4 The wicked are too proudto turn to youor even think about you.
5 They are always successful,though they can't understandyour teachings,and they keep sneeringat their enemies.
6 In their hearts they say,“Nothing can hurt us!We'll always be happyand free from trouble.”
7 They curse and tell lies,and all they talk aboutis how to be cruelor how to do wrong.
8 They hide outside villages,waiting to strike and murdersome innocent victim.
9 They are hungry lionshiding in the bushes,hoping to catchsome helpless passer-by.They trap the poor in netsand drag them away.
10 They crouch down and waitto grab a victim.
