Psalm 10:9-11

The Voice

⁹ Ominously, like a lion in its lair,
    he lurks in secret to waylay those who are downtrodden.
When he catches them, he draws them in and drags them off with his net.

¹⁰ Quietly crouching, lying low,
    ready to overwhelm the next by his strength,
¹¹ The wicked thinks in his heart, “God has forgotten us!
    He has covered His face and will never notice!”
