Psalm 5:10

The Refuge Of The Righteous

⁹ For there is nothing reliable in what they say;
destruction is within them;
their throat is an open grave;
they flatter with their tongues.
¹⁰ Punish them, God;
let them fall by their own schemes.
Drive them out because of their many crimes,
for they rebel against You. ¹¹ But let all who take refuge in You rejoice;
let them shout for joy forever.
May You shelter them,
and may those who love Your name boast about You.

Bear Their Guilt

Drive Them Out
