Psalms 94:11-18
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 94
11The Lord knows human thoughts, That they are mere breath. 12Blessed is the man whom You discipline, Lord, And whom You teach from Your Law, 13So that You may grant him relief from the days of adversity, Until a pit is dug for the wicked. 14For the Lord will not abandon His people, Nor will He abandon His inheritance. 15For judgment will again be righteous, And all the upright in heart will follow it. 16Who will stand up for me against evildoers? Who will take his stand for me against those who do injustice? 17If the Lord had not been my help, My soul would soon have dwelt in the land of silence. 18If I should say, 'My foot has slipped,' Your faithfulness, Lord, will support me.King James Version
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 94
11The Lord knows the thoughts of mankind; they are futile. 12 Lord, how happy is anyone you discipline and teach from your law 13to give him relief from troubled times until a pit is dug for the wicked. 14The Lord will not leave his people or abandon his heritage,
15for the administration of justice will again be righteous, and all the upright in heart will follow it.
16Who stands up for me against the wicked? Who takes a stand for me against evildoers?
17If the Lord had not been my helper, I would soon rest in the silence of death.
18If I say, "My foot is slipping," your faithful love will support me, Lord.
New Living Translation
12Joyful are those you discipline, Lord, those you teach with your instructions.
13You give them relief from troubled times until a pit is dug to capture the wicked.
14The Lord will not reject his people; he will not abandon his special possession.
15Judgment will again be founded on justice, and those with virtuous hearts will pursue it.
English Standard Version
Chapter 94
11 the Lord — knows the thoughts of man, that they are but a breath. 12 Blessed is the man whom you discipline, O Lord, and whom you teach out of your law, 13to give him rest from days of trouble, until a pit is dug for the wicked. 14 For the Lord will not forsake his people; he will not abandon his heritage; 15for justice will return to the righteous, and all the upright in heart will follow it. 16 Who rises up for me against the wicked? Who stands up for me against evildoers? 17 If the Lord had not been my help, my soul would soon have lived in the land of silence. 18When I thought, "My foot slips," your steadfast love, O Lord, held me up.New International Version
Chapter 94
11The Lord knows all human plans; he knows that they are futile. 12Blessed is the one you discipline, Lord, the one you teach from your law; 13you grant them relief from days of trouble, till a pit is dug for the wicked. 14For the Lord will not reject his people; he will never forsake his inheritance.
15Judgment will again be founded on righteousness, and all the upright in heart will follow it.
16Who will rise up for me against the wicked? Who will take a stand for me against evildoers?
17Unless the Lord had given me help, I would soon have dwelt in the silence of death.
18When I said, "My foot is slipping," your unfailing love, Lord, supported me.
