Psalms On The Ungodly And Their Success

Money may make you somebody

But G-d will still be your judge despite all your accomplishments

Behind every action truth will be uncovered. With G-d you can never hide your motives and intentions.

Seek G-d’s presence; not people’s praises with your wealth or achievement that has nothing to do with G-d.

“The Success Of The Wicked”

I will thank Hashem with all my heart, I will proclaim all Your wondrous deeds.
9:2
I will rejoice and exult in You, I will sing praise to Your Name, Most High.
9:3
… You sat on the throne, O righteous Judge,
:7
For Hashem is enthroned forever, He prepares His throne for judgment.
:8
And He will judge the world in righteousness, He will judge regimes with fairness,
:9
Hashem will be a fortress for the oppressed, a fortress in times of distress.
:10
And those who know Your Name will trust in You, for You have not forsaken those who seek You, Hashem.
:11
… He has not forgotten the cry of the humble.
:13
The wicked will return to the depths of the grave, all the nations that forget God;
:18
for the pauper shall not be forgotten eternally, nor the hope of the afflicted forever perish.
:19
Arise, Hashem, let not frail man feel invincible! …
:20
Hashem, place [Your] mastery over them, that the peoples may know they are but frail men, Selah!
:21

1 To the conductor, to brighten the youth, a song of David.
2 I will thank the Lord with all my heart; I will tell all Your wonders.
3 I will rejoice and exult with You; I will sing praises to Your most high name.
4 When my enemies draw backward, they stumble and are destroyed from before You.
5 For You have performed my judgment and my cause; You sat on the throne, O Judge of righteousness.
6 You rebuked nations, You destroyed a wicked man; You erased their name forever and ever.
7 The enemy has been destroyed; swords exist forever, and You have uprooted the cities-their remembrance is lost.
8 But the Lord shall sit forever; He has established His throne for judgment.
9 But He judges the world with righteousness, kingdoms with equity.
10 And the Lord shall be a fortress for the crushed, a fortress for times of distress.
11 And those who know Your name shall trust in You, for You have not forsaken those who seek You, O Lord.
12 Sing praises to the Lord, Who dwells in Zion; relate His deeds among the peoples.
13 For He Who avenges blood remembers them; He has not forgotten the cry of the humble.
14 Be gracious to me, O Lord, see my affliction from my enemies, You Who raise me up from the gates of death,
15 in order that I tell all Your praises; in the gates of the daughter of Zion I will rejoice in Your salvation.
16 Nations have sunk in the pit they have made; in this net that they have concealed, their foot has become trapped.
17 The Lord is known for the judgment that He performed; with the act of His hand, the wicked man stumbles. Let us meditate over this forever.
18 May the wicked return to the grave, all nations who forget God.
19 For the needy shall not be forgotten forever, neither shall the hope of the poor be lost to eternity.
20 Arise, O Lord; let man have no power. May the nations be judged for Your anger.
21 O Lord, place mastery over them; let the nations know that they forever are mortal man.
