Psalms · Chapter 10
Why standest thou afar off, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH)?
why hidest thou
thyself
in times of trouble?
The wicked in
his pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined.
For the wicked boasteth of his heart’s desire, and blesseth the covetous,
whom 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) abhorreth.
The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek
after Elohim: Elohim
is not in all his thoughts.
His ways are always grievous; thy judgments
are far above out of his sight:
as for all his enemies, he puffeth at them.
He hath said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for
I shall
never
be in adversity.
His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud: under his tongue
is mischief and vanity.
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.
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.
He croucheth,
and humbleth himself, that the poor may fall by his strong ones.
He hath said in his heart, Elohim hath forgotten: he hideth his face; he will never see
it.
Arise, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH); O Elohim, lift up thine hand: forget not the humble.
Wherefore doth the wicked contemn Elohim? he hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require
it.
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.
Break thou the arm of the wicked and the evil
man: seek out his wickedness
till thou find none.
𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH)
is King for ever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land.
𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear:
To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth may no more oppress.

Tehillim11
Psalms · Chapter 11
In 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) put I my trust: How say ye to my nephesh, Flee
as
a bird to your mountain?
For, lo, the wicked bend
their bow, they make ready their arrow upon the string, that they may privily shoot at the upright in heart.
If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?
𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH)
is in his holy heikhal, 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH)’S throne
is
in shamayim: his eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men.
𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth violence his nephesh hateth.
Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone, and an horrible tempest:
this shall be the portion of their cup.
For the righteous 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) loveth righteousness; his countenance doth behold the upright.

Tehillim12
Psalms · Chapter 12
Help, 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH); for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men.
They speak vanity every one with his neighbour:
with flattering lips
and with a double heart do they speak.
𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) shall cut off all flattering lips,
and the tongue that speaketh proud things:
Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips
are
our own: who
is lord over us?
For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, saith 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH); I will set
him in safety
from him that
puffeth at him.
The words of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH)
are pure words:
as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.
Thou shalt keep them, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.
The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted.
