Page 2 / 5 (Psa 10:2–Psa 97:10)
In arrogance the wicked relentlessly pursue their victims;
let them be caught in the schemes they have devised.
For the wicked one boasts about his own cravings;
the one who is greedy curses[fn] and despises the LORD.
In all his scheming,
the wicked person arrogantly thinks,[fn]
“There’s no accountability,
since there’s no God.”
Why has the wicked person despised God?
He says to himself, “You will not demand an account.”
Break the arm of the wicked, evil person,
until you look for his wickedness,
but it can’t be found.
“For look, the wicked string bows;
they put their arrows on bowstrings
to shoot from the shadows at the upright in heart.
Let him rain burning coals[fn] and sulfur on the wicked;
let a scorching wind be the portion in their cup.
Rise up, LORD!
Confront him; bring him down.
With your sword, save me from the wicked.
Do not drag me away with the wicked,
with the evildoers,
who speak in friendly ways with their neighbors
while malice is in their hearts.
Many pains come to the wicked,
but the one who trusts in the LORD
will have faithful love surrounding him.
An oracle within my heart
concerning the transgression of the wicked person:
Dread of God has no effect on him.[fn]
Do not let the foot of the arrogant come near me
or the hand of the wicked drive me away.
A little while, and the wicked person will be no more;
though you look for him, he will not be there.
The wicked have drawn the sword and strung the[fn] bow
to bring down the poor and needy
and to slaughter those whose way is upright.
The little that the righteous person has is better
than the abundance of many wicked people.
But the wicked will perish;
the LORD’s enemies, like the glory of the pastures,
will fade away —
they will fade away like smoke.
The wicked person borrows and does not repay,
but the righteous one is gracious and giving.
For the LORD loves justice
and will not abandon his faithful ones.
They are kept safe forever,
but the children of the wicked will be destroyed.
Wait for the LORD and keep his way,
and he will exalt you to inherit the land.
You will watch when the wicked are destroyed.
I have seen a wicked, violent person
well-rooted,[fn] like a flourishing native tree.
But transgressors will all be eliminated;
the future of the wicked will be destroyed.
The LORD helps and delivers them;
he will deliver them from the wicked and will save them
because they take refuge in him.
I said, “I will guard my ways
so that I may not sin with my tongue;
I will guard my mouth with a muzzle
as long as the wicked are in my presence.”
But God says to the wicked:
“What right do you have to recite my statutes
and to take my covenant on your lips?
The righteous one will rejoice
when he sees the retribution;
he will wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.
As smoke is blown away,
so you blow them away.
As wax melts before the fire,
so the wicked are destroyed before God.
Deliver me, my God, from the power of the wicked,
from the grasp of the unjust and oppressive.
For there is a cup in the LORD’s hand,
full of wine blended with spices, and he pours from it.
All the wicked of the earth will drink,
draining it to the dregs.
“I will cut off all the horns of the wicked,
but the horns of the righteous will be lifted up.”
though the wicked sprout like grass
and all evildoers flourish,
they will be eternally destroyed.
