9  Oh, let the evil of the wicked come to an end,

and may you establish the righteous—

you who ^ltest the minds and hearts,¹

O righteous God!

10  “I the Lord search the heart

and ^dtest the mind,¹

^eto give every man according to his ways,

according to the fruit of his deeds.”

12  ^eO Lord of hosts, who tests the righteous,

who sees the heart and the mind,¹

let me see your vengeance upon them,

for to you have I committed my cause.
