14. For Jehovah will not cast off his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance;
15. For judgment shall return unto righteousness, and all the upright in heart shall follow it.
16. Who will rise up for me against the evil-doers? who will stand for me against the workers of iniquity?
17. If Jehovah had not been my help, my soul had almost dwelt in silence.
18. When I said, My foot slippeth, thy loving-kindness, O Jehovah, held me up.
19. In the multitude of my anxious thoughts within me thy comforts have delighted my soul.
20. Shall the throne of wickedness be united to thee, which frameth mischief into a law?
21. They band together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn innocent blood.
22. But Jehovah will be my high tower; and my God the rock of my refuge.
23. And he will bring upon them their iniquity, and will cut them off in their own evil: Jehovah our God will cut them off.
