Psalms 10:1-6

1 Why standest thou afar off, O Jehovah? Why hidest thou thyself in times of trouble?

1 Why, LORD, do you stand far off? Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble?

2 In the pride of the wicked the poor is hotly pursued; Let them be taken in the devices that they have conceived.

2 In his arrogance the wicked man hunts down the weak, who are caught in the schemes he devises.

3 For the wicked boasteth of his heart's desire, And the covetous renounceth, [yea], contemneth Jehovah.

3 He boasts about the cravings of his heart; he blesses the greedy and reviles the LORD.

4 The wicked, in the pride of his countenance, [saith], He will not require [it]. All his thoughts are, There is no God.

4 In his pride the wicked man does not seek him; in all his thoughts there is no room for God.

5 His ways are firm at all times; Thy judgments are far above out of his sight: As for all his adversaries, he puffeth at them.

5 His ways are always prosperous; your laws are rejected by him; he sneers at all his enemies.

6 He saith in his heart, I shall not be moved; To all generations I shall not be in adversity.

6 He says to himself, “Nothing will ever shake me.” He swears, “No one will ever do me harm.”
