Context of Psalms 94:13
11The Lord knows what people think. He knows that their thoughts are empty. 12Lord, when you teach people what is right, you have really blessed them. You use your Law to teach them. When those people have troubles, you keep them safe. Then the wicked people fall into a deep hole that you have dug to catch them. 14The Lord will not leave his people alone. He will not forget to help the people that belong to him. 15Once again, judges will do what is right and fair, and good, honest people will agree.
