Psalm 10

Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible RHE

1 (9-22) Why, O Lord, hast thou retired afar off? why dost thou slight us in our wants, in the time of trouble?

2 (9-23) Whilst the wicked man is proud, the poor is set on fire: they are caught in the counsels which they devise.

3 (9-24) For the sinner is praised in the desires of his soul: and the unjust man is blessed.

4 (9-25) The sinner hath provoked the Lord, according to the multitude of his wrath, he will not seek him:

5 (9-26) God is not before his eyes: his ways are filthy at all times. Thy judgments are removed form his sight: he shall rule over all his enemies.

6 (9-27) For he hath said in his heart: I shall not be moved from generation to generation, and shall be without evil.

7 (9-28) His mouth is full of cursing, and of bitterness, and of deceit: under his tongue are labour and sorrow.

8 (9-29) He sitteth in ambush with the rich, in private places, that he may kill the innocent.

9 (9-30) His eyes are upon the poor man: he lieth in wait, in secret, like a lion in his den. He lieth in ambush, that he may catch the poor man: so catch the poor, whilst he draweth him to him.

10 (9-31) In his net he will bring him down, he will crouch and fall, when he shall have power over the poor.

11 (9-32) For he hath said in his heart: God hath forgotten, he hath turned away his face, not to see to the end.

12 (9-33) Arise, O Lord God, let thy hand be exalted: forget not the poor.

13 (9-34) Wherefore hath the wicked provoked God? for he hath said in his heart: He will not require it.

14 (9-35) Thou seest it, for thou considerest labour and sorrow: that thou mayst deliver them into thy hands. To thee is the poor man left: thou wilt be a helper to the orphan.

15 (9-36) Break thou the arm of the sinner and of the malignant: his sin shall be sought, and shall not be found.

16 (9-37) The Lord shall reign to eternity, yea, for ever and ever: ye Gentiles shall perish from his land.

17 (9-38) The Lord hath heard the desire of the poor: thy ear hath heard the preparation of their heart.

18 (9-39) To judge for the fatherless and for the humble, that man may no more presume to magnify himself upon earth.

New Living Translation NLT

1 O LORD, why do you stand so far away? Why do you hide when I am in trouble?

2 The wicked arrogantly hunt down the poor. Let them be caught in the evil they plan for others.

3 For they brag about their evil desires; they praise the greedy and curse the LORD .

4 The wicked are too proud to seek God. They seem to think that God is dead.

5 Yet they succeed in everything they do. They do not see your punishment awaiting them. They sneer at all their enemies.

6 They think, “Nothing bad will ever happen to us! We will be free of trouble forever!”

7 Their mouths are full of cursing, lies, and threats. Trouble and evil are on the tips of their tongues.

8 They lurk in ambush in the villages, waiting to murder innocent people. They are always searching for helpless victims.

9 Like lions crouched in hiding, they wait to pounce on the helpless. Like hunters they capture the helpless and drag them away in nets.

10 Their helpless victims are crushed; they fall beneath the strength of the wicked.

11 The wicked think, “God isn’t watching us! He has closed his eyes and won’t even see what we do!”

12 Arise, O LORD ! Punish the wicked, O God! Do not ignore the helpless!

13 Why do the wicked get away with despising God? They think, “God will never call us to account.”

14 But you see the trouble and grief they cause. You take note of it and punish them. The helpless put their trust in you. You defend the orphans.

15 Break the arms of these wicked, evil people! Go after them until the last one is destroyed.

16 The LORD is king forever and ever! The godless nations will vanish from the land.

17 LORD, you know the hopes of the helpless. Surely you will hear their cries and comfort them.

18 You will bring justice to the orphans and the oppressed, so mere people can no longer terrify them.
