19. God, who is enthroned from of old, who does not change— he will hear them and humble them, because they have no fear of God.
20. My companion attacks his friends; he violates his covenant.
21. His talk is smooth as butter, yet war is in his heart; his words are more soothing than oil, yet they are drawn swords.
22. Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken.
23. But you, God, will bring down the wicked into the pit of decay; the bloodthirsty and deceitful will not live out half their days. But as for me, I trust in you.
