Psalm 9:8-13
8 But the Lord remains in eternity. He has prepared his throne in judgment. 9 And he will judge the whole world in equity. He will judge the people in justice. 10 And the Lord has become a refuge for the poor, a helper in opportunity, in tribulation. 11 And may they hope in you, who know your name. For you have not abandoned those seeking you, Lord. 12 Sing a psalm to the Lord, who dwells in Zion. Announce his study among the Gentiles. 13 Because of those who yearned for their blood, he has remembered them. He has not forgotten the cry of the poor. Habakkuk 1:12--2:4 12 Have you not existed from the beginning, Lord my God, my holy one, and so we shall not die? Lord, you have stationed him for judgment, and you have establish that his strength will be swept away. 13 Your eyes are pure, you do not behold evil, and you cannot look towards iniquity. Why do you look upon the agents of iniquity, and remain silent, while the impious is devouring one who is more just than himself? 14 And you will make men like the fish of the sea and like the creeping things that have no ruler. 15 He lifted up everything with his hook. He drew them in with his dragnet, and gathered them into his netting. Over this, he will rejoice and exult. 16 For this reason, he will offer victims to his dragnet, and he will sacrifice to his netting. For through them, his portion has been made fat, and his meals elite. 17 Because of this, therefore, he expands his dragnet and will not be lenient in continually putting to death the peoples. 1 I will stand firm during my watch, and fix my position over the fortification. And I will observe carefully, to see what might be said to me and what I might respond to my opponent. 2 And the Lord responded to me and said: Write the vision and explain it on tablets, so that he who reads it may run through it. 3 For as yet the vision is far off, and it will appear in the end, and it will not lie. If it expresses any delay, wait for it. For it is arriving and it will arrive, and it will not be hindered. 4 Behold, he who is unbelieving, his soul will not be right within himself; but he who is just shall live in his faith.
