Psalms 10:17

15 Break the arm of the wicked and evildoer; call him to account for his wickedness until none is left to be found.

16 The LORD is King forever and ever; the nations perish from His land.

You have heard, O LORD, the desire of the humble; You will strengthen their hearts. You will incline Your ear,

18 to vindicate the fatherless and oppressed, that the men of the earth may strike terror no more.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
