3. Jehovah, how long shall the wicked, How long shall the wicked triumph?
4. They prate, they speak arrogantly: All the workers of iniquity boast themselves.
5. They break in pieces thy people, O Jehovah, And afflict thy heritage.
6. They slay the widow and the sojourner, And murder the fatherless.
7. And they say, Jehovah will not see, Neither will the God of Jacob consider.
8. Consider, 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 nations, shall not he correct, Even he that teacheth man knowledge?
11. Jehovah knoweth the thoughts of man, That they are vanity.
12. Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O Jehovah, And teachest out of thy law;
13. That thou mayest give him rest from the days of adversity, Until the pit be digged for the wicked.
