Psalms 10:16

Compare all

14 But You have ^aseen, for You observe trouble and grief,
To repay it by Your hand.
The helpless ^bcommits himself to You;
^cYou are the helper of the fatherless.

15 Break the arm of the wicked and the evil man;
Seek out his wickedness until You find none.

16 ^aThe Lord is King forever and ever;
The nations have 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 To¹ do justice to the fatherless and the oppressed,
That the man of the earth may¹ oppress no more.

Psalms 10:16

The Lord is king for ever - He has, and ever will have, the supreme power.

The heathen are perished out of his land - They are all either cut off or converted. This may refer to the Canaanites. What a mercy that we can say this of our own country! Once it was entirely heathen; now not one heathen family in the whole land.
