A Prayer For God To Throw Down The Wicked

6 For he hath said in his heart, "Tush, I shall never be cast down; there shall no harm happen unto me." 7 His mouth is full of cursing, deceit and fraud; under his tongue is travail and sorrow. 8 He sitteth lurking in the thievish corners of the streets, and privily in his lurking dens doth he murder the innocent; his eyes are set against the poor.
