NET Bible
"Evil men draw their swords and prepare their bows, to bring down the oppressed and needy, and to slaughter those who are godly."
— Psalms 37:14, NET Bible
“The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, and to slay such as be of upright conversation.”
“The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, To cast down the poor and needy, To slay such as are upright in the way. ”
“The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, to kill those who are upright in the way.”
“But I, as a deaf man, heard not: and as a dumb man not opening his mouth.”
“The evil-doers have taken out their swords, their bows are bent; for crushing the poor, and to put to death those who are upright in their ways.”
“The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, and to slay such as be of upright conversation.”
But the oppressed will possess the land and enjoy great prosperity.
Evil men plot against the godly and viciously attack them.
The Lord laughs in disgust at them, for he knows that their day is coming.
Evil men draw their swords and prepare their bows, to bring down the oppressed and needy, and to slaughter those who are godly.
Their swords will pierce their own hearts, and their bows will be broken.
The little bit that a godly man owns is better than the wealth of many evil men,
for evil men will lose their power, but the LORD sustains the godly.
