Psalm 10:5

A Prayer For God To Throw Down The Wicked

⁴ In all his scheming,
the wicked arrogantly thinks:
“There is no accountability,
since God does not exist.”
⁵ His ways are always secure;
Your lofty judgments are beyond his sight;
he scoffs at all his adversaries.
⁶ He says to himself, “I will never be moved—
from generation to generation without calamity.”
