4. How long shall they utter and speak malicious lies? And all the po'alei aven (workers of iniquity) glorify themselves?
5. They crush Thy people, Hashem, and afflict Thine nachalah.
6. They slay the almanah and the ger, and murder the yetomim (fatherless, orphans).
7. Yet they say, Hashem shall not see, neither shall the Elohei Ya'akov regard it.
8. Understand, ye brutish among the people; and ye kesilim (fools), when will ye get seichel?
9. He that planted the ozen (ear), shall He not hear? He that formed the ayin (eye), shall He not see?
10. He that chastiseth the Goyim, shall not He reprove? He that is the melamed (teacher) of da'as to adam?
11. Hashem knoweth the machshevot (thoughts) of adam, that they are hevel (vanity, futile).
12. Ashrei (blessed) is the gever whom Thou chastenest, Hashem, and teachest him out of Thy torah;
13. That Thou mayest grant him relief from the days of rah, until a shachat (pit) is dug for the rasha.
14. For Hashem will not cast off His people, neither will He forsake His nachalah.
15. But mishpat shall revert unto tzedek; and all the yishrei lev (upright in heart) shall follow after it.
