Psalms 10:6-11 Modern English Version (MEV)

6. He says in his heart, “I shall not be moved;for generations I shall not meet adversity.”

7. His mouth is filled with cursing and deceit and oppression;under his tongue is mischief and iniquity.

8. He sits in the lurking places of the villages;in the secret places he murders the innocent;his eyes lurk against the unfortunate.

9. He lies in wait secretly as a lion in his den;he lies in wait to catch the poor;he catches the poor, drawing them into his net.

10. He crouches; he lies low,so that the unfortunate fall by his strength.

11. He says in his heart, “God has forgotten;He hides His face; He will never see it.”
