¹ Lord, why hast thou gone far away? thou despisest us in covenable times in tribulation.

² While the wicked man waxeth proud, the poor man is burnt; they be taken in the wicked counsels, which they thinked.

³ For why the sinner is praised in the desires of his soul; and the wicked is blessed. The sinner hath stirred the Lord to wrath;

⁴ after the multitude of his wrath, he shall not seek after God. God is not in his sight;

⁵ his ways be defouled in all time. Thy dooms be taken away from his face; he shall be lord of all his enemies.

⁶ For he said in his heart, I shall not be moved, from generation into gener-ation without evil.

⁷ Whose mouth is full of cursing, and of bitterness, and of guile; travail and sorrow is under his tongue.

⁸ He sitteth in ambushes with rich men in privates; to slay the innocent man. His eyes behold cruelly on the poor man;

⁹ he setteth ambushes in hid place, as a lion in his den. He setteth ambushes, for to ravish a poor man; for to ravish a poor man, while he draweth in the poor man. In his snare he shall make meek the poor man;

¹⁰ he shall bow himself down, and he shall fall, when he hath been lord of poor men.

¹¹ For he said in his heart, God hath forgotten; he hath turned away his face, that he see not into the end.

¹² Lord God, rise thou up, and thine hand be enhanced; forget thou not poor men.

¹³ For what thing stirred the wicked man God to wrath? for he said in his heart, God shall not seek.

¹⁴ Thou seest, for thou beholdest travail and sorrow; that thou take them into thine hands. The poor man is left to thee; thou shalt be an helper to the fatherless and motherless.

¹⁵ All-break thou the arm of the sinner, and evil-willed; his sin shall be sought, and it shall not be found.

¹⁶ The Lord shall reign without end, and into the world of world; folks, ye shall perish from the land of him.

¹⁷ The Lord hath heard the desire of poor men; thine ear hath heard the making ready of their heart.

¹⁸ To deem for the motherless and meek; that a man presume no more to make himself great on earth.
