Psalm 10:7-9
Contemporary English Version
Psalm 10:7-9
Contemporary English Version
7 (A) They curse and tell lies,
and all they talk about
is how to be cruel
or how to do wrong.
8 They hide outside villages,
waiting to strike and murder
some innocent victim.
9 They are hungry lions
hiding in the bushes,
hoping to catch
some helpless passerby.
They trap the poor in nets
and drag them away.
Psalm 10:7-9

He lies in wait to catch the helpless;(F)
he catches the helpless and drags them off in his net.(G)
