1 Yahweh, you God to whom vengeance belongs, you God to whom vengeance belongs, shine out.
2 Rise up, you judge of the earth. Pay back the proud what they deserve.
3 Yahweh, how long will the wicked, how long will the wicked triumph?
4 They pour out arrogant words. All the evildoers boast.
5 They break your people in pieces, Yahweh, and afflict your heritage.
6 They kill the widow and the alien, and murder the fatherless.
