Psalm 10:5-11

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁵ His ways ^[a](A)prosper at all times;
Your judgments are on high, ^(B)out of his sight;
As for all his adversaries, he snorts at them.
⁶ He says to himself, “^(C)I will not be moved;
^[b]Throughout all generations ^(D)I will not be in adversity.”
⁷ His ^(E)mouth is full of curses and deceit and ^(F)oppression;
^(G)Under his tongue is mischief and wickedness.
⁸ He sits in the ^(H)lurking places of the villages;
In the hiding places he ^(I)kills the innocent;
His eyes ^[c]stealthily watch for the ^[d](J)unfortunate.
⁹ He lurks in a hiding place as ^(K)a lion in his ^[e]lair;
He ^(L)lurks to catch ^(M)the afflicted;
He catches the afflicted when he draws him into his ^(N)net.
¹⁰ He ^[f]crouches, he ^[g]bows down,
And the ^[h]unfortunate fall ^[i]by his mighty ones.
¹¹ He ^(O)says to himself, “God has forgotten;
He has hidden His face; He will never see it.”
