The faceof the LORDis against evildoers,To cutoffthe memoryof them from the earth.
"Memoryof him perishesfrom the earth,And he has nonameabroad.
"He does not withdrawHis eyesfrom the righteous;But with kingson the throneHe has seatedthem forever,and they are exalted.
The LORDis Kingforeverand ever;Nationshave perishedfrom His land.
Then the earthshookand quaked;And the foundationsof the mountainswere tremblingAnd were shaken,becauseHe was angry.
Behold,the eyeof the LORDis on those who fearHim, On those who hopefor His lovingkindness,
He who plantedthe ear,does He not hear?He who formedthe eye,does He not see?
The memoryof the righteousis blessed,But the nameof the wickedwill rot.
The LORDis farfrom the wicked,But He hearsthe prayerof the righteous.
