Who are those called "the wicked" in the Bible?

Are they "any" unregenerates, or are they an especially wicked group of sinners?

A sampling of verses regarding "the wicked" are as follows:


Quote:
Ps 9:17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.

Ps 7:11 God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day.

Ps 10:2 The wicked in his pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined.

Ps 11:2 For, lo, the wicked bend their bow, they make ready their arrow upon the string, that they may privily shoot at the upright in heart.

Ps 32:10 Many sorrows shall be to the wicked: but he that trusteth in the LORD, mercy shall compass him about.

Ps 71:4 Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.

Ps 73:3 For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
