Why hidest Thou Thyself in times of trouble?10:2בְּגַאֲוַת רָשָׁע יִדְלַק עָנִי יִתָּפְשׂוּ ׀ בִּמְזִמּוֹת זוּ חָשָֽׁבוּ׃Through the pride of the wicked the poor is hotly pursued, they are taken in the devices that they have imagined.10:3כִּֽי־הִלֵּל רָשָׁע עַל־תַּאֲוַת נַפְשׁוֹ וּבֹצֵעַ בֵּרֵךְ נִאֵץ ׀ יְהוָֽה׃For the wicked boasteth of his heart's desire, and the covetous vaunteth himself, though he contemn the LORD.10:4רָשָׁע כְּגֹבַהּ אַפּוֹ בַּל־יִדְרֹשׁ אֵין אֱלֹהִים כָּל־מְזִמּוֹתָֽיו׃The wicked, in the pride of his countenance, saith: 'He will not require'; all his thoughts are: 'There is no God.'10:5יָחִילוּ דְרָכָיו ׀ בְּכָל־עֵת מָרוֹם מִשְׁפָּטֶיךָ מִנֶּגְדּוֹ כָּל־צוֹרְרָיו יָפִיחַ בָּהֶֽם׃His ways prosper at all times; Thy judgments are far above out of his sight; as for all his adversaries, he puffeth at them.10:6אָמַר בְּלִבּוֹ בַּל־אֶמּוֹט לְדֹר וָדֹר אֲשֶׁר לֹֽא־בְרָֽע׃He saith in his heart: 'I shall not be moved, I who to all generations shall not be in adversity.'10:7אָלָה פִּיהוּ מָלֵא וּמִרְמוֹת וָתֹךְ תַּחַת לְשׁוֹנוֹ עָמָל וָאָֽוֶן׃His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and oppression; under his tongue is mischief and iniquity.10:8יֵשֵׁב ׀ בְּמַאְרַב חֲצֵרִים בַּֽמִּסְתָּרִים יַהֲרֹג נָקִי עֵינָיו לְֽחֵלְכָה יִצְפֹּֽנוּ׃He sitteth in the lurking-places of the villages; in secret places doth he slay the innocent; his eyes are on the watch for the helpless.10:9יֶאֱרֹב בַּמִּסְתָּר ׀ כְּאַרְיֵה בְסֻכֹּה יֶאֱרֹב לַחֲטוֹף עָנִי יַחְטֹף עָנִי בְּמָשְׁכוֹ בְרִשְׁתּֽוֹ׃He lieth in wait in a secret place as a lion in his lair, he lieth in wait to catch the poor; he doth catch the poor, when he draweth him up in his net.10:10יִדְכֶּה יָשֹׁחַ וְנָפַל בַּעֲצוּמָיו חֵיל כָּאִֽים׃He croucheth, he boweth down, and the helpless fall into his mighty claws.10:11אָמַר בְּלִבּוֹ שָׁכַֽח אֵל הִסְתִּיר פָּנָיו בַּל־רָאָה לָנֶֽצַח׃He hath said in his heart: 'God hath forgotten; He hideth His face; He will never see.'10:12קוּמָה יְהוָה אֵל נְשָׂא יָדֶךָ אַל־תִּשְׁכַּח עֲנָוִֽים׃Arise, O LORD; O God, lift up Thy hand; forget not the humble.10:13עַל־מֶה ׀ נִאֵץ רָשָׁע ׀ אֱלֹהִים אָמַר בְּלִבּוֹ לֹא תִּדְרֹֽשׁ׃Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God, and say in his heart: 'Thou wilt not require'?10:14רָאִתָה כִּֽי־אַתָּה ׀ עָמָל וָכַעַס ׀ תַּבִּיט לָתֵת בְּיָדֶךָ עָלֶיךָ יַעֲזֹב חֵלֶכָה יָתוֹם אַתָּה ׀ הָיִיתָ עוֹזֵֽר׃Thou hast seen; for Thou beholdest trouble and vexation, to requite them with Thy hand; unto Thee the helpless committeth himself; Thou hast been the helper of the fatherless.10:15שְׁבֹר זְרוֹעַ רָשָׁע וָרָע תִּֽדְרוֹשׁ־רִשְׁעוֹ בַל־תִּמְצָֽא׃Break Thou the arm of the wicked; and as for the evil man, search out his wickedness, till none be found.10:16יְהוָה מֶלֶךְ עוֹלָם וָעֶד אָבְדוּ גוֹיִם מֵֽאַרְצֽוֹ׃The LORD is King for ever and ever; the nations are perished out of His land.10:17תַּאֲוַת עֲנָוִים שָׁמַעְתָּ יְהוָה תָּכִין לִבָּם תַּקְשִׁיב אָזְנֶֽךָ׃LORD, Thou hast heard the desire of the humble: Thou wilt direct their heart, Thou wilt cause Thine ear to attend;10:18לִשְׁפֹּט יָתוֹם וָדָךְ בַּל־יוֹסִיף עוֹד לַעֲרֹץ אֱנוֹשׁ מִן־הָאָֽרֶץ׃To right the fatherless and the oppressed, that man who is of the earth may be terrible no more.← previousPsalms 9next →Psalms 11↑ back to PsalmsThis page in Markdown → https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/PSA/10/
