RNKJV - Psalms - 10

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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.

10:9  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, El hath forgotten: he hideth his face; he will never see it.

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

10:13  Wherefore doth the wicked contemn Elohim? 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  יהוה is King for ever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land.

10:17  יהוה, 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.
