Psalms 55:20-23
20He has putH7971 forthH7971 his handsH3027 against 1those whoH7965 were at peaceH7965 with him; He has 23violatedH2490 his covenantH1285.21His 4speechH6310 was 5smootherH2505 thanH4480 butterH4260, But his heartH3820 was warH7128; His wordsH1697 were 6softerH7401 thanH4480 oilH8081, Yet they were drawnH6609 7swordsH6609.
228CastH7993 9your burdenH3053 upon the LordH3068 and He will sustainH3557 you; 10He will neverH3808H5769 allowH5414 the righteousH6662 to 1112be shakenH4131.23But You, O GodH430, will bringH3381 them downH3381 to the 1314pitH875 of destructionH7845; 15MenH376 of bloodshedH1818 and deceitH4820 will 16not liveH2673 out halfH2673 their daysH3117. But I will 17trustH982 in You.
