Psalm 10:17

A Prayer For God To Throw Down The Wicked

¹⁶ The LORD is King forever and ever: the nations are perished out of his land. ¹⁷ LORD, you have heard the desire of the humble: you will prepare their heart, you will cause your ear to hear: ¹⁸ To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth may no more oppress.
