10 The helpless are crushed, laid low;they fall into the power of the wicked,
11 Who say in their hearts, “God has forgotten,shows no concern, never bothers to look.”
12 Rise up, Lord! God, lift up your hand!Do not forget the poor!
13 Why should the wicked scorn God,say in their hearts, “God does not care”?
14 But you do see;you take note of misery and sorrow;you take the matter in hand.To you the helpless can entrust their cause;you are the defender of orphans.
15 Break the arm of the wicked and depraved;make them account for their crimes;let none of them survive.
16 The Lord is king forever;the nations have vanished from his land.
