1O LORD, the God of vengeance, O God of vengeance, let your glorious justice shine forth!1אֵל־ נְקָמ֥וֹת יְהוָ֑ה אֵ֖ל נְקָמ֣וֹת הוֹפִֽיַע׃
2Arise, O Judge of the earth. Give the proud what they deserve.2הִ֭נָּשֵׂא שֹׁפֵ֣ט הָאָ֑רֶץ הָשֵׁ֥ב גְּ֝מ֗וּל עַל־ גֵּאִֽים׃
3How long, O LORD? How long will the wicked be allowed to gloat?3עַד־ מָתַ֖י רְשָׁעִ֥ים ׀ יְהוָ֑ה עַד־ מָ֝תַ֗י רְשָׁעִ֥ים יַעֲלֹֽזוּ׃
4How long will they speak with arrogance? How long will these evil people boast?4יַבִּ֣יעוּ יְדַבְּר֣וּ עָתָ֑ק יִֽ֝תְאַמְּר֗וּ כָּל־ פֹּ֥עֲלֵי אָֽוֶן׃
5They crush your people, LORD, hurting those you claim as your own.5עַמְּךָ֣ יְהוָ֣ה יְדַכְּא֑וּ וְֽנַחֲלָתְךָ֥ יְעַנּֽוּ׃
6They kill widows and foreigners and murder orphans.6אַ֭לְמָנָה וְגֵ֣ר יַהֲרֹ֑גוּ וִֽיתוֹמִ֣ים יְרַצֵּֽחוּ׃
7“The LORD isn’t looking,” they say, “and besides, the God of Israel doesn’t care.”7וַ֭יֹּ֣אמְרוּ לֹ֣א יִרְאֶה־ יָּ֑הּ וְלֹא־ יָ֝בִ֗ין אֱלֹהֵ֥י יַעֲקֹֽב׃
8Think again, you fools! When will you finally catch on?8בִּ֭ינוּ בֹּעֲרִ֣ים בָּעָ֑ם וּ֝כְסִילִ֗ים מָתַ֥י תַּשְׂכִּֽילוּ׃
9Is he deaf—the one who made your ears? Is he blind—the one who formed your eyes?9הֲנֹ֣טַֽע אֹ֭זֶן הֲלֹ֣א יִשְׁמָ֑ע אִֽם־ יֹ֥צֵֽר עַ֝֗יִן הֲלֹ֣א יַבִּֽיט׃
10He punishes the nations—won’t he also punish you? He knows everything—doesn’t he also know what you are doing?10הֲיֹסֵ֣ר גּ֭וֹיִם הֲלֹ֣א יוֹכִ֑יחַ הַֽמְלַמֵּ֖ד אָדָ֣ם דָּֽעַת׃
11The LORD knows people’s thoughts; he knows they are worthless!11יְֽהוָ֗ה יֹ֭דֵעַ מַחְשְׁב֣וֹת אָדָ֑ם כִּי־ הֵ֥מָּה הָֽבֶל׃
12Joyful are those you discipline, LORD, those you teach with your instructions.12אַשְׁרֵ֤י ׀ הַגֶּ֣בֶר אֲשֶׁר־ תְּיַסְּרֶ֣נּוּ יָּ֑הּ וּֽמִתּוֹרָתְךָ֥ תְלַמְּדֶֽנּוּ׃
13You give them relief from troubled times until a pit is dug to capture the wicked.13לְהַשְׁקִ֣יט ל֭וֹ מִ֣ימֵי רָ֑ע עַ֤ד יִכָּרֶ֖ה לָרָשָׁ֣ע שָֽׁחַת׃
14The LORD will not reject his people; he will not abandon his special possession.14כִּ֤י ׀ לֹא־ יִטֹּ֣שׁ יְהוָ֣ה עַמּ֑וֹ וְ֝נַחֲלָת֗וֹ לֹ֣א יַעֲזֹֽב׃
15Judgment will again be founded on justice, and those with virtuous hearts will pursue it.15כִּֽי־ עַד־ צֶ֭דֶק יָשׁ֣וּב מִשְׁפָּ֑ט וְ֝אַחֲרָ֗יו כָּל־ יִשְׁרֵי־ לֵֽב׃
16Who will protect me from the wicked? Who will stand up for me against evildoers?16מִֽי־ יָק֣וּם לִ֭י עִם־ מְרֵעִ֑ים מִֽי־ יִתְיַצֵּ֥ב לִ֝י עִם־ פֹּ֥עֲלֵי אָֽוֶן׃
17Unless the LORD had helped me, I would soon have settled in the silence of the grave.17לוּלֵ֣י יְ֭הוָה עֶזְרָ֣תָה לִּ֑י כִּמְעַ֓ט ׀ שָֽׁכְנָ֖ה דוּמָ֣ה נַפְשִֽׁי׃
18I cried out, “I am slipping!” but your unfailing love, O LORD, supported me.18אִם־ אָ֭מַרְתִּי מָ֣טָה רַגְלִ֑י חַסְדְּךָ֥ יְ֝הוָ֗ה יִסְעָדֵֽנִי׃
19When doubts filled my mind, your comfort gave me renewed hope and cheer.19בְּרֹ֣ב שַׂרְעַפַּ֣י בְּקִרְבִּ֑י תַּ֝נְחוּמֶ֗יךָ יְֽשַׁעַשְׁע֥וּ נַפְשִֽׁי׃
20Can unjust leaders claim that God is on their side— leaders whose decrees permit injustice?20הַֽ֭יְחָבְרְךָ כִּסֵּ֣א הַוּ֑וֹת יֹצֵ֖ר עָמָ֣ל עֲלֵי־ חֹֽק׃
21They gang up against the righteous and condemn the innocent to death.21יָ֭גוֹדּוּ עַל־ נֶ֣פֶשׁ צַדִּ֑יק וְדָ֖ם נָקִ֣י יַרְשִֽׁיעוּ׃
22But the LORD is my fortress; my God is the mighty rock where I hide.22וַיְהִ֬י יְהוָ֣ה לִ֣י לְמִשְׂגָּ֑ב וֵ֝אלֹהַ֗י לְצ֣וּר מַחְסִֽי׃
23God will turn the sins of evil people back on them. He will destroy them for their sins. The LORD our God will destroy them.23וַיָּ֤שֶׁב עֲלֵיהֶ֨ם ׀ אֶת־ אוֹנָ֗ם וּבְרָעָתָ֥ם יַצְמִיתֵ֑ם יַ֝צְמִיתֵ֗ם יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ׃
