Psalm 94

O Lord God, to whom vengeance belongeth; O God, to whom vengeance belongeth, shew thyself.

 Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth: render a reward to the proud.

 Lord, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked triumph?

 How long shall they utter and speak hard things? and all the workers of iniquity boast themselves?

 They break in pieces thy people, O Lord, and afflict thine heritage.

 They slay the widow and the stranger, and murder the fatherless.

 Yet they say, The Lord shall not see, neither shall the God of Jacob regard it.

 Understand, ye brutish among the people: and ye fools, when will ye be wise?

 He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? he that formed the eye, shall he not see?

 He that chastiseth the heathen, shall not he correct? he that teacheth man knowledge, shall not he know?

 The Lord knoweth the thoughts of man, that they are vanity.

 Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O Lord, and teachest him out of thy law;

 That thou mayest give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit be digged for the wicked.

 For the Lord will not cast off his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.

 But judgment shall return unto righteousness: and all the upright in heart shall follow it.

 Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? or who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?

 Unless the Lord had been my help, my soul had almost dwelt in silence.

 When I said, My foot slippeth; thy mercy, O Lord, held me up.

 In the multitude of my thoughts within me thy comforts delight my soul.

 Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with thee, which frameth mischief by a law?

 They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood.

 But the Lord is my defence; and my God is the rock of my refuge.

 And he shall bring upon them their own iniquity, and shall cut them off in their own wickedness; yea, the Lord our God shall cut them off.

רַבִּי חִיָּיא בַּר אַבָּא חֲלַשׁ. עָל לְגַבֵּיהּ רַבִּי יוֹחָנָן אֲמַר לֵיהּ: חֲבִיבִין עָלֶיךָ יִסּוּרִין? אֲמַר לֵיהּ: לֹא הֵן וְלֹא שְׂכָרָן. אֲמַר לֵיהּ: הַב לִי יְדָךְ. יְהַב לֵיהּ יְדֵיהּ, וְאוֹקְמֵיהּ.

 

The Gemara continues to address the issue of suffering and affliction: Rabbi Yoḥanan’s student, Rabbi Ḥiyya bar Abba, fell ill. Rabbi Yoḥanan entered to visit him, and said to him: Is your suffering dear to you? Do you desire to be ill and afflicted? Rabbi Ḥiyya said to him: I welcome neither this suffering nor its reward, as one who welcomes this suffering with love is rewarded. Rabbi Yoḥanan said to him: Give me your hand. Rabbi Ḥiyya bar Abba gave him his hand, and Rabbi Yoḥanan stood him up and restored him to health.

רַבִּי יוֹחָנָן חֲלַשׁ. עָל לְגַבֵּיהּ רַבִּי חֲנִינָא. אֲמַר לֵיהּ: חֲבִיבִין עָלֶיךָ יִסּוּרִין? אֲמַר לֵיהּ: לֹא הֵן וְלֹא שְׂכָרָן. אֲמַר לֵיהּ: הַב לִי יְדָךְ. יְהַב לֵיהּ יְדֵיהּ, וְאוֹקְמֵיהּ.

 

Similarly, Rabbi Yoḥanan fell ill. Rabbi Ḥanina entered to visit him, and said to him: Is your suffering dear to you? Rabbi Yoḥanan said to him: I welcome neither this suffering nor its reward. Rabbi Ḥanina said to him: Give me your hand. He gave him his hand, and Rabbi Ḥanina stood him up and restored him to health.

אַמַּאי, לוֹקִים רַבִּי יוֹחָנָן לְנַפְשֵׁיהּ?

 

The Gemara asks: Why did Rabbi Yoḥanan wait for Rabbi Ḥanina to restore him to health? If he was able to heal his student, let Rabbi Yoḥanan stand himself up.

אָמְרִי: אֵין חָבוּשׁ מַתִּיר עַצְמוֹ מִבֵּית הָאֲסוּרִים.

 

The Gemara answers, they say: A prisoner cannot generally free himself from prison, but depends on others to release him from his shackles.

Thus [God] will judge among the many peoples,
And arbitrate for the multitude of nations,
However distant;
And they shall beat their swords into plowshares
And their spears into pruning hooks.
Nation shall not take up
Sword against nation;
They shall never again know war;

Under its own vine and fig tree
With no one to disturb them.

Each in the names of its gods,

My morning and evening prayers I lay before You


Before Your greatness I stand in fright


for Your eyes can see into the thoughts of my heart


What is this that the heart and tongue can


bring about, and what is the strength of my spirit within me?

Behold the singing of man will be pleasant to You, therefore

I thank You while the soul of God is within me
