The danger and folly of cruel attackers

O God, in whose hands is punishment, O God of punishment, let your shining face be seen. Yahweh, you God to whom vengeance belongs, you God to whom vengeance belongs, shine forth.
Be lifted up, O judge of the earth; let their reward come to the men of pride. Rise up, you judge of the earth. Pay back the proud what they deserve.
How long will sinners, O Lord, how long will sinners have joy over us? Yahweh, how long will the wicked, how long will the wicked triumph?
Words of pride come from their lips; all the workers of evil say great things of themselves. They pour out arrogant words. All the evildoers boast.
Your people are crushed by them, O Lord, your heritage is troubled, They break your people in pieces, Yahweh, and afflict your heritage.
They put to death the widow and the guest, they take the lives of children who have no father; They kill the widow and the alien, and murder the fatherless.
And they say, Jah will not see it, the God of Jacob will not give thought to it. They say, “Yah will not see, neither will Jacob’s God consider.”
Give your mind to my words, you who are without wisdom among the people; you foolish men, when will you be wise? Consider, you senseless among the people; you fools, when will you be wise?
Has he by whom your ears were planted no hearing? or is he blind by whom your eyes were formed? He who implanted the ear, won’t he hear? He who formed the eye, won’t he see?
He who is the judge of the nations, will he not give men the reward of their acts, even he who gives knowledge to man? He who disciplines the nations, won’t he punish? He who teaches man knows.
The Lord has knowledge of the thoughts of man, for they are only a breath. Yahweh knows the thoughts of man, that they are futile.

Comfort and peace to the attacked with cruelty

Happy is the man who is guided by you, O Jah, and to whom you give teaching out of your law; Blessed is the man whom you discipline, Yah, and teach out of your law;
So that you may give him rest from the days of evil, till a hole is made ready for the destruction of the sinners. that you may give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit is dug for the wicked.
The Lord will not give up his people, or take away his support from his heritage; For Yahweh won’t reject his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.
But decisions will again be made in righteousness; and they will be kept by all whose hearts are true. For judgment will return to righteousness. All the upright in heart shall follow it.
Who will give me help against the sinners? and who will be my support against the workers of evil? Who will rise up for me against the wicked? Who will stand up for me against the evildoers?
If the Lord had not been my helper, my soul would quickly have gone down into death. Unless Yahweh had been my help, my soul would have soon lived in silence.
If I say, My foot is slipping; your mercy, O Lord, is my support. When I said, “My foot is slipping!” Your loving kindness, Yahweh, held me up.
Among all my troubled thoughts, your comforts are the delight of my soul. In the multitude of my thoughts within me, your comforts delight my soul.
What part with you has the seat of sin, which makes evil into a law? Shall the throne of wickedness have fellowship with you, which brings about mischief by statute?
They are banded together against the soul of the upright, to give decisions against those who have done no wrong. They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood.
But the Lord is my safe resting-place; my God is the Rock where I am safe. But Yahweh has been my high tower, my God, the rock of my refuge.
And he has made their evil designs come back on themselves, cutting them off in their sin; the Lord our God will put an end to them. He has brought on them their own iniquity, and will cut them off in their own wickedness. Yahweh, our God, will cut them off.
