He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? he that formed the eye, shall he not see?

Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? or who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?

O LORD God, to whom vengeance belongs; O God, to whom vengeance belongs, show thyself.

When I said, My foot slips, thy mercy, O LORD, held me up.

In the multitude of my thoughts within me, thy comforts delight my soul.

But the LORD is my refuge, and my God is the rock of my trust.

LORD, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked triumph?

And he shall bring upon them their own iniquity and shall cut them off in their own wickedness; yea, the LORD our God shall cut them off.

But the judgment shall be returned unto righteousness, and all the upright in heart shall follow it.

They gather themselves together as an army against the life of the righteous and condemn the innocent blood.

to cause him to rest in the days of adversity, until the pit is dug for the wicked.
