Psalm 10:1 in context

  1. 1Why do you stand far off, Yahweh?
    Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble?
  2. 2In arrogance, the wicked hunt down the weak.
    They are caught in the schemes that they devise.
  3. 3For the wicked boasts of his heart’s cravings.
    He blesses the greedy and condemns Yahweh.
