YLT - Psalms - 10

10:1  Why, Jehovah, dost Thou stand at a distance? Thou dost hide in times of adversity,

10:2  Through the pride of the wicked, Is the poor inflamed, They are caught in devices that they devised.

10:3  Because the wicked hath boasted Of the desire of his soul, And a dishonest gainer he hath blessed, He hath despised Jehovah.

10:4  The wicked according to the height of his face, inquireth not. `God is not!' are all his devices.

10:5  Pain do his ways at all times, On high are Thy judgments before him, All his adversaries--he puffeth at them.

10:6  He hath said in his heart, `I am not moved,' To generation and generation not in evil.

10:7  Of oaths his mouth is full, And deceits, and fraud: Under his tongue is perverseness and iniquity,

10:8  He doth sit in an ambush of the villages, In secret places he doth slay the innocent. His eyes for the afflicted watch secretly,

10:9  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.

10:10  He is bruised--he boweth down, Fallen by his mighty ones hath the afflicted.

10:11  He said in his heart, `God hath forgotten, He hath hid His face, He hath never seen.'

10:12  Arise, O Jehovah! O God, lift up Thy hand! Forget not the humble.

10:13  Wherefore hath the wicked despised God? He hath said in his heart, `It is not required.'

10:14  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.

10:15  Break the arm of the wicked and the evil, Seek out his wickedness, find none;

10:16  Jehovah is king to the age, and for ever, The nations have perished out of His land!

10:17  The desire of the humble Thou hast heard, O Jehovah. Thou preparest their heart; Thou causest Thine ear to attend,

10:18  To judge the fatherless and bruised: He addeth no more to oppress--man of the earth!
