9. My soul yearns for you in the night;my spirit within me earnestly seeks you. For when your judgments are in the earth,the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.
10. If favor is shown to the wicked,he does not learn righteousness;in the land of uprightness he deals corruptlyand does not see the majesty of the Lord.
11. O Lord, your hand is lifted up,but they do not see it.Let them see your zeal for your people, and be ashamed.Let the fire for your adversaries consume them.
12. O Lord, you will ordain peace for us,for you have indeed done for us all our works.
13. O Lord our God, other lords besides you have ruled over us, but your name alone we bring to remembrance.
14. They are dead, they will not live;they are shades, they will not arise;to that end you have visited them with destructionand wiped out all remembrance of them.
