Psalm 94:16

A Prayer For Retribution Against Oppressors

¹⁵ But the judgment shall be returned unto righteousness, and all the upright in heart shall follow it. ¹⁶ Who will stand up for me against evildoers?
Who will take his stand for me against those who do wickedness?
¹⁷ Unless the LORD had been my help, my soul would have quickly dwelt with the dead.
