Psalm 64:3
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
who sharpen their tongues like swords and aim their bitter words like arrows,
In context
1 Hear, O God, my voice of complaint; preserve my life from dread of the enemy.
2 Hide me from the scheming of the wicked, from the mob of workers of iniquity,
3 who sharpen their tongues like swords and aim their bitter words like arrows,
4 ambushing the innocent in seclusion, shooting suddenly, without fear.
5 They hold fast to their evil purpose; they speak of hiding their snares. “Who will see them?” they say.
