20 Can unjust judges be your allies,
    those who create burdens by decree,
21 Those who conspire against the just
    and condemn the innocent to death?
22 No, the Lord is my secure height,
    my God, my rock of refuge,
23 (A)Who will turn back their evil upon them(B)
    and destroy them for their wickedness.
    Surely the Lord our God will destroy them!

20 Can a corrupt throne(A) be allied with you—
    a throne that brings on misery by its decrees?(B)
21 The wicked band together(C) against the righteous
    and condemn the innocent(D) to death.(E)
22 But the Lord has become my fortress,
    and my God the rock(F) in whom I take refuge.(G)
23 He will repay(H) them for their sins
    and destroy(I) them for their wickedness;
    the Lord our God will destroy them.

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

23 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.
