Proverbs 26:18
Like a madman who throws
Firebrands, arrows, and death,
Genesis 49:23
“The [skilled] archers have bitterly attacked and provoked him;
They have shot [at him] and harassed him.
Proverbs 7:23
Until an arrow pierced his liver [with a mortal wound];
Like a bird fluttering straight into the net,
He did not know that it would cost him his life.
Proverbs 25:18
Like a club and a sword and a piercing arrow
Is a man who testifies falsely against his neighbor (acquaintance).
Isaiah 50:11
Listen carefully, all you who kindle your own fire [devising your own man-made plan of salvation],
Who surround yourselves with torches,
Walk by the light of your [self-made] fire
And among the torches that you have set ablaze.
But this you will have from My hand:
You will lie down in [a place of] torment.
