10-2: |
The wicked in his pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined. |
10-3: |
For the wicked boasteth of his heart's desire, and blesseth the covetous, whom the LORD abhorreth. |
10-4: |
The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts. |
10-5: |
His ways are always grievous; thy judgments are far above out of his sight: as for all his enemies, he puffeth at them. |
10-6: |
He hath said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for I shall never be in adversity. |
10-7: |
His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud: under his tongue is mischief and vanity. |
10-8: |
He sitteth in the lurking places of the villages: in the secret places doth he murder the innocent: his eyes are privily set against the poor. |
10-9: |
He lieth in wait secretly as a lion in his den: he lieth in wait to catch the poor: he doth catch the poor, when he draweth him into his net. |
10-10: |
He croucheth, and humbleth himself, that the poor may fall by his strong ones. |
10-11: |

Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God? he hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require it. |
10-14: |
Thou hast seen it; for thou beholdest mischief and spite, to requite it with thy hand: the poor committeth himself unto thee; thou art the helper of the fatherless. |
10-15: |
Break thou the arm of the wicked and the evil man: seek out his wickedness till thou find none. |
10-16: |
The LORD is King for ever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land. |
10-17: |
LORD, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear: |
10-18: |
To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth may no more oppress. |
