Have mercy on me, O Lord: see my humiliation which I suffer from my enemies.
Rashi
You saw what he does, and You remain silent. for You So is Your custom, that You look at mischief and provocation. to give with Your power With Your power, You lend a hand to the wicked to prosper with their wickedness. upon You Your army leaves Your people Israel, who are Your army, leave the burden upon You that You should execute justice upon the wicked. Menachem (p. 132) interprets יעזב as an expression of help, as (in Exod. 23:5): “you shall help (עזב תעזב) with him.” He interprets חלכה as an expression of “poor and weak (חלך),” the “chaf” being a radical. You would help the orphan in the early days.
