Psalms 10 — Context

Why has the evil-doer a low opinion of God, saying in his heart, You will not make search for it?

You have seen it; for your eyes are on sorrow and grief, to take it into your hand: the poor man puts his faith in you; you have been the helper of the child who has no father.

Let the arm of the sinner and the evil-doer be broken; go on searching for his sin till there is no more.

The Lord is King for ever and ever; the nations are gone from his land.

Lord, you have given ear to the prayer of the poor: you will make strong their hearts, you will give them a hearing:

To give decision for the child without a father and for the broken-hearted, so that the man of the earth may no longer be feared.
