Psalms 10:8
8 He waits in ambush near the villages; ▼▼ Heb “he sits in the ambush of the villages.”
in hidden places he kills the innocent.
His eyes look for some unfortunate victim. ▼▼ Heb “his eyes for an unfortunate person lie hidden.” The language may picture a lion (see v.
9) peering out from its hiding place in anticipation that an unsuspecting victim will soon come strolling along.
