³ Their tongues sting like a snake;
    the venom of a viper drips from their lips. Interlude

⁴ They spit venom like deadly snakes;
    they are like cobras that refuse to listen,

¹³ “Their talk is foul, like the stench from an open grave.
    Their tongues are filled with lies.”
“Snake venom drips from their lips.”^[a]
14     “Their mouths are full of cursing and bitterness.”^[b]

³² For in the end it bites like a poisonous snake;
    it stings like a viper.
