1
Why standest thou afar off, O LORD? why hidest thou thyself in times of trouble?
1
Why do You stand afar off, O LORD? [Why] do You hide in times of trouble?
2
The wicked in his pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined.
2
The wicked in [his] pride persecutes the poor; Let them be caught in the plots which they have devised.
3
For the wicked boasteth of his heart's desire, and blesseth the covetous, whom the LORD abhorreth.
3
For the wicked boasts of his heart's desire; He blesses the greedy [and] renounces the LORD.
4
The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts.
4
The wicked in his proud countenance does not seek [God;] God [is] in none of his thoughts.
5
His ways are always grievous; thy judgments are far above out of his sight: as for all his enemies, he puffeth at them.
5
His ways are always prospering; Your judgments [are] far above, out of his sight; [As for] all his enemies, he sneers at them.
6
He hath said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for I shall never be in adversity.
6
He has said in his heart, "I shall not be moved; I shall never be in adversity."
7
His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud: under his tongue is mischief and vanity.
7
His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and oppression; Under his tongue [is] trouble and iniquity.
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.
8
He sits in the lurking places of the villages; In the secret places he murders the innocent; His eyes are secretly fixed on the helpless.
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.
9
He lies in wait secretly, as a lion in his den; He lies in wait to catch the poor; He catches the poor when he draws him into his net.
10
He croucheth, and humbleth himself, that the poor may fall by his strong ones.
10
So he crouches, he lies low, That the helpless may fall by his strength.
11
He hath said in his heart, God hath forgotten: he hideth his face; he will never see it.
11
He has said in his heart, "God has forgotten; He hides His face; He will never see."
12
Arise, O LORD; O God, lift up thine hand: forget not the humble.
12
Arise, O LORD! O God, lift up Your hand! Do not forget the humble.
13
Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God? he hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require it.
13
Why do the wicked renounce God? He has said in his heart, "You will not require [an account."]
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.
14
But You have seen, for You observe trouble and grief, To repay [it] by Your hand. The helpless commits himself to You; You are the helper of the fatherless.
15
Break thou the arm of the wicked and the evil man: seek out his wickedness till thou find none.
15
Break the arm of the wicked and the evil [man;] Seek out his wickedness [until] You find none.
16
The LORD is King for ever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land.
16
The LORD [is] King forever and ever; The nations have perished out of His land.
17
LORD, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear:
17
LORD, You have heard the desire of the humble; You will prepare their heart; You will cause Your ear to hear,
18
To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth may no more oppress.
18
To do justice to the fatherless and the oppressed, That the man of the earth may oppress no more.
