Psalms 10:1-4 ▼

1 Why do You stand afar off, O Yahweh? Why do You hide Yourself in times of distress?

2 In his lofty pride the wicked hotly pursues the afflicted; Let them be caught in the thoughts which they have devised.

3 For the wicked boasts of his soul’s desire, And the greedy man curses and spurns Yahweh.

4 The wicked, in the haughtiness of his countenance, does not seek Him. All his thoughts are, “There is no God.”
