Also, I’d love to hear your thoughts on this scripture so comment on this episode at http://dailydevotionalpodcast.com/podcast/psalm-10/. 1 Why, O Lord, do you stand far away?     Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble? 2 In arrogance the wicked hotly pursue the poor;     let them be caught in the schemes that they have devised. 3 For the wicked boasts of the desires of his soul,     and the one greedy for gain curses and renounces the Lord. 4 In the pride of his face the wicked does not seek him;     all his thoughts are, “There is no God.” 5 His ways prosper at all times;     your judgments are on high, out of his sight;     as for all his foes, he puffs at them. 6 He says in his heart, “I shall not be moved;     throughout all generations I shall not meet adversity.” 7 His mouth is filled with cursing and deceit and oppression;     under his tongue are mischief and iniquity. 8 He sits in ambush in the villages;     in hiding places he murders the innocent. His eyes stealthily watch for the helpless; 9     he lurks in ambush like a lion in his thicket; he lurks that he may seize the poor;     he seizes the poor when he draws him into his net. 10 The helpless are crushed, sink down,     and fall by his might. 11 He says in his heart, “God has forgotten,

Also, I’d love to hear your thoughts on this scripture so comment on this episode at http://dailydevotionalpodcast.com/podcast/psalm-1/. 1 Blessed is the man     who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners,     nor sits in the seat of scoffers; 2 but his delight is in the law of the Lord,     and on his law he meditates day and night. 3 He is like a tree     planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season,     and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers. 4 The wicked are not so,     but are like chaff that the wind drives away. 5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,     nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous; 6 for the Lord knows the way of the righteous,     but the way of the wicked will perish.
