The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment, for all them that are oppressed with wrong.

who helpeth them to right that suffer wrong; who feedeth the hungry. The LORD looseth men out of prison;

O spread forth thy loving-kindness unto them that know thee, and thy righteousness unto them that are true of heart.

And shall not God avenge his elect, which cry night and day unto him? Yea though he defer them:

{To the Chanter in Neginoth, a Psalm of David} Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness! Thou hast set me at liberty when I was in trouble; have mercy upon me, and hearken unto my prayer.

It is verily a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you,

Quicken me, O LORD, for thy name's sake; and for thy righteousness' sake bring my soul out of trouble.

Their delight shall be daily in thy name; and through thy righteousness they shall be exalted.

O LORD, and done wickedly against all thy righteousness: Yet let thy wrathful displeasure be turned away, I beseech thee, from thy city Jerusalem, thy holy hill. And why? For our sins' sake, and for the wickedness of our forefathers is Jerusalem and thy people abhorred, of all them that are about us.

I will bear the punishment of the LORD - For why? I have offended him - till he sit in judgment upon my cause, and see that I have right. He will bring me forth to the light, and I shall see his righteousness.

- whom God hath set forth for a mercy seat through faith in his blood, to show the righteousness which before him is of valour, in that he forgiveth the sins that are passed,
