2 The wicked in [his] pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined. KJVSD — Psalm 10:2

3 For the wicked boasteth of his heart's desire, and blesseth the covetous, [whom] the LORD abhorreth. KJVSD — Psalm 10:3

4 The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek [after God]: God [is] not in all his thoughts. KJVSD — Psalm 10:4

5 His ways are always grievous; thy judgments [are] far above out of his sight: [as for] all his enemies, he puffeth at them.KJVSD — Psalm 10:5

6 He hath said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for [I shall] never [be] in adversity. KJVSD — Psalm 10:6

7 His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud: under his tongue [is] mischief and vanity. KJVSD — Psalm 10:7

8 He sitteth in the lurking places of the villages: in the secret places doth he murder the innocent: his eyes are privily set against the poor. KJVSD — Psalm 10:8

15 Break thou the arm of the wicked and the evil [man]: seek out his wickedness [till] thou find none. KJVSD — Psalm 10:15

16 The LORD [is] King for ever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land. KJVSD — Psalm 10:16
