A prayer for help[a]

10 Must you stand so far away, Lord?
    Why do you hide when there is trouble?
2 Wicked people are cruel to poor people.
They use their evil ideas
    to take hold of weak people.
3 Not only do wicked people boast
    because they get the things that they want.
They also praise robbers,
    and they curse the Lord.
