DRC, KJV, VulgClementine - Psalms - 10

10:1  Unto the end. A psalm to David.

10:1  Why standest thou afar off, O Lord? why hidest thou thyself in times of trouble?

10:1  In finem. Psalmus David.

10:2  In the Lord I put my trust: how then do you say to my soul: Get thee away from hence to the mountain, like a sparrow.

10:2  The wicked in his pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined.

10:2  In Domino confido ; quomodo dicitis animæ meæ : Transmigra in montem sicut passer ?

10:3  For, lo, the wicked have bent their bow: they have prepared their arrows in the quiver, to shoot in the dark the upright of heart.

10:3  For the wicked boasteth of his heart’s desire, and blesseth the covetous, whom the Lord abhorreth.

10:3  Quoniam ecce peccatores intenderunt arcum ; paraverunt sagittas suas in pharetra, ut sagittent in obscuro rectos corde :

10:4  For they have destroyed the things which thou hast made: but what has the just man done?

10:4  The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts.

10:4  quoniam quæ perfecisti destruxerunt ; justus autem, quid fecit ?

10:5  The Lord is in his holy temple, the Lord's throne is in heaven. His eyes look on the poor man: his eyelids examine the sons of men.

10:5  His ways are always grievous; thy judgments are far above out of his sight: as for all his enemies, he puffeth at them.

10:5  Dominus in templo sancto suo ; Dominus in cælo sedes ejus. Oculi ejus in pauperem respiciunt ; palpebræ ejus interrogant filios hominum.

10:6  The Lord trieth the just and the wicked: but he that loveth iniquity, hateth his own soul.

10:6  He hath said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for I shall never be in adversity.

10:6  Dominus interrogat justum et impium ; qui autem diligit iniquitatem, odit animam suam.

10:7  He shall rain snares upon sinners: fire and brimstone, and storms of winds, shall be the portion of their cup.

10:7  His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud: under his tongue is mischief and vanity.

10:7  Pluet super peccatores laqueos ; ignis et sulphur, et spiritus procellarum, pars calicis eorum.

10:8  For the Lord is just, and hath loved justice: his countenance hath beheld righteousness.

10:8  He sitteth in the lurking places of the villages: in the secret places doth he murder the innocent: his eyes are privily set against the poor.

10:8  Quoniam justus Dominus, et justitias dilexit : æquitatem vidit vultus ejus.

10:9  He lieth in wait secretly as a lion in his den: he lieth in wait to catch the poor: he doth catch the poor, when he draweth him into his net.

10:10  He croucheth, and humbleth himself, that the poor may fall by his strong ones.

10:11  He hath said in his heart, God hath forgotten: he hideth his face; he will never see it.

10:12  Arise, O Lord; O God, lift up thine hand: forget not the humble.

10:13  Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God? he hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require it.

10:14  Thou hast seen it; for thou beholdest mischief and spite, to requite it with thy hand: the poor committeth himself unto thee; thou art the helper of the fatherless.

10:15  Break thou the arm of the wicked and the evil man: seek out his wickedness till thou find none.

10:16  The Lord is King for ever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land.

10:17  Lord, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear:

10:18  To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth may no more oppress.
