The LORD is king forever and ever; the nations perish from his land. O LORD, you hear the desire of the afflicted; you will strengthen their heart; you will incline your ear to do justice to the fatherless and the oppressed, so that man who is of the earth may strike terror no more.

Lord, Your justice reigns. There are no hidden places for the evil One and his minions to escape Your hand of retribution, all is and will be set to conform to Your righteousness, all will adhere to Your Law and obey You or suffer forever in the pits of Sheol. Your people will rejoice in the glory of Your presence and in the purity of the Kingdom of Heaven fully realized on the new earth.
