Psalm 10 :: Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

A Prayer for the Overthrow of the Wicked.

Psa 10:1Why, Jehovah, dost Thou stand at a distance? Thou dost hide in times of adversity,

Psa 10:2Through the pride of the wicked, Is the poor inflamed, They are caught in devices that they devised.

Psa 10:3Because the wicked hath boasted Of the desire of his soul, And a dishonest gainer he hath blessed, He hath despised Jehovah.

Psa 10:4

Psa 10:4The wicked according to the height of his face, inquireth not. 'God is not!' are all his devices.

Psa 10:5

Psa 10:5Pain do his ways at all times, On high are Thy judgments before him, All his adversaries -- he puffeth at them.

Psa 10:6

Psa 10:6He hath said in his heart, 'I am not moved,' To generation and generation not in evil.

Psa 10:7

Psa 10:7Of oaths his mouth is full, And deceits, and fraud: Under his tongue is perverseness and iniquity,

Psa 10:8

Psa 10:8He doth sit in an ambush of the villages, In secret places he doth slay the innocent. His eyes for the afflicted watch secretly,

Psa 10:9

Psa 10:9He lieth in wait in a secret place, as a lion in a covert. He lieth in wait to catch the poor, He catcheth the poor, drawing him into his net.

Psa 10:10

Psa 10:10He is bruised -- he boweth down, Fallen by his mighty ones hath the afflicted.

Psa 10:11

Psa 10:11He said in his heart, 'God hath forgotten, He hath hid His face, He hath never seen.'

Psa 10:12

Psa 10:12Arise, O Jehovah! O God, lift up Thy hand! Forget not the humble.

Psa 10:13

Psa 10:13Wherefore hath the wicked despised God? He hath said in his heart, 'It is not required.'

Psa 10:14

Psa 10:14Thou hast seen, For Thou perverseness and anger beholdest; By giving into Thy hand, On Thee doth the afflicted leave it, Of the fatherless Thou hast been an helper.

Psa 10:15

Psa 10:15Break the arm of the wicked and the evil, Seek out his wickedness, find none;

Psa 10:16

Psa 10:16Jehovah is king to the age, and for ever, The nations have perished out of His land!

Psa 10:17

Psa 10:17The desire of the humble Thou hast heard, O Jehovah. Thou preparest their heart; Thou causest Thine ear to attend,

Psa 10:18

Psa 10:18To judge the fatherless and bruised: He addeth no more to oppress -- man of the earth!
