A prayer for help[a]

10 Must you stand so far away, Lord?
    Why do you hide when there is trouble?
Wicked people are cruel to poor people.
They use their evil ideas
    to take hold of weak people.
Not only do wicked people boast
    because they get the things that they want.
They also praise robbers,
    and they curse the Lord.
