To the chief Musician, Al-tas\u2019-chith, Mich\u2019-tam of David.<\/p>\n
Merciful God, all judgment belongs to you. Give us the wisdom to perceive Christ in others, and to examine our own conduct; so that on the great and final day we may approach you not as severe judge, but as our Father, who loves us in Jesus Christ our Lord.<\/p>\n
1<\/sup>Do ye indeed speak righteousness, O congregation? do ye judge uprightly, O ye sons of men?<\/p>\n 2<\/sup>Yea, in heart ye work wickedness; ye weigh the violence of your hands in the earth.<\/p>\n 3<\/sup>The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they be born, speaking lies.<\/p>\n 4<\/sup>Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: they are like the deaf adder that stoppeth her ear;<\/p>\n 5<\/sup>Which will not hearken to the voice of charmers, charming never so wisely.<\/p>\n 6<\/sup>Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth: break out the great teeth of the young lions, O LORD.<\/p>\n 7<\/sup>Let them melt away as waters which run continually: when he bendeth his bow to shoot his arrows, let them be as cut in pieces.<\/p>\n 8<\/sup>As a snail which melteth, let every one of them pass away: like the untimely birth of a woman, that they may not see the sun.<\/p>\n 9<\/sup>Before your pots can feel the thorns, he shall take them away as with a whirlwind, both living, and in his wrath.<\/p>\n 10<\/sup>The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance: he shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.<\/p>\n 11<\/sup>So that a man shall say, Verily there is a reward for the righteous: verily he is a God that judgeth in the earth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" To the chief Musician, Al-tas\u2019-chith, Mich\u2019-tam of David.
