'Demand' in the Bible

Why has the wicked person despised God?He says to himself, “You will not demand an account.”

Those who seek my life lay snares for me,And those who seek to injure me threaten mischievous things and destruction;They devise treachery all the day long.

For strangers have risen against meAnd violent men have sought my life;They have not set God before them. Selah.

But those who seek my life to destroy itWill [be destroyed and] go into the depths of the earth [into the underworld].

Let those be ashamed and humiliatedWho seek my life;Let them be turned back and humiliatedWho delight in my hurt.

My tongue also will speak of Your righteousness all day long;For they are ashamed, for they are humiliated who seek my injury.

You demand that your precepts be carefully kept.

I have gone astray like a lost sheep;Seek Your servant, for I do not forget Your commandments.

for there our captors ask us to compose songs; those who mock us demand that we be happy, saying: "Sing for us a song about Zion!"
