“The righteous see it and are glad, And the innocent laugh at them:
Upright men are astonished at this, And the innocent stirs himself up against the hypocrite.
If the scourge slays suddenly, He laughs at the plight of the innocent.
The righteous see it and rejoice, And all iniquity stops its mouth.
Let Mount Zion rejoice, Let the daughters of Judah be glad, Because of Your judgments.
The righteous also shall see and fear, And shall laugh at him, saying,
The righteous shall rejoice when he sees the vengeance; He shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked,
The righteous shall be glad in the Lord, and trust in Him. And all the upright in heart shall glory.
Zion hears and is glad, And the daughters of Judah rejoice Because of Your judgments, O Lord.
When it goes well with the righteous, the city rejoices; And when the wicked perish, there is jubilation.
“Rejoice over her, O heaven, and you holy apostles and prophets, for God has avenged you on her!”
