Psalm 10:12-18

Revised Standard Version RSV

12 Arise, O LORD; O God, lift up thy hand; forget not the afflicted.

13 Why does the wicked renounce God, and say in his heart, "Thou wilt not call to account"?

14 Thou dost see; yea, thou dost note trouble and vexation, that thou mayest take it into thy hands; the hapless commits himself to thee; thou hast been the helper of the fatherless.

15 Break thou the arm of the wicked and evildoer; seek out his wickedness till thou find none.

16 The LORD is king for ever and ever; the nations shall perish from his land.

17 O LORD, thou wilt hear the desire of the meek; thou wilt strengthen their heart, thou wilt incline thy ear

18 to do justice to the fatherless and the oppressed, so that man who is of the earth may strike terror no more.

New International Version NIV

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.
