Blessed is the man whom you discipline, O LORD, and whom you teach out of your law, to give him rest from days of trouble, until a pit is dug for the wicked. For the LORD will not forsake his people; he will not abandon his heritage; for justice will return to the righteous, and all the upright in heart will follow it.

Lord, I lift up those who suffer injustice: the unborn, the abused, the abandoned, the rejected, the addicted, and all who suffer at the hands of others. Do not forsake Your people, O Lord. Bring them into Your Kingdom.
