Though the vicious can sometimes pour affliction upon the good, their power is transient and their punishment certain; and that innocence, though oppressed by injustice, shall, supported by patience, finally triumph over misfortune!
Ann Radcliffe, The Mysteries of Udolpho, 1764
58:11 \58:10\The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance: he shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked. 58:12 \58:11\So that a man shall say, Verily [there is] a reward for the righteous: verily he is a God that judgeth in the earth.
Psalms 58:10-11KJV
LAB comments: Of all people, our national leaders should be just and fair. When they are unjust and unfair, people suffer. The rich get richer, the poor get poorer, politicians wrest power from the people, national morality deteriorates, and God is ignored. When right triumphs at last,"the righteous shall rejoice". Be assured that there will be a day of accountability and that God judges fairly. Becareful never to side with injustice, lest you find yourself standing before an angry judge.
