Thematic Bible: Lie in wait to commit


Thematic Bible



He sits in the lurking places of the villages: in the secret places does he murder the innocent: his eyes are secretly set against the poor. He lies in wait secretly as a lion in his den: he lies in wait to catch the poor: he does catch the poor, when he draws him into his net. He crouches, and lies low, that the poor may fall by his strength.


And as bands of robbers wait for a man, so the company of priests murder in the way by consent: for they commit lewdness.
