1. A Psalm of David himself. The Fourth Sabbath. The Lord is the God of retribution. The God of retribution acts in order to deliver.
2. Lift yourself up, for you judge the earth. Repay the arrogant with retribution.
3. How long will sinners, O Lord, how long will sinners glory?
4. How long will they utter and speak iniquity? How long will all who work injustice speak out?
5. They have humiliated your people, O Lord, and they have harassed your inheritance.
6. They have executed the widow and the new arrival, and they have slaughtered the orphan.
7. And they have said, "The Lord will not see, nor will the God of Jacob understand."
