Psalm 10:13-15, ESV
Why does the wicked renounce God and say in his heart, “You will not call to account”? But you do see, for you note mischief and vexation, that you may take it into your hands; to you the helpless commits himself; you have been the helper of the fatherless. Break the arm of the wicked and evildoer; call his wickedness to account till you find none.
Psalm 10:13-15, JN paraphrase
Can’t you just see the Wicked One shaking his fist at the LORD, God, the Almighty and declaring that the LORD does not exist and if He did anyway, He will have no right to call the critic to account. We, His people, are directed to step in and help the fatherless, and chastise the wicked one.
Recommended Reading
Providence by John Piper. Piper takes two words, "God’s Benefice," replaces it with one word, "Providence" and then takes 704 pages to explain what he means. Truly a delightful read.
