5 Although God is mighty,he cares about everyoneand makes fair decisions.
6 The wicked are cut down,and those who are wrongedreceive justice.
7 God watches over good peopleand places them in positionsof power and honor forever.
8 But when people are prisonersof suffering and pain,*
9 God points out their sinand their pride,
10 then he warns themto turn back to him.
11 And if they obey,they will be successfuland happy from then on.
