Psalms 10:17 (NAS)
O LORD, Thou hast heard the desire of the humble; Thou wilt strengthen their heart, Thou wilt incline Thine ear

Psalms 10:17 (NLT)
LORD, you know the hopes of the helpless. Surely you will listen to their cries and comfort them.


You know that Adonai is omniscient, knowing all things. Therefore, you should be aware that He hears everything in your heart -- the smallest unspoken thing, every sigh. He pays attention and is interested in all there is about you. He understands every desire, wish, and longing of your heart.

Jehovah knows that you are humble, for you realize that you are weak and need His strength to support and uphold you. No matter how low or afflicted you feel, you turn to God for His help, seeking His answers. Then the Lord makes your heart stable and steadfast. He directs your soul in the right direction, causing it to be firmly established, fixed, and secure. He gives you the strength to endure.

The Lord your God has uncovered His ears to hear your prayers. He inclines His head towards you and is attentive to your cries. When you call, you know He listens.
