Translated from Hebrew and Greek with AI, then checked for clarity and fidelity.

1. Why do you stand at a distance, Yahweh? Why do you conceal yourself in times of distress?
2. In haughtiness the wicked hotly pursue the afflicted; let them be caught in the schemes they have devised.
3. For the wicked boasts of his soul's craving, blesses the greedy, and scorns Yahweh.
4. The wicked does not seek God in the haughtiness of his face; there is no God in all his schemes.
5. His ways prevail at all times; your judgments stand high, remote from him; he sneers at all his adversaries.
6. He says in his heart, "I shall not be shaken generation after generation; I shall suffer no evil."
7. His mouth is full of cursing, deceit, and fraud; under his tongue are mischief and iniquity.
8. He sits in the ambushes of the villages; from secret places he slays the innocent; his eyes lie in wait for the poor.
9. He ambushes from a hiding place like a lion in his lair, waiting to seize the lowly, seizing the lowly as he draws him into his net.
10. He crushes and crouches, bows down, and the poor fall under his mighty strength like the broken.
11. He says in his heart, "God has forgotten; he hides his face; he will never see."
12. Arise, Yahweh! God, lift up your hand! Do not forget the afflicted and the meek.
13. Why does the wicked scorn God? He says in his heart, "You will not require it."
14. You have seen trouble and sorrow, for you consider it to take into your hand; the poor commits herself to you, you have been the orphan's helper.
15. Break the arm of the wicked and the evil. Seek his wickedness until you find none.
16. Yahweh is king forever and ever; the nations have perished from his land.
17. Yahweh, you have heard the desire of the humble; you will prepare their heart; you will incline your ear.
18. to judge the orphan and the crushed, that man of earth may terrify no more.
