25 Therefore, he knows their deeds,he overthrows them in the night and they are crushed.
26 He strikes them for their wickedness,in a place where people can see,
27 because they have turned away from following him,and have not understood any of his ways,
28 so that they caused the cry of the poorto come before him,so that he hears the cry of the needy.
29 But if God is quiet, who can condemn him?If he hides his face, then who can see him?Yet he is over the individual and the nation alike,
30 so that the godless man should not rule,and not lay snares for the people.
31 “Has anyone said to God,‘I have endured chastisement,but I will not act wrongly any more.
