Psalm 10:12
“Arise, O Lord; O God, lift up thine hand: forget not the humble.”
KJV
Read in Psalm 10Meaning
Within this movement of Psalm 10, the prayer turns outward and asks God to arise, act, and remember the afflicted.
Prayer for God to arise and act
The lament turns into petition for remembered suffering, accountability, and the disabling of oppression.
Read carefully
the prayer turns outward and asks God to arise, act, and remember the afflicted; the verse remains inside Psalm 10:12–15.
Reflection
Let this verse shape truthful prayer, protection of the vulnerable, and patient trust rather than retaliation.
