'Contempt' in the Bible

He who sits [enthroned] in the heavens laughs [at their rebellion];The [Sovereign] Lord scoffs at them [and in supreme contempt He mocks them].

Let the lying lips be mute,Which speak insolently and arrogantly against the [consistently] righteousWith pride and contempt.

He pours contempt on princesAnd makes them wander in a pathless wasteland.

Take reproach and contempt away from me,For I observe Your testimonies.

Be gracious to us, O Lord, be gracious and favorable toward us,For we are greatly filled with contempt.

Our soul is greatly filledWith the scoffing of those who are at ease,And with the contempt of the proud [who disregard God’s law].
