- Ps 62:3-4 : 3 How long will ye imagine mischief{H8779)} against a man? ye shall be slain{H8792)} all of you: as a bowing{H8803)} wall shall ye be, and as a tottering{H8803)} fence. 4 They only consult{H8804)} to cast him down{H8687)} from his excellency: they delight{H8799)} in lies: they bless{H8762)} with their mouth, but they curse{H8762)} inwardly.

- Ps 64:2-8 : 2 Hide{H8686)} me from the secret counsel of the wicked{H8688)}; from the insurrection of the workers{H8802)} of iniquity: 3 Who whet{H8804)} their tongue like a sword, and bend{H8804)} their bows to shoot their arrows, even bitter words: 4 That they may shoot{H8800)} in secret at the perfect: suddenly do they shoot{H8686)} at him, and fear{H8799)} not. 5 They encourage{H8762)} themselves in an evil matter: they commune{H8762)} of laying snares privily{H8800)}; they say{H8804)}, Who shall see{H8799)} them? 6 They search out{H8799)} iniquities; they accomplish{H8804)} a diligent{H8794)} search: both the inward thought of every one of them, and the heart, is deep. 7 But God shall shoot{H8686)} at them with an arrow; suddenly shall they be wounded. 8 So they shall make their own tongue to fall{H8686)} upon themselves: all that see{H8802)} them shall flee away{H8709)}.
- Isa 59:4-7 : 4 None calleth for justice, nor any pleadeth for truth: they trust in vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity. 5 They hatch cockatrice' eggs, and weave the spider's web: he that eateth of their eggs dieth, and that which is crushed breaketh out into a viper. 6 Their webs shall not become garments, neither shall they cover themselves with their works: their works are works of iniquity, and the act of violence is in their hands. 7 Their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed innocent blood: their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity; wasting and destruction are in their paths.
- Jer 9:3-6 : 3 And they bend their tongues like their bow for lies: but they are not valiant for the truth upon the earth; for they proceed from evil to evil, and they know not me, saith the LORD. 4 Take ye heed every one of his neighbour, and trust ye not in any brother: for every brother will utterly supplant, and every neighbour will walk with slanders. 5 And they will deceive every one his neighbour, and will not speak the truth: they have taught their tongue to speak lies, and weary themselves to commit iniquity. 6 Thine habitation is in the midst of deceit; through deceit they refuse to know me, saith the LORD.
