Psalm 10
1. David complains of the wicked
12. He prays for remedy
16. He professes his confidence














(7) Cursing and deceit.--From the connection of cursing with deceit (comp. Hosea 4:2, "swearing and lying "), we must understand perjury.

Verse 7. - His mouth is full of cursing. (On the prevalence of this evil habit among the powerful in David's time, see Psalm 59:12; Psalm 109:17, 18; 2 Samuel 16:5.) And deceit and fraud; or, guile and extortion (Kay); comp. Psalm 36:3; Psalm 55:11. Under his tongue is mischief and vanity; rather, as in the margin, mischief and iniquity. These are stored "under his tongue," ready for utterance whenever he finds a fit occasion.
