10. If the wicked are shown mercy,they do not learn about justice.Even in a land where right is rewarded, they act unjustly;they do not see the Lord’s majesty revealed.
11. O Lord, you are ready to act,but they don’t even notice.They will see and be put to shame by your angry judgment against humankind,yes, fire will consume your enemies.
12. O Lord, you make us secure,for even all we have accomplished, you have done for us.
13. O Lord, our God,masters other than you have ruled us,but we praise your name alone.
14. The dead do not come back to life,the spirits of the dead do not rise.That is because you came in judgment and destroyed them,you wiped out all memory of them.
15. You have made the nation larger, O Lord,you have made the nation larger and revealed your splendor,you have extended all the borders of the land.
