Psalms 10:1-6

1 God, are you avoiding me? Where are you when I need you?

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

2 Full of hot air, the wicked are hot on the trail of the poor. Trip them up, tangle them up in their fine-tuned plots.

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

3 The wicked are windbags, the swindlers have foul breath.

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

4 The wicked snub God, their noses stuck high in the air. Their graffiti are scrawled on the walls: "Catch us if you can!" "God is dead."

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

5 They care nothing for what you think; if you get in their way, they blow you off.

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

6 They live (they think) a charmed life: "We can't go wrong. This is our lucky year!"

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