Psalm 10

The author of this psalm began complaining that God did not protect the weak from those who oppress them. Then between verses 13 and 14 something happened. The eyes of the complainer were opened to the reality of God's nature. Maybe as he penned his complain his saw an oppressor caught in his own trap. He witnessed justice prevail. Or maybe God pointed out what he had been missing. Very quickly the psalmist learned the most powerful lesson about God's compassion: he is always ready to help the needy.
