Verse 8
"Jehovah ministereth judgment to the peoples.
Judge me, O Jehovah, according to my righteousness, and to mine integrity that is in me.
Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end, but establish thou the righteous:
For the righteous God trieth the minds and hearts."
In these two verses we have the universal hope and longing of the redeemed of all ages. The blessing of God upon the righteous and the cessation of wickedness are the ideals to be realized ultimately in that "new heaven and new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness." It does not seem to this author a reasonable expectation for our troubled and rebellious earth to attain such a status during the current dispensation.
