'Bloodshed' in the Bible
Shimei said while cursing him, "Go out, go out, [you] {man of bloodshed}, [you] {man of wickedness}.
You destroy speakers of lies. {A man of bloodshed} and deceit Yahweh abhors.
for he [who] {avenges bloodshed} remembers them. He does not forget the distressed cry of [the] afflicted.
Do not destroy me with [the] sinners, nor my life with men of bloodshed,
Deliver me from the guilt of bloodshed, O God, the God of my salvation; [then] my tongue will sing aloud [of] your righteousness.
But you, O God, you will bring them down to [the] pit of corruption. [The] men of bloodshed and deceit will not live half their days, but I will trust you.
Deliver me from workers of iniquity, and from men of bloodshed save me.
For the vineyard of Yahweh of hosts [is] the house of Israel, and the man of Judah [is] the plantation of his delight. [And] he waited for justice, but look! Bloodshed! For righteousness, but look! A cry of distress!
He who walks [in] righteousness and speaks uprightness, who rejects [the] gain of extortion, who {refuses} bribe, who stops up his ears from hearing {bloodshed} and shuts his eyes from seeing evil.
Swearing and lying, murdering and stealing, and adultery break out, and bloodshed follows bloodshed.
