Psalms 10:12-18

12Arise, O Lord; O God, 1lift up Your hand. 2Do not forget the afflicted.13Why has the wicked 3spurned God? He has said to himself, “You will not require it.”14You have seen it, for You have beheld 4mischief and vexation to 5take it into Your hand. The 6 7unfortunate commits himself to You; You have been the 8helper of the orphan.15 9Break the arm of the wicked and the evildoer, 10 11Seek out his wickedness until You find none.

16The Lord is 12King forever and ever; 13Nations have perished from His land.17O Lord, You have heard the 14desire of the 15humble; You will 16strengthen their heart, 17You will incline Your ear18To 18vindicate the 19orphan and the 20oppressed, So that man who is of the earth will no longer cause 21terror.
