20 'Gainst those that were at peace with himhe hath put forth his hand:The covenant that he had made,by breaking he profan'd.
21 More smooth than butter were his words,while in his heart was war;His speeches were more soft than oil,and yet drawn swords they are.
22 Cast thou thy burden on the Lord,and he shall thee sustain;Yea, he shall cause the righteous manunmoved to remain.
23 But thou, O Lord my God, those menin justice shalt o'erthrow,And in destruction's dungeon darkat last shalt lay them low:The bloody and deceitful menshall not live half their days:But upon thee with confidenceI will depend always.
