Psalm 101:5-8
English Standard Version
5 Whoever slanders his neighbor (A)secretly
I will (B)destroy.
Whoever has a (C)haughty look and an (D)arrogant heart
I will not endure.
6 I will look with favor on the faithful in the land,
that they may dwell with me;
he who walks in (E)the way that is blameless
shall minister to me.
7 No one who (F)practices deceit
shall dwell in my house;
no one who utters lies
shall (G)continue before my eyes.
8 (H)Morning by morning I will destroy
all the wicked in the land,
(I)cutting off all (J)the evildoers
from (K)the city of the Lord.

English Standard Version
9 But David answered Rechab and Baanah his brother, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, (A)“As the Lord lives, (B)who has redeemed my life out of every adversity, 10 (C)when one told me, ‘Behold, Saul is dead,’ and thought he was bringing good news, (D)I seized him and killed him at Ziklag, which was the reward I gave him for his news. 11 How much more, when wicked men have killed a righteous man in his own house on his bed, shall I not now (E)require his blood at your hand and destroy you from the earth?” 12 And David commanded his young men, and they killed them and cut off their hands and feet and hanged them beside the pool at Hebron. But they took the head of Ish-bosheth and buried it (F)in the tomb of Abner at Hebron.

Isaiah 28:27-28
English Standard Version
27 Dill is not threshed with a threshing sledge,
nor is a cart wheel rolled over cumin,
but dill is beaten out with a stick,
and cumin with a rod.
28 Does one crush grain for bread?
No, he does not thresh it forever;[a]
when he drives his cart wheel over it
with his horses, he does not crush it.
