Psalms 10:1-6

1 Lord, why are you so far away? Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble?

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

2 An evil person is proud and hunts down those who are weak. He catches weak people by making clever plans.

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

3 He brags about what his heart longs for. He speaks well of those who always want more. He attacks the LORD with his words.

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

4 Because he is proud, that evil person doesn't turn to the Lord. There is no room for God in any of his thoughts.

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

5 Everything always goes well for him. So he is proud. He doesn't want to have anything to do with God's laws. He makes fun of all of his enemies.

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

6 He says to himself, "I will always be secure. I will always be happy. I'll never have any trouble."

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