Psalm 10:13-18 American Standard Version (ASV)

13. Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God, And say in his heart, Thou wilt not require it?

14. Thou hast seen it; for thou beholdest mischief and spite, to requite it with thy hand: The helpless committeth himself unto thee; Thou hast been the helper of the fatherless.

15. Break thou the arm of the wicked; And as for the evil man, seek out his wickedness till thou find none.

16. Jehovah is King for ever and ever: The nations are perished out of his land.

17. Jehovah, thou hast heard the desire of the meek: Thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear;

18. To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, That man who is of the earth may be terrible no more.
