2. The reshah in his ga'avah (haughtiness) doth persecute the ani (poor, see Zech 9:9 where ani is Moshiach); let them be caught in the devices that they have schemed.
3. For the reshah boasteth of his ta'avat nefesh (soul's lust), and blesseth the covetous, whom Hashem abhorreth.
4. The reshah, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after Him; Elohim is not in all his thoughts.
5. His ways are always prosperous; Thy mishpatim are on high, out of his sight; as for all his enemies, he sneers at them.
6. He hath said in his lev, I shall not be shaken; throughout all generations I shall never be in trouble.
7. His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud; under his leshon (tongue) is trouble and iniquity.
8. He sitteth in the lurking places of the villages; in the places for ambush doth he murder the naki (innocent); his eyes are secretly set against the poor.
