Thematic Bible: The mouth of the wicked


Thematic Bible



Blessings are on the head of the righteous,
But the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.


The heart of the righteous ponders how to answer,
But the mouth of the wicked pours out evil things.

A rascally witness makes a mockery of justice,
And the mouth of the wicked spreads iniquity.

The words of the wicked lie in wait for blood,
But the mouth of the upright will deliver them.
