Psalms 10
1 Why standest thou farre off, O Lord, and hidest thee in due time, euen in affliction?
| לָמָה יְהֹוָה תַּֽעֲמֹד בְּרָחוֹק תַּעְלִים לְעִתּוֹת בַּצָּרָֽה׃ |
2 The wicked with pride doeth persecute the poore: let them be taken in the craftes that they haue imagined.
| בְּגַאֲוַת רָשָׁע יִדְלַק עָנִי יִתָּֽפְשׂוּ ׀ בִּמְזִמּוֹת זוּ חָשָֽׁבוּ׃ |
3 For the wicked hath made boast of his owne heartes desire, and the couetous blesseth himselfe: he contemneth the Lord.
| כִּֽי־הִלֵּל רָשָׁע עַל־תַּאֲוַת נַפְשׁוֹ וּבֹצֵעַ בֵּרֵךְ נִאֵץ ׀ יְהֹוָֽה׃ |
4 The wicked is so proude that hee seeketh not for God: hee thinketh alwayes, There is no God.
| רָשָׁע כְּגֹבַהּ אַפּוֹ בַּל־יִדְרֹשׁ אֵין אֱלֹהִים כׇּל־מְזִמּוֹתָֽיו׃ |
5 His wayes alway prosper: thy iudgements are hie aboue his sight: therefore defieth he all his enemies.
| יָחִילוּ דְרָכָו ׀ בְּכׇל־עֵת מָרוֹם מִשְׁפָּטֶיךָ מִנֶּגְדּוֹ כׇּל־צוֹרְרָיו יָפִיחַ בָּהֶֽם׃ |
6 He saith in his heart, I shall neuer be moued, nor be in danger.
| אָמַר בְּלִבּוֹ בַּל־אֶמּוֹט לְדֹר וָדֹר אֲשֶׁר לֹֽא־בְרָֽע׃ |
7 His mouth is full of cursing and deceite and fraude: vnder his tongue is mischiefe and iniquitie.
| אָלָה ׀ פִּיהוּ מָלֵא וּמִרְמוֹת וָתֹךְ תַּחַת לְשׁוֹנוֹ עָמָל וָאָֽוֶן׃ |
8 He lieth in waite in the villages: in the secret places doeth hee murder the innocent: his eyes are bent against the poore.
| יֵשֵׁב ׀ בְּמַאְרַב חֲצֵרִים בַּֽמִּסְתָּרִים יַהֲרֹג נָקִי עֵינָיו לְֽחֵלְכָה יִצְפֹּֽנוּ׃ |
9 He lyeth in waite secretly, euen as a lyon in his denne: he lyeth in waite to spoyle the poore: he doeth spoyle the poore, when he draweth him into his net.
| יֶאֱרֹב בַּמִּסְתָּר ׀ כְּאַרְיֵה בְסֻכֹּה יֶאֱרֹב לַחֲטוֹף עָנִי יַחְטֹף עָנִי בְּמׇשְׁכוֹ בְרִשְׁתּֽוֹ׃ |
10 He croucheth and boweth: therefore heaps of the poore doe fall by his might.
| (ודכה) [יִדְכֶּה] יָשֹׁחַ וְנָפַל בַּעֲצוּמָיו (חלכאים) [חֵל כָּאִֽים]׃ |
11 He hath said in his heart, God hath forgotten, he hideth away his face, and will neuer see.
| אָמַר בְּלִבּוֹ שָׁכַֽח אֵל הִסְתִּיר פָּנָיו בַּל־רָאָה לָנֶֽצַח׃ |
12 Arise, O Lord God: lift vp thine hande: forget not the poore.
| קוּמָה יְהֹוָה אֵל נְשָׂא יָדֶךָ אַל־תִּשְׁכַּח (עניים) [עֲנָוִֽים]׃ |
13 Wherefore doeth the wicked contemne God? he saith in his heart, Thou wilt not regard.
| עַל־מֶה ׀ נִאֵץ רָשָׁע ׀ אֱלֹהִים אָמַר בְּלִבּוֹ לֹא תִדְרֹֽשׁ׃ |
14 Yet thou hast seene it: for thou beholdest mischiefe and wrong, that thou mayest take it into thine handes: the poore committeth himselfe vnto thee: for thou art the helper of the fatherlesse.
| רָאִתָה כִּי־אַתָּה ׀ עָמָל וָכַעַס ׀ תַּבִּיט לָתֵת בְּיָדֶךָ עָלֶיךָ יַעֲזֹב חֵלֵכָה יָתוֹם אַתָּה ׀ הָיִיתָ עוֹזֵֽר׃ |
15 Breake thou the arme of the wicked and malicious: searche his wickednes, and thou shalt finde none.
| שְׁבֹר זְרוֹעַ רָשָׁע וָרָע תִּֽדְרוֹשׁ־רִשְׁעוֹ בַל־תִּמְצָֽא׃ |
16 The Lord is King for euer and euer: the heathen are destroyed foorth of his land.
| יְהֹוָה מֶלֶךְ עוֹלָם וָעֶד אָבְדוּ גוֹיִם מֵאַרְצֽוֹ׃ |
17 Lord, thou hast heard the desire of the poore: thou preparest their heart: thou bendest thine eare to them,
| תַּאֲוַת עֲנָוִים שָׁמַעְתָּ יְהֹוָה תָּכִין לִבָּם תַּקְשִׁיב אׇזְנֶֽךָ׃ |
18 To iudge the fatherlesse and poore, that earthly man cause to feare no more.
| לִשְׁפֹּט יָתוֹם וָדָךְ בַּל־יוֹסִיף עוֹד לַעֲרֹץ אֱנוֹשׁ מִן־הָאָֽרֶץ׃ |
