Psalm 10:1-3
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

Psalm 10

Prayer for Deliverance from Enemies

1 Why, O Lord, do you stand far off?
    Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble?
2 In arrogance the wicked persecute the poor—
    let them be caught in the schemes they have devised.

3 For the wicked boast of the desires of their heart,
    those greedy for gain curse and renounce the Lord.
