Psalm 10:2–6

2  In arrogance the wicked hotly pursue the poor;

let them nbe caught in the schemes that they have devised.

3  For the wicked oboasts of the desires of his soul,

and the one greedy for gain pcurses1 and qrenounces the Lord.

4  In the pride of his face2 the wicked does not qseek him;3

all his thoughts are, r“There is no God.”

5  His ways prosper at all times;

your judgments are on high, sout of his sight;

as for all his foes, he tpuffs at them.

6  He usays in his heart, “I shall not be moved;

throughout all generations I vshall not meet adversity.”
