"who sharpen their tongue like a sword, and aim their arrows, deadly words,"
— Psalms 64:3, World English Bible
“Who whet their tongue like a sword, and bend their bows to shoot their arrows, even bitter words:”
“Who have whet their tongue like a sword, And have aimed their arrows, even bitter words, ”
“They sharpen their tongues like a sword; they aim their arrow, a slanderous charge,”
“O hear my prayer: all flesh shall come to thee.”
“Who make their tongues sharp like a sword, and whose arrows are pointed, even bitter words;”
“Who whet their tongue like a sword, and bend their bows to shoot their arrows, even bitter words:”
Hear my voice, God, in my complaint. Preserve my life from fear of the enemy.
Hide me from the conspiracy of the wicked, from the noisy crowd of the ones doing evil;
who sharpen their tongue like a sword, and aim their arrows, deadly words,
to shoot innocent men from ambushes. They shoot at him suddenly and fearlessly.
They encourage themselves in evil plans. They talk about laying snares secretly. They say, "Who will see them?"
They plot injustice, saying, "We have made a perfect plan!" Surely man's mind and heart are cunning.
