Psalm 122 - Psalms of Steel by Robert Dean Steel

Lord how terrible the ways and ends of the wicked.
Misery and personal misfortune awaits them.
Wickedness is like barbs in the eyes and thorns in the flesh.
The wicked follow the idols of the land.
The folly of pride, passion and possessions.

The evil man is full of apostasy and hatred.
The things of God he ridicules, mocks and slanders.
They will try to trap and cause the righteous to stumble.
They delight if they are successful and curse if they do not.
Lord you see their hears let them fail.

The unrighteous will answer for their sin.
Your anger, wrath and judgment await them.
Their thoughts, words and deeds cause their parents shame.
They deny the one who brings them salvation.
They will die in their sin if they do not repent.

All the wicked do is for self glory and fulfillment.
Even their acts of charity and love is motivated by self.
They love the praise of others.
They are defiled and defile all they know.
Lord do not let them prosper but fail.
