But know that Jehovah hath set apart for himself him that is godly: Jehovah will hear when I call unto him.

Jehovah hath made himself known, he hath executed judgment: The wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah

Thou hast seen it ; for thou beholdest mischief and spite, to requite it with thy hand: The helpless committeth himself unto thee; Thou hast been the helper of the fatherless.

Let destruction come upon him unawares; And let his net that he hath hid catch himself: With destruction let him fall therein.

For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, That his iniquity will not be found out and be hated.

He deviseth iniquity upon his bed; He setteth himself in a way that is not good; He abhorreth not evil.

I have seen the wicked in great power, And spreading himself like a green tree in its native soil.

God hath made himself known in her palaces for a refuge.

And the heavens shall declare his righteousness; For God is judge himself. Selah

Lo, this is the man that made not God his strength, But trusted in the abundance of his riches, And strengthened himself in his wickedness.

For it was not an enemy that reproached me; Then I could have borne it: Neither was it he that hated me that did magnify himself against me; Then I would have hid myself from him:

Yea, of Zion it shall be said, This one and that one was born in her; And the Most High himself will establish her.

Jehovah reigneth; he is clothed with majesty; Jehovah is clothed with strength; he hath girded himself therewith: The world also is established, that it cannot be moved.

He clothed himself also with cursing as with his garment, And it came into his inward parts like water, And like oil into his bones.

Let it be unto him as the raiment wherewith he covereth himself, And for the girdle wherewith he is girded continually.

That humbleth himself to behold The things that are in heaven and in the earth?

His enemies will I clothe with shame; But upon himself shall his crown flourish.

For Jehovah hath chosen Jacob unto himself, And Israel for his own possession.

For Jehovah will judge his people, And repent himself concerning his servants.
