Chapter 10

1


 

  Why, Jehovah, dost Thou stand at a distance? Thou dost hide in times of adversity,  

 

 

--

2


 

  Through the pride of the wicked, Is the poor inflamed, They are caught in devices that they devised.  

 

 

--

3


 

  Because the wicked hath boasted Of the desire of his soul, And a dishonest gainer he hath blessed, He hath despised Jehovah.  

 

 

--

4


 

  The wicked according to the height of his face, inquireth not. 'God is not!' [are] all his devices.  

 

 

--

5


 

  Pain do his ways at all times, On high [are] Thy judgments before him, All his adversaries -- he puffeth at them.  

 

 

--

6


 

  He hath said in his heart, 'I am not moved,' To generation and generation not in evil.  

 

 

--

7


 

  Of oaths his mouth is full, And deceits, and fraud: Under his tongue [is] perverseness and iniquity,  

 

 

--

8


 

  He doth sit in an ambush of the villages, In secret places he doth slay the innocent. His eyes for the afflicted watch secretly,  

 

 

--

9


 

  He lieth in wait in a secret place, as a lion in a covert. He lieth in wait to catch the poor, He catcheth the poor, drawing him into his net.  

 

 

--

10


 

  He is bruised -- he boweth down, Fallen by his mighty ones hath the afflicted.  

 

 

--

11


 

  He said in his heart, 'God hath forgotten, He hath hid His face, He hath never seen.'  

 

 

--

12


 

  Arise, O Jehovah! O God, lift up Thy hand! Forget not the humble.  

 

 

--

13


 

  Wherefore hath the wicked despised God? He hath said in his heart, 'It is not required.'  

 

 

--

14


 

  Thou hast seen, For Thou perverseness and anger beholdest; By giving into Thy hand, On Thee doth the afflicted leave [it], Of the fatherless Thou hast been an helper.  

 

 

--

15


 

  Break the arm of the wicked and the evil, Seek out his wickedness, find none;  

 

 

--

16


 

  Jehovah [is] king to the age, and for ever, The nations have perished out of His land!  

 

 

--

17


 

  The desire of the humble Thou hast heard, O Jehovah. Thou preparest their heart; Thou causest Thine ear to attend,  

 

 

--

18


 

  To judge the fatherless and bruised: He addeth no more to oppress -- man of the earth!
