Psalm 94:13

A Prayer For Retribution Against Oppressors

¹² How happy the man whom thou correctest, O Yah! And whom, out of thy law, thou instructest! ¹³ That thou mayest give him rest from the days of misfortune, Until there be digged - for the lawless one - a pit. ¹⁴ For Yahweh, will not abandon, his people, And, his inheritance, will he not forsake;
