If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause:

For their feet run to evil, and make haste to shed blood.

And they lay wait for their own blood; they lurk privily for their own lives.

A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood.

Wisdom hath built her house, she hath hewn out her seven pillars:

He that reproveth a scorner, getteth to himself shame: and he that rebuketh a wicked man getteth himself a blot.

The words of the wicked are to lie in wait for blood: but the mouth of the upright shall deliver them.

For the LORD will plead their cause, and spoil the soul of those that spoiled them.

For their redeemer is mighty; he will plead their cause with thee.

Through wisdom is a house built; and by understanding it is established:

Prepare thy work without, and make it fit for thyself in the field; and afterwards build thy house.

The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion.

A man that doeth violence to the blood of any person shall flee to the pit; let no man stay him.

The blood-thirsty hate the upright: but the just seek his soul.

Surely the churning of milk bringeth forth butter, and the wringing of the nose bringeth forth blood: so the forcing of wrath bringeth forth strife.

Open thy mouth, judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and needy.
