His mischief shall return upon his own head, And his violence shall come down upon his own pate.

Jehovah trieth the righteous; But the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.

Destroy, O Lord, and divide their tongue; For I have seen violence and strife in the city.

Nay, in heart ye work wickedness; Ye weigh out the violence of your hands in the earth.

He will redeem their soul from oppression and violence; And precious will their blood be in his sight:

Therefore pride is as a chain about their neck; Violence covereth them as a garment.

Have respect unto the covenant; For the dark places of the earth are full of the habitations of violence.
