| Psa 10:1 | Why standest thou afar off, O LORD? [why] hidest thou [thyself] in times of trouble? |
| Psa 10:2 | The wicked in [his] pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined. |
| Psa 10:3 | For the wicked boasteth of his heart's desire, and blesseth the covetous, [whom] the LORD abhorreth. |
| Psa 10:4 | The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek [after God]: God [is] not in all his thoughts. |
| Psa 10:5 | His ways are always grievous; thy judgments [are] far above out of his sight: [as for] all his enemies, he puffeth at them. |
| Psa 10:6 | He hath said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for [I shall] never [be] in adversity. |
| Psa 10:7 | His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud: under his tongue [is] mischief and vanity. |
| Psa 10:8 | He sitteth in the lurking places of the villages: in the secret places doth he murder the innocent: his eyes are privily set against the poor. |
| Psa 10:9 | He lieth in wait secretly as a lion in his den: he lieth in wait to catch the poor: he doth catch the poor, when he draweth him into his net. |
| Psa 10:10 | He croucheth, [and] humbleth himself, that the poor may fall by his strong ones. |
| Psa 10:11 | He hath said in his heart, God hath forgotten: he hideth his face; he will never see [it]. |
| Psa 10:12 | Arise, O LORD; O God, lift up thine hand: forget not the humble. |
| Psa 10:13 | Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God? he hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require [it]. |
| Psa 10:14 | Thou hast seen [it]; for thou beholdest mischief and spite, to requite [it] with thy hand: the poor committeth himself unto thee; thou art the helper of the fatherless. |
| Psa 10:15 | Break thou the arm of the wicked and the evil [man]: seek out his wickedness [till] thou find none. |
| Psa 10:16 | The LORD [is] King for ever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land. |
| Psa 10:17 | LORD, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear: |
| Psa 10:18 | To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth may no more oppress. |
