How long will You hide Your face from me?
Rescue my life from their ravages,
my only one from the young lions.
Will Your jealousy keep burning like fire?
how long will You be angry
with Your people’s prayers?
Will Your anger keep burning like fire?
Turn and have compassion on Your servants.
Lord, how long will the wicked—
how long will the wicked gloat?
how long will the wicked gloat?
and You do not listen
or cry out to You about violence
and You do not save?
Then the Angel of the Lord responded, “How long, Lord of Hosts, will You withhold mercy from Jerusalem and the cities of Judah that You have been angry with these 70 years?”

Iniquity » The workers of iniquity
The Lord looks down from heaven on the human race to see if there is one who is wise, one who seeks God. All have turned away; all alike have become corrupt. There is no one who does good, not even one. Will evildoers never understand? They consume my people as they consume bread; they do not call on the Lord.
Do not drag me away with the wicked, with the evildoers, who speak in friendly ways with their neighbors, while malice is in their hearts. Repay them according to what they have done- according to the evil of their deeds. Repay them according to the work of their hands; give them back what they deserve. Because they do not consider what the Lord has done or the work of His hands, He will tear them down and not rebuild them.
indeed, Your enemies will perish;
all evildoers will be scattered.
Lord, how long will the wicked- how long will the wicked gloat? They pour out arrogant words; all the evildoers boast. Lord, they crush Your people; they afflict Your heritage. read more.
