psalms 10:1 Why dost Thou stand afar off, O LORD? Why dost Thou hide [Thyself] in times of trouble?

< Psalms 9:20
Psalms 10:2 >

      Ps 10:1-18. The Psalmist mourns God's apparent indifference to his troubles, which are aggravated by the successful malice, blasphemy, pride, deceit, and profanity of the wicked. On the just and discriminating providence of God he relies for the destruction of their false security, and the defense of the needy.

      1. These are, of course, figurative terms (compare Ps 7:6; 13:1, &c.).
      hidest--Supply "thine eyes" or "face."

JFB.
