1 Woe, you destroyer never destroyed,you traitor never betrayed!When you have finished destroying,you will be destroyed.When you have finished betraying,they will betray you.
2 Lord, be gracious to us! We wait for You. Be our strength every morningand our salvation in time of trouble.
3 The peoples flee at the thunderous noise; the nations scatter when You rise in Your majesty.
4 Your spoil will be gathered as locusts are gathered;people will swarm over it like an infestation of locusts.
5 The Lord is exalted, for He dwells on high;He has filled Zion with justice and righteousness.
6 There will be times of security for you —a storehouse of salvation, wisdom, and knowledge.The fear of the Lord is Zion’s treasure.
