Psalm 10 – Studienbibel

1 Why standest5975 thou afar off7350, O LORD3068? why hidest5956 thou thyself in times6256 of trouble6869? 2 The wicked7563 in his pride1346 doth persecute1814 the poor6041: let them be taken8610 in the devices4209 that2098 they have imagined2803.¹ 3 For the wicked7563 boasteth1984 of his heart's5315 desire8378, and blesseth1288 the covetous1214, whom the LORD3068 abhorreth5006.²³ 4 The wicked7563, through the pride1363 of his countenance639, will not seek1875 after God: God430 is not in all his thoughts4209.⁴ 5 His ways1870 are always6256 grievous2342; thy judgments4941 are far above4791 out of his sight: as for all his enemies6887, he puffeth6315 at them. 6 He hath said559 in his heart3820, I shall not be moved4131: for I shall never1755 1755 be in adversity7451.⁵ 7 His mouth6310 is full4390 of cursing423 and deceit4820 and fraud8496: under his tongue3956 is mischief5999 and vanity205.⁶⁷ [Röm 3,14] 8 He sitteth3427 in the lurking places3993 of the villages2691: in the secret places4565 doth he murder2026 the innocent5355: his eyes5869 are privily set6845 against the poor2489.⁸ 9 He lieth in wait693 secretly4565 as a lion738 in his den5520: he lieth in wait693 to catch2414 the poor6041: he doth catch2414 the poor6041, when he draweth4900 him into his net7568.⁹ 10 He croucheth1794, and humbleth7817 himself, that the poor2426 2489 2489 may fall5307 by his strong ones6099.¹⁰¹¹ 11 He hath said559 in his heart3820, God410 hath forgotten7911: he hideth5641 his face6440; he will never5331 see7200 it.

12 Arise6965, O LORD3068; O God410, lift up5375 thine hand3027: forget7911 not the humble6035 6041.¹² 13 Wherefore doth the wicked7563 contemn5006 God430? he hath said559 in his heart3820, Thou wilt not require1875 it. 14 Thou hast seen7200 it; for thou beholdest5027 mischief5999 and spite3708, to requite5414 it with thy hand3027: the poor2489 committeth5800 himself unto thee; thou art the helper5826 of the fatherless3490.¹³ 15 Break7665 thou the arm2220 of the wicked7563 and the evil7451 man: seek out1875 his wickedness7562 till thou find4672 none1077. 16 The LORD3068 is King4428 for ever5769 and ever5703: the heathen1471 are perished6 out of his land776. 17 LORD3068, thou hast heard8085 the desire8378 of the humble6035: thou wilt prepare3559 their heart3820, thou wilt cause thine ear241 to hear7181:¹⁴ 18 To judge8199 the fatherless3490 and the oppressed1790, that the man582 of the earth776 may no more3254 oppress6206.¹⁵
