Psalm 10:7

A Prayer For God To Throw Down The Wicked

⁶ He has said in his heart, I will not be moved: through all generations I will never be in trouble. ⁷ His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and false words: under his tongue are evil purposes and dark thoughts. ⁸ He is waiting in the dark places of the towns: in the secret places he puts to death those who have done no wrong: his eyes are secretly turned against the poor.
