11 Yahweh knows the thoughts of humankind, that they are to no purpose.
12 Blessed is the man, O Yah, whom you instruct and teach from your law,
13 to give him rest from days of trouble, until a pit is dug for the wicked.
14 For Yahweh will not abandon his people, nor forsake his inheritance.
15 For judgment will return to righteousness, and all the upright in heart will follow after it.
16 Who rose up for me against the wicked? Who stood up for me against the workers of iniquity?
17 If Yahweh had not been my help, my soul would soon have dwelt in silence.
