X] :In the secret places doth he murder the innocent:
 * His eyes are privily set against the poor.
 * He 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.
 * He croucheth, and humbleth himself,
 * That the poor may fall by his strong ones.
 * He hath said in his heart, God hath forgotten:
 * He hideth his face; he will never see it.
 * Arise, O Lord; O God, lift up thine hand:
 * Forget not the humble.
 * Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God?
 * He hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require it.
 * Thou hast seen it; for thou beholdest mischief and spite,
 * To requite it with thy hand:
 * The poor committeth himself unto thee;
 * Thou art the helper of the fatherless.
 * Break thou the arm of the wicked and the evil man
 * Seek out his wickedness till thou find none.
 * The Lord is King for ever and ever:
 * The heathen are perished out of his land.
 * Lord, thou hast heard the desire of the humble:
 * Thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear:
 * To judge the fatherless and the oppressed,
 * That the man of the earth may no more oppress.
