Verse 2 is found in chapter 10 of Psalms. Psalm 10 begins with the unsettling experience that God seems distant while the wicked prosper. The text describes in detail the arrogance, exploitation, and violence of the one who thinks God will not intervene. Yet the prayer ends by affirming that the Lord does see affliction and sustains the orphan and the oppressed. The psalm thus turns the initial protest into a confession that the apparent absence of justice does not mean an absence of divine knowledge.
