20 He has aput forth his hands against those who bwere at peace with him;
He has broken his1 covenant.
He has broken his1 covenant.
21 aThe words of his mouth were smoother than butter,
But war was in his heart;
His words were softer than oil,
Yet they were drawn swords.
But war was in his heart;
His words were softer than oil,
Yet they were drawn swords.
22 aCast your burden on the Lord,
And bHe shall sustain you;
He shall never permit the righteous to be1 moved.
And bHe shall sustain you;
He shall never permit the righteous to be1 moved.
23 But You, O God, shall bring them down to the pit of destruction;
aBloodthirsty and deceitful men bshall not live out half their days;
But I will trust in You.
aBloodthirsty and deceitful men bshall not live out half their days;
But I will trust in You.
