Psalm 10:3

A Prayer For God To Throw Down The Wicked

² The wicked proudly persecutes the poor people. He will be caught in the schemes that he contrived. ³ For the wicked boasts of his heart’s desire,
And the greedy man curses and spurns the Lord.
⁴ In his arrogant attitude he does not search for God. His faulty reasoning concludes: There is no God.
