Verse 12 is found in chapter 94 of Psalms. Psalm 94 is a plea against the arrogance of those who oppress and believe God does not observe their actions. The psalmist invokes the God of justice and asks how long the wicked will prosper. A wisdom section recalls that God disciplines and teaches human beings, while personal experience of anguish demonstrates that his comfort sustains. The conclusion affirms that the Lord will be a refuge and will cause the wicked to bear their own iniquity.

Wohl dem, den du, HERR, züchtigst und lehrst ihn durch dein Gesetz,
Bienaventurado el hombre a quien tú, JAH, castigares, Y en tu ley lo instruyeres;
Dichoso el hombre a quien corriges, Jah, y a quien instruyes en tu ley,
Heureux l'homme que tu châties, ô Eternel! Et que tu instruis par ta loi,
Beato l’uomo il qual tu correggi, Signore, Ed ammaestri per la tua Legge;
Bem-aventurado é o homem a quem tu castigas, ó SENHOR, e a quem ensinas a tua lei;
耶和華啊,你所管教、 用律法教導的人有福了!
