3 For the reshah boasteth of his ta'avat nefesh (soul's lust), and blesseth the covetous, whom Hashem abhorreth.
4 The reshah, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after Him; Elohim is not in all his thoughts.
5 His ways are always prosperous; Thy mishpatim are on high, out of his sight; as for all his enemies, he sneers at them.
6 He hath said in his lev, I shall not be shaken; throughout all generations I shall never be in trouble.
7 His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud; under his leshon (tongue) is trouble and iniquity.
8 He sitteth in the lurking places of the villages; in the places for ambush doth he murder the naki (innocent); his eyes are secretly set against the poor.
9 He lieth in wait secretly as a lion in his den; he lieth in wait to catch the poor; he doth catch the poor when he draweth him into his reshet.
