1 Why standest 5975 thou afar off 7350, O LORD 3068? why hidest 5956 thou thyself in times 6256 of trouble 6869?
2 The wicked 7563 in his pride 1346 doth persecute 1814 the poor 6041: let them be taken 8610 in the devices 4209 that 2098 they have imagined 2803.
3 For the wicked 7563 boasteth 1984 of his heart's 5315 desire 8378, and blesseth 1288 the covetous 1214, whom the LORD 3068 abhorreth 5006.
4 The wicked 7563, through the pride 1363 of his countenance 639, will not seek 1875 after God: God 430 is not in all his thoughts 4209.
5 His ways 1870 are always 6256 grievous 2342; thy judgments 4941 are far above 4791 out of his sight: as for all his enemies 6887, he puffeth 6315 at them.
6 He hath said 559 in his heart 3820, I shall not be moved 4131: for I shall never 1755 1755 be in adversity 7451.
7 His mouth 6310 is full 4390 of cursing 423 and deceit 4820 and fraud 8496: under his tongue 3956 is mischief 5999 and vanity 205.
8 He sitteth 3427 in the lurking places 3993 of the villages 2691: in the secret places 4565 doth he murder 2026 the innocent 5355: his eyes 5869 are privily set 6845 against the poor 2489.
9 He lieth in wait 693 secretly 4565 as a lion 738 in his den 5520: he lieth in wait 693 to catch 2414 the poor 6041: he doth catch 2414 the poor 6041, when he draweth 4900 him into his net 7568.
10 He croucheth 1794, and humbleth 7817 himself, that the poor 2426 2489 2489 may fall 5307 by his strong ones 6099.
11 He hath said 559 in his heart 3820, God 410 hath forgotten 7911: he hideth 5641 his face 6440; he will never 5331 see 7200 it.
12 Arise 6965, O LORD 3068; O God 410, lift up 5375 thine hand 3027: forget 7911 not the humble 6035 6041.
13 Wherefore doth the wicked 7563 contemn 5006 God 430? he hath said 559 in his heart 3820, Thou wilt not require 1875 it.
14 Thou hast seen 7200 it; for thou beholdest 5027 mischief 5999 and spite 3708, to requite 5414 it with thy hand 3027: the poor 2489 committeth 5800 himself unto thee; thou art the helper 5826 of the fatherless 3490.
15 Break 7665 thou the arm 2220 of the wicked 7563 and the evil 7451 man: seek out 1875 his wickedness 7562 till thou find 4672 none 1077.
16 The LORD 3068 is King 4428 for ever 5769 and ever 5703: the heathen 1471 are perished 6 out of his land 776.
17 LORD 3068, thou hast heard 8085 the desire 8378 of the humble 6035: thou wilt prepare 3559 their heart 3820, thou wilt cause thine ear 241 to hear 7181:
18 To judge 8199 the fatherless 3490 and the oppressed 1790, that the man 582 of the earth 776 may no more 3254 oppress 6206.
