ever learn?
9God made our ears — can't he hear?
He made our eyes — can't he see?
10He scolds the nations — won't he punish them?#94.10 them?; or our wicked leaders?
He is the teacher of all — hasn't he any knowledge?
11 #
1 Cor 3.20
The LORD knows what they think;
he knows how senseless their reasoning is.
12 LORD, how happy are those you instruct,
the ones to whom you teach your law!
13You give them rest from days of trouble
until a pit is dug to trap the wicked.
14The LORD will not abandon his people;
he will not desert those who belong to him.
15Justice will again be found in the courts,
and all righteous people will support it.
16Who stood up for me against the wicked?
Who took my side against the evildoers?
17If the LORD had not helped me,
I would have gone quickly to the land of silence.#94.17 land of silence: The world of the dead (see 6.5).
18I said, “I am falling”;
but your constant love, O LORD, held me up.
19Whenever I am anxious and worried,
you comfort me and make me glad.
20You have nothing to do with corrupt judges,
who make injustice legal,
21who plot against good people
and sentence the innocent to death.
22But the LORD defends me;
my God protects me.
23He will punish them for their wickedness
and destroy them for their sins;
the LORD our God will destroy them.
