\q2 Why do you not pay attention when we have troubles?
\b
\q1
\v 2 People who are proud eagerly cause poor people to suffer.
\q2 So cause what they do to others to happen to them, like traps that catch the very people who have set them for others!
\v 2 Proud, wicked people, have a terrible desire within them to make poor people suffer.
\q2 God!, make them fall into their own traps, so that what they did to others may be done to them!
\q1
\v 3 They boast about the evil things that they want to do.
\q2 They praise people who take from others things that do not belong to them, and they curse you, Yahweh.
\v 3 The wicked person boasts about the evil things he wants to do.
\q2 He desires to own the things that others have, and he doesn't want them to own more things than he has.

\s5
\q1
\v 4 The wicked people are very proud.
\q2 So they do not ask God for help;
\q2 they do not even think about him.
\v 4 The wicked person is so proud
\q2 he never looks for God
\q2 and if he did look for God, he would not find him.
\q2 He is too proud to even think about God.

\v 5 But it seems that they succeed in everything that they do.
\q2 The things that you have commanded are too difficult for him to understand;
\q2 they mock their enemies.
\v 5 But, looking at the life of the wicked man,
\q2 it seems that everything he does is successful.
\q2 He cannot even understand your commands, God,
\q2 and then he mocks his enemies.
\s5
\q1
\v 6 In their minds they think, "Nothing bad will happen to us!
\q2 We will never have troubles!"
\v 6 In his mind he thinks, "Nothing bad can happen to me!
\q2 As long as I live, I will never have troubles."
\q1
\v 7 When they talk, they are always cursing, lying, and threatening to harm others.
\q2 They constantly say evil things that show that they are ready to do evil and immoral things.

\q2 and he makes threats against others.
\q2 When he talks, he only speaks about hurting or destroying other people.
\s5
\q1
\v 8 They hide in villages, ready to attack innocent people.
\q2 They constantly search for people who will not be able to resist them.
\v 8 He makes plans to attack the people living in the villages, people who have done nothing wrong.
\q2 He waits in places where he can hide
\q2 while he keeps looking for more people he can attack,
\q2 people who cannot defend themselves.
\q1
\v 9 They are like lions that crouch down and hide,
\q2 waiting to pounce on some animal.
\q2 They are like hunters who catch helpless people like animals with a net and then drag them away.
\v 9 He waits for his victims like a lion who crouches down,
\q2 and just like the lion, he hides in the bushes.
\q2 He is like the hunter who spreads out the net
\q2 so he can catch helpless people and drag them away.
\b
\q1
\v 10 Just like helpless animals that are crushed,
\q2 people who cannot defend themselves are killed because wicked people overpower them.
\v 10 The helpless people are crushed by the wicked person's plans
\q2 and all the things he does.
\q2 He is powerful, and when he opposes the helpless people,
\q2 he always takes away from them whatever he wants.

\v 11 The wicked people say, "God will not pay any attention to what we do.
\q2 His eyes are covered, and he cannot see anything."
\v 11 The wicked person says, "God cannot remember what I did.
\q2 His eyes are covered, and he cannot see anything that I have done."

\v 12 Yahweh, arise! God, help us with your power!
\v 12 Yahweh, arise! God, strike him down!
\q2 Do not forget those who are suffering!
\s5
\q1
\v 13 Wicked people are always insulting you.
\q2 They think, "God will never punish us!"
\v 13 Why does the most wicked person curse you, God, and turn away from you?
\q2 Does he think, "God can never punish me"?
\q1
\v 14 But you see the trouble and the distress that they cause.
\q2 People who are suffering expect that you will help them,
\q2 and you help orphans, also.
\v 14 God, you do see the trouble and the distress that the wicked person causes.
\q2 And you will strike the wicked man and punish him for all that he does.
\s5

\v 15 Destroy the power of wicked and evil people!
\q2 Continue to pursue and punish them for the wicked things that they do until they stop doing those things.
\v 15 God, you destroy the power of the wicked person
\q2 and the strength of the evil person!
\q2 Make the wicked person pay for the evil things he has done!
\q2 Make him pay for those evil things he did,
\q2 those thingas for which he never thought God would punish him.
