7. Their mouths are full of oaths, violence, and lies;discord and evil are under their tongues.
8. They wait in ambush near towns;their eyes watch for the helplessto murder the innocent in secret.
9. They lurk in ambush like lions in a thicket,hide there to trap the poor,snare them and close the net.
10. The helpless are crushed, laid low;they fall into the power of the wicked,
11. Who say in their hearts, “God has forgotten,shows no concern, never bothers to look.”
12. Rise up, Lord! God, lift up your hand!Do not forget the poor!
13. Why should the wicked scorn God,say in their hearts, “God does not care”?
