Sunday Scripture

Arise, Lord! Lift up your hand,

O God.

Do not forget the helpless.

Why does the wicked man revile

God?

Why does he say to himself,

“He won’t call me to account”?

But you, O God, do see trouble

and grief;

you consider it to take it in hand.

The victim commits himself to

you;

you are the helper of the

fatherless.

Break the arm of the wicked and

evil man;

call him to account for his

wickedness

that would not be found out.

The LORD is King for ever and

ever;

The nations will perish from his

land.

You hear, O LORD, the desire of the

afflicted;

you encourage them, and you

listen to their cry,

defending the fatherless and the

oppressed,

in order that man, who is of the

earth, may terrify no more.

Psalm 10 :12 – 18
