Plenty of lies come from his mouth,
    and he curses people.
The bad words that he speaks are very cruel,
    and they hurt people.
He hides near the villages,
    so that he can jump out and catch people.
He watches in secret to find a weak person that he can kill.
    He murders people who have done nothing wrong.

    He waits there to catch a poor, weak person.
Like a hunter, he catches poor people in his net.
