Psalms 10:18

Context

10:18 You defend 1  the fatherless and oppressed, 2 

so that mere mortals may no longer terrorize them. 3 

1 tn Heb “to judge (on behalf of),” or “by judging (on behalf of).”

2 tn Heb “crushed.” See v. 10.

3 tn Heb “he will not add again [i.e., “he will no longer”] to terrify, man from the earth.” The Hebrew term אֱנוֹשׁ (’enosh, “man”) refers here to the wicked nations (v. 16). By describing them as “from the earth,” the psalmist emphasizes their weakness before the sovereign, eternal king.
