Psalm 5:9-10
Legacy Standard Bible
9 There is (A)nothing [a]reliable in their mouth;
Their (B)inward part is destruction itself.
Their (C)throat is an open grave;
They [b]flatter with their tongue.
10 Hold them guilty, O God;
(D)By their own devices let them fall!
In the abundance of their transgressions (E)thrust them out,
For they are (F)rebellious against You.
Psalm 10:2-11
Legacy Standard Bible
2 In his (A)lofty pride the wicked [a]hotly pursues the afflicted;
[b]Let them be (B)caught in the thoughts which they have devised.
3 For the wicked (C)boasts of his (D)soul’s desire,
And [c]the greedy man curses and (E)spurns Yahweh.
4 The wicked, in the haughtiness of his countenance, (F)does not seek Him.
All his [d]thoughts are, “(G)There is no God.”
5 His ways [e](H)prosper at all times;
Your judgments are on high, (I)out of his sight;
As for all his adversaries, he snorts at them.
6 He says in his heart, “(J)I will not be shaken;
[f]From generation to generation (K)I will not be in adversity.”
Pe
7 His (L)mouth is full of curses and deceit and (M)oppression;
(N)Under his tongue is mischief and wickedness.
Ayin
8 He sits in the [g](O)places of the villages where one lies in wait;
In the hiding places he (P)kills the innocent;
His eyes [h]stealthily watch for the [i](Q)unfortunate.
9 He lies in wait in a hiding place as (R)a lion in his [j]lair;
He (S)lies in wait to catch (T)the afflicted;
He catches the afflicted when he draws him into his (U)net.
10 He [k]crouches, he [l]bows down,
And the [m]unfortunate fall [n]by his mighty ones.
11 He (V)says in his heart, “God has forgotten;
He has hidden His face; He will never see it.”

Legacy Standard Bible
In Your Light We See Light
For the choir director. Of the servant of Yahweh, of David.
36 [a]Transgression declares to the [b]ungodly within [c]his heart;
There is (A)no dread of God before his eyes.
2 For it (B)flatters him in his eyes
For one to discover his iniquity and hate it.
3 The (C)words of his mouth are wickedness and deceit;
He has (D)ceased to consider to do good.
4 He (E)devises wickedness upon his bed;
He sets himself on a (F)path that is not good;
He (G)does not despise evil.
