Psalms 10:8-13

LEB(i) 8 He sits in ambush in villages; in the hiding places he kills the innocent. His eyes ⌊lurk⌋* for the helpless. 9 He lies in ambush ⌊secretly,⌋* like a lion in a thicket. He lies in ambush to seize the poor; he seizes the poor by catching him in his net. 10 He is crushed;* he is bowed down;* so* the helpless host* falls by his ⌊might⌋.* 11 He says in his heart, "God has forgotten. He has hidden his face. He never sees." 12 Rise up, O Yahweh; O God, lift up your hand. Do not forget the afflicted. 13 Why does the wicked treat God with contempt? He says in his heart, "You will not call me to account."
