Basic HTML Version
8
And he shall judge the world in righteousness, he shall minister judgment to the people in
uprightness.
9
The L
ORD
also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble.
10
And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, L
ORD
, hast not forsaken
them that seek thee.
11
Sing praises to the L
ORD
, which dwelleth in Zion: declare among the people his doings.
12
When he maketh inquisition for blood, he remembereth them: he forgetteth not the cry of
the humble.
13
Have mercy upon me, O L
ORD
; consider my trouble
which I suffer
of them that hate me,
thou that liftest me up from the gates of death:
14
That I may shew forth all thy praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion: I will rejoice in
thy salvation.
15
The heathen are sunk down in the pit
that
they made: in the net which they hid is their
own foot taken.
16
The L
ORD
is known
by
the judgment
which
he executeth: the wicked is snared in the work
of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah.
17
The wicked shall be turned into hell,
and
all the nations that forget God.
18
For the needy shall not alway be forgotten: the expectation of the poor shall
not
perish
for ever.
19
Arise, O L
ORD
; let not man prevail: let the heathen be judged in thy sight.
20
Put them in fear, O L
ORD
:
that
the nations may know themselves
to be but
men. Selah.
CHAPTER 10
Why standest thou afar off, O L
ORD
?
why
hidest thou
thyself
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.
3
For the wicked boasteth of his heart’s desire, and blesseth the covetous,
whom
the L
ORD
abhorreth.
4
The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek
after God:
God
is
not in
all 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.
6
He hath said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for
I shall
never
be
in adversity.
7
His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud: under his tongue
is
mischief and vanity.
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.
