Context of Psalms 94:3
1Lord, God of vengeance, God of vengeance, shine forth! 2Rise up, Judge of the earth, Pay back retribution to the proud. How long, Lord, shall the wicked-- How long shall the wicked triumph? 4They pour out words, they speak arrogantly; All who do injustice boast. 5They crush Your people, Lord, And afflict Your inheritance.
