Psalms 10

Jubilee Bible 2000 JUB

1 Why dost thou stand afar off, O LORD? <em>Why</em> dost thou hide <em>thyself</em> in times of trouble?

2 The wicked in <em>his</em> pride persecutes the poor; let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined.

3 For the wicked boasts of his heart’s desire and blesses the covetous, <em>whom</em> the LORD abhors.

4 The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, does not seek <em>after God</em>: God <em>is</em> not in all his thoughts.

5 His ways are always grievous; thy judgments <em>are</em> far above out of his sight; <em>as for</em> all his enemies, he puffs at them.

6 He has said in his heart, I shall not be moved, for <em>I shall</em> never <em>be</em> in adversity.

7 His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud: under his tongue <em>is</em> mischief and vanity.

8 He sits in the lurking places of the villages: in the secret places he murders the innocent: his eyes are secretly set against the poor.

9 He lies in wait secretly as a lion in his den: he lies in wait to catch the poor: he catches the poor when he draws him into his net.

10 He crouches <em>and</em> hides himself, and many are those who fall under his power.

11 He has said in his heart, God has forgotten; he hides his face; he will never see <em>it</em>.

12 Arise, O LORD; O God, lift up thine hand; forget not the humble.

13 In what does the wicked irritate God? He has said in his heart, Thou wilt not require <em>accountability</em>.

14 Thou hast seen <em>it</em>, for thou dost behold mischief and spite to requite <em>it</em> with thy hand: the poor commits himself unto thee; thou art the helper of the fatherless.

15 Break thou the arm of the wicked and the evil <em>man</em>; seek out his wickedness <em>until</em> thou find none.

16 The LORD <em>is</em> King for ever and ever; the Gentiles are perished out of his land.

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

18 to judge the fatherless and the oppressed that the man of the earth may no longer oppress.

New International Version NIV

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

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

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

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

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

7 His mouth is full of lies and threats; trouble and evil are under his tongue.

8 He lies in wait near the villages; from ambush he murders the innocent. His eyes watch in secret for his victims;

9 like a lion in cover he lies in wait. He lies in wait to catch the helpless; he catches the helpless and drags them off in his net.

10 His victims are crushed, they collapse; they fall under his strength.

11 He says to himself, “God will never notice; he covers his face and never sees.”

12 Arise, LORD! Lift up your hand, O God. Do not forget the helpless.

13 Why does the wicked man revile God? Why does he say to himself, “He won’t call me to account”?

14 But you, God, see the trouble of the afflicted; you consider their grief and take it in hand. The victims commit themselves to you; you are the helper of the fatherless.

15 Break the arm of the wicked man; call the evildoer to account for his wickedness that would not otherwise be found out.

16 The LORD is King for ever and ever; the nations will perish from his land.

17 You, LORD, hear the desire of the afflicted; you encourage them, and you listen to their cry,

18 defending the fatherless and the oppressed, so that mere earthly mortals will never again strike terror.
