1 (9-22) Why, O Lord, standing far away, hiding himself in the time of trouble?
2 (9-23) In his pride the wicked persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined.
3 (9-24) For the wicked boasts of his heart's desire; covetous indulges himself.
4 (9-25) In the pride of his wicked, the Lord will punish `not '; in all his thoughts: `There is no God!
5 (9-26) In His ways are always grievous; thy judgments are far for him; for all his enemies, he puffeth at
6 (9-27) says in his heart, `shall not be moved; from generation to generation is not befall [me] of evil ';
7 (9-28) His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud; under the tongue - it is mischief and vanity;
8 (9-29) sitting in an ambush of the villages; in the secret places he murder the innocent; His eyes are privily set against the poor;
9 (9-30) lies in wait in a secret place like a lion in his den; lurking in wait to catch the poor; catch the poor, drawing him into his net;
10 (9-31) is bent, adjacent, --and poor may fall by his strong ones;
eleven (9-32) says in his heart, `God hath forgotten, he hideth his face, he will never see."

12 (9-33) Arise, O Lord God of [my], lift up thine hand: forget not the afflicted.
13 (9-34) What wicked God, saying in his heart, `You will seek not '?
14 (9-35) You see, for thou hast to insults and harassment, to give thy hand. You poor committeth himself; fatherless you are the helper.
15 (9-36) Break the arm of the wicked and the evil man: seek out his wickedness till thou find.
16 (9-37) The Lord - King for ever and ever; the heathen are perished out of his land.
17 (9-38) God! You have heard the desire of the humble; their heart; open your ear,
18 (9-39) To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, do not be afraid more people on the ground.
