10 For yet wait but a little while, The wicked [on earth] shall not be; His place thou shalt observe and view, But him [therein] thou shalt not see.
11 But meek and humble men the earth Shall quietly [their time] possess, And they shall here delight themselves In plenty and in [holy] peace.
12 The wicked plots against the just, And at him grinds his [bloody] teeth.
13 The Lord derideth him, because His [dreadful] day he coming seeth.
14 The wicked have drawn out the sword, And bent their bow to [wound] and slay The poor and weak; and to cast down Men [that are] upright in their way.
