94 O Lord God, to whom vengeance belongeth; O God, to whom vengeance belongeth, shew thyself.
2 Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth: render a reward to the proud.
3 Lord, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked triumph?
4 How long shall they utter and speak hard things? and all the workers of iniquity boast themselves?
5 They break in pieces thy people, O Lord, and afflict thine heritage.
6 They slay the widow and the stranger, and murder the fatherless.
7 Yet they say, The Lord shall not see, neither shall the God of Jacob regard it.
8 Understand, ye brutish among the people: and ye fools, when will ye be wise?
9 He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? he that formed the eye, shall he not see?
10 He that chastiseth the heathen, shall not he correct? he that teacheth man knowledge, shall not he know?
11 The Lord knoweth the thoughts of man, that they are vanity.
12 Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O Lord, and teachest him out of thy law;
13 That thou mayest give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit be digged for the wicked.
14 For the Lord will not cast off his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.
15 But judgment shall return unto righteousness: and all the upright in heart shall follow it.
16 Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? or who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?
17 Unless the Lord had been my help, my soul had almost dwelt in silence.
18 When I said, My foot slippeth; thy mercy, O Lord, held me up.
19 In the multitude of my thoughts within me thy comforts delight my soul.
20 Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with thee, which frameth mischief by a law?
21 They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood.
22 But the Lord is my defence; and my God is the rock of my refuge.
23 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.

【Verse 1】
O LORD God, to whom vengeance belongeth;
O God, to whom vengeance belongeth,
shew thyself.
Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth:
render a reward to the proud.
LORD, how long shall the wicked,
how long shall the wicked triumph?
How long? How long?
【Chorus】
O LORD God, to whom vengeance belongeth;
O God, to whom vengeance belongeth,
shew thyself.
O LORD God, to whom vengeance belongeth;
O God, to whom vengeance belongeth,
shew thyself.
Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth:
render a reward to the proud.
【Verse 2】
How long shall they utter and speak hard things?
and all the workers of iniquity boast themselves?
They break in pieces thy people, O LORD,
and afflict thine heritage.
They slay the widow and the stranger,
and murder the fatherless.
Yet they say, The LORD shall not see,
neither shall the God of Jacob regard it.
【Verse 3】
He that planted the ear,
shall he not hear?
He that formed the eye,
shall he not see?
He that chastiseth the heathen,
shall not he correct?
He that teacheth man knowledge,
shall not he know?
The LORD knoweth the thoughts of man,
that they are vanity.
【Chorus】
O LORD God, to whom vengeance belongeth;
O God, to whom vengeance belongeth,
shew thyself.
O LORD God, to whom vengeance belongeth;
O God, to whom vengeance belongeth,
shew thyself.
Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth:
render a reward to the proud.
【Verse 4】
Unless the LORD had been my help,
my soul had almost dwelt in silence.
When I said, My foot slippeth;
thy mercy, O LORD, held me up.
In the multitude of my thoughts within me
thy comforts delight my soul.
Thy comforts delight my soul.
【Bridge】
But the LORD is my defence;
and my God is the rock of my refuge.
But the LORD is my defence;
and my God is the rock of my refuge.
My rock, my refuge,
my rock, my refuge.
【Ending】
For the LORD will not cast off his people,
neither will he forsake his inheritance.
But the LORD is my defence;
and my God is the rock of my refuge.
O LORD God, to whom vengeance belongeth;
O God, to whom vengeance belongeth,
shew thyself.
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the quiet of this moment, acknowledging that You are the righteous Judge of all the earth. We thank You that You are the God to whom vengeance belongs—that we do not need to take matters into our own hands, for You see every injustice, You hear every cry, and You are never indifferent to the suffering of Your people. We praise You for Your sovereignty; even when the wicked seem to boast and the foundations of justice feel shaken, You remain the One who planted the ear and formed the eye, and You see all things with perfect clarity.
Lord, we confess that in this broken world, we are often tempted to look at the prosperity of the arrogant and feel discouraged. We see the heavy burdens placed upon the vulnerable, and like the Psalmist, our hearts cry out, "How long?" But today, we bring these burdens to You. We acknowledge that our thoughts are often filled with worry, anxiety, and the noise of a restless world, but we thank You that Your mercy is greater than our frailty. When we have felt our feet slipping—when we have been on the brink of silence and despair—You have held us up.
We thank You that You are not a distant God, but a God of comfort. We pray for those who feel crushed by the systems and injustices of this world. May they know that they are Your inheritance, and You do not cast off Your own. We choose to stop looking at the vanity of man’s power and instead fix our eyes on You, our defense and our rock.
Father, as we meditate on these words, we ask that You would settle our spirits. If there is bitterness in our hearts, wash it away with Your truth. If there is fear, replace it with the knowledge that You are our fortress. May our lives be a reflection of Your righteousness—not by our own strength, but by relying on the Rock who never moves. We entrust our present struggles, our past hurts, and our future hopes into Your hands, knowing that You are the God who answers, the God who rescues, and the God who remains our only true refuge.
In the name of the One who is our ultimate defense and our eternal Rock, Jesus Christ, Amen.
