His mouth is full of cursing, deception, and oppression.
    Trouble and wrongdoing are on the tip of his tongue.
He waits in ambush in the villages.
    From his hiding places he kills innocent people.
    His eyes are on the lookout for victims.
He lies in his hiding place like a lion in his den.
    He hides there to catch oppressed people.
    He catches oppressed people when he draws them into his net.
