"For behold, the sinners have bent their bow. They have prepared their arrows in the quiver, so as to shoot arrows in the dark at the upright of heart. "
— Psalms 10:3, Catholic Public Domain Version
“For the wicked boasteth of his heart’s desire, and blesseth the covetous, whom the Lord abhorreth.”
“For the wicked boasteth of his heart’s desire, And the covetous renounceth, yea, contemneth Jehovah. ”
“For the wicked boasts of his heart's cravings. He blesses the greedy, and condemns Yahweh.”
“Yes, the wicked man boasts because he gets what he wants; the one who robs others curses and rejects the LORD.”
“For, lo, the wicked have bent their bow: they have prepared their arrows in the quiver, to shoot in the dark the upright of heart.”
“For the evil-doer is lifted up because of the purpose of his heart, and he whose mind is fixed on wealth is turned away from the Lord, saying evil against him.”
“For the wicked boasteth of his heart’s desire, and blesseth the covetous, whom the Lord abhorreth.”
Unto the end. A Psalm of David.
I trust in the Lord. How can you say to my soul, “Sojourn to the mountain, like a sparrow.”
For behold, the sinners have bent their bow. They have prepared their arrows in the quiver, so as to shoot arrows in the dark at the upright of heart.
For they have destroyed the things that you have completed. But what has the just one done?
The Lord is in his holy temple. The Lord’s throne is in heaven. His eyes look upon the poor. His eyelids question the sons of men.
The Lord questions the just and the impious. Yet he who loves iniquity, hates his own soul.
