⁸ You found ^(A)his heart faithful before You,
And made a covenant with him
To give him the land of the Canaanite,
Of the Hittite and the Amorite,
Of the Perizzite, the Jebusite, and the Girgashite—
To give it to his ^[a]descendants.
And You ^(B)have fulfilled Your ^[b]promise,
Because You are righteous.

^137 (A)You are righteous, Lord,
And Your judgments are right.

12 ^(A)Righteous are You, Lord, when I plead my case with You;
Nevertheless I would ^(B)discuss matters of justice with You:
Why has the ^(C)way of the wicked prospered?
Why are all those who ^(D)deal in treachery at ease?
