1
O LORD God, to whom vengeance belongeth; O God, to whom vengeance belongeth, shew thyself.
O HERE God, aan wie die wraak behoort; o God, aan wie die wraak behoort, skyn voort.

King James Version
AFR DVK
2
Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth: render a reward to the proud.
Verhef U, U Regter van die aarde: gee ‚'n beloning aan die trotses.
3
LORD, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked triumph?
HERE, hoe lank sal die goddelose, hoe lank sal die goddelose juig?
4
[How long] shall they utter [and] speak hard things? [and] all the workers of iniquity boast themselves?
Hoe lank sal hulle uitspreek en harde dinge spreek? en al die werkers van ongeregtigheid roem?
5
They break in pieces thy people, O LORD, and afflict thine heritage.
Hulle breek u volk stukkend, o HERE, en teister u erfenis.
6
They slay the widow and the stranger, and murder the fatherless.
Hulle dood die weduwee en die vreemdeling, en dood die wees.
7
Yet they say, The LORD shall not see, neither shall the God of Jacob regard [it].
Tog sê hulle, Die HERE sal dit nie sien nie, en die God van Jakob sal dit nie ag nie.
8
Understand, ye brutish among the people: and [ye] fools, when will ye be wise?
Verstaan, julle onverstandiges onder die volk: en julle dwase, wanneer sal julle wys wees?
9
He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? he that formed the eye, shall he not see?
Hy wat die oor geplant het, sal Hy nie hoor nie? Hy wat die oog gevorm het, sal Hy nie sien nie?
10
He that chastiseth the heathen, shall not he correct? he that teacheth man knowledge, [shall not he know]?
Hy wat die heidene tugtig, sal Hy nie berispe nie? Hy wat die mens kennis leer, sal Hy nie weet nie?
11
The LORD knoweth the thoughts of man, that they [are] vanity.
Die HERE ken die gedagtes van die mens, dat hulle ydelheid is.
12
Blessed [is] the man whom thou chastenest, O LORD, and teachest him out of thy law;
Gelukkig is die man wat U tugtig, o HERE, en hom uit u wet leer;
13
That thou mayest give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit be digged for the wicked.
Dat U hom rus mag gee van die dae van teenspoed, totdat die put vir die goddelose gegrawe word.
14
For the LORD will not cast off his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.
Want die HERE sal sy volk nie verwerp nie, en sy erfenis nie verlaat nie.
15
But judgment shall return unto righteousness: and all the upright in heart shall follow it.
Maar die oordeel sal terugkeer tot geregtigheid: en al die opregte van hart sal dit volg.
16
Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? [or] who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?
Wie sal vir my opstaan teen die kwaaddoeners? of wie sal vir my staan teen die werkers van ongeregtigheid?
17
Unless the LORD [had been] my help, my soul had almost dwelt in silence.
As die HERE nie my hulp was nie, sou my siel byna in stilte gewoon het.
18
When I said, My foot slippeth; thy mercy, O LORD, held me up.
Toe ek gesê het, My voet gly; het u barmhartigheid, o HERE, my ondersteun.
19
In the multitude of my thoughts within me thy comforts delight my soul.
In die menigte van my gedagtes binne-in my, het u vertroostinge my siel verkwik.
20
Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with thee, which frameth mischief by a law?
Sal die troon van ongeregtigheid gemeenskap met U hê, wat moeite deur ’n wet bedink?
21
They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood.
Hulle versamel hulleself teen die siel van die regverdige, en veroordeel die onskuldige bloed.
22
But the LORD is my defence; and my God [is] the rock of my refuge.
Maar die HERE is my verdediging; en my God is die rots van my toevlug.
23
And he shall bring upon them their own iniquity, and shall cut them off in their own wickedness; [yea], the LORD our God shall cut them off.
En Hy sal hulle eie ongeregtigheid op hulle bring, en hulle in hulle eie goddeloosheid afsny; ja, die HERE onse God sal hulle afsny.
