Psalm 10 :: Darby Translation (DBY)

Psa 10:1Why, Jehovah, standest thou afar off? Why hidest thou thyself in times of distress?
Psa 10:2The wicked, in his pride, doth hotly pursue the afflicted. They shall be taken in the devices that they have imagined.
Psa 10:3For the wicked boasteth of his soul's desire, and he blesseth the covetous; he contemneth Jehovah.
Psa 10:4The wicked saith, in the haughtiness of his countenance, He doth not search out: all his thoughts are, There is no God!
Psa 10:5His ways always succeed; thy judgments are far above out of his sight; as for all his adversaries, he puffeth at them.
Psa 10:6He saith in his heart, I shall not be moved; from generation to generation I shall be in no adversity.
Psa 10:7His mouth is full of cursing, and deceit, and oppression; under his tongue is mischief and iniquity.
Psa 10:8He sitteth in the lurking-places of the villages; in the secret places doth he slay the innocent: his eyes watch for the wretched.
Psa 10:9He lieth in wait secretly, like a lion in his thicket; he lieth in wait to catch the afflicted: he doth catch the afflicted, drawing him into his net.
Psa 10:10He croucheth, he boweth down, that the wretched may fall by his strong ones.
Psa 10:11He saith in his heart, God hath forgotten, he hideth his face, he will never see it.
Psa 10:12Arise, Jehovah; O God, lift up thy hand: forget not the afflicted.
Psa 10:13Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God? He hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require it.
Psa 10:14Thou hast seen it, for thou thyself beholdest trouble and vexation, to requite by thy hand. The wretched committeth himself unto thee; thou hast been the helper of the fatherless.
Psa 10:15Break thou the arm of the wicked, and as for the evil man, seek out his wickedness till thou find none.
Psa 10:16Jehovah is King for ever and ever: the nations have perished out of his land.
Psa 10:17Jehovah, thou hast heard the desire of the meek, thou hast established their heart: thou causest thine ear to hear,
Psa 10:18To do justice to the fatherless and the oppressed one, that the man of the earth may terrify no more.

In 1867, John Nelson Darby translated the New Testament from Greek into English. Further revisions were done in 1872 and 1884. Darby’s work was first published as The Holy Scriptures: A New Translation from the Original Languages by J. N. Darby. After Darby’s death in 1882, some of his students worked together to produce the complete Darby Bible based on the Masoretic Hebrew text, Darby’s German (Elberfelder), and the French (Pau) translations. In 1890, the first complete Darby Bible was published in English. This translation of the Bible is in the public domain.
