Do Ye, O Men, Speak Righteousness

Verse 1

Do you, O men, speak righteousness And upright judgment seek? No, in your hearts is wickedness, And in your hands deceit.

Verse 2

The wicked, from their earliest days, In sin are gone astray, With errant heart, in foolish pride, From wisdom turned away.

Verse 3

The God of vengeance will destroy The wicked from His sight; The LORD will bring to nought their pow'r, And scatter all their might.

Verse 4

The good shall triumph and rejoice, And this shall be confessed; On earth the God of justice reigns, And righteousness is blessed.
