Psalm 10
Good morning brothers and sisters. If you are reading this today and you have read everyday since we started this, congratulations, you have completed 10 days in the Bible. It doesn't matter that you don't understand it all, that will come. It matters that you are actively getting into God's Word. So with that let's complete day 10.
1- Why do You stand afar off, O Lord? Why do You hide in times of trouble?
2- The wicked in his pride persecutes the poor; let them be caught in the plots which they have devised.
3- For the wicked boasts of his heart's desire; he blesses the greedy and renounces the Lord.
4- The wicked in his proud countenance does not seek God; God is in none of this thoughts.
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 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 oppression; under his tongue is trouble and iniquity.
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 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- So he crouches, he lies low, that the helpless ay fall by his strength.
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 Your hand! Do not forget the humble.
13- Why do the wicked renounce God? He has said in his heart, " You will not require an account."
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 the arm of the wicked and the evil man; seek out his wickedness until You find none.
16- The Lord is King forever and ever, the nations have perished out of His land.
17- Lord, You have heard the desire of the humble; You will prepare their hearty; You will cause Your ear to hear;
18- To do justice to the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth may oppress no more.
Rise up children of God, rise up. If we would do so, we would truly see the mighty works of God.
Have a blessed day!
