Psalm 17:2

New American Bible - revised edition

From you let my vindication come; your eyes see what is right.

See the chapter Copy

And make your righteousness shine like the dawn, your justice like noonday.

But the house of Israel says, “The Lord’s way is not fair!” Is it my way that is not fair, house of Israel? Is it not your ways that are not fair?

You say, “The Lord’s way is not fair!” Hear now, house of Israel: Is it my way that is unfair? Are not your ways unfair?

To the one who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you unblemished and exultant, in the presence of his glory,

But still you say, “The way of the Lord is not fair!” I will judge each of you according to your ways, house of Israel. The Survivor from Jerusalem.

Your people say, “The way of the Lord is not fair!” But it is their way that is not fair.

But the Lord does not abandon him in his power, nor let him be condemned when tried.
