Psalms 94:9–13 · Berean Standard Bible

9 He who affixed the ear, can He not hear? He who formed the eye, can He not see?

10 He who admonishes the nations, does He not discipline? He who teaches man, does He lack knowledge?

11 The LORD knows the thoughts of man, that they are futile.

12 Blessed is the man You discipline, O LORD, and teach from Your law,

13 to grant him relief from days of trouble, until a pit is dug for the wicked.
