Context of Psalms 94:19

17If Jehovah had not been my help, my soul had almost dwelt in silence. 18When I said, My foot slippeth, thy loving-kindness, O Jehovah, held me up. In the multitude of my anxious thoughts within me thy comforts have delighted my soul. 20Shall the throne of wickedness be united to thee, which frameth mischief into a law? 21They band together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn innocent blood.
