10 He croucheth to the strong ones, and humbleth himself, that the poor may fall by his devices.
11 He hath said in his heart, God hath forgotten; he hideth his face; he will never see it.
12 Arise, O Lord; O God, lift up thine hand; forget not the humble.
13 The wicked condemn God; wherefore he doth say in his heart, Thou wilt not require iniquity at my hand.
14 O Lord, thou hast seen all this, 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.
15 O Lord, thou wilt break the arm of the wicked, and of the evil; and seek out his wickedness until thou find none that remain.
16 And the Lord shall be king forever and ever over his people; for the wicked shall perish out of his land.
17 Lord, thou hast heard the desire of the humble; thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear;
18 To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth may no more oppress.
Psalms 11 Intro: The providence and justice of God. (To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.)
1 In that day thou shalt come, O Lord; and I will put my trust in thee. Thou shalt say unto thy people, for mine ear hath heard thy voice; thou shalt say unto every soul, Flee unto my mountain; and the righteous shall flee like a bird that is let go from the snare of the fowler.
