Psalms 94:16-22
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 94
16Who will stand up for me against evildoers? Who will take his stand for me against those who do injustice? 17If the Lord had not been my help, My soul would soon have dwelt in the land of silence. 18If I should say, 'My foot has slipped,' Your faithfulness, Lord, will support me. 19When my anxious thoughts multiply within me, Your comfort delights my soul. 20Can a throne of destruction be allied with You, One which devises mischief by decree? 21They band themselves together against the life of the righteous And condemn the innocent to death. 22But the Lord has been my refuge, And my God the rock of my refuge.King James Version
Chapter 94
16Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? or who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity? 17Unless the LORD had been my help, my soul had almost dwelt in silence. 18When I said, My foot slippeth; thy mercy, O LORD, held me up. 19In the multitude of my thoughts within me thy comforts delight my soul. 20Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with thee, which frameth mischief by a law? 21They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood. 22But the LORD is my defence; and my God is the rock of my refuge.Christian Standard Bible
New Living Translation
Chapter 94
16Who will protect me from the wicked? Who will stand up for me against evildoers? 17Unless the Lord had helped me, I would soon have settled in the silence of the grave. 18I cried out, 'I am slipping!' but your unfailing love, O Lord, supported me. 19When doubts filled my mind, your comfort gave me renewed hope and cheer.English Standard Version
Chapter 94
16Who rises up for me against the wicked? Who stands up for me against evildoers? 17If the LORD had not been my help, my soul would soon have lived in the land of silence. 18When I thought, “My foot slips,” your steadfast love, O LORD, held me up. 19When the cares of my heart are many, your consolations cheer my soul. 20Can wicked rulers be allied with you, those who frame injustice by statute? 21They band together against the life of the righteous and condemn the innocent to death. 22But the LORD has become my stronghold, and my God the rock of my refuge.New International Version
Chapter 94
16Who will rise up for me against the wicked? Who will take a stand for me against evildoers? 17Unless the LORD had given me help, I would soon have dwelt in the silence of death. 18When I said, 'My foot is slipping,' your unfailing love, LORD, supported me.
19When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy.
20Can a corrupt throne be allied with you-- a throne that brings on misery by its decrees?
21The wicked band together against the righteous and condemn the innocent to death.
22But the LORD has become my fortress, and my God the rock in whom I take refuge.
New King James Version
