Context

Psalm 94

94:1 O Lord, the God who avenges! O God who avenges, reveal your splendor! 94:2 Rise up, O judge of the earth! Pay back the proud! 94:3 O Lord, how long will the wicked, how long will the wicked celebrate? 94:4 They spew out threats and speak defiantly; all the evildoers boast. 94:5 O Lord, they crush your people; they oppress the nation that belongs to you. 94:6 They kill the widow and the one residing outside his native land, and they murder the fatherless. 94:7 Then they say, “The Lord does not see this; the God of Jacob does not take notice of it.” 94:8 Take notice of this, you ignorant people! You fools, when will you ever understand? 94:9 Does the one who makes the human ear not hear? Does the one who forms the human eye not see? 94:10 Does the one who disciplines the nations not punish? He is the one who imparts knowledge to human beings! 94:11 The Lord knows that peoples’ thoughts are morally bankrupt.
