Psalm 64:3
New Living Translation
3 They sharpen their tongues like swords
and aim their bitter words like arrows.
Psalm 64:3
Easy-to-Read Version
3 They sharpen their tongues to use like swords.
They aim their poisonous words like arrows.
Psalm 64:3-6
The Message
2-6 Don’t let them find me—
the conspirators out to get me,
Using their tongues as weapons,
flinging poison words,
poison-tipped arrow-words.
They shoot from ambush,
shoot without warning,
not caring who they hit.
They keep fit doing calisthenics
of evil purpose,
They keep lists of the traps
they’ve secretly set.
They say to each other,
“No one can catch us,
no one can detect our perfect crime.”
The Detective detects the mystery
in the dark of the cellar heart.
Psalm 64:3
