12I have known that Jehovah doth execute The judgment of the afflicted, The judgment of the needy.

9 The chief of my surrounders, The perverseness of their lips covereth them.

10 They cause to fall on themselves burning coals, Into fire He doth cast them, Into deep pits — they arise not.

11 A talkative man is not established in the earth, One of violence — evil hunteth to overflowing.

12 I have known that Jehovah doth execute The judgment of the afflicted, The judgment of the needy.

13 Only — the righteous give thanks to Thy name, The upright do dwell with Thy presence!
