Psalms 10

1 Why standest thou afar off, O LORD? [why] hidest thou [thyself] in times of trouble?

耶和华啊，你为什么站在远处？ 在患难的时候为什么隐藏？

2 The wicked in [his] pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined.

恶人在骄横中把困苦人追得火急； 愿他们陷在自己所设的计谋里。

3 For the wicked boasteth of his heart’s desire, and blesseth the covetous, [whom] the LORD abhorreth.

因为恶人以心愿自夸； 贪财的背弃耶和华，并且轻慢他。

4 The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek [after God: ] God [is] not in all his thoughts.

恶人面带骄傲，说：耶和华必不追究； 他一切所想的都以为没有 神。

5 His ways are always grievous; thy judgments [are] far above out of his sight: [as for] all his enemies, he puffeth at them.

凡他所做的，时常稳固； 你的审判超过他的眼界。 至于他一切的敌人， 他都向他们喷气。

6 He hath said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for [I shall] never [be] in adversity.

他心里说：我必不动摇， 世世代代不遭灾难。

7 His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud: under his tongue [is] mischief and vanity.

他满口是咒骂、诡诈、欺压， 舌底是毒害、奸恶。

8 He sitteth in the lurking places of the villages: in the secret places doth he murder the innocent: his eyes are privily set against the poor.

他在村庄埋伏等候； 他在隐密处杀害无辜的人。 他的眼睛窥探无倚无靠的人；

9 He lieth in wait secretly as a lion in his den: he lieth in wait to catch the poor: he doth catch the poor, when he draweth him into his net.

他埋伏在暗地，如狮子蹲在洞中。 他埋伏，要掳去困苦人； 他拉网，就把困苦人掳去。

10 He croucheth, [and] humbleth himself, that the poor may fall by his strong ones.

他屈身蹲伏， 无倚无靠的人就倒在他爪牙之下。

11 He hath said in his heart, God hath forgotten: he hideth his face; he will never see [it].

他心里说： 神竟忘记了； 他掩面永不观看。

12 Arise, O LORD; O God, lift up thine hand: forget not the humble.

耶和华啊，求你起来！ 神啊，求你举手，不要忘记困苦人！

13 Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God? he hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require [it].

恶人为何轻慢 神， 心里说：你必不追究？

14 Thou hast seen [it; ] for thou beholdest mischief and spite, to requite [it] with thy hand: the poor committeth himself unto thee; thou art the helper of the fatherless.

其实你已经观看； 因为奸恶毒害，你都看见了， 为要以手施行报应。 无倚无靠的人把自己交托你； 你向来是帮助孤儿的。

15 Break thou the arm of the wicked and the evil [man: ] seek out his wickedness [till] thou find none.

愿你打断恶人的膀臂； 至于坏人，愿你追究他的恶，直到净尽。

16 The LORD [is] King for ever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land.

耶和华永永远远为王； 外邦人从他的地已经灭绝了。

17 LORD, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear:

耶和华啊，谦卑人的心愿， 你早已知道。 你必预备他们的心， 也必侧耳听他们的祈求，

18 To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth may no more oppress.

为要给孤儿和受欺压的人伸冤， 使强横的人不再威吓他们。
