Psalm 94:16

A Prayer For Retribution Against Oppressors

¹⁵ For judgment shall return unto righteousness; And all the upright in heart shall follow it. ¹⁶ Who will rise up for me against the evil-doers? Who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity? ¹⁷ Unless Jehovah had been my help, My soul had soon dwelt in silence.
