Read the chapter

1Yahweh, you God to whom vengeance belongs, you God to whom vengeance belongs, shine out. ✦ 2Rise up, you judge of the earth. Pay back the proud what they deserve. ✦ 3Yahweh, how long will the wicked, how long will the wicked triumph? ✦ 4They pour out arrogant words. All the evildoers boast. ✦ 5They break your people in pieces, Yahweh, and afflict your heritage. ✦ 6They kill the widow and the alien, and murder the fatherless. ✦ 7They say, “Yah will not see, neither will Jacob’s God consider.” ✦ 8Consider, you senseless among the people; you fools, when will you be wise? ✦ 9He who implanted the ear, won’t he hear? He who formed the eye, won’t he see? ✦ 10He who disciplines the nations, won’t he punish? He who teaches man knows. ✦ 11Yahweh knows the thoughts of man, that they are futile. ✦ 12Blessed is the man whom you discipline, Yah, and teach out of your law; ✦ 13that you may give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit is dug for the wicked. ✦ 14For Yahweh won’t reject his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance. ✦ 15For judgment will return to righteousness. All the upright in heart shall follow it. ✦ 16Who will rise up for me against the wicked? Who will stand up for me against the evildoers? ✦ 17Unless Yahweh had been my help, my soul would have soon lived in silence. ✦ 18When I said, “My foot is slipping!” Your loving kindness, Yahweh, held me up. ✦ 19In the multitude of my thoughts within me, your comforts delight my soul. ✦ 20Shall the throne of wickedness have fellowship with you, which brings about mischief by statute? ✦ 21They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood. ✦ 22But Yahweh has been my high tower, my God, the rock of my refuge. ✦ 23He has brought on them their own iniquity, and will cut them off in their own wickedness. Yahweh, our God, will cut them off. ✦

Christ at the center

The Psalms are Christ's own prayer book and a gallery of his portraits — the suffering one of Psalm 22, the risen Lord of Psalm 16, the priest-king of Psalm 110, the Son to whom the nations are given.

How Psalms 94 points to him is part of the one story that runs through all Scripture — meet Jesus at the heart of the web, or follow a trail that traces him from Genesis to Revelation.
