Why standest thou afar off, O Lord?
why hidest thou thyself in times of trouble?
The wicked in his pride doth persecute the poor:
let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined.
For the wicked boasteth of his heart’s desire,
and blesseth the covetous, whom the LORD abhorreth.
The wicked, through the pride 
of his countenance,
will not seek after God:
God is not in all his thoughts.
His ways are always flourishing:
thy judgments are far above out of his sight.
As for all his enemies, he puffeth at them:
He hath said in his heart, I…
I shall not be moved.
I shall not be moved.
For I shall never be in adversity:
his mouth is full of deceit, fraud and curses
Under his tongue is mischief and vanity:
In the lurking places of the villages he sits.
In the secret places doth he murder the innocent:
his eyes are privily set against the poor.
He lieth in wait secretly as a lion in his den:
he lieth in wait to catch the poor.
He doth catch the poor, when he draws him to his net. 
he croucheth, and makes himself low.
That the poor may fall by his strong ones yet. 
arise O God, lift up thine hand O LORD
Forget not the humble. 
Forget not the humble.
wherefore doth they contemn God, the wicked?
He hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require it:
For thou beholdest: Thou hast seen it. 
For thou beholdest: spite and mischief.
To requite it: the poor committeth himself unto thee;
thou art the helper of the fatherless.
Break thou the arm of the wicked and man of evil:
Till thou find none, seek out wickedness.
I shall not be moved.
I shall not be moved.
The LORD is King for ever and ever:
the heathen are perished out of his land.
LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle once more?
who shall dwell in thy holy hill again?
He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness:
and speaketh the truth in his heart.
He that backbiteth not with his tongue:
nor doeth evil to his neighbour.
Forget not the humble. 
Forget not the humble.
wherefore doth they contemn God, the wicked?
He hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require it:
For thou beholdest: Thou hast seen it. 
For thou beholdest: spite and mischief.
I shall not be moved.
I shall not be moved.
I shall not be moved.
I shall not be moved.
I shall not be moved.
I shall not be moved.
I shall not be moved.
I shall not be moved.
I shall not be moved.
I shall not be moved.
