Old Testament

New Testament

Psalm 64:3-10 New International Version (NIV)

3. They sharpen their tongues like swords and aim cruel words like deadly arrows.

4. They shoot from ambush at the innocent; they shoot suddenly, without fear.

5. They encourage each other in evil plans, they talk about hiding their snares; they say, “Who will see it ?”

6. They plot injustice and say, “We have devised a perfect plan!” Surely the human mind and heart are cunning.

7. But God will shoot them with his arrows; they will suddenly be struck down.

8. He will turn their own tongues against them and bring them to ruin; all who see them will shake their heads in scorn.

9. All people will fear; they will proclaim the works of God and ponder what he has done.

10. The righteous will rejoice in the Lord and take refuge in him; all the upright in heart will glory in him!
