Arise, O LORD, do not let man prevail; let the nations be judged before You. Put them in fear, O LORD; let the nations know that they are but men (9:19-20). Bring to justice those who are bent on taking innocent lives through their senseless acts of wickedness. You see their plots and evil schemes (10:14); may they not prosper but rather be caught in their own traps (9:16; 10:2). Convict those who are behind bars for their part in terrorism. Turn their hearts back to You.
Break the arm of the wicked and the evildoer, seek out his wickedness until You find none (10:15). Cut off the flow of funding for their diabolical schemes and break up all terrorists’ cells operating in secret places all over the world. Bring confusion in their camps. Give wisdom and courage to governments to act righteously and against regimes that support terrorism.
The wickedness of man has increased much over the years. But You, O God, are King forever and ever. Every man will have to stand in your presence one day to account for what he has done on earth. O LORD, You have heard the desire of the humble; You will strengthen their heart, You will incline Your ear to vindicate the orphan and the oppressed, so that man who is of the earth will no longer cause terror (10:17-18).
