'Malicious' in the Bible
“You must not spread a false report. Do not join the wicked to be a malicious witness.
Likewise, if anyone in hatred pushes a person or throws an object at him with malicious intent and he dies,
“But if anyone suddenly pushes a person without hostility or throws any object at him without malicious intent
“If a malicious witness testifies against someone accusing him of a crime,
“Keep an eye on Shimei son of Gera, the Benjaminite from Bahurim who is with you. He uttered malicious curses against me the day I went to Mahanaim. But he came down to meet me at the Jordan River, and I swore to him by the Lord: ‘I will never kill you with the sword.’
Malicious witnesses come forward;they question me about things I do not know.
The words of his mouth are malicious and deceptive;he has stopped acting wisely and doing good.
Even on his bed he makes malicious plans.He sets himself on a path that is not goodand does not reject evil.
The way of the Lord is a stronghold for the honorable,but destruction awaits the malicious.
A wicked person listens to malicious talk;a liar pays attention to a destructive tongue.
At that time, when you call, the Lord will answer;when you cry out, He will say, ‘Here I am.’If you get rid of the yoke among you,the finger-pointing and malicious speaking,
Wash the evil from your heart, Jerusalem,so that you will be delivered.How long will you harbormalicious thoughts within you?
