'Violence' in the Bible
So are the ways of everyone who gains by violence;It takes away the life of its possessors.
Do not envy a man of violenceAnd do not choose any of his ways.
For they eat the bread of wickednessAnd drink the wine of violence.
Blessings are on the head of the righteous,But the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.
The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life,But the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.
From the fruit of a man’s mouth he enjoys good,But the desire of the treacherous is violence.
A man of violence entices his neighborAnd leads him in a way that is not good.
The violence of the wicked will drag them away,Because they refuse to act with justice.
For their minds devise violence,And their lips talk of trouble.
He cuts off his own feet and drinks violenceWho sends a message by the hand of a fool.
