Psalm 10:1-3
Evangelical Heritage Version

Psalm 10

Break the Arm of the Wicked Man

An Opening Appeal for Action

1 Why, Lord, do you stand so far away?
Why do you hide in times of distress?

A Portrait of the Wicked

2 Because of the pride of the wicked, the oppressed burn.[a]
They are caught in the schemes that the wicked plan.
3 Yes, the wicked man boasts about his heart’s desires.
He blesses the robber. He despises the Lord.[b]
