Orthodox Bible · LXX · Verse 8 of 18

"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."
Psalms 10:8

In context

6He hath said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for never in adversity.

7His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud: under his tongue mischief and vanity.

8He 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.

9He 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 net.

10He croucheth, humbleth himself, that the poor may fall by his strong ones.
