9a:7. His mouth is full of cursing, and of bitterness, and of deceit: under his tongue are labour and sorrow.
9a:8. He sitteth in ambush with the rich, in private places, that he may kill the innocent.
9a:9. His eyes are upon the poor man: he lieth in wait, in secret, like a lion in his den. He lieth in ambush, that he may catch the poor man: so catch the poor, whilst he draweth him to him.
9a:10. In his net he will bring him down, he will crouch and fall, when he shall have power over the poor.
9a:11. For he hath said in his heart: God hath forgotten, he hath turned away his face, not to see to the end.
9a:12. Arise, O Lord God, let thy hand be exalted: forget not the poor.
9a:13. Wherefore hath the wicked provoked God? for he hath said in his heart: He will not require it.
9a:14. Thou seest it, for thou considerest labour and sorrow: that thou mayst deliver them into thy hands. To thee is the poor man left: thou wilt be a helper to the orphan.
9a:15. Break thou the arm of the sinner and of the malignant: his sin shall be sought, and shall not be found.
9a:16. The Lord shall reign to eternity, yea, for ever and ever: ye Gentiles shall perish from his land.
