2 In arrogance, the wicked hunt down the weak; They are caught in the schemes that they devise.
3 For the wicked boasts of his heart`s cravings, He blesses the greedy, and condemns Yahweh.
4 The wicked, in the pride of his face, Has no room in his thoughts for God.
5 His ways are prosperous at all times; He is haughty, and your laws are far from his sight: As for all his adversaries, he sneers at them.
6 He says in his heart, "I shall not be shaken; For generations I shall have no trouble."
7 His mouth is full of cursing, deceit, and oppression. Under his tongue is mischief and iniquity.
8 He lies in wait near the villages. From ambushes, he murders the innocent. His eyes are secretly set against the helpless.
