New Testament

Psalms 55:19-23 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

19. God will hear and answer them, he who is enthroned from of old, Selah Because they do not change, and they do not fear God.

20. He has put forth his hands against his friends; he has defiled his covenant.

21. The buttery words of his mouth were smooth, but there was battle in his heart. His words were smoother than oil, but they were drawn swords.

22. Cast your burden on Yahweh, and he will sustain you. He will never allow the righteous to be moved.

23. But you, O God, you will bring them down to the pit of corruption. The men of bloodshed and deceit will not live half their days, but I will trust you.
