⁴ Yahweh is righteous. He has cut apart the cords of the wicked.

¹⁵ Yahweh, the God of Israel, you are righteous; for we are left a remnant that is escaped, as it is this day: behold, we are before you in our guiltiness; for none can stand before you because of this.

³³ However you are just in all that is come on us; for you have dealt truly, but we have done wickedly;

¹³⁷ You are righteous, Yahweh. Your judgments are upright.

⁶ Blessed be Yahweh, Who has not given us as a prey to their teeth.

⁷ Our soul has escaped like a bird out of the fowler's snare. The snare is broken, and we have escaped.

⁵ The proud have hidden a snare for me, They have spread the cords of a net by the path. They have set traps for me. Selah.

⁶ I said to Yahweh, "You are my God." Listen to the cry of my petitions, Yahweh.

⁷ Yahweh, the Lord, the strength of my salvation, You have covered my head in the day of battle.

⁸ Yahweh, don't grant the desires of the wicked. Don't let their evil plans succeed, or they will become proud. Selah.

⁹ As for the head of those who surround me, Let the mischief of their own lips cover them.

¹⁰ Let burning coals fall on them. Let them be thrown into the fire, Into miry pits, from where they never rise.

¹¹ An evil speaker won't be established in the earth. Evil will hunt the violent man to overthrow him.

¹⁸ Yahweh is righteous; for I have rebelled against his commandment: Please hear all you peoples, and see my sorrow: My virgins and my young men are gone into captivity.

²² [It is of] Yahweh's loving kindnesses that we are not consumed, because his compassion doesn't fail.

⁷ Lord, righteousness belongs to you, but to us confusion of face, as at this day; to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to all Israel, who are near, and who are far off, through all the countries where you have driven them, because of their trespass that they have trespassed against you.
