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

throughout all generations I vshall not meet adversity.”

7  wHis mouth is filled with cursing and xdeceit and yoppression;

zunder his tongue are amischief and biniquity.

8  He sits in ambush in the villages;

in chiding places he murders the innocent.

His eyes stealthily watch for the helpless;

9  he lurks in ambush like da lion in his ethicket;

he flurks that he may seize the poor;

he seizes the poor when he draws him into his gnet.

10  The helpless are crushed, sink down,

and fall by his might.

11  He says in his heart, “God has forgotten,

he has hhidden his face, he iwill never see it.”

12  jArise, O Lord; O God, klift up your hand;

lforget not the afflicted.

13  Why does the wicked mrenounce God

and say in his heart, “You will not ncall to account”?

14  But you do see, for you onote mischief and vexation,

that you may take it into your hands;

to you the helpless pcommits himself;

you have been qthe helper of the fatherless.
