Psalm 55:21-23
New International Version
21 His talk is smooth as butter,(A)
yet war is in his heart;
his words are more soothing than oil,(B)
yet they are drawn swords.(C)
22 Cast your cares on the Lord
and he will sustain you;(D)
he will never let
the righteous be shaken.(E)
23 But you, God, will bring down the wicked
into the pit(F) of decay;
the bloodthirsty and deceitful(G)
will not live out half their days.(H)
But as for me, I trust in you.(I)
Psalm 55:21-23
King James Version
21 The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war was in his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet were they drawn swords.
22 Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.
23 But thou, O God, shalt bring them down into the pit of destruction: bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days; but I will trust in thee.
