Psalms 94:4

2 Rise up, O Judge of the earth; render a reward to the proud.

3 How long will the wicked, O LORD, how long will the wicked exult?

They pour out arrogant words; all workers of iniquity boast.

5 They crush Your people, O LORD; they oppress Your heritage.

6 They kill the widow and the foreigner; they murder the fatherless.

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
