aySee Ps. 119:51
Psalms 10:4-12
4In the pride of his face ▼▼Or of his anger
the wicked does not bseek him; ▼▼Or the wicked says, “He will not call to account”
all his thoughts are, d“There is no God.”
5His ways prosper at all times;
your judgments are on high, eout of his sight;
as for all his foes, he fpuffs at them.
6He gsays in his heart, “I shall not be moved;
throughout all generations I hshall not meet adversity.”
7 iHis mouth is filled with cursing and jdeceit and koppression;
lunder his tongue are mmischief and niniquity.
8He sits in ambush in the villages;
in ohiding places he murders the innocent.
His eyes stealthily watch for the helpless;
9he lurks in ambush like pa lion in his qthicket;
he rlurks that he may seize the poor;
he seizes the poor when he draws him into his snet.
10The helpless are crushed, sink down,
and fall by his might.
11He says in his heart, “God has forgotten,
he has thidden his face, he uwill never see it.”
12 vArise, O Lord; O God, wlift up your hand;
xforget not the afflicted.
Psalms 17:8-13
8 Keep me as ythe apple of your eye;hide me in zthe shadow of your wings,
9from the wicked who do me violence,
my deadly enemies who aasurround me.
10 abThey close their hearts to pity;
with their mouths they acspeak arrogantly.
11They have now surrounded our adsteps;
they set their eyes to aecast us to the ground.
12He is like a lion eager to tear,
as a young lion aflurking in ambush.
13 Arise, O Lord! Confront him, subdue him!
Deliver my soul from the wicked by your sword,
Psalms 35:7
7 For agwithout cause ahthey hid their net for me;without cause they dug aia pit for my life. ▼
▼The word pit is transposed from the preceding line; Hebrew For without cause they hid the pit of their net for me; without cause they dug for my life

11Let not the foot of arrogance come upon me,nor the hand of the wicked drive me away.

but they have fallen into it themselves. Selah

of awthe scorn of axthose who are at ease,
of the contempt of aythe proud.
