Psalm 94:4-11
1599 Geneva Bible
4 They prate and speak fiercely: all the workers of iniquity vaunt themselves.
5 They [a]smite down thy people, O Lord, and trouble thine heritage.
6 They slay the widow and the stranger, and murder the fatherless.
7 [b]Yet they say, The Lord shall not see: neither will the God of Jacob regard it.
8 Understand, ye unwise among the people: and ye fools, when will ye be wise?
9 He that [c]planted the ear, shall he not hear? or he that formed the eye, shall he not see?
10 Or he that chastiseth the [d]nations, shall he not correct? he that teacheth man knowledge, shall he not know?
11 The Lord knoweth the thoughts of man, that they are vanity.
