Psalms 10

1 Why? O Yahweh do you stand at a distance do you hide? to times of trouble.

2 In [the] pride of [the] wicked he hotly pursues [the] afflicted they are caught - by schemes which they have planned.

3 For he boasts a wicked [person] on [the] desire of self his and [one] greedy for unjust gain he blesses he spurns - Yahweh.

4 A wicked [person] according to [the] haughtiness of nose his not he seeks [are] there not [is] a god all thoughts his.

5 They endure (ways his *Qk) at every time [are] height judgments your from before him all opposers his he breathes out at them.

6 He says in heart his not I will be shaken to a generation and a generation who not in distress.

7 A curse mouth his it is full and deceit and oppression [are] under tongue his mischief and wickedness.

8 He sits - in an ambush of villages in hiding places he kills [the] innocent eyes his for an unfortunate person they lie hidden.

9 He lies in wait in hiding place - like a lion in lair its he lies in wait to seize [the] afflicted he seizes [the] afflicted when drags [him] away he in net his.

10 (He is crushed *QK) he is bowed down and he falls among mighty [ones] his (an army of disheartened [people]. *QK)

11 He says in heart his he has forgotten God he has hidden face his not he sees to perpetuity.

12 Arise! O Yahweh O God lift up hand your may not you forget (humble [people]. *QK)

13 Concerning what? - has he spurned [the] wicked - God has he said? in heart his not you will seek.

14 You have seen that you - mischief and vexation - you pay attention to put in hand your on you he abandons an unfortunate person [the] fatherless you - you are a helper.

15 Break [the] arm of [the] wicked and [the] evil you will seek wickedness his not you will find.

16 Yahweh [is] king forever and ever they have perished [the] nations from land his.

17 [the] desire of Humble [people] you have heard O Yahweh you establish heart their you cause to pay attention ear your.

18 To vindicate [the] fatherless and [the] oppressed not he will repeat again to terrify humankind from the earth.
