5 He is secure in his ways at all times; Your lofty judgments are far from him; he sneers at all his foes.
6 He says to himself, “I will not be moved; from age to age I am free of distress.”
7 His mouth is full of cursing, deceit, and violence; trouble and malice are under his tongue.
8 He lies in wait near the villages; in ambush he slays the innocent; his eyes watch in stealth for the helpless.
9 He lies in wait like a lion in a thicket; he lurks to seize the oppressed; he catches the lowly in his net.
10 They are crushed and beaten down; the helpless fall prey to his strength.
11 He says to himself, “God has forgotten; He hides His face and never sees.”
