'Violence' in the Bible
For they eat the bread of wickednessAnd drink the wine of violence.
Blessings are on the head of the righteous [the upright, those in right standing with God],But the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.
The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life and his words of wisdom are a source of blessing,But the mouth of the wicked conceals violence and evil.
From the fruit of his mouth a [wise] man enjoys good,But the desire of the treacherous is for violence.
He who assaults his father and chases away his motherIs a son who brings shame and disgrace.
The violence of the wicked will [return to them and] drag them away [like fish caught in a net],Because they refuse to act with justice.
For their minds plot violence,And their lips talk of trouble [for the innocent].
