Psalms 10:3 in Context — Psalms 10

1 Pourquoi, ô Éternel! Te tiens-tu éloigné? Pourquoi te caches-tu au temps de la détresse?

2 Le méchant dans son orgueil poursuit les malheureux, Ils sont victimes des trames qu’il a conçues.

3 Car le méchant se glorifie de sa convoitise, Et le ravisseur outrage, méprise l’Éternel.

4 Le méchant dit avec arrogance: Il ne punit pas! Il n’y a point de Dieu! Voilà toutes ses pensées.

5 Ses voies réussissent en tout temps; Tes jugements sont trop élevés pour l’atteindre, Il souffle contre tous ses adversaires.
