- Jeremiah 5:26–28 For among my people are found wicked men: they lay wait, as he that setteth snares; they set a trap, they catch men. As a cage is full of birds, so are their houses full of deceit: therefore they are become great, and waxen rich. They are waxen fat, they shine: yea, they overpass the deeds of the wicked: they judge not the cause, the cause of the fatherless, yet they prosper; and the right of the needy do they not judge.
- Psalm 64:4–6 That they may shoot in secret at the perfect: suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.

They search out iniquities; they accomplish a diligent search: both the inward thought of every one of them, and the heart, is deep.
- Isaiah 5:23 Which justify the wicked for reward, and take away the righteousness of the righteous from him!
