Psalm 59:12

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

For the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips let them even be taken in their pride: and for cursing and lying which they speak.

But God shoots his arrow at them; they are wounded suddenly.

Return sevenfold into the lap of our neighbors the taunts with which they have taunted you, O Lord!

What shall be given to you, and what more shall be done to you, you deceitful tongue?

As for the head of those who surround me, let the mischief of their lips overwhelm them!

An evil man is ensnared by the transgression of his lips, but the righteous escapes from trouble.

A fool's mouth is his ruin, and his lips are a snare to his soul.

I tell you, on the day of judgment people will give account for every careless word they speak,

And all the people answered, "His blood be on us and on our children!"

In arrogance the wicked hotly pursue the poor; let them be caught in the schemes that they have devised.

if you are snared in the words of your mouth, caught in the words of your mouth,

The righteousness of the upright delivers them, but the treacherous are taken captive by their lust.

He loved to curse; let curses come upon him! He did not delight in blessing; may it be far from him!

there is swearing, lying, murder, stealing, and committing adultery; they break all bounds, and bloodshed follows bloodshed.

But they were urgent, saying, "He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, from Galilee even to this place."

He loved to curse; let curses come upon him! He did not delight in blessing; may it be far from him!

"Their mouth is full of curses and bitterness."
